Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota was sacked five times against the Bills, and he's now been sacked 22 times in five games on the season.

Saffold acknowledged some of the sacks have been on him. He blamed poor technique, and a new scheme with an especially mobile quarterback after playing his first nine NFL seasons with the Rams.

"It's slightly technique, but just overall with the way the offense plays, kind of the way Marcus plays, it's a serious adjustment," he said, "and just having to take care of the one-on-ones a little bit better. There are some times where you just get beat and you have to give it to the defense, but I am used to giving up one sack per year and I've had a couple of games where I've had two sacks. For me, that is just not good enough."

Saffold, who has started 115 games in his NFL career, was regarded as one of the top guards in free agency this offseason. He started every game last season for the Rams, the NFL's second-ranked offense in 2018.

On Sunday, the Titans return to action in Denver against the Broncos.

Saffold said he's confident he'll get his issues corrected.
