Remember The "Killer Bees" of Pittsburgh?

Is it too early to put a label on Joe, Joe, and Jamarr?

Or do we have to wait until after Sunday? Lol

I don't think the Killer J's is a good name for a team.  Sounds like an old Cheech and Chong Movie.

And "Jungle J's" sounds like a grocery store.

Wasn't the Killer Bees referring to the Miami Dolphins?

"Flying J" is owned by the Haslam family (owners of Cleveland Browns)

Yeah, I looked it up.  The 1982 Dolphins defense were the Killer B's:  Bob Baumhower, Bill Barnett, Lyle Blackwood, Kim Bokamper, Glenn Blackwood, Charles Bowser, Doug Betters, and Bob Brudzinski.

Yep.

Early 80's Dolphin defense was the original "Killer B's"

Well, it's a name with a rich history.

They've named themselves already (I can't remember)

Yes

I'm so old I can also remember the purple people eaters and fearsome foursome. But I also believe they called the Steelers O that a little bit.

I didn't know that.

But I was 5 years old so yeah.

More recent history that most people will remember is Ben, Bell and Brown of the Steelers.  It was all over the place a few years ago.

I suppose it wasn't very original but I suspect far more people are familiar with that version of the killer Bs than a Miami team from 40 years ago.
