I like the guy, but the Steelers brass is absolutely wonderful and knowing when to get rid of people. When was the last time we got rid of anyone that ended up doing anything? Plax? Well he wanted to leave on his own accord. Joey had a terrible year. anyone ever heard Kimo Von Oelhoffen’s name mentioned recently. Even back to when we got rid of Kevin Greene, Rod Woodson, etc.

And on the flip side of that coin, they’re great at drafting mediocre players and turning them into superstars.

This is the reason that the Steelers are always a top-tier team year after year.
