‘The Modern-Day MJ And Pippen?’ GMFB’s Jason McCourty Says T.J. Watt-Alex Highsmith Duo In Rare Air

Throughout Sunday’s 17-10 win by the Pittsburgh Steelers over the Baltimore Ravens in another key AFC North matchup that marked the sixth win in the last seven matchups for the Black and Gold, the outside linebacker duo of T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith absolutely wrecked Baltimore’s offensive tackles.

Highsmith set a career-high with 11 pressures in the game, tying the NFL’s best mark through five games this season. He had a pivotal strip sack of Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson late in the fourth quarter, leading to a recovery by Watt, which set the Steelers up for a 42-yard Chris Boswell field goal to make it a 17-10 game.
