    In 1997, after a triller earlier in the season, the Steelers would absolutely DEMOLISH the Ravens. Behind the Steeler Defense & Jerome Bettis, the Steelers would flourish, in what would be an epic season. Despite the AFCC loss, this is one of my favorite ones to look back on.

      We had some great teams in the 90s and the way the game was played back then was so much better because there wasn't so many crybaby punks then and the refs just let them play most of the time and the Steelers D was very feared and if we had a great QB then we would have won a few SBs in the 90s and early 2000s....

      Kordell had his good games like this one, but he had a habit of having poor first quarter performances. He admitted that he would get so jacked up to play that it took him a full quarter to settle down enough to think straight. Kordell had a strong arm, but he was painfully inaccurate. He would over and under throw his receivers and he also bounced balls off of the turf. When Heinz Field was finished being built, Mr. Dan Rooney said, “We like to think that this is the house that Kordell built.”
      1997 was Kordell’s best season. He totaled 32 TD’s through the ground and air on his way to leading the Steelers to the AFC championship game. He earned his first and only pro bowl selection in 2021 and was named the AFC Player of the Year. In 2002, Kordell lost his starting position after an 0-2 start. The Steelers were playing the Browns and were down 13-6 in the fourth quarter and Cowher had enough of watching Stewart ineptitude. He benched Stewart and put Tommy Maddox in. Maddox lead them to an overtime victory.
      Kordell went on to play for a few more years with the Bears and the Ravens. The only time he saw the field with the Ravens was as a punter.
      I saw Tommy Maddox signing autographs during the 2002 training camp. When I got to where he was sitting I told him that I didn’t come for an autograph. I came to tell him that he will be starting by the end of the first quarter of the season. Tommy was expectedly diplomatic about his answer. That’s when I leaned toward him and said, “Mark my words. You WILL be the starting QB by the end of the first quarter.”
      I’ve often said that Kordell could have been a pro bowl wide receiver.

    Stewarts career was ruined. New OCs every year and high churn of WRs.

    For being a " defense minded HC " the one thing Tomlin never seems to put on the field like HC Cowher is the tenacious defense that swarms the ball.. Tomlin is overrated, he was given a SB winning team.. Pittsburgh should have had 3 more SB wins with the team he was given by coach Cowher.....
