I don't think it's as big of an effect on a defense. If you look at all of the great defenses, they have great talent. Period. Defense is a more visceral thing.
Even the Bears 46 defense was named after a safety (Fencik, I think it was?), and worked primarily because of 1)a dominant pass rush and 2) the particular abilities of specific players. Same with the Tampa 2. Same with the 2000 Ravens. It goes on, and on.
The Bills defense looked really good until Von Miller got hurt and other injuries piled up.
Frazier knows they're not going to be as good this year, and if they tank, it hurts his career opportunities.

Frazier’s contract expired at the end of this month. I think he was nudged out the door. They are putting a spin on it by claiming he is “choosing” to leave. I think they were pretty healthy in earlier years when Mahomes dropped 38 & 42 on them in the Playoffs. Those Buffalo defenses in 2020 & 2021 were highly ranked in the regular season.
