The Steelers had one of their best outings on the season in Monday night’s victory over the Browns. The defense limited the Browns to just 232 total yards and more importantly, 14 points.
The run defense and coverage on the back end both held their own, but the team’s nine sacks was the difference-maker. Per usual, T.J. Watt made the biggest impact in that department. Watt had four sacks on Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield, all but cementing his case for NFL Defensive Player of the Year.
Fellow teammate Cameron Heyward weighed in on Watt’s case for DPOY.
