The Pittsburgh Steelers have the best pass rushing defensive line in the NFL. Their defense comes into Baltimore with a league-best 26 sacks. Watt, who leads the team with 5.5 sacks, leads the entire NFL in ESPN’s “Pass Rush Win Rate” (PRWR) metric. Pass Rush Win Rate measures “how often a pass-rusher is able to beat his block within 2.5 seconds.” Watt is joined on PRWR leaderboards by Tuitt, who ranks 6th among defensive tackles. With Watt and Tuitt leading the way, the Steelers rank 1st in the NFL in Team PRWR.
