T.J. Watt-Arthur Moats sack party drives Steelers' win over Giants

No matter how many new cornerbacks the Pittsburgh Steelers draft, the front seven still sets the tone for their defense.

Rookie T.J. Watt and veteran Arthur Moats got that message across in Friday's 20-12 preseason win over the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium, abusing a maligned New York offensive line for five combined sacks. Watt flashed athleticism with two sacks on his first four NFL plays, and Moats gobbled up three more quarterback takedowns along with an interception.

This production came from the Steelers' backups at outside linebacker (assuming James Harrison starts alongside Bud Dupree).
