## Resource

T.J. Watt delivered a monster performance in the Steelers’ season opener, torching the Falcons with an interception TD, two sacks, and relentless pressure—helping Pittsburgh win 21-13. The defense as a whole was dominant, led by Alex Highsmith (2 sacks) and Cam Heyward (3 pass deflections), proving they’re built to dismantle offenses at the edges. New England’s Mike Vrabel knows the danger all too well, citing Watt and Heyward’s five-year track record of forcing turnovers and disrupting QBs. The Patriots, reeling after a loss to Seattle and missing key WR A.J. Brown, face a daunting task at home—but turnovers could be the difference. Meanwhile, Watt’s off-field excitement is mounting: he and his wife are expecting their second child. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
