Vance Joseph’s Broncos defense is dialing up the pressure, and producing plenty of sacks: “It’s a little bit contagious”

In Denver’s 24-7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers last week, the Broncos generated sacks from anyone and anywhere.

In the first quarter, Denver had Baron Browning, Drew Sanders, Jonathon Cooper and Delarrin Turner-Yell on the edges, while inside linebacker Alex Singleton manned the middle behind defensive lineman Zach Allen. As Justin Herbert dropped back, Singleton charged up the middle and chased down the Chargers’ star quarterback before sacking him near the sideline.

Los Angeles faced a third-and-10 with 12:13 to go in the second when Singleton stormed into the backfield again. This time, his pressure set up Allen to swoop in from the right side and sack Herbert.
