Steelers.com is all over it.
Harrison finished the season with a team record 16 sacks and also forced 7 fumbles. Another factor that can’t be overlooked, is his overall gamechanging ability. He come up with big plays in big situations.
Case in point: the first game against Baltimore.
Ben had just hit Holmes for a 33-yard touchdown and the defense needed to come up with a stop to give the offense a chance to put us in the lead. On the first play from scrimmage, Harrison sacks Flacco and forces a fumble that Woodley returns for a touchdown. Gamechanger.
