So sad to hear this. Another Steeler that should be in the HOF. Andy was great before the Steelers were great. And he was a big part of building, and being a part of the dynasty that was the 70's Steelers. Great player, even better man.
Pittsburgh Steeler Legendary LB
Andy Russell has d. at 82.
7X Pro Bowl,
2X Super Bowl Champ,
12 seasons w/The Pittsburgh Steelers.
I saw #34 play at Three Rivers Stadium in The 1970's
w/The Super Steelers.
Andy Russell was welcomed into
Heaven by Chuck Noll & Myron Cope.

Excellent Zach .... building blocks of a pro!
#Steelers rookie center Zach Frazier on what heβs focusing on four practices into OTAs.
βFirst and foremost, getting the snap back there good. Focusing on cadence β¦ just really everything. Snap, cadence, assignment, technique.β

as the late, great Tunch Ilkin always said, "Hines Ward, tougher than woodpecker lips!"
Congratulations to #Steelers WR Hines Ward for being nominated to the @ProFootballHOF !
βI decided that the best way for me to help my team and protect myself was to hit rather than be hit.Β So I decided I was gonna hit you before you hit me. In our style of offense back then we were predominantly a run-oriented team.Β We didnβt pass much.Β So as a receiver, you either had to block or be cut.Β I decided that I was gonna take my fate in my own hands by being the best blocking receiver that I could be.β

We were teammates at Syracuse U. Love this guy. At a tryout, he kicked a 72-yard FG with his right leg, and a 55-yarder with his LEFT leg! In jeans!...yes jeans!
Happy birthday to the Steelersβ all-time leading scorer!
Gary Anderson also has the 3rd most points in NFL history (2,434).
To put that into perspective, Chris Boswell will score his 1,000th point this season.
If he stays on pace, he will match Anderson in the year 2037.

Larry "Boss" Brown. Made two DE's literally quit rushing the passer after the first quarter. They played "draws and screens" for the rest of the game. I guess getting punched in the chest so hard by Larry that their sternum touched their spine will do that to you....Happy birthday Boss!

And how is this not a trifecta of HOFers? I've said it many times on the air, and Tunch said it even more. Put Andy in the HOF. He deserves it!
Andy Russell was a Steelers team captain ten years in a row from 1967-1976 (a team record) and played in 7 Pro Bowls. He was voted to six consecutive Pro Bowls from 1967-1976. He was the team's defensive MVP in 1968 and 1970 and the team MVP in 1971. He's also a 2X SB champion (IX, X).

He's the uncrowned single season sack leader regardless...he got robbed in Baltimore...rather than take away from Michael, acknowledge the mistake in Baltimore....give Watt his due!
Is #Steelers TJ Watt now the NFL single season sack leader?!? Mistake found from Week 8 vs Dallas in Michael Strahan's total found 23 years later!

That holding call was ridiculous. I've seen more holding in square dancing than this....
Wanted to go back and look at the A22 on the Justin Fields throw to George Pickens.
It's even better than I expected. Tremendous accuracy down the field on the move. #Steelers
Absolute DIME to Pickens. Can't throw this any better. A real shame a holding penalty negated it.

October 7, 1979 at Cleveland Municipal Stadium. Rocky Bleier runs right up the middle behind Pittsburgh center Mike Webster for a 70 yard TD. This was the longest rushing TD of Rocky Bleier's 11 year NFL career. The Steelers beat the Browns 51-35.
