The receiving core this Steelers team had....man oh man. Hines Ward, Antwan Randle El, Mike Wallace, AB, AND Emmanuel Sanders. Man I wish they could of been together longer.
And thts the reason we lost to the packers tht year in the superbowl did u see the offense they didn't even score we should have never let go of Santino Holmes the Hines was hurt going into the SB Randel el wasn't getting no play because young Antino Brown was balling but there was no real experience at the WR position for Ben in tht superbowl vs Greenbay which cost us we put too much on the Defense just like this game and Arod smoked us think about it
Troy was a beast. He was everywhere on that field. He covered ground faster than any other safety. It was so fun to watch him because he was always in on darn near every defensive play. I loved how the coaches just let him be Troy. He was able to read the eyes of the quarterbacks better than anybody I’ve ever seen. Loved his speech when he was inducted into the Football HOF. He was so humble & a class act.
Chad is so underrated he deserves the HOF he was in the toughest division in the toughest era for receivers, and he still was a dominant receiver including being on a run first balanced offense
I wasn't a football fan at the time, but, I've got to say this, I may be a Bengals fan, but, that throw Roethlisberger made to Mendenhall is the definition of never giving up on a play
Isn't it fn funny how a famous man "any man really" can have their reputation destroyed because a drunk/high girl with $$$ flashing in her eyes gets mad because the night didn't end the way she wanted it to? That wanna-be gold-digger in Georgia was so fn full of shit! Photos show her still hanging around and on Ben after the rape/sexual misconduct was supposed to have happened!! I guess women often hang out with their rapists after huh? The police took one look and said it was bs! No evidence at all except what was there to prove she was lying! Then there was the $$$ girl in Lake Tahoe (Georgia and Lake Tahoe.... two places known to love Ben & the Steelers!!!) who had like 10 co-workers/ hotel employees come out in favor of Ben saying the girl was lying and that nothing happened! Yet almost 20yrs later lying assholes like you continue to spread bs and slander a great person, let alone a great NFL QUARTERBACK!
Antwan Randle El had a lot of great catches with the Steelers! Also he was their gadget man too! He could run, pass, catch, probably punt and kick too if they needed it! His throw to Ward #86 in the SuperBowl was a thing of beauty! People need to talk about him as one of the best receivers in Steeler's history. @06:35 the one hand catch was clutch!
@@fredleeland2464 I did not know that but I looked it up and after some confusing stat sheets I found it! Damn! Dude had 1650 punt return yds and 1742 kick return yds! He was 31yds short of having the all-time kick return record too! He took back 4punts for TD's but only 1 kickoff. Thanks for the heads up on the stats. Almost forgot he was that much of a badass on special teams.
@04:24 the Pick6 where TROY#43 picks it and runs it back, then dives and stretches out for the TD is one of the greatest plays in Steelers & NFL history!
@@cksu1186 Troy was special, but Reed was simply a better Safety. Both amazing players but there’s not maybe defensive player rankings or DB rankings that have Troy ahead of Reed.
as sick as that pick-six by Troy was, he was never the same player after that. He hurt his ankle and you can see him limping off. He lost a step after that injury.
Troy Polamolu,Lawrence Timmons,James Harrison,Carson Palmer,Hines Ward,Terrell Owens,and Chad Ochocinco in this game. Lots of Memories from these players
If it weren’t for the most fluke pick and career ever the Steelers might have 7 rings. Just think about it what are the chances that the patriots former quarterback took that shot to the chest that nearly ended his career and when he got healthy the patriots kept Brady in
The AFC back then was literally just a four team race. Until Pat Mahomes won the SB in 2019, there were only four AFC quarterbacks who won a SB since 2001! These quarterbacks being: Joe Flacco, Ben Roethlisberger, Tom Brady, and Peyton Manning.
Defense really does win championships. Compare the defensive built Steeler teams from 2005-2010 to the Killer B teams from 2014-2018 and which of them won more playoff games? Three super bowl appearances, two super bowl wins compared to one conference championship appearance. Obviously great offenses can carry a team to the big one, but those Steeler teams are proof its much better to have an average offense and a great defense than vice versa.
@09:59 SERIOUSLY that is possibly one of the BEST throws a quarterback could make and the receiver did their part too! AMAZING!! Perfect ball placement! Dropped it in on a dime!
When people tell me “man bens offensive line is gonna be garbage this year” this game is a prime example that Ben didn’t have an o line for almost 10 years of his career
But when he did have an awesome line…. Look at the numbers…. And during that time the defense was the weakness…imagine a defense like that, a healthy o-line, a more experienced and motivated Ben…. Let’s not forget the running game…that’s a dangerous mixture.
Up until 14:30 I was going to say Lamar Woodley was looking like the player of the game. I miss Polamalu. He made me enjoy watching Pittsburgh on Defense more than on Offense.
@@ShinefortheCam bullshit he was. Carson was playing at an MVP level with Arizona just 4 years later. This Bengals team around him was trash (as was the coaching). TO and Chad cost Carson 10 or 12 picks that year
This era of AFC North is why I have nothing but respect for the Ravens and Bengals. Each team could've succeeded in any division, Steelers and Ravens usually led the way but Bengals always picked up great players and had their moments too
The only person that didn't look happy after Troy's last INT was Lebeau, he looked like he was ready to pop a vessel... I loved Lebeau but cmon man, everybody was happy but you 😆. I know he's the godfather of Defense and all but dang , take it easy hahaha
2 things come to mind every time I watch old Steeler highlight and I see Rashard Mendenhall…. #1 That fumble in the SB and that we could have had fucking Chris Johnson but we selected Mendenhall one pick before the Titans selected him….
14:38 this right here was really dumb. Ik what he was doing but that’s really putting ur team in a bad position. For one, you got the pick and the field position. Just sit down and let ur offense do the work. Secondly, you already dealing with injuries. Don’t risk ur squad with giving urself another one. Ngl, he did phenomenal in this game but that’s how u keep getting hurt. Gotta play smarter
Ayo plamer was seriously deep fried Doo Doo lmfaooooooo Everytime I watched the Bengals that year that man let me down like seriously sum of the picks were god awful it seem like he was just throwing it to the other team lol
@@mjf2891 Carson was done with Mike Brown and Marvin Lewis. He decided he was leaving mid-season, and was clearly just phoning it in once the season was lost. Can’t say I blame him. Mike Brown and his family are all complete losers

Typical Bungles butthurt at the end over another shellacking. Also, how about the WR corp of Ward and Randle El with pre-paychecks AB and Mike Wallace? We been doing it for years.
@@ShinefortheCam Whatever. Steelers are 13-2 in the last 15 meetings, scoring a combined 400 pts vs Bungles 264. Anyway, nobody got punked by Vontaze more than the Bungles themselves. Only the Bungles would have allowed such a disgrace to wear an NFL uniform and they got what they deserved. With Burfucked and poor ol Marv gone and Joe Burrow in the fold I hope their fortunes are changing for the better. Now they just need to get rid of the ugliest uniforms in the league.
Just imagine how much more highlight this man would’ve put out there if the steeler didn’t force him out of retirement!!! The Pittsburgh Steelers did this man wrong and nobody is talking about it!!!! I was surprised the Steelers was ssssoo ok with this, and as a huge bears fan even I wasn’t ok with it. I just wish Troy polamalu would’ve played 5more years just to beat Pittsburgh out of the playoffs and than retiring just to say he wanted to treat them like sh!t the same way he retired.
Nah, most teams would miss the playoffs with those two as their primary receivers on 2010. This was their final season as starters in the NFL, and TO’s final season entirely. They were both done at this point.
Dang Polamalu was so good he locked up the DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR 😳😳
😂
😂😂
I think they meant like locking in his spot to get defensive player of the year
How he do that
