Tomlin On Greatness Of 2019 Defense: ‘Those Stories Are Written In December And January’

The Pittsburgh Steelers have the potential to become just the second team in the common era of the game to lead the league in both sacks and turnovers. The only other team to have done it before was the 1974 Steelers team, their first of six Super Bowl-winning efforts.

With three games remaining, they are up to 48 sacks on the season. They are almost sure to reach 50 for the third consecutive season, and have a shot at setting a new franchise record. They would need to average three sacks per game in order to do so.
