Absolutely true. And in Mashburn’s defense, he said Ben was the greatest and it was basically a tossup for number two between Bradshaw and...
The dude had the tools to be a great quarterback. He just didn’t have it between the ears.
I’m calling it now…according to the most knowledgeable Steeler fans in the world (who happen to frequent this board)… TERRY BRADSHAW IS THE...
I put NOD as an option almost tongue in cheek after Mashburn argued with me that he was a better quarterback than Bradshaw. :rolleyes:
The only stat line I regularly quote with regard to Ben is his sucky performance in his first Super Bowl.:shrug: Look, I love Ben…he was a GREAT...
Bradshaw’s first Super Bowl was won by the defense and Franco Harris, I’ll give you that. Bradshaw ran the offense very efficiently and had a TD...
No way of knowing for sure, but one thing we do know for certain is that Ben was mediocre to bad in Super Bowls. In his first, he had the lowest...
Wow. Unless a QB has a 3 to 1 TD to INT ratio today he’s not worth squat. Back then it was 1.5 or 1 to 1. I do remember that it was very common...
I think NOD was a good quarterback, not a great one and definitely doesn’t belong in the conversation with Terry and Ben. The Steelers could win...
And for those saying that Bradshaw played with HOFers it seems that you’re implying that Ben has played with scrubs. Just think of all of the...
Have to disagree that Roy Gerela was great. I remember holding my breath on extra points with that guy. I think his range was about 38 yards and...
Okay, I can see this is already getting off the rails…:lolol: But seriously, I’d like to know what Steeler nation really thinks.
You can make that case, but I’m really looking for a quarterback that played for the Steelers in his most substantive years.
Honestly, Mash, I’ve seen your case for O’Donnell and it doesn’t hold water in my mind. I watched both quarterbacks throughout their careers and...
We’ve debated that question on this board before but let’s settle this the democratic way…by voting on it. I’ve made no secret of the fact that I...
You’re being a little harsh on Mr. O’Donnell. I mean, if Neil were your son you’d think he was better than Bradshaw too. ;)
I’m pretty sure I know a little about old school football and have probably been following the Steelers for as long as you have (mid-70s). Nobody...
Come on, Mash, do you really think Neil O’Donnell could have made some of those throws that Bradshaw made to win Super Bowls X, XIII, and XIV?...
I’ve actually warmed up to the idea of Willis at 20 if he’s still there now that we’ve signed Trubisky and there won’t be as much pressure on him...
But Tyrann has a cool nickname!
