When it comes to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ dynasty of the 1970s, names like Terry Bradshaw, Lynn Swann, John Stallworth and Franco Harris stand out offensively, and rightfully so. There are four Super Bowl MVPs among that group.
But one name — and one touchdown — is often forgotten about when it comes to those dynasties.
That would be tight end Randy Grossman and his 7-yard touchdown catch from Bradshaw early in Super Bowl X to tie the game. In fact, Grossman scored a touchdown before Swann or Stallworth did in a Super Bowl and was just the second touchdown pass of Bradshaw’s career in the big game, having hit tight end Larry Brown for a 4-yard touchdown the season prior in Super Bowl IX against the Minnesota Vikings.
