Entering Sunday’s matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Philadelphia Eagles, there was a lot of attention focused on the marquee matchup in the trenches between Eagles All-Pro RT and future Hall of Famer Lane Johnson, and Steelers All-Pro OLB and future Hall of Famer T.J. Watt.

It was star against star, the best of the best matching up on an island.

As expected, Watt had an impact on the game in a major way, but Johnson won his fair share of reps and had a great game as well, helping the Eagles roll to a 27-13 win over the Steelers.
