Best Players to NEVER Play in the Super Bowl

Ok maybe not Jim Thorpe. But Warren moon and Dickerson come to mind
 
Carson Palmer of recent years comes to mind
 
Warren Moon, another great stat QB who just couldn't do it in the playoffs
and another old Oiler, Dan Pastorini. He would get talked about a lot more if he had been able to get past the Steelers in 78 or 79..hell of a tough guy.

He won championships just not in the NFL. If he had played his entire career in the NFL he would probs hold every record possible
 
10 Sterling Sharpe
9 Randall Cunningham
8 Dan Diordorf

None of these three would make my list.

I'd add: OJ, Dickerson, Campbell

Consider:

Antonio Gates
JJ Watt
Moon

How about the BEST STEELERS player to NOT play in a super bowl

Ron mentioned Stewert and that would have been one of mine, what about Kirkland?? Hardy Knickerson??





Salute the nation
 
Best Steelers to never play in a SB? Levon Kirkland did play in a SB, SB XXX. But I'll go with some newer guys and say Cam Heyward & David DeCastro. Cam Heyward may get some different opinions on how good he really is, but when the guy is on (assuming zero injury issues holding him back), I think he's one of the best in the game.

Good choice Steelworth but I was kind of thinking NON-active players and you're right on Kirkland. I'm non-active memory for some reasoning today. It's hard to find Great STEELERS players (non-active) who haven't played in SB. Once the meMEme twins are out, they will be top on this list.

Louis Lipps comes to mind

95 yards and 2 touchdowns in the Super Bowl loss to the Rams. The other two are real good choices.

Kordell played in Super Bowl XXX when he was Slash. Heyward and DeCastro are two good names to include.
 
Steve Largeant
Curt Warner
Tony Gonzalez - don't think he was on Atl when they played the Pats
Cris Carter
John Randle
Dan Fouts
Kellen Winslow
Ozzie Newsome
Bruce Matthews
Mike Munchak
 
Bubby Brister has a SB ring. Yes, he was Elway's backup. And Eric Dickerson was on the NFL Top list, btw. A few who come to mind.... Not saying all were deserving but they were solid NFL stars...

Bo Jackson
Steve Largent
Barry Foster
Ernest Givins
Henry Ellard
Michael Vick
Danny White
Tony Boselli
Jerome Brown
Al Toon
Andre Johnson
Antonio Gates
Bernie Kosar
Larry Johnson
Craig Heyward
