Yahoo Sports NFL on Malik Willis

Willis faced league-high 56.8% pressure rate; 49ers' efficient pass rush poses matchup risk.

Willis faced pressure on 56.8% of his dropbacks in Week 1, the highest pressure percentage allowed in the NFL. The 49ers blitzed at the second-lowest rate (10.3%) but generated pressure at 37.9%, suggesting they can contain Willis without heavy blitzing; Miami's defensive strategy of staying in base defense (68.3%, highest in NFL) will leave Willis vulnerable to pressure up the middle as the 49ers attack base looks with passing on early downs.
