Silverback may not be back

James Harrison is not sure he'll be back next season and the reality is he probably won't be. He'll be missed if he isn't re-signed. When he was at his best he was a dominant force. Thanks, James, for arguably the greatest play in Super Bowl history with your 100 yard interception return against the Cards.

That's a shame but, to be expected. He's a little older and has been injured. Looks like the NFL will have to file chapter 11 without his fines!*



*It's just a joke folks.

 

he is a great Steeler, but i did like what i saw from Worilds. Harrison never really got going this year. maybe a lot had to do with his injury and maybe some had to do with the way he has played the game. he played hard and hit hard and that takes a tole. also being forced to change the way he plays didnt help.

i think we will be seeing a few great Steelers for the last time Sunday.

 

it was a pleasure to see him play for us , comparable to greg lloyd
who knows when we will find another one

 

That's a great question' TE. I started a thread about this a few months ago. Not sure we have THAT guy with the nastitude to succeed James.

 

right now we don't have that guy on the roster, looking in the draft maybe bjoern werner

 

even if we had, Goodell would drive him out of the league before long

 

I think its up to James...if he is willing to play for league min...then he can come back.

HACK

 

You may be right, but if that's true, that's pretty sad. If he goes out like that, he'll regret it one day. He'll miss the game and if he goes out earlier than he has to, he'll regret it the rest of his life. Football has changed no doubt, and it doesn't bode well for his style, but big hits do still happen. The game hasn't changed so drastically that it's worth giving up on. It's still the most physical sport on the planet.

 

Not only do we not have that guy anymore, I don't think we're that same physical, scary team anymore either. We're much more of a finesse team now. Hampton, Timmons, Clark and Troy still hit hard, but that's about it, and 3 of those guys will probably be gone in the years to come (if not next year for 1 or 2 of them).

 

If he's expected to be a starter I don't think it's fair to ask him to play for the league min.

 

expecially looking at the other side who is EATING 10 milion
to be fair they should have share the 10 milion between woodley and harrison 5 each

 

Thanks for the great years, big hits and many game changing plays...a true Steeler and disruptive force. Was at the SB vs. AZ and my son and I are blessed to see that interception live. I thougt Troy's pick vs the Ravens was great to be at, until 92 made history.

All good things must come to an end, so thanks for everything James. Do us a favor and give Roger the bird at your retirement presser.

 

Hope u change your mind 92

 

When he was at his best he was the most dominantforce in the NFL. No olb came close to him in tackles. Tue year everybody was hyping Mathews he ended with 63 tackles Harrison had 100 75 of which were solo

 

I was also there with my sons, and saw the greatest play in Super Bowl history. I think he has another year left in him, if we could afford him.

One of a few plays that I can watch over and over again.

 

He better be.
Many of these guys need to restructure and finish the job 2013.

Lets not forget this either...

 

Thanks BobbyBiz, I could watch these plays over and over.

 

I love #92 but he isn;t worth the $10mil cap hit. He hasn't done enough this year along with wood.
