Pittsburgh’s ‘Badger BLT’ Must Keep Eating
Watt pass rush BadgerEarlier this year, J.J. Watt quipped on the CBS broadcast about the “Badger sandwich” after T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig, both Wisconsin alums, combined for a sack. Watt should take it one step further. With DT Keeanu Benton coming off a career game, the Steelers should make a Badger BLT.
The acronym fits. “B” for Benton. “T” for T.J. And the “L” for “Lherbig.” It’s a silent L – just go with it.
No matter what you call it, they’re key cogs of Pittsburgh’s pass rush. Watt will always be the opposition’s starting point. He’s the player every offensive coordinator enters prep week planning around. Solve him, and your team has a chance to win.
