The Pittsburgh Steelers are still looking for their first win of the 2019 NFL season. Fortunately, linebacker Bud Dupree is doing his part to make it happen.

Dupree managed to explode off the edge to register a crucial strip-sack on quarterback Andy Dalton to give his offense the ball back before halftime, via PFF:

This was Dupree's first sack of the season, and it certainly came at a good time for Pittsburgh. Although they were unable to capitalize with a touchdown, they did manage to extend the lead 10-3 at the half.

Both teams have gone winless through the first three weeks of the season. Not surprisingly, there has not been much offense going on in the first half thanks to plays like this. As a result, this AFC North showdown may ultimately come down to which defense is able to generate some more plays and put their offense in the best position to score.
