Leonhard's Defense Overhaul | Buffalo Bills News

The Buffalo Bills’ defense is in dire need of overhaul after a brutal playoff collapse, surrendering over 33 points per game and failing to generate pressure or turnovers. New defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard, a former NFL safety, is zeroing in on two critical fixes: tackling fundamentals and a smarter, more aggressive pass rush. Last year’s run defense was abysmal, allowing over five yards per carry due to missed tackles, while the pass rush barely registered one sack in two playoff games. Leonhard’s challenge? Find the right balance between aggression and discipline, using his deep coaching experience to mold a defense that can finally stop the bleeding before the season even begins.
