Buffalo Bills: 3 bold predictions for defense entering the 2023 season

Greg Rousseau records 10 or more sacks

The third-year pass rusher is entering a crucial year in his rookie contract with the Bills. He has been a playmaker the last two seasons, both against the pass and the run. One benefit that he has had is being able to learn from Von Miller on the opposite side, and now he will not only have Miller but also Leonard Floyd who played with Miller on the Los Angeles Rams when they won the Super Bowl in 2022. 

Rousseau ended the 2022 season with 8 sacks and has been able to help collapse the pocket on the offense. His rookie season, he did not have a veteran to learn from. Last season, Miller tore his ACL on Thanksgiving which made Rousseau the main guy to gameplan around on the edge. Heading into this season, he has Floyd on the other side who has nine or more sacks the last three seasons and Miller will be returning at some point this season. 

With the presence of Floyd and Miller on the other side, Rousseau has an opportunity to go one-on-one with a blocker and beat them inside or out to get the sack. Greg Rousseau knows that the Bills will have the option to pick up his fifth-year option after this season and he will earn it with ten or more sacks without a doubt.
