St. Louis Rams

Best pass rush over last five seasons

No team has had more sacks than the Bills over the last two years, a fact that helps them to the top of our fantasy defense rankings. But if you want to use a larger timeframe in supporting your team defense selection, the St. Louis Rams have been getting after the quarterback better for longer.

Over the last five seasons, the Rams' 227 sacks is 19 more than any other team. They've had at least 39 sacks in all five of those years; only Miami has also done that (but they haven't been over 42 in any of them). If you're in a sack-driven scoring system, the Rams look like an awfully safe choice.

Team sacks over the last five seasons are presented below.
