Obviously that is easier said than done but you can really mask secondary deficiencies with a deadly pass rush. Having an interior rush is really beneficial to helping the edge thrive.

It takes more than just a pass rush.  The old axiom of being strong up the middle still has value.  Teams that are defensively built tough at DT, ILB and Safety have a greater chance of not only stopping the run, but flushing the QB to the edge rushers, as well as taking away the middle of the field on pass routes.
