Your All Time Steelers Lineup

The odds of Randy Johnson hitting you are pretty slim……………

The odds of Jerome Bettis putting you in the hospital is G-iganguss

I was a pretty good Baseball player as well, I’d still not want to tackle the bus open field.

All good SIR !!!



Salute the nation
Well would you rather have the Bus run into you full speed with shorts and a T on or get hit in the head by Johnson?

See above post #75...................................................... :rolleyes:


You seem to be interested in what I'm wearing......................... NO dual G-strings today as I have a lot of walking miles to put and they seem to rub my inner crack raw........

will keep you posted if there is a change up.....

PS Johnson wouldn't hit me in the head, at that era age........ I had great reflexive action.

I don't know you took shorts and a t shirt and went to g strings and your butt crack

That scares me lol
 
Bell’s sour apples at the end tainted his legacy to more degree than one would think.

I’m not dissing the Bell, but also realize we won nothing with him.

That little “delayed run” would have been swallowed up in a heart-beat back in Franco’s Era.

Again, I’m not dissing the Bell as he was pretty good for a short period, had he finished his career here….HOF.

Coaching failed that Era of the killer B’s, unfortunately the Bell was included in that Era.

You don't think NFL defenses are bigger stronger and faster than they were in Franco's era?
In fairness players should be judged by how they performed on the field at their best.
Bumlin would have lost with Brady, Moss and Bo Jackson. SMH

The defenses probably are. So are the offenses. So are the players. I would argue while that may be the case, in Franco's era the defenses were better at fundemental tackling, because they did it all the time. In Franco's era you could do things on defense you cannot today.

I thought Bell was a heck of a player. But Franco is a HOFer. The only way Bell gets there is if he buys a ticket like you and me. It's a shame, because if he wasn't an idiot, who knows? Again, my main objection is the "not even close." Even if you think Bell is better, it's close. I'd still take Franco or Bettis over him...you didn't have worry about them flaking out.

Im not gonna go watch film of Franco and Bell and compare the two and my memory of Franco is sketchy......its been a long f-ing time since I watched him and I put Franco on my all time list because well hes Franco and he's a HOFer and he was good but when I really just look objectively at stats Bell makes a case for being the superior back if you are looking at pure peak period. I quickly added up total yardage for Franco on his 3 best years.......hes around 4200........Bell is at 6000 f-ing thousand. Bells 2014 All Pro year he had 2200 scrimmage yards (and had 2 other seasons around 1900).

If I took those 2 players and then ranked the very best individual years of those 2 players. Bell might have the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd best year between the two and then Franco would have 4th through 12 or whatever because Bell got injured, sat out like a moron, smoked weed and his career was much shorter. But seriously did Franco ever have a Bell 2014, or 2016, or 2017 year? So who was the better back?

If we want to say 3 year peak I'd say Bell was the better player hands down but a decade Bell doesn't even qualify. Take your love for a great man out of the convo and objectively weigh the talent of an idiot basically lol
 
What a great problem to have as fans.
So many great players over all of our life times.

A lot of teams are known for 1 or 2 great players
