    Are you suggesting that Bell took less money to sign for the Jets because he thought the Jets had a better chance of winning a championship? Bell overestimated his value.

    And Brown left the Steelers to go to the Raiders because he thought the Raiders had a better chance at winning a championship?

    I think it more likely that you didn't like Tomlin and you didn't think he was going to win a championship again and you are projecting those thoughts onto Bell and Brown when I don't think that played any part in either of their decisions.

    80% of the fan base didn’t know crap about football

    50% by definition have a below average intelligence

    1% run the world for a reason

    Did Bell ruin his career? He got more money AND played with teams that had deeper playoff runs.

    Brown ended things by getting another contract and winning a SB.

    How did Bell overestimate his value? He was given one of the highest contracts for his position at the time. The Steelers were just being the Steelers trying to find out how to save a buck.

    Plus, Bell got to make deep playoff runs with KC and Tampa while Tomlin and the Steelers were getting bounced in the WC, if they made the post season at all.

    More money .. better teams .. yeah, Bell was foolish for wanting all of that.

    Who did he play for that had deeper playoff runs????
    We were major Superbowl contenders when Bell held out... what deep playoff run did Bell have with the jets?????

    Brown ended things jogging off the field and quitting on his team.

    Do you actually think about the things you post???

    Bell was not even in rotation with the chiefs in the playoffs and he was cut with the bucs in the 2021 playoffs....AB was only a luxury for the bucs,they would won without him

    Im hoping for the best even though i didnt like the hire. I hope McCarthy proves guys like Bell wrong. Bell certainly didnt leave on good terms. I would give more credence to guys like Bettis, Joe Greene or Hines over a knucklehead like Bell
