The Pittsburgh Steelers had an epic Hall of Fame weekend back in August, which featured the enshrinement of a number of their own. From safety Troy Polamalu and guard Alan Faneca to scout and executive Bill Nunn and former head coach Bill Cowher, it was a black and gold extravaganza. And it provided a great legacy-building moment for the franchise.
Cowher, who preceded current head coach Mike Tomlin now 15 years ago, jokingly suggested that he was hoping to call a couple of blitzes during the Hall of Fame Game. Tomlin took him literally, as he affirmed while speaking to Pat McAfee on Thursday.
