Mike Nixon

We have a chance of winning. The Eagles are like us when we went 11-0
 
Coach Mike Tomlin might be added to the list, and I sure hope that is the case.

Anything is possible in America !!!! Cheers



Salute the nation
 
For some reason we’ve always struggled in Philly.
Mike Nixon, I remember that guy! Some dark *** years!
 
However, by the time the next season started, age and injuries had caught up with the Steelers. Two weeks before the start of the 1965 NFL season, Parker abruptly quit. Nixon was promoted to head coach the next day, but endured (up to that time) the franchise's worst season with a 2-12 mark.

He only won two games, and one was in Philly. Impressive.

We might be saying that exact same thing about Coach Tomlin.

I don't know how many times they have played but at one time................. we were combined and called the STEAGLES.

The war effort reduced our player numbers so we had to combine.
