Sacks and takeaways long have been the hallmarks of the Steelers defense, and pressure on the passer had a lot to do with that unit’s contribution to the team’s decisive win over the Bengals at Heinz Field.
The Steelers sacked Andy Dalton three times, pressured him five times and intercepted backup Bruce Gradkowski once. James Harrison (http://www.steelersuniverse.com/team/roster/james-harrison/f955db12-de79-47a3-9c61-d50c2583d49b/) keyed the pass rush with his second three-sack game in a calendar month, and he also contributed six tackles for a defense that limited the Bengals to 232 total net yards. With that performance, Harrison raised his season total to eight sacks, and he is second on the team to LaMarr Woodley (http://www.steelersuniverse.com/team/roster/lamarr-woodley/ca7b64f1-170e-449e-a835-4851e785246d/), who has nine.
Harrison is the Steelers Digest Player of the Week..............
