Myles Garrett Has the Bengals' Number
1 year agoCleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett has a history of success against his Week 1 opponent, the Cincinnati Bengals. Last season, Garrett made 3.5 sacks and 7 QB hits in his two games against the Bengals. In his career, he has made 11.0 sacks in nine games against the Bengals. While the Bengals' offensive line has improved in recent years, it is still only average at best. Moreover, Bengals QB Joe Burrow goes down more often than other quarterbacks facing the same amount of pressure. His sack-to-pressure rate has typically been among the top half of the league. Myles Garrett and his new teammate on the other side of the defensive line, Za'Darius Smith, are both quality starts this week.
