Sheriff ’s office Throwback Thursday: Pomeroy Bend Bridge
investigating
two incidents
By Sarah Hawley

com

POMEROY — The
Meigs County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce, with the
assistance of the Ohio
Bureau of Criminal
Investigation (BCI), is
investigating a pair of
recent incidents.
According to a news
release, on Sunday at
11:23 p.m., the sheriff’s
ofﬁce received a call
from a residence on
Pageville Road stating that gunshots had
been heard in the area,
as well as someone
screaming.
At 11:49 p.m. a second call was received
from a female at 36708
Pageville Road stating
that someone had been

shooting at her residence.
While on the way to
the scene, Deputy Stacy
located a white 1998
Chevy truck crashed
about a half mile away
from the residence
where the second call
came from. The driver
had reportedly ﬂed the
scene.
Deputy Stacy had the
vehicle impounded for
further investigation as
ammunition was reportedly located inside the
vehicle.
At the residence,
shell casings were
reportedly found in the
roadway near the intersection of Pageville
Road and Horner Hill
Road.

Convicted drug dealer
to be resentenced
after appeal
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@aimmediamidwest.com

POMEROY — A Columbus man who was sentenced to 32 years in prison following drug convictions in 2016 will be resentenced after a decision
by the 4th District Court of Appeals.
Meigs County Prosecutor James K. Stanley
explained that Jacques Goerges K. Daboni, 27,
was initially sentenced to 32 years in prison after
being convicted of multiple counts of trafﬁcking in
heroin, possession of heroin and engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity.
Daboni ﬁled an appeal claiming eight total
assignments of error in the case. The ruling from
the court of appeals afﬁrmed the decision of
the common please court in all but one of those
assignments of error.
Stanley said the lone error the court of appeals
agreed with involved the merging of one count of
possession of heroin, a second-degree felony, with
the trafﬁcking in heroin charge. That error will
result in a resentencing, which has not yet been
set.
The sentence on the possession charge was
eight years, meaning the new sentence, when it
takes place, should go from 32 years to 24 years in
prison, said Stanley.
Stanley contends that it is the opinion of the
state that the charge should not merge as the
second-degree felony possession charge dealt with
a “ball of heroin” which was in the upstairs of the
residence and had not yet been processed for to be
sold. Additionally, there was heroin located downstairs in the residence which had been processed.
A resentencing date has not been scheduled.

OBITUARIES

Pomeroy Bend Bridge
By Jordan Pickens
Special to the Sentinel

November 12, 1928,
the Pomeroy Bend
Bridge, or as it came to
be known, the PomeroyMason Bridge, opened to
trafﬁc and would serve
the people of Meigs
County, Ohio, and Mason
County, West Virginia,
until January 31, 2009.
But this bridge served
much more than the
people of these respective
counties; it connected the
large cities of the north
and the south, opened
opportunity for growth,
and also required military
enforcement for crowd
control during its opening. Our bridge of the
past was once a bridge of
the future.
While the bridge was
built and opened in 1928,
it has its origins dating as
early as 1914 with W.A.
Compton and W.F. Reed
ﬁlling leadership roles in
promoting a joint bridge
and highway project.
Compton and Reed garnered support from Ohio
towns the proposed highway would run through.
Support eventually led to
interest in West Virginia,
which in turn, led to
the passage of the Good
Roads Amendment on
Nov. 2, 1920. This allotted over 85 million in
West Virginia state bonds
to ﬁnance the construction and maintenance of
a state road system that
would at least connect
the various county seats
of the state.
During Compton and
Reed’s tenure promoting
U.S. 33 and the Pomeroy
Bend Bridge, the pair
was contacted by Ralph
and Frank Dravo of
the Dravo Contracting
Company of Pittsburgh,
leading to ﬁnal plans
for the construction of a
bridge. This “million dollar bridge” would have a
cantilever span of 1,185
feet, a channel span 665
feet long, and road length
just shy of a half mile.
The length of the steel
structure would measure
1847.75 feet on four concrete piers and a height
from the center span
to the river of 97 feet
above the water at pool
stage. Dravo Contracting Company designed
the bridge, and it was
constructed by Mount
Vernon Bridge Company
of Mount Vernon, Ohio.
The bridge was originally
owned by The PomeroyMason Bridge Company,
a subsidiary of Dravo
Contracting Company. In
1939, the State of Ohio
acquired ownership of the
bridge.
After the concrete
piers were poured, the
ﬁrst steel on the struc-

ture was placed in June
of 1928 and the steel
structures on both sides
of the river were connected in the center
on August 22, 1928.
According to Ervin’s
Pioneer History of
Meigs County,
The masonry and concrete work took eight
months, and the painting
and general conditioning after the steel work
was ﬁnished required
two months, making just
a year in the complete
erecting of the imposing structure… just two
months after the ﬁrst
steel was laid, making
a record for Ohio River
bridge building… conceded to be the Ohio Valley’s
ﬁnest bridge.
According to the Nov.
11, 1928, Sunday issue
of The Athens Messenger, “60 [Ohio] National
Guardsmen under the
command of Capt. Harry
Bennett will keep the
avenues of communication open and cars moving throughout the day.”
To accommodate the
huge inﬂux of spectators
from all over the region,
cars were forbidden to
park along Second Street
in Pomeroy, and this was
enforced with “military
precision” to allow delegates to stage here for
the opening ceremonies.
The bridge was opened
to allow spectators to
ﬁnd ample parking in
the vacant lots and the
broad streets of Mason
City, West Virginia, and
overseen by troopers of
the West Virginia State
Police.
A delegation traveled
the length of the new U.S.
Route 33 - Blue and Gray
Trail from Columbus,
Ohio, to Ripley, West
Virginia, to mark the
historic occasion of the
opening of the bridge.
Ohio Governor A. Victor
Donahey and West Virginia Governor Howard
M. Gore, as well as U.S.
Senator Simeon D. Fess
and other distinguished
guests, spoke at the opening of the Pomeroy Bend
Bridge. Spectators ﬁlled
the bridge with foot trafﬁc and the vacant lots on
both sides of the bridge
to take part in the opening ceremonies. Before
and after the ceremonies,
the bridge was opened

Daily Sentinel

toll free for its ﬁrst day of
trafﬁc.
The Pomeroy Bend
Bridge was said to connect the principal cites of
Ohio, Michigan, West Virginia, Virginia, and North
Carolina. Pomeroy served
as a “hub of a gigantic
wheel of good roads to a
commercial betterment of
the city by direct routes
meeting here throughout
Ohio,” said the Sunday
Messenger. The Pomeroy
Bend Bridge linked the
Great Lakes to the Tidewaters of Virginia and
was the terminus connecting Detroit, Michigan, to Miami, Florida.
The Pomeroy Bend
Bridge replaced the
CHAMPION NO. 3 ferryboat in 1928. After
the bridge opened, the
former Pomeroy-Mason
ferry went on to serve
as a ferryboat in Proctorville, Ohio. The same
year the Pomeroy Bend
Bridge opened to trafﬁc,
the Silver Bridge opened
downriver, connecting
Gallipolis, Ohio, and
Point Pleasant, West
Virginia. The Pomeroy
Bend Bridge discontinued
charging a toll in 1949,
and the toll houses on the
West Virginia side of the
bridge were demolished.
The bridge underwent
major rehabilitation to
the structure in 1976
which caused it to close
to trafﬁc and another ferryboat was brought in for
the duration of the construction.
The bridge continued
to serve as the U.S. 33
connector until 2003,
when the U.S. 33 relocation in Meigs County
was completed and the
U.S. 33 designation was
moved onto the William
S. Ritchie, Jr., Bridge
connecting Portland,
Ohio, and Ravenswood,
West Virginia. The
Pomeroy Bend Bridge
was demolished at 8:49
a.m. on April 21, 2009,
after 80 years of service.
The Ohio pier plaque
is in the archives of the
Meigs County Historical
Society, and the West
Virginia pier plaque is in
the archives of the Point
Pleasant River Museum.

RHONDA ELAINE TACKETT
Rhonda Elaine Tackett, 63, was called home
to Heaven on Oct. 9,
2018, following a sevenmonth illness. Rhonda
was born on Dec. 13,
1954, in Mason, W.Va.,
the daughter of Prentice
and Carol (Hart) Hess.
She was a 1973
graduate of Loudonville High School, and
worked as a cosmetologist for many years; she
went on to work in
home health care and
studied at North Central State College. She
was an avid reader who
loved to be surrounded
by books, and enjoyed
running a successful
home crafting business
with her daughter for
many years. She was a
devoted wife, mother,
grandmother, and
daughter, a loving sister
and aunt, and a loyal
and trustworthy friend.
Rhonda was a strong,
courageous, honest, and
independent woman
of deep faith. She was
a practical realist who
loved her family and
friends passionately,
and she will forever be
remembered for her
sense of humor and
laughter. Aside from
being with her children
and grandchildren, two
of her greatest joys were
spending time at the
ancestral Hess farm on
Cherry Ridge where
she loved to admire
the trees and walk the
property, and vacations
on the beach in North
Carolina where she
spent long hours watching the ocean.
She is survived by
her daughter, Jennifer

(Scott) Richardson of
Perrysville, Ohio; her
son, Matthew Tackett
of Lucas, Ohio; her
beloved grandchildren
Evan, Zackery, Caleb,
Sean, Kate, and Lillian;
her mother, Carol Hess
of Perrysville, Ohio;
sisters, Sondra (Dean)
Sexton of Tuppers
Plains, Ohio, and Lori
Hess of Columbus,
Ohio; two nieces, and
many aunts, uncles,
cousins, and friends
who celebrate in her
amazing life and wonderful memory. Also
surviving are her stepchildren, David (Vicky)
Tackett, Vicki Schober,
Stephanie Tackett,
and her lifelong friend
Vickie Arnholt.
She was preceded in
death by her husband
Stephen Tackett in 1995
and her father Prentice
B. Hess in 2005.
Per Rhonda’s request,
a private burial will be
held at Cherry Ridge
Cemetery, Pomeroy,
Ohio. Because she loved
to be the life of the
party, her children will
host a celebration of life
at a later date. They ask
guests to wear something blue in remembrance of their mother
and to bring a favorite
memory to hang on the
branches of her Tree of
Life.
In lieu of ﬂowers, the
family requests that you
make a contribution
to your favorite charity, plant a tree, or pay
a good deed forward.

memory or watch her

NATIONAL WOMEN’S SMALL BUSINESS MONTH

SBA recognizes the women entrepreneurs
WASHINGTON – The U.S.
Small Business Administration
is recognizing National Women’s Small Business Month and
the countless women small
business owners who have pursued their passion and taken
the leap into entrepreneurship.
Women are a driving force in
the nation’s economy, starting
most new businesses. They
own 9.9 million companies that
employ more than eight million
people and provide $264 billion
in wages to employees.
“I’m really excited about the
great milestones celebrated
on behalf of women business
owners in our nation, and the

strides continuing to be made
in their interest,” SBA Administrator Linda McMahon said.
“At the SBA, we are championing women entrepreneurs who
still face many barriers. We
can do more by providing tools
and resources to create or grow
a small business and employ
more Americans.”
The growing number of
women entrepreneurs has not
happened by accident. A major
contributor to the growth of
women-owned small businesses
is legislation that targeted the
creation of resources and networks for women. This year the
SBA also celebrates a milestone

of 30 years since the passage of
the Women’s Business Ownership Act (H.R. 5050), which
was aimed at leveling the playing ﬁeld for women-owned
businesses. It ofﬁcially established the SBA’s Women’s Business Center (WBC) program.
The WBCs were the ﬁrst
SBA program that focused on
women. Today, there are over
100 WBCs across the nation,
including nine new centers
that opened this year. These
centers provide services for
women entrepreneurs, helping them to launch and grow
businesses, invest in their
communities, create jobs, and

grow the economy.
“We know the impact that
women have on our economy
and the importance of women
entrepreneurs,” said Kathy
McShane, Assistant Administrator for the SBA’s Ofﬁce of
Women’s Business Ownership.
“We want women entrepreneurs to feel conﬁdent taking
a risk on starting and growing
their businesses. Whether they
are writing a business plan,
connecting with a business
mentor, or receiving a loan
to start or expand their business, each woman can access
resources available through the
SBA.”

To help businesses overcome
the barriers to start up, the
SBA provides mentorship and
counseling through the Women’s Business Centers, Small
Business Development Centers,
SCORE and the Veterans Business Outreach Centers.
Each year, the SBA counsels,
trains and advises more than
one million entrepreneurs
and small business owners.
Its resource partners provide
access to capital, resources,
and business expertise for each
stage of a business’s lifecycle.

Administration.

Ohio Farm Bureau, North High
Brewing announce centennial beer
COLUMBUS, Ohio
(OFBF) –Ohio’s farmers
and craft beer enthusiasts
will soon celebrate the
release of a new specialty
beer. Cover Crop, from
North High Brewing, will
commemorate the 100th
anniversary of Ohio Farm
Bureau.
Cover Crop is a lightbodied, easy drinking
golden ale that is crisp,
refreshing and perfect
for relaxing after a day of
hard work in the ofﬁce,
factory or farm. The
name Cover Crop honors
the revival of a farming
practice that sustains the
land and its surrounding
environment.
Cover Crop will be
released in package and
draft beginning in December and be available
throughout 2019 wherever North High beer is
sold.
Using local ingredients
was important for both
Ohio Farm Bureau and
North High Brewing,
which is a member of
Farm Bureau. Cover Crop
is to be brewed with local
malt sourced from Rustic
Brew Farm in Marysville,
Ohio. Farm owner Matt
Cunningham’s family has
farmed nearly 100 years
growing traditional row
crops. They’ve been Farm

Bureau members for most
of that time. Within the
past few years Cunningham added barley and a
malting house to diversify the farm and create
opportunities for future
generations.
“Craft beer fans really
appreciate local ingredients,” said Adam Sharp,
Ohio Farm Bureau’s
executive vice president.
“Our partnership with
North High Brewing
connects us to Ohioans
who enjoy knowing all
about the products they
buy. This is a fun way to
celebrate our centennial
and build some appreciation of Ohio’s agricultural
community.”
Sharp said the name,
Cover Crop, is appropriate. “It’s a practice
used generations ago to
improve the soil and is
now coming back as a
way to protect water quality,” he said.
“We’re excited and
honored to craft Cover
Crop with the help of
Ohio farmers,” said
North High Brewing
brewmaster Jason McKibben. Creating a beer
with Ohio ingredients
is a ﬁtting way to commemorate the Farm
Bureau’s anniversary, he
added. “It’s a way we can

304-675-1666 | pvalley.org

make a deﬁnite connection between our customers and Ohioans with the
No. 1 industry in Ohio,
which is agriculture,” he
said. “It’s really just an
honor—it adds gravity to
what we do.”
The release of Cover
Crop is part of a year-long
centennial celebration
for Ohio Farm Bureau.
Other activities include a
member only concert by
country artist Chase Bryant, barn paintings, and
vintage collectables. The
centennial celebration
ofﬁcially kicks off at the
2018 annual meeting Dec.
6 - 7 in Columbus.
Updates on Cover Crop
and all aspects of the centennial celebration are at
ofbf.org/centennial.

THEIR VIEW

Community journalism
matters because
communities matter
“Everything in this newspaper is important to
someone.”
It’s become something of a mantra for me, in
recent years.
Weekly community newspapers
are eclectic, to say the least. We
publish photos of ribbons being cut
at bakeries, and donations being
dropped off at local food pantries.
We print the school honor roll, the
court report, and in-depth stories
Matt
on decisions made by planning
Geiger
commissions and town boards.
Contributing Sometimes we cover murders,
columnist
abuse, and horriﬁc car crashes, and
when we do our community journalists often experience these tragedies as both
reporters and neighbors — as both professionals and human beings. We cover the referendum
that will determine whether a new school is
built and our readers’ taxes will rise. We publish
birth announcements, obituaries, and the various things that, when wedged between those
two book ends, make up the lives that make up
our communities.
I’ve learned more than I ever wanted to know
about sewage, in order to cover the approval
and construction of a new treatment plant.
I interviewed a survivor of the Iran hostage
crisis about what it’s like to be held prisoner
in a foreign land while the world looks on. I’ve
interviewed grandmothers about their favorite
holiday recipes. Perhaps most importantly, I’ve
interviewed little kids about what they want to
be when they grow up, and what type of world
they hope to inhabit.
I’ve even eaten luteﬁsk — a type of gelatinous
Scandinavian ﬁsh that is usually only consumed
as part of a dare — in the warm hum of a local
church’s kitchen. (I even liked it, which I think
qualiﬁes as a kind of small-town gonzo journalism.)
People sometimes ask me why community
newspapers are important. My reply is always
the same. It’s because everything in those
pages is important to someone. Maybe the ribbon cutting isn’t ﬂashy enough to go viral, and
the Thanksgiving turkey recipe is not going to
change culinary trends across the nation. But
these things, these small things in communities across the county and across the world, are
what give meaning and purpose to all of our
lives.
The ribbon cutting is the culmination of a
childhood dream. The donations at the food
pantry will allow a family to gather around
their table without worrying if there is enough
to ﬁll each plate. The honor roll goes on the
fridge, of course, because it’s a reminder to a
young student that she can ﬂourish when she
applies herself. The birth announcement marks
the proudest, greatest moment of a mother and
father’s life together. The face looking out from
the obituary is one that a wife, and children,
and grandchildren, will never kiss again. The
new school being paid for with the referendum
is where a young student might develop an
interest in science, growing up and developing
a treatment for cancer or Alzheimer’s, allowing millions of people to live a little longer, and
have their faces kissed by those who love them
a few more times.
Journalism matters, now more than ever,
because people matter. Community journalism
matters, now more than ever, because roughly
half the world’s population lives in small communities, and in the pages of their newspapers,
they see themselves and the ones they love.

SWCD Board of Supervisors member Pauline H.
Atkins (the ﬁrst woman
on the board of supervisors) who passed away
on Jan. 2, 2006, a wetland
(designed by the NRCS
and constructed in 2008
using the Wildlife Habitat
Incentives Program), a
warm-season grass and
wildﬂower prairie and
a quarter-mile walking
path. A 40-by-60-foot
picnic shelter was constructed at the Conservation Area in 2010 and a
restroom in 2012.
In concluding, Freeman
noted that the current
Meigs SWCD chairman,
Tony Carnahan, is the
grandson of the ﬁrst
chairman, and that he
recently purchased a farm
in Sutton Township that
came with an old SWCD/
SCS Conservation Plan –
a plan signed by his own
grandfather. Carnahan
also pointed out that the
conservation plan was
written for the grandfather of a current supervisor, Tonja Hunter.
The district received
congratulatory proclamations from the Ohio
Department of Agriculture-Division of Soil and
Water Conservation,
U.S. Representative Bill
Johnson, the Ohio Senate
represented by State Senator Frank Hoagland, the
Ohio House represented
by Representative Jay
Edwards, and Ohio Secretary of State John Husted.

Since its inception, the

Freeman explained
how the district’s mission has evolved over the
years even as the nation
changed to adapt to the
times, yet remained true
to its mission of assisting
landowners and local governments in protecting
soil and water resources.
In 2003 the district
secured $172,493 from
the Clean Ohio Green

to purchase 174 acres of
property on New Lima

Lady Tornadoes turn back Wahama
By Alex Hawley

RACINE, Ohio —
Sending the seniors out
in style.
In their ﬁnal home
game of the season, the
Southern volleyball team
claimed a straight games
victory over Tri-Valley
Conference Hocking Division Wahama on Tuesday
in Meigs County.
Southern (5-14, 5-11
TVC Hocking) began its
senior night game with a
wire-to-wire 25-14 win in
Game 1, ﬁnishing the set
with an 8-1 run.
The Lady Tornadoes
scored the ﬁrst six points
of the second game, and
stretched the advantage
to as many as 10 points,
at 18-8. Wahama (2-14,
2-14) fought back to within two points, at 22-20,
but Southern scored the
three markers to take the
25-20 win.
The Lady Falcons
earned their ﬁrst lead
of the night by scoring
the ﬁrst four points of
the third game. SHS tied
the game at ﬁve, seven,
16 and 17, before ﬁnally
taking the advantage at
18-17, as part of a 6-0
run. WHS cut the deﬁcit
to one point, at 22-21, but
Southern scored the next
three points to take the
match-sealing 25-21 win
in the ﬁnale.
Following the victory,
SHS head coach Kim
Hupp was happy with her
team’s energy, and that
they got the sweep on
senior night.
“The girls came out
and played well tonight,”

Wahama senior Alexis Mick (31) spikes the ball over Southern’s
Sydney Adams (left), during Tuesday’s TVC Hocking match in
Racine, Ohio.

Hupp said. “We had some
unforced errors in the
third set, but we were
able to overcome that and
ﬁnish with the win.
“We will miss our
seniors next year, Marissa
(Brooker), Peyton
(Anderson), Abby (Cummins), and Baylee (Grueser). I am glad I was able
to be a part of coaching
these girls the last three
years.”
For the Lady Falcons,
head coach Matt VanMeter noted that his team is
dealing with reoccurring
issues, and balancing the
difference between playing in two states.
“It’s the same thing
we’ve seen all year, out
of position and we’re not
staying low,” VanMeter
said. “We’re playing too

big, and in volleyball you
cant play big and still
come up with digs, you
can’t move as well.
“I’m having a hard time
with how the different
governing bodies have
the ofﬁcials call certain
things. West Virginia calls
them a certain way, and
Ohio calls them another
way. I’m pretty sure they
both go by the same
NFHS rules, I don’t know.
That hurts a lot, because
things that are getting
called in West Virginia
don’t get called here, but
it didn’t cost us the game.
We still have to overcome
whatever they throw at
us, just take whatever
they give us and pull out
wins.”
For the match, SHS
ﬁnished with a 48.3 side-

out percentage, while
Wahama’s was 38.4. The
Lady Tornadoes earned
a 94.5 serve percentage
with 10 aces, while The
Lady Falcons had a 91.4
serve percentage and a
quartet of aces.
Sydney Adams led the
Lady Tornado service
with match-highs of 13
points and four aces. Peyton Anderson was next
with 11 points and two
aces, followed by Baylee
Wolfe with 10 points and
three aces. Phoenix Cleland contributed seven
points and an ace to the
winning cause, while Baylee Grueser and Marissa
Brooker chipped in with
two points apiece.
Gracie VanMeter led
the Lady Falcons with
nine service points, followed by Alexis Mick
with seven points and
an ace. Logan Eades and
Harley Roush ﬁnished
with four points apiece,
to go with two aces and
one ace respectively. Bailee Bumgarner and Hannah Billups rounded out
the WHS service attack
with three points apiece.
At the net, Wolfe posted 19 kills and a pair of
blocks for the Purple and
Gold. Cleland and Mickenzie Ferrell earned six
kills apiece, with Cleland
adding a pair of blocks.
Jordan Hardwick had
three kills in the win, Saelym Larsen ﬁnished with

ings. After he signed
his contract extension,
Atkins said during a rare
media session that he
realized early in his nineyear career that his size
can be a big advantage in
the NFL.
“Short, stocky, strong
guys — we have the
leverage, strength and
power,” Atkins said. “The
bull rush is really my will
against your will.”
Austin came to the
Bengals from Detroit,
where Ndamukong Suh
created problems for
blockers in much the
same way. He appreciates how Atkins can force
offenses to change their
blocking plans.

coach Marvin Lewis said.
“He knocks him down,
and he stays on his feet.
That’s a good way to do
it, I guess. He can do it
with that kind of velocity.”
Atkins is a leading
example of how shorter
defensive linemen can
get through and around
much bigger blockers.
The 6-foot-1, 300-pound
tackle can use his signature “bull rush” move on
linemen who aren’t set for
it, driving them backward
into the quarterback.
Atkins is one of the
quietest Bengals, declining interviews and saying

quarter and had three
turnovers, including an
interception and fumble
that were returned for the
decisive touchdowns.
Atkins was in the middle of it, forcing Tannehill
to stray from the pocket
and become vulnerable to
hits that led to the turnovers.
“He’s unbelievable,”
ﬁrst-year defensive coordinator Teryl Austin said.
“On one sack he beat the
guy so fast I don’t know
what you ask the quarterback to do. He just does
stuff you don’t teach.”
Atkins has six sacks
in ﬁve games, tied with
the Texans’ J.J. Watt and
the Steelers’ T.J. Watt

CINCINNATI (AP) —
Ryan Tannehill tried to
give his receiver a little
more time to get open,
but Geno Atkins was having none of it.
The Bengals tackle
closed quickly and
smacked into the Dolphins quarterback as he
released an incomplete
pass to Kenny Stills.
Just the start of a long
day for Miami’s overmatched blockers.
Atkins had two more
sacks and three quarterback hits during Cincinnati’s 27-17 win on Sunday that was the direct
result of the Bengals’
defense. Tannehill was

Steelers defense turns up
pressure by turning back the clock
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Joe Haden
understands how it looks. Spend an
afternoon keeping the NFL’s leading
wide receiver in check and you’re bound
to get all the credit.
Yet the veteran Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback understands he didn’t
exactly shut down Atlanta’s Julio Jones
during a dominant 41-17 win on Sunday
all by himself.
The Steelers sometimes had two —
and on occasion three — bodies around
Jones. And a resurgent pass rush forced
Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan to
spend a signiﬁcant portion of the afternoon under heavy duress.
“They weren’t running,” Haden said.
“The D-line controlled things. They

controlled the front and then they got
the sacks. That’s helping me out too big
time. I just love when the D-line is able
to get that type of pressure.”
So do the rest of the Steelers (2-2-1),
who for the ﬁrst time this season looked
like the group that led the NFL and set a
franchise record with 57 sacks in 2017.
T.J. Watt took down Ryan three times.
Defensive tackle Cam Heyward
picked up a sack and split another with
linebacker Jon Bostic. Even reserve
linebacker L.J. Fort got in on things,
collecting the third sack of his six-year
career and later falling on Ryan’s fumble
in the end zone to put the ﬁnishing
touches on Pittsburgh’s most complete
performance of the year.
