The Buffalo Bills have plenty of depth along the defensive line, and head coach Sean McDermott and defensive coordinator/assistant head coach Leslie Frazier aren’t afraid to use it. The Bills rarely allow defensive linemen to exceed 60% of the team’s defensive snap total, choosing to deploy a rotation of fresh players.
Now, in some ways, this is a good thing, as it theoretically allows for Buffalo to have an advantage late in games when their players are more rested than the offensive linemen lined up on the other side of the line of scrimmage. However, this also means that Buffalo will sometimes put inferior players out there in big scenarios, as the team’s backups are not as talented as the starting group.
