Can the Steelers stop Myles Garrett?

Myles Garrett has been celebrated in his short career. He is already one of the elite pass rushers in the league. Garrett was the number one pick out of Texas A&M in the 2017 draft and has lived up to the hype. In my opinion, he is the best player on the Browns.

The Steelers shuffled up their offensive line against the Rams to accommodate Aaron Donald. They might want to do the same thing with Myles Garrett. Matt Feiler did a great job with Aaron Donald, and so it might be beneficial if they had him move outside and match up against Myles Garrett.

Matt Feiler has spent the majority of the season at right tackle, and so there is plenty of familiarities there. That position would match up with Myles Garrett and give Ramon Foster the ability to slide back into the left guard role. He is still recovering from a concussion, but my best guess is he will be ready to go.

One thing to consider as well is that the Steelers may want to put double teams on Myles Garrett. The rest of Cleveland’s defensive line is not as threatening, and so it is essential to focus on containing Myles Garrett. Great teams are able to stifle critical players.
