Saints pass rush has a lot of work to do despite fixing their sack problem

Fans clamored to see the New Orleans Saints bring down the quarterback more frequently. And you got what you asked for to start the season. Carl Granderson is tied for the league lead in sacks, and the Saints find themselves in a three way tie for second place as a team.

It's hard to complain about eight sacks through two games. The problem is the Saints also have the fifth least quarterback pressures in the league, per Next Gen Stats. That's very easy to complain about. When watching the game, it can actually overshadow sacks from earlier in the game.
