When Harrison demands the attention of more than one blocker I'll believe he worries the opposing QBs. I think Flacco is probably more worried about Worilds than Harrison since Worilds is the one consistently collapsing the pocket and pressuring the QB the last two games.

Be careful what you wish for. The sacks were nice, but watch all the plays. He's most times easily contained by one guy and has no impact. As his snap counts have gone up, the defense has hemorrhaged yards and points, averaging 400 and 30 the past three games. Incidentally, he played by far his fewest against Jacksonville (21) and the D played their best game.
Harrison isn't what he used to be, but 2 sacks and a forced fumble is pretty good days work. The fans that are so intent on getting young guys on the field regardless of preparedness or capability is becoming mind boggling. The Steelers want to win games this year, they aren't worried about next year at this moment, they are in the hunt and can solidify that position with a win this Sunday. If an increased snap count for Harrison gets them there, then I don't understand the hate for having him on the field.
Even a loss doesn't eliminate them from the playoffs, the Steelers are going to try and win games, period.

I think it's OK to give both LB's credit.
It's not like they play for different teams.Steelers 27

I still believe it's no incidence as JH has gotten better so has Worilds. Just as JH made Woodley what he was.Comment
