Actually we finished dead last in sacks in 2014 and still had a top 5 pass defense.

And I could post a long list of teams where the opposite is true.  Lots of teams get a bunch of sacks and still have weak pass defenses.

I am not saying that pressure doesn't help the pass defense, but as the NFL becomes more of a passing league teams are throwing more short quick routes that don't give the defense time to get to the QB.
