New on SI: 10 Best Pittsburgh Steelers Defensive Players of All Time

Image
These are the top 10 Pittsburgh Steelers defensive players of all time. The Steelers have always been known for tough defense and these are the men that built that reputation. Linebacker James Harrison is one of the best defensive players in Steelers' history. There are two ways to win a football game: score more points than your opponent or prevent them from scoring more points than you. For the last fifty years, the Steelers have excelled at the latter. During the ‘70s, the Steelers' Steel Curtain defense was a 4–3 scheme with a dominant front four, three athletic linebackers and hard-hitting defensive backs. The ‘90s ushered in the Blitzburgh era, marked by hyper-aggressive linebackers who relentlessly ran down quarterbacks. During the Super Bowl years of the mid-2000s, the addition of a roving, tenacious, strong safety made the Steelers defense even more dangerous. The Steelers defense has ranked in the top five for points allowed in a season 17 times since 1972. Dur...

New on SI: Atlanta's Charles Harris Ejected After Unsportsmanlike Hit on Teddy Bridgewater

Bridgewater took a blow to the head while being sacked, causing him to leave the game. He eventually returned in the fourth quarter. Late in the third quarter of the Panthers' Thursday Night Football game against the Falcons, Carolina quarterback Teddy Bridgewater suffered a blow to the head from Atlanta pass rusher Charles Harris. Bridgewater exited the game and was replaced by backup P.J. Walker, though he eventually returned in the fourth quarter. Harris was penalized and ejected from the game. The penalty occurred on third down and extended Carolina's drive, which ended with a 39-yard field goal from Joey Slye, cutting Atlanta's lead to 19-17. To that point, Bridgewater was 10-for-15 for 112 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed three times for 22 yards.
