How The Most Talented Trio In NFL History Failed To Win A Super Bowl...

- Long ago, the Pittsburgh Steelers had accumulated a trio of Antonio Brown, Ben Roethlisberger, and Le'veon Bell, arguably the three most talented guys ever assembled at one time. However, even with this much talent, the Steelers didn't win a single super bowl. In this video, we're going to uncover the factors, players, and overall madness, that led to the Killer B's failing to ever win a super bowl. Anyway, if you enjoyed this video, then like and comment if you want, and you can even subscribe if you think I've earned it.
With Antonio Brown going crazy, only one man can contain him, and Thatgoodsports is that man. With the aid of Mikerphone and various ancient spells of unforeseen power, the two must venture to the lair of Flemlo Raps, and hopefully find the lost Football Analysis. Now that Antonio Brown highlights keep giving people like Chase Chats and Tom Grossi forms of content, we can only wait for more football stories NFL players have told.

Good Ole "High End Talent"
Stillers to da supabawl!!!!!!!!!!
Captain Fat Fuck, leader of men
Ok Mike Tomlin definitely deserves to be in the Hall of Fame for dealing with these people.
😂😂😂
He’s overrated
@@ggallintedtalkThe job of a head coach is to win, and he's accrued 16 consecutive winning seasons and two Super Bowl appearances. He's 16th all time in regular season wins and 15th in regular season win % among head coaches with 50 career games coached. And he's somehow overrated. Ok
He's a damn good coach, the best years of his tenure just happened to overlap with the goat at his best. I don't think he's done yet either. He just needs a damn qb again.
But he also had all that talent in 2016 and 2017…and ended up doing nothing with it
Martavis Bryant seemed like he was going to be the 4th B for a while too. The dude was an absolute god of talent who had no idea how to be a responsible adult.
Antonio browns understudy
Million dollar talent, 10 cent head.
@alexvratsanos5227 I was going to say something. But, Mann, you perfectly said it.
Arguably 5th killer be. People forget how clutch Boz is
Fit right in.
It's interesting that while covering that 2017 Season you didn't mention the Shazier injury. A big part of that 17' explosion after week 5 was the defense finally starting to come together behind Shazier's lights out play. At the time of his injury he was #3 in defensive player of the year projected rankings... They were finally starting to click & then BOOM... Spinal.
Between Shazier & Jesse James that season was absolutely insane
i feel like tom brady, randy moss, and wesswalker were a better trio than this
@@meatduck-ki3dotrue. Also Brady, Gronk, and Edelman. Won three Super Bowls together
@@the_boss2194 them too
@meatduck-ki3do 😂 no 🤨
Antonio, if he didn't leave, was on pace to catching up to Jerry Rice. He had one of the of not the BEST 6 year performances in history. Le'veon Bell is better than any running back that's Pat's ever had, and Ben is equal to Brady if not better (i will glady break that down). This video is addressing the best QB, RB, Wr tandoms in history.
@@Mcking123456654321Yeah put the crack pipe down. Big Ben was awful in both sb games he won outside of Santonio Holmes bailing him out in 2008 and won ZERO mvp’s his entire career. That fat slob was overrated and the steelers were frontrunners at best
I don’t know why I decided to relive all this… those were the best and worst years of my life as a Steelers fan 😢
Feel u bro…I was still too young (around 9 or 10 years old I believe) when they won that last ring against Az, and even though I had been playing ball for 3 seasons already, I was more interested in playing Madden than watching the damn Super Bowl lmao…and then I had the chance to watch and fully enjoy the Killer B’s when I was in HS…sadly it didn’t last long, but those were by far my happiest/saddest moments as a Steelers fan ):
I knoe dude, i know.....
I think the one that still stings the most was that opening playoff round 2012 on the road at 12-4 vs. Tim Tebow's 8-8 Broncos.
That OT pass to Demayrius Thomas (Rip) still stings today man!
😢
Bro I couldn’t watch the entire video. Dead ass😔😂
I’m a Steelers fan and those weren’t the best days nor the worst days. Best days were 2004 and 2008.
Worst days we’re watching them suck ass after losing to the Cowboys in the superbowl up until the went and won another Super Bowl.
This video just showcases peak comedy.
It absolutely amazes me that the Albany Empire took a look at AB’s actions and controversies starting in 2016 and said, “Yeah…that’s the type of guy we want running our franchise.”
Durrrrrrrp.
One phrase can describe this era in Pittsburgh. "Tonight, on Days of our Steelers"
Several reasons not talked about: Bell was a completely selfish player, Brown sabotaged the 2016 AFC championship game, never had a defense worthy of a SB. People forget their SB winning defenses of the 2000s was basically gone by the time Bell and Brown were there.
Don’t forget your qb was an out of shape porn addicted sexual abusing doofus.
Ye
Ego is also the teams downfall and also the fact that Le’Veon Bell admitted to taking drugs before games
How tf did ab fuck the game up plz explain🤦♂️😭🤣🤣bc by the start of the sec half we were pretty much blown out lev got hurt first half so deangelo came in for him then we started playing are back ups like cobi Hamilton,Eli rodgers &etc bc it was already out of reach but it was are zone defense tht Tom Brady was just picking apart tht I remember so next time kno what your talkin ab before u comment😭😂
@@mountaineernews2Lawrence taylor did cocaine ON THE SIDELINE i think the drugs were the least of bells worries. Namely like his overrated vision and patience behind a really good o line
A few things I feel were left out as a diehard steelers fan:
-Antonio Brown was always narcissistic and a little crazy before the hit, it just became more apparent
-In 2017, Ryan Shazier was hurt bad against the Bengals and the defense couldn't stop anyone without him, especially blake bortles
-In the AFCCCG against the Patriots, at 3 AM the fire alarm was falsely pulled by a fan the night before the game (tbh probably didn't affect much it's just an excuse)
And they still haven't plugged the hole left by Shazier. The Bills took adavantage of that fact all day Monday.
@@alansach8437well it was filled, and then holcomb and kwon get season ending injuries and we got fucked. We were actually doing great in that area
As a Steelers fan who became a fan in 2012-2013, it still really hurts that they couldn’t win anything, especially 2017 when they choked vs jax
As a steelers fan, you know that superbowl 40 was staged for the steelers to win so Bettis could retire in his hometown as a winner. Kinda like how Russell Wilson was never meant to give the ball to lynch because lynch probably would have jumped in and grabbed his junk as he scored the win 😂
Sincerely,
A Seahawks fan
Lots of salt here.
Watch the game again. The bad calls went both ways. Plus, how many opportunities did Seattle have to score and failed to do so?
Y’all let Antwan Randle El throw a touchdown pass to Hines Ward in the Super Bowl.
Seattle lost that game for themselves. Nobody did it for them.
You could get a lot of people in bar trivia if you ask them what year Brown was drafted. Most people, probably even Steelers fans dont realize he was there for Bens last SB.
he had a big play against the ravens on that SB run, but was mainly the returner
Did antonio get drafted the year ben went to his last superbowl🤔
Idk if ur talking about cards or packers but if ur talking about cards he was drafted in 2010
@@jack94737that’s what I was thinking he was there the last time they were in the super bowl. That’s when they lost to the packers. He wasn’t there when The Steelers beat the cardinals which in my opinion was the best superbowls I ever watched next to both times the giants beat the patriots but that’s cuz I’m a giants fan. It I wasn’t I would say the cardinals-Steelers Super Bowl would be the best I’ve ever seen.
I wanna say 2010 off top my head.
“Our 3 morally gray protagonists” 😆
steelers fan here, this is one of the greatest yet saddest videos i’ve ever seen. the type of dynasty the steelers could’ve had based around these three is even insane to think abt. it already barely happened, imagine it hit full potential… we will never know. awesome vid 🙏🏼
No defense
Imagine if they had 2022 TJ Watt with those Steelers offenses from 2015-2017
@@scruffd0g193 2015 would've been a great chance then. Maybe 2016 to
i feel like tom brady, randy moss, and weswalker were a better trio than this and the patriots were a big reason that the steelers also didnt win a superbowl
@meatduck-ki3do no they weren't. Also that pats core never won a sb and only beat the Yinzers twice, once in that undefeated year
As a die hard Steelers fan, this was a great time to watch Steelers football, but a massive disappointment as well.
There are many reasons why the Killer B’s trio never won anything.
1. Was the Patriots. Steelers could never beat the Patriots when it mattered, especially in the 2016 AFC Championship game when they lost to the Patriots 36-17. The Patriots definitely cost the Steelers some opportunities.
2. All three AB’s weren’t on the field as much as you think. AB almost never missed a game, Ben missed a decent number of games with injuries. And Le’veon was damn near always hurt or suspended. Missing crucial games including the 2014 wild card against the Ravens and most of the 2016 AFC championship against the patriots, leaving the 1st quarter due to injury.
3. The most important reason was the defense. With as good as the Steelers offenses were in the Killer B’s era, the defenses were not so good. They were putrid to mediocre most of the time, always relying on the offense to put up points and wins. The best chance the Steelers had to win was during the 2017 season when they had a top 5 offense and they actually had a top 10 defense throughout most of the season. Until Ryan Shaizer went down, they no longer had that super athletic middle linebacker to cover the middle of the field, and teams destroyed them over the middle with short to medium ranged passes from there on out, look at the 2017 divisional game against Jacksonville, they absolutely missed Shaizer’s presence in the middle.
Plus Mike Tomlin having to deal with so many egos and big personalities on the team, those Steelers teams sure were talented, but they never were able to put it all together at the right time. And that era was full of missed opportunities and frustrating disappointments
Thank you
steelers fans blame tomlin for all those losses but i think mroe blame goes to all the injuries this team went through and all the egos in the locker room
I feel that Ryan shazier’s injury in whatever season it was was a death sentence for the Steelers. He was the glue for their defense being able to stop any outside run as an inside linebacker. I believe he was so fast that he beat a large portion of the Steelers wide receivers in a foot race AS A MIDDLE LINEBACKER
I will defend Mike Vick on that fact that he served his time and has admitted his faults while doing whatever he can to correct them. I mean the man did publicly say you don’t have to forgive him but that he was gonna continue to try
Man i don't care about that dog fighting shit Vick just underachieved with eagles and falcons
So sad there couldn't be ONE season where the Steelers didn't have some sort of debacle.
2013 - 0-4 start, defense is no longer elite
2014 - Defense sucked
2015 - Ben's injury, AB killed by Burfict, fumble in next playoff game
2016 - TB12 owns the Steelers' defense, Bryant's suspension, Heyward's injury
2017 - Shazier's injury, the Jesse James catch, and terrible defense in the playoff game vs JAC
2018 - Bell is out, drama, late-game choking
2019 - Ben is out
2020 - 12-0 fluke start, narrow wins against bad teams
2021 - Team somehow wins 9 games despite sucking overall
2022 - Ben's retired
So sad the Steelers didn't get a single super bowl out of this, and their defense was actually really solid from 2015 - 2020.
Their defense was solid? As in average?
@@YasharKhanahdefense was literal garbage 🤣
Their defense consistently allowed less than 20 points/game from 2015-2020. Yes... that's solid.
I think their 2016 week 10 game against the Dallas Cowboys was still one of the best football games I've ever seen! Was exciting from start to finish.
Antonio Brown is CTE personified. As a Steelers fan, I found his rapid mental decline after the Burfict hit to be utterly depressing. His surreal mental breaks would've been entertaining if they weren't so inherently destructive and ruinous to both himself and everyone else around him.
He was already a mental case before the hit. Can't blame CTE for him being an a-hole.
@@johnnymason2460yeah yes you can because it made it a lot worse
@@chrismarple I don't. To me, he was a moron before the hit. The hit didn't change that any more than necessary.
@@johnnymason2460that hit wasn't his first head shot, or slappin his head off the ground. He probably suffering early signs of cte before that hit. That being said, I think it's both. Hes always been an Ahole, but its gotten worse with the more head shots an such since. Before the antics, he was on a TV show about tree houses. This is before the hit. He seemed very normal. The way he talked, walked, everything. Fast forward a few yrs, speech is more slurred, can't really talk about walk and talked cause he hasn't played. Lol. Im just saying doesn't seem the same guy.
stop being disingenuous. AB got way worse after the hit and that's a fact. Ur just being stupidly disingenuous in an attempt to be funny and its not working
@@johnnymason2460
Nothing united football more than Juju's hit on Burfect. The media panned Juju, but 99% of all fans agreed it was the most deserved reciept in nfl history
Todd Haley, who was OC for the Steelers during this time, was interviewed on McAfee recently and he said “Pittsburgh’s fans are hard to please. You can have a record setting offense and they still won’t be happy.” To which I say, he had all that talent and never got them to the Super Bowl. It doesn’t matter what they do in the regular season unless they cap it off with a championship.
If your goal is to come to Pittsburgh and not win a championship. We don’t want you.
Nobody is going to give you an atta boy for not winning a championship with more pro bowlers than all other teams. That means you got out coached when it mattered. You will hear it, because you failed.
@@WhiteG60 Ben won 2 super bowls. The first with Cowher against Seattle. The second with Tomlin against the cardinals. He played in a third with Tomlin, but lost to the Packers.
The whole point of the game is to win the championship. If you aren’t holding your team to that standard, what’s the point in watching the game?
@@WhiteG60 You are correct. As I stated, pressure from a large fan base can have an impact on winning. There’s more money in Pittsburgh winning than Cleveland. If 10% of Pittsburgh fans stop buying tickets and merchandise, that’s a lot more to lose than 10% of Cleveland fans.
The Pirates don’t have the national following that the Steelers do. Therefore, fan pressure doesn’t have as big an impact, because the Pirates winning doesn’t bring in as much money for the league as a bigger market.
So, if ownership acts like they don’t want a championship, but the customers do, the customers will let them know. If coaches come here and don’t want a championship, the fans will let them know, “Don’t come here. We won’t welcome you.”
If someone claims to be a football fan, and doesn’t know the number of Superbowls a player has won when trying to make a point. It’s not surprising if that person has no desire for their team to win a championship in the first place. This product is built to make money off of both of us. Enjoy watching your team lose.
Haley had a really bad relationship with Ben. This came up several times throughout Haley's time in Pittsburgh, so most, if not all, Steeler fans were aware of it, but almost no one talks about that, I imagine because the offense kept clicking. It is possible that Steeler fans put added pressure into Haley because of this, which is in line with the comment he made. It is also likely that this impacted the team's offensive performance, particularly in the playoffs. It is difficult to win a championship when the OC and the QB are in constant disagreement and don't get along. Add that to the defense being average at best throughout most of those years, and you have a recipe for a team good enough to make the playoffs, but not good enough to advance throughout the playoffs.
As a patriots fan I can’t help but be jealous at how the Steelers consistently draft such great players
Don’t be jealous you guys went to the Super Bowl almost all the years in this video 😭
@@xanderwynn4357and have won more rings than the Steelers in that time
@@xanderwynn4357if it wasn’t for the pats, Steelers would’ve 100% been the dynasty to beat. Sad.

Really enjoy these deep dives. Keep up the good work.
Thing is, Antonio Brown apparently had reports of having bad character issues going back to his college days and stuff came out about him from around 2012 or 13 in practice and such. Le'veon Bell was a product of really good o-line (saw it with James Conner in his first couple of years), allowing him to use his patience and wait for holes to form and wanted way too much money. And you've gotta put blame on Mike Tomlin for not doing ANYTHING about those 3 throughout the years, as well as constantly underachieving/playing down to mid QB's/no Browns Head Coach in the playoffs
Bingo!
Browns were handed the playoffs
So everyone but Big Ben is to blame ?🤨
@@jordansteele7700 Tubfrog already mentioned Ben's terrible leadership. "Those 3 throughout the years". Learn to read
Tomlin did keep it all in house for years tho which is impressive in the digital age until bells contract issues and abs complete breakdown
dang vontaze burfict is the sole reason we didn’t win a super bowl in 2015. tear bells MCL, injure ben’s throwing shoulder in the playoff game, then knockout AB in the playoff game also and somehow we almost beat the Super Bowl winning broncos…. wow
2013-2018 was probably the best time I had ever watching the steelers thru my HS year. But this video really did it’s best research that I recall everything single event
Missed chance to mention shazier and Bryant's sagas also happening at this time
You obviously weren't around for the 05-2010 years. Way better.
This content is amazing, you just made a new fan. I can't wait to deep dive your content
As a steeler fan this shit still haunts me to this day 🤣
For real! Pisses me off that they were so close.
Bro your videos are SO high quality, it's insane. Here's hoping you absolutely blow up and reach the sub count the quality of your videos deserve! ❤️
If I had a dollar for every time Le'Veon got injured in this video, I would be able to pay my rent 😂
This was so crazy sad. That Steelers team was really good, I was so happy when my Jets picked Bell but unfortunately we didn’t get the Pittsburgh Steelers Bell. But I would root hard for the Steelers when they would play against the Pats.
That’s because Bell does best when behind a very good offensive line, and he got exposed once he suited up for the Jets
Hot take as a Steelers fan…
Bell was only the player he was cause of the Steelers style of play on offense. He would have been a nobody on any of the other 31 teams
2017-2020 Saints had one of the best trio. Drew, Michael and Alvin should have definitely gone to one Super Bowl and possibly another one during Alvin's rookie season if Marcus tackles Diggs
Saints were just so unlucky it was crazy, but that 2020 year they just fell apart against the Bucs, kicked our ass twice in the reg season so it was amazing we were able to pull the win at the time
As a Packers fan our teams especially 2011 2014 and 20 were good too. Know the feeling. Especially looking back at how stacked we once we're on offense like every wr we had
As a Yinzer Stillers fan, I knew something like this would happen eventually. Excellent jorb as always, @TubFrog.
Great video !!!
There's one word that comes to mind when I think of this era of Steelers football: hubris
Yeah. Social Media definitely helped blow up those egos.
Good video. As a Packers fan I know the feeling too. Our offenses were great but our d or special teams always let us down
I'm also a Packers fan. After the 2010 Super Bowl, I was pissed when the organization stopped investigating in the defense and slowly let the receiving corps decline. Days of Our Steelers was pretty Goddamned entertaining though 🤣🤣🤣
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR ONE ABOUT THESE GUYS
This video is great, as a Steelers fan I'm unbelievably depressed having relived this
This is why Lamar’s rookie season will always be one of my favorite ravens season 🤣 the Steelers really blew it down the stretch
💯😂
If my chargers didn’t blow it against Lamar late in that reg szn we would’ve been the #1 seed and wouldn’t have had to go to NE. smh typical chargers
The final regular season game of that year will always be a Ravens classic! The “million-dollar interception.”
2018 chargers no call false start and block behind the back. 14 pts. Saints phantom Pi.
Rings?
As a steeler fan Ty for acknowledging this🗣️💯 bc it feels like everyone forgot how crazy are offense was wit these 3 all literally top 5 at their positions respectively
Laveon Bell is a complete boss for that dui quote
great vid dude
I'm a Ravens fan & I asked myself that same damn question they put up outstanding numbers all three of them
I’ve said this a bunch of times as a Steelers fan, but if Ryan Shazier doesn’t get paralyzed I think that team doesn’t lose to Jacksonville later on in that season
Steelers we’re extremely talented in those days it’s crazy how they failed to win a Super Bowl 🤦♂️
@@EdAlva-nf2jl Yeah well I’m just saying 🤷♂️
I think what hurt the most about this period of time was seeing the Patriots absolutely run away with top dg status for as long as they did, and knowing that the Steelers had everything they needed right in front of them to keep our momentum from the two championships the previous decade.
I'm always gonna remember this time for the sheer disappointment of my Steelers never deciding to be as good as everyone knew they were supposed to be.
It was the defense that sold us. We’d put up 35 but give up 38
Those Steelers teams would find themselves in shootouts, it was almost like Peyton Manning's early to mid 2000's Colts until he won the big game. Super offense, but bad defense.
idk man, this Brady guy seems pretty good he's in a lot of your videos. I bet he's got a bright nfl career ahead of him!
I heard the bum retired already
Being from the Burgh.....this is a touchy subject for us and also really breaks all of our hearts!!💯😥😔😔its gonna be awhile folks!
(30:15) I was at this game. First game my dad ever took me too. I’ll never forget when shazier got injured bengals fans were celebrating. Felt so good to see the look on their faces when the Steelers pulled out the W.
Bro how do you not have more subs? It’s insane. Your content is obviously super high quality and I’m sure that takes a lot of effort. I hope you get the subs and views you deserve, and soon.
You're not going to get many Subs with that headline and friggn' thumbnail!
i would argue Phillip Rivers LT and Antionio Gates vastly more talented, if they didn't drop Schottenheimer I'm sure that's a Superbowl trio right there.
the only player of the 3 i can see an argument of being a better talent would be Big Ben
Chargers always botch the head coach. Marty was the best thing to happen to them until AJ and Spanos killed him off.
Brady, Moss and Welker werent a bad trio either. For the Chargers Fouts, Jefferson / Chandler and Winslow with Joiner to boot was pretty impressive.
Kelly, Reed, and Thomas
Not to mention Bruce Smith and others definitely should have won a superbowl
@@ckobo84 can't even disagree. to be honest its kinda crazy that Brady Moss Welks didnt win tho i had forgotten about that XD
I was too young to remember Ben’s 2 Super Bowls but old enough to remember the loss to Green Bay. 2016 and 2017 seasons + the events with Le’Veon and AB that followed were complete heartbreak. I feel guilty complaining about a team that’s won 6 super bowls but I just wish to see another in my lifetime.
Just proves that every super team can look great on paper, but can ever reach their goals. (cough cough my favorite NFL team the Eagles and the Nets cough cough)
If they had the defense they do now with Watt and Minkah, this team would've won some rings. The offense carried the defense back then.
It is crazy to think right that AB was perhaps one of the best route runners in the league, hell he could still be even NOW, and his hands were just amazing too the catches he made jesus
Yeah, even though he hasn't played at his peak for a while now, he'd certainly still be a top20 WR in the league, if he played. He wouldn't quite average the 110ypg he used to, but the 77ypg his last season was pretty decent regardless.
This video is legit just Urinating Tree's hell and I'm all for it.
Simple. We missed out on Akeem Hicks, Sean Lee, Richard Sherman, Darrelle Revis, and Kam Chancellor in the 2007-2014 drafts. 🤦🏾♂️
The thing nobody will admit except real pit fans is it’s on Tomlin, he couldn’t/wouldn’t adjust his old zone blitz defensive scheme vs modern offenses and elite QBs like Brady, you had James Harrison matched up in the slot with Julian Edelman and TB shredded them every year in the post season
“Most talented trio in NFL history” is a stretch. A huge one. Aikman Smith Irvin. Montana Rice Craig. Heck even another Pittsburgh trio, Bradshaw, Harris, Swann were light years ahead of these three clowns.
Wow you might be the first person on the internet I've seen to give Swann the credit he deserves. Though I disagree that they were overall more talented, I always feel like Swann is extremely underrated by most current fans.
As a Steelers fan I love that you made this, but at the same time refuse to watch it cause of the pain 😞
I'm not going to lie. It was hard to watch my Steelers from 2010-2021. I love my Steelers but damnnn!!!! Our D wasn't as dominant as before. We shall see.
"A mentally stable Antonio Brown"
Bell isn't technically retired yet.
As a Steelers fan this is gonna keep me up at night till I die
Hey I suggested this video! You are the man! I love your content!
*Peyton Manning, Marvin Harrison and Edgerrin James*: are we a joke to you?
Losing Ryan Shazier was maybe the most important factor in the 2017 season
I’ll never get over that jaguar’s game… never.
love the long form content. i usually have youtube on autoplay in the background. cool to stay on topic for so long instead of switching to some stupid twerking video or something
Satisfying to see
As a Steelers fan 2 things:
• there are not a lot of videos about us so i appreciate this
• I hate the patriots simply because of that Jesse James catch (and other times they crushed us) but we would’ve won the Super Bowl if they ruled that correctly
They invested too heavily in their offense and had a couple of high-risk players and didn't invest enough in their defense. The Steelers defense needed some help too. Maybe if they did that, they might have had another ring. I always looked at this Steeler team as very streaky. They kind of went by how the Killer B's played. Once their egos got the better of them, things were not good and they started getting frustrated and egos got in the way. Honestly, Mike Tomlin deserves some credit for dealing with Antonio Brown as long as he did, I would not have even touched him no matter how big a player he became. I just wish Bell would have stuck around; it was selfish for him to pull a holdout like he did.
that ryan succop missed kick is my earliest vivid NFL memory. i was 10 or 11 and i remember my dad saying succop was going to choke, and then he did and i started crying. ever since that day my dad has always called a kicker choking the game “pulling a succop” because of it.
I started watching football bc of Antonio Brown, I was 10 years old, and I was a Seahawks fan too. But I just loved AB I thought he was so cool.
So it was super sad to see his downfall, I looked up to him.
I remember I made a whole google slide about him for school and everything 😂
24 yard pass play to the guy who cooked up my big mac last thursday💀
You forgot to mention the most stable and consistent member of the killer B's entirely. Chris fckin Boswell
Most underrated on yt
The wild car game vs Cincy is still the craziest game I’ve ever seen
An alleged rapist, a crazy man, and an awful rapper walk into a bar…
The fact that u still feel u have to bring up that Ben was falsely accused of rape shows the bias mindset u have. Last time I checked innocent until proved guilty. There r plenty of real criminals on the NFL that the NFL and alot of fans like to close their eyes to the true real criminal players. There r players who are for real players with issues. There r are actually women who do get sexualy assaulted but there r also women out there who try to make a buck of players. They could nor find any true evidence that Ben assaulted the woman. So give it a rest. U are not God quit trying to act like u r.
@@robertacampbell5382 I said alleged.
Why u still bring that up
I didn't bring it up. Someone else listed it and I responded to it.
What’s sad is that 2 of them played their way out of the hof. Bell because he was greedy and Brown because he became a crazy person.
Brown still gon make it
brown making it
Idk. A couple of years ago I said he would probably still get in despite his behavior, but now? He’s done nothing but build a case against himself getting in. Remember, TO and Moss couldn’t even get in on their first ballot because of their “issues” and they’re “issues” were nothing compared to Brown’s. Heck, Hines Ward isn’t even in the hall yet.
@@ErikCB912 Oh I didn't know they looked at personal life I thought It was just stats but still I think he will get in maybe even if he is like a 3rd ballot or something (I don't actually know if 3rd ballot is a thing but I'm guessing it should be) His stats are just too damn good
@@drip5308 if it’s bad enough, they absolutely will factor in personal life. Why else would Michael Vick not be in the hall of fame? He’s arguably the best running QB the game has ever seen.
So fun watching this duo as a Steelers fan until it came to playoff time
I am a lions fan. But I was loved this team. Ab went to cmu and bell msu. It was dope to see them both play in college.
Leveon's issues weren't even thay bad. He just wanted to get paid and smoke weed lol
Cant always get what you want
He also tried being a rapper and was awful at it
I keep seeing this on my feed and I’ll say I lived through this as I grew up on Pittsburgh so I don’t need to watch this. Make more videos that show up in my feed bruh damn
I’ll get on that

I know it was dirty, but that absolutely atomic block was one of the most satisfying things I’ve ever seen on a football field.
as a ravens fan, this was very satisfying to watch
Thank you Tomlin!
As much drama as there was, if the steelers had even a slightly below average defense, I think they could have won it all. Their offense was on another level. The defenses of the killer bees era (especially the secondary) were downright horrendous.
It’s sad cause there will be a whole generation of young people that will have no idea how insanely good this trio was. Was literally like if CMC, Justin Jefferson and Justin Herbert were on the same offense.
As a Steelers fan, despite all this drama and the snowball effect, I'm just glad we've stayed a contending team through the years. Really sloppy at times, but somehow still pull through.
lack of upgrades, just like green bay, you can be the best at drafting and sometimes it's not enough to get you over the hump. heck my eagles drafted well but you need upgrades to get you the hump which is why the 2017 eagles won the superbowl, they finally made upgrades and it worked.
Karma, greed, and the fact Brown went completely insane.
36:30 had me dead. It just kept going.
As a Steelers fan this story hurts my soul. I always wondered what would happen if we had managed to keep Cowher though. I don't think he'd have put up with the drama
Just a little tip: stats like at 24:49 where you put the - infront of them makes it seem that they're being compared to something and that these numbers are below the comparison numbers, which I don't think was the case at any point. Just very confusing
My only critique at all was the downplaying of bell when he finally game in his rookie year. The dude was in talks for rookie of the years with almost identical stats as Eddy Lacy (winner of award) with 4 less games played. Even tho bell got better, I’d say he did a solid job of establishing himself as a marquee part of the team. Great video tho, love the attention to detail!
As a ravens fan I had to watch this
