Same here. He was not participating much for awhile. I wasn't sure if it was because of how his career ended where the Steelers kind of forced him to retire or it was him just totally focusing on family after

Watt has not finished his career yet. All those guys above have completed their careers and 3 of them are in the HOF. Harrison is eligible in the next year or 2 I believe. That’s the difference.
@@riccievans8447 Watt is DPOY and should've gotten it last season. He is the greatest OLB in Steelers history, and one of the best to do it, if he keeps playing this way, and gets even better, he will be as good as Lawrence Taylor when his career is over.
Lifelong Steelers fan, grew up 20 miles north of Pittsburgh. I remember the first 4 Superbowl wins. There is no better Defense lineman than Mean Joe Greene. I wished Rod would have ended his NFL career with Pittsburgh because he deserved that, but the 2 others. Harrison (Mr bad intentions), and Troy were part of one of the best defenses ever 08, and I believe won the Superbowl 40, because of that Defense
James Harrison scares me. He comes into the store I work at sometimes. He’s very polite and nice and all. He’s just so fucking terrifying. I love him so much
@@ThankGodImBlack370 Inner guilt of what? Harrison is just an intimidating looking dude. Especially if you watched him play his entire career and know that he's one tough SOB.
The looks on Rod, James, and Troy's faces when Joe Greene speaks is the ultimate sign of respect. Its like the elder statesman dropping pearls of wisdom and they are grateful for every one.
This is 19 minutes of pure, unalloyed gold. My favorite moments: When Troy said that when he was playing, he was defending "you guys", meaning the Steeler greats that came before him. And every time Mr. Greene was speaking.
If you're reading this Troy THANK YOU AGAIN I remember when I took my 4 year old twin sons to a Steelers game. My sons both had on Troy Polamalu jerseys and after the game we went to the players parking lot, since we had access because my sons cousin Keiwan Ratliff was playing for the Steelers at the time. While in the parking lot Troy was surrounded by so many grown-ups trying to get his autograph. Most likely so they could turn around and sell the item. After Troy opened the door for his wife he looked over the crowd and saw my 2 sons and I about 25 feet away off in the distance. He then summoned for us to come to him and he then signed both of their jerseys! They still have those jerseys to this very day. My sons Bryce and Bronx are now 20 years old and in college.
When Mike Tomlin says, "The standard is the standard!". He is talking about Joe Greene. And this short video gave us a glimpse of why. #Steelersforever
Troy was a really really special player, that whole era had a lot of legends in it but Troy moved soo fast and hit so hard, with the hands of a WR but he’s chillen at safety (SS I think)… it’s crazy you never realize how lucky you are to watch players like Troy and Ed Reed on defense till they’re gone but I remember a lot of sundays with friends and family that were great cuz of players like these guys
Troys the best safety ive seen play the game. I feel lucky being able to see such a great player. His snap anticipation was insane.hard hitter. Ball hawk. Run stopper. Everything and anything the team needed Troy delivered. Much Love from a lifelong 9er fan
His legacy should never be forgotten period. Dude is a hall of fame defensive back was phenomenal dB. He then became arguably the best defensive coordinator ever and was a top one in the league for decades.
i was so happy i got to watch woodson and then later troy and harrison, was born in 78 so i missed out on mean joe but watching vids of them from their day, something magical these are the best players from the different eras. proud of my steelers and im proud to be born in that area and being a fan
They were all phenomenal, but Troy is the most naturally talented of them all. Troy might be one of the most talented people who has ever lived. I’d put him right up there with. Mozart and Rembrandt.
So nostalgic watching these guys talk about the game. Reminds me of all the times my dad brought me to his friend’s houses to watch the games when I was little. Just hanging out with the guys, making lifelong memories. Formative years for sure
The fantasic four! All of these men put fear in their opponents soul. As a dedicated fan of 50 years, I watched all of you in awe over the years. Thank you all for your service to our great team. Mostly thank you for the memories. It is always fun wathing a Steeler keeping the opponents team doctors busy on Sunday
Lambert is my all time favorite player. 1976 Defensive Player of the Year. The 76 Steeler defense was the best defense in the history or football. 5 shutouts in the last 9 games. 28 points allowed during those 9 games and just 138 points allowed for the entire season. The whole starting defense for the AFC Pro Bowl that year wore a black helmet with a golden yellow stripe down the middle. 85 Bears had the second best defense in history. Donnie Shell was never Defensive Player of the Year or at least I don't think he was.
The best video steelers have ever posted love it. 4 absolute legends who helped make the Steelers who they are today and helped us as fans gain the love for the organization as we do today. Also Troy=GREATEST OF ALL TIME ❤
@@dlc8506 When should a 2x SB Champion LB, Defense Player of the year, 2x All Pro, 5x pro bowler, leader in force fumbles, and the best, longest and most critical pick 6 in SB history get in? 😄

This was glorious my three favorite players all at the table...my three favorite Steelers all talking about that Steeler Pride. I think every generation of Steeler Players coming first day in to work should all be sitting in a room watching highlights of these guys and here these stories so that they could see first hand who's backs they are standing on. No throwing, no tackling no nothing on the field. 12 to 24 hours of Steeler legends and their highlights, then you get to take the field. Especially Defensive Players coming in!! Go Steelers.... Black & Gold 4 Life!!
So fortunate to have watched all Super Bowls and all these players! My fave is Jack Lambert! 💖🏈 He didn't take any crap from anybody!! So much talent for so many years!!😊
My all time favorite player was Mr. Lambert also. He sure didn't take any crap, he dished it out in spades. Was the Steelers #2 draft pick in 74. That draft was the best ever for any team in the history of football. The Steelers drafted 4 Hall of Famers in that draft. Swann #1, Lambert #2, Webster #3 and Stallworth #4. Such an amazing draft. Lambert use to tell Swann all the time that he should have been #1. Of course all Swann could do was laugh nervously while looking away.
wow loved this so much. 4 of the best to ever play the game. There were so many great players back in the day. Jack Lambert, Kevin Greene, way to many to name.
I grew up just outside of Latrobe and my dad took me to training camp one year…probably around ‘74-‘76…and as the players came out on to the field, you maybe had a minute to snag an autograph. As Joe came out the crowd that rushed him was immediate. I moved with the crowd but I was a very small kid, a very small Asian(ish) kid. I was very intimidated by the whole scene. When Joe stopped to sign autographs, the closest I got was 3-4 bodies deep. I was looking up through a blockade of Steelers fans catching an occasional gimps of Joe’s face through the swaying shoulders. But then I see a huge hand parting this sea of bodies as it came directly towards me. He grabbed the pen and paper from my hand and I was one of the few autographs he signed that session. That had a HUGE impact on me as a kid. Joe is and will always be my favorite Steeler.
Man growing up as a kid in the 90s it was all about Steelers football, but not only that it was about learning what it meant to be a Steelers fan and why it was such a special team. I love that Troy is being more a part of the franchise.
What a gem of a video. I am old enough to have seen all of these guys' full careers. One of the perks of being a Steelers fan is that as we approach an uncertain future with this team, we can count on a certain level of consistency from them, the game itself is the highest priority for the Steelers organization. Secondly, even in lean years, we have a lot of greatness to look back upon and enjoy.
I was a really small, skinny little Asian kid growing up near Latrobe in the early 70s. Like most, I was a Steelers fanatic. Must have been 75 or 76, I was 7 or 8, during training camp as the players came out the fans would chase them for autographs. Of course when Joe Greene came out the crowds sprinted. I raced as fast as I could but found myself way back, 3 or 4 deep looking up trying to catch a peek through the seas of bodies, arms, notepads and pens. I was so excited but so disappointed at the same time. Then, almost like divine intervention, the sea of bodies split right in front of me, and this HUGE hand reached way back to me, grabbed my notepad I was clutching tightly, took it, signed it, then parted the sea of bodies and handed his autograph back to me. As much as I love TP, Rod, and JH there is only one greatest Steeler of all time in my book.
This was absolutely awesome to watch!!! 4 of the best to ever wear the black and gold sitting around and talking about the game they loved and we as fans loved watching them play!!!
What an awesome group of individuals. I’ve been a fan long enough to see all of them play! This is more than just a team. Listening to these generations of players talk about being a part, they all say the same thing- it’s a family , a group working together for the same cause.
There is such a wealth of knowledge on display at this table. Hopefully the young Steelers playing today are listening and analyzing this intently. #HereWeGo
Awesome table talk with some true greats! Love the admiration, respect and reverence Harrison clearly exhibits when looking at joe. You know your a tough s.o.b. when a guy as tough as James shows that kind of respect.
To bad, you missed out on the best defensive unit to have ever played. There has never been anything like the Steel Curtain. The Steelers got my attention at the age of 10 when Franco made that catch against the Raiders in the Steelers first ever playoff victory. Next game they lose in the AFC championship to the undefeated Dolphins. Started watching them regularly in 73 and then a die hard fan at the beginning of 74. Been one ever since. The problem with watching the Steel Curtain has been comparing Steeler defenses since then with them. Which is not fair but still happens. The Steelers have had some incredibly talented players since then. But never had so many at the same time as they did back then. The Steelers of the 70's had 9 Hall of Famers that all played at the same time. The 74 draft had 4 of them drafted that year. Swann #1, Lambert was #2, Webster was #3 and Stallworth was #4. How amazing was that draft? Lambert use to tell Swann all the time that he should have been #1. hahahhaha Of course the only thing Swann could do was nervously laugh while looking away. hahahhaha
I’m so glad that Troy is participating in more Steeler events. He’s such a gem.
Favorite player of all time super humble and still top 5 safety ever.

The Steelers of the 70's had 9 Hall of Famers that all played at the same time. The 74 draft had 4 of them drafted that year. Swann #1, Lambert was #2, Webster was #3 and Stallworth was #4. How amazing was that draft? Lambert use to tell Swann all the time that he should have been #1. hahahhaha Of course the only thing Swann could do was nervously laugh while looking away. hahahhaha
I stand corrected. The Steelers of the 70's now have 10 Hall of Famers that played on the same team. I just found out the Donnie Shell just got in.
I'm a Jets fan but I'm old I got to see Mean Joe Green play and Woodson Troy and James. They gave me a bunch of great Sunday memories. 👍🏾
4 all-time greats! Proud to be a lifelong Steeler fan!
These 4 gentlemen represents what it means to be a Steeler and their play making abilities brought integrity and pride to the Steeler's franchise!!😎👊🏽
