Agreed. Ike Taylor is one of the ten best corners in team history. He helped win a Super Bowl by making an absolutely critical interception, a...
Glad someone mentioned this. Ben definitely deserves the game ball for a career game. But, keep your eye on DeCastro. This kid is GOOD. I saw him...
Right on. If you've been a Steelers fan for a while, long or short while, then you know that this franchise is historically capable of making...
Been a fan since 1972- my first pro football memory is the Immaculate Reception. I'll always be a fan- and the championship run in the 1970s also...
DeCastro- I think- is very quietly coming along nicely and Velesco has been ok too.
Great win. I'm not sold on this team's turnaround yet- in many ways they still suck- but they are headed in the right direction. Any win over the...
I was there for the AFC title game win, and Troy's pick Six was just nutty. I remember as well fondly James Harrison just killing them...
I hate Joe Flacco, who is an ungainly, gawky P.O.S. Hate, hate hate him, especially since Krazy Eyes Killa Ray is gone. Looking forward to the...
Well, my pick was off, but we won so who cares? If you go back to the beginning of this thread, you can read about my plans to attend this game....
I'll start this one, since I expect to be there next Sunday to see this mess in person. Steelers 16, Jets 13. First downs- 17
Nice post. This draft was made possible by a slot provided by the 1986 team's 6-10 finish. As I've posted before, the 1986 team reminds me a lot...
If they can't beat the Jets with a rookie Qb after a bye week, then that will be even more rock bottom than this. The Steelers have started badly...
Thanks, although I wish I could have posted it on another occasion. I did end up texting Jimmy with the sad news of L.C.'s passing (Jimmy's...
Here's a great picture of my friend Jimmy Allen with LC, c. 1975: [ATTACH]
Agreed. This news breaks my heart. He was one of my personal favorites and rest assured, he kicked Roger Staubach's ass on multiple occasions....
Steelers channel this game: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/198610260pit.htm which at the time seemed to be an even greater...
ok, not that this means anything other than trivia- BUT Assuming Graham plays in at least one game, then- only 2 players who have played for the...
It would have been interesting then, and the cap is just another one of a million reasons why the NFL was so much more fun in the 1970s than it is...
No analogy is perfect, blountforce, but I just wrote about the patterns I'm seeing and what the current team reminds me of. History doesn't really...
After the Denver game in 2011, I posted on this board that I felt the loss spelled the end of an era. I wrote then that the next time the Steelers...
