The sight of Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt lined up ready to pounce at the snap of the football is not comforting for any NFL quarterback.
It was a common sight that Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins saw throughout the Week 1 18-10 Steelers win, and it was a common sight for Cousins seeing Watt on top of him for a sack, though just one counted due to penalties.
Despite the limited (compared to what it should have been) stat line from Watt that included four tackles, one sack, one tackle for loss against the run, one fumble recovery and two quarterback hits, Cousins spoke glowingly of the Steelers star Wednesday during an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show.
