People can bash Bradshaw all they want, but he did what it took to win. He never lost a Super Bowl and he won 4 before any other team won 3. As for Chuck Noll, he took over a Steeler team that had never won anything and in a time when teams only drafted players from big name colleges. He drafted players from colleges no one ever heard of. Went 1-13 his first season and it was all up hill after that. I had season tickets to their games for all their great years. Saw Bradshaw throw a pass 80 yards in the air against the Raiders. Intended for Lynn Swann. He would have caught it but for pass interference. 79 Steelers are still the greatest team ever.
I was quizzing a friend of mine not too long ago asking him which modern day quarterback was it that could go backwards and throw across his body and complete it deep down the field.I was talking about Elway and that was his second guess he told me.His first guess of course he gave was bradshaw.He was a huge steeler fan growing up and vividly remembers how Bradshaw could do that.
