    Darwin Horn in 1951 is the only other Steeler I have found to wear number 70.

    Your thread, your rules.

    Though if you'd left Thigpen off the 82 post, I'd have been disgruntled...

    I liked Thigpen. I wish he had stayed with the Steelers. The Steelers learned to keep their own after letting Thigpen and Searcy go.

    Excellent job with this thread "Take" - a Herculean task no doubt - I still have a few of those Kahn football cards - weird thing about them though was while all other football/baseball cards smelled like bubble gum, the Kahn cards always smelled like greasy hotdogs. :hmm:

    Last season, before it started, I was excited and was anticipating a possible SB win. However, after the season was over and seeing the futility of trying to beat the Cheaters and know knowing the Cheaters probably improved themselves, I have little hope of a SB win going into this season.

    Nice to see a Steeler fan anticipating another season with this thread, but I`m sad and convinced we will always lose to those bastids. Keep the hopeful posts coming to help cheer fans like me up. Thanks.

    Don't give me too much credit. Living near St. Louis, a guy did a thread like this for the Cardinals and their magic number to win the division a few years ago. But he was using all kinds of military aircraft, ships, and every other kind of object that had a number on it. Google makes this about a 5 minute a day activity. It is fun finding the Warren Seitz t-shirt and the David James card, etc.

    Great thread, keep it going.

    It will be interesting to see where you go the final day or two.

    Not a Steeler but didn't a guy named Burroughs wear number "00" for the Houston Oilers back in the 70's/80's?

    The lineman's dream, but I think he's blowing a tire with his left foot:

    upload_2017-5-17_7-22-56.jpeg Could Orpheus Roye played quarterback? He kind of looks like Roethlisberger with a 1 added to his jersey.
