GREAT Defensive front page article

[Drink IRON City]

Talks about the 5 BEST Steelers player single season. They name the five and give an honorable mention, which is well deserved.

It is a front page article but I felt it deserved a spot here, close to our hearts (defensive minded).

Great article!

for some reason it reminds me of that old joke

How many Steeler fans does it take to change a light bulb?

None. we just sit around and talk about how great the old one was.

I am here all week folks. try the Veal.

No TJ?

No TJ?

The year he got the sack record alone. Sorry TJ Watt is the sole single season sack record holder. To me that is the greatest single season by a Steelers defender. Pure dominance after two years of being screwed in the DPOY voting.

I would say it's pretty easy. The guy who did the biggest thing. I'm not saying Watt is better than them. I'm saying that season was the most dominant of any Steelers player.

I feel like he was pretty good against the run and his coverage responsibilities are minimal.
Anyone unsure watch his 2021 highlights. It's pretty unbelievable. There are about 6 strip sacks where if someone was Johnny on the spot it's at least a recovery if not a scoop and score.

A Steelers Mount Rushmore is practically impossible but if Watt stats healthy he will be in the discussion.

100% agree.

some teams have 1 guy that they can all circle around as their best defensive player. Ray Lewis comes to mind. Ronnie Lott also. Steeler fans have many to argue about and choose from when trying to name the best
