The steelers of the 70's are the reason 90% of steeler fans exist today. That's a lot of marketing and merchandise. And it's all rooney's fault. Hence, the tribute

I don't recall any other team winning as many Superbowls as Pitt. He earned it.

Not gonna lie I wanted Watt in the second lol. Here's to hoping he's just a name.

Watt is going to be a scary dude after he gets those Steeler steroids pumped in.

I do too, but I bet he gets coached up enough to be very good.

If his name was T.J. Jones, he'd be a late 2nd round pick.

In Cincy, it might be another kind of celebration. While that would be absolutely wrong, there are a whole boatload of people who despise Mike Brown.

There goes Foster

We probably could have used Foster.

To be fair to the Steelers, Rooney was huge for black coaches getting a chance in the NFL and ran the most successful franchise in the league. That said, it was overkill.

When Al Davis passed, they


Well they did that thing for Bud Ad...


Ralph Wilson got a touching...


I'm SURE they did something for Lamar Hunt, right?

I don't recall any other team having a ton of their players die young from everything the team put in their bodies in order to win those SBs.

Or any other team with so many mediocre players getting in the HoF because of it. Bradshaw... lol.

im not saying he might not be good.. but he sure rose a bit more over the last few months... but he did have a good combine.. and not like there are not good players still out there.

Save it for smack talk. Dude earned the tribute.

Crazy good athleticism.

Great production for being switched to a new position. And is still learning it.

Will be training and learning from a 3 time defensive MVP

I know Bengals need RB. But round 2, McDowell would be tempting.

That's Bengals coachspeak for "no ****ing way!!!!"

I think he's a decent scheme fit and should be a solid player for them, but he's no JJ.  For those freaking out over Ross's knees, Watt has blown both of his out.
