Better sack numbers from their pass rushers.
Hubbard had only 2.5 sacks last year and he gets
A extension.
Of course Steelers fans are laughing
Would their franchise pay out the same extension
To a player to similar numbers as Hubbard...
Probably not. 
Just matters what side of the fence you are
Bengals fans applaud it
Steelers fans laugh at it

Bud Dupree had essentially the same number of sacks as Hubbard through his first three years.  I don't know if he missed extensive time to injury like Hubbard, but Hubbard had 13.5 sacks after his first two seasons and missed extensive time last season.  And as I mentioned in a previous post, Sam is one of the better run-stuffing DEs in the league.  

I will add that Dupree had a high-powered offense and great talent around him.  Sam had neither of those things.  Very excited to see what he can do this year.
