The Pittsburgh Steelers are on a well-documented five game winning streak, and there are some outsiders who might be wondering what is going on which has caused such a drastic change after a dreadful 1-2-1 start. The answer? The team is winning the battle of the trenches.
When talking about the battle of the trenches, the main talking point is about the sack stats for the Steelers. The offensive lines ability to keep players from sacking Ben Roethlisberger, and the defense’s ability to get to the opposing quarterback.
Check out the stats up to Week 10, per Dom Rinelli of the Steelers Public Relations team:
