Yes. That's who Stallworth is. Or perhaps I should say, that is who Stallworth had become by that time. After all, this was filmed years after he had retired from the NFL and had subsequently co-founded a very successful aerospace engineering firm. The aerospace industry is extremely competitive, and it is full of very smart and very confident people. Any pretenders will exposed in an instant. The fact that Stallworth was able to lead and gain the respect of others within the aerospace industry says a lot about the guy.
I love how the "old guys" (Stall & Harris) simply radiate calm confidence and wisdom. They have had years to reflect upon, and to think about, the things that are really important to win - on what it really takes to be successful.
Those men make me proud to be part of Steeler Nation! I would hope all the rookies watch and learn what it takes to wear the black and gold with pride. Thank you for doing this and letting us see what it was like through the eyes of the men who made it happen.
Holmes arguably the greatest catch in Super Bowl history on the tips of his toes fully stretch out, with the game on the line! Willie Parker longest run from scrimmage in super bowl history! Of course Franco and Stallworth their names say it all!
Stallworth's 2 late catches in SB 14 were something to see and right when the Steelers really really needed them. The first one especially. Double covered, head backwards over the shoulder. Electrifying catch. His comments here at the end about quiet confidence is so true. These guys would score a clutch and important TD and just toss the ball to the ref. They acted like they fully intended for that to happen and had been there before. You can tell he probably winces at all dancing and showboating now after every score.
And when they said quiet confidence, our group of fans, these guys had us feeling the same way. As friends out of state and living in different cities, we stayed tight, finding out what city tv was carrying the only game that mattered, The Steelers. Like Franco said from 33 to that moment The Steelers were loosers. As fans, we grew up with pride, we may loose, but youse guys are going to pay. YA Tittle, sitting on his helmut, blood steaming down his face, NYG winning the game, but our defense made him pay. Every week thru the season the Sports front pages, 2, one had a full page size player with Cleveland, Green Bay, Rams, Baltimore, etc. The page on the right had this Steeler about 3 inches tall. So, when the Imaculate Reception came and changed NFL History forever, we had been supporters all the years before, now we stood even prouder, yea, we're the Steelers, what you got to say? Perhaps the greatest year, 1976, the Steelers had all parts of the team clicking after starting 1- 4 early losses. Terry was almost killed or paralized by a player who earlier had tried an awkward kick on Terry's helmut less head, picked him up, carried him about 10 yards, after the whistle had blown, and then turned Terry upside down and pile drove him head first into the ground. TBs limp body and both arms and legs were frantically quivering , shaking all over. A play today that might find the perp in cuffs removed from the field. The Steelers had perhaps the best team in football and had a chance to become Back to back to back SB Champions. The defense finninshed the season with five shutouts and a stingy 9.9 PPG, Franco and Rocky were both 1000 yard rushers, Stalworth and Swann with Bradshaw and Krewchek had just shy of 2000 yards passing. In the playoff game before the AFC Championship, The Steelers beat Baltimore 40 - 14, both Franco (hip pointer) and Rocky (toe) were injured. Harrison and Frenchy had an injured leg, were our RBs did the best they could. Oakland disrespected the run and held our passing game in check. Oakland won a close game. Now there were years with some struggles, but as fans we had learned to be patient. And our future Steeler Teams came through and put the Steelers at the top again and again. Thank you all who wore the Black an Gold from 1933 to the present. Injuries have really hampers 2022, but it ain't over till it's over (Yogi). Here We Go !
Let's be honest and realize Holmes wrote his ticket out of Pittsburgh by being a malcontent over money. His once-promising career dwindled rapidly after one good year with the Jets. That aside, it's nice that he worked his way back into the good graces of the Steelers organization and fans.
@@spencerleiataua3173 ,. it shouldn't have happened, but David Johnson missed a crucial block that enabled Matthews to make the hit on Mendenhall. Of course, Mendenhall still takes all the heat for fumbling, but it WAS NOT his fault. I read the full details in the post Super Bowl issue of Steelers Digest, courtesy of Bob Labriola, and I share this information whenever I can. There's usually more to what happens on the field than our untrained eyes can see, so it's always important to go beyond that and try to find out as many facts as possible. Stop listening to the talking head idiots in the media who don't respect sports beyond buzz and entertainment value, and therefore don't respect US. Analyze what you see for yourself and come to your own conclusions, then get your amplifying information from reliable sources so you know what's really going on.
Metalrails exactly but He trusted Ben to get the ball to him but Brown doesn’t have any of that I understand Holmes had problems but like you said he wasn’t anything at Jets but Holmes trusted Ben
If AB was more like Holmes #1 He wouldn't be as Great if not better than Holmes. #2 He wouldn't be with the Steelers for so long. LOL. #3 Not everyone's mindset is the same. We all wish people drove on the road like the best driver but reality is hardly anyone does. AB was as Great as he was because of his Explosive Mentality. NFL isn't for the meek and mild.
Yeah I know right I was at the 2010 AFC Championship game and had to watch him playing for the Jets terrible to watch him and Allen Fanaca play for the Jets
He got himself traded. I wish he stayed out of trouble off the field. Steelers really needed him on that last drive vs The Packers rather than relying on a 2nd year WR and 2 rookies. I've always felt they would of had a better chance at a game winning drive there if Holmes was still on the team
Where is troy polamalu my favorite football player from Steelers good see parker and Holmes again look good wandering going back played football with Steelers stay retired?
That's how I've always felt. They would have had a much better chance on that final drive if Holmes was still on the team than relying on Wallace (a 2nd year WR) and 2 rookies. It sucked that Holmes got himself traded. He should just have stayed out of trouble but we see those things happen to a good amount of players. We've seen it with like 5 or 6 WR's now
I completely get where Stallworth is coming from at the 25.40 minute mark. If you Google or go on RUclips and watch Super Bowl 9 steelers versus vikings, it almost looks like the most boring game you'll ever see. They simply do the play then get backup and drop back to the huddle and do it over again throughout the entire game. There's no celebrating of any kind unless a touchdown has been made. You should check it out.
He didn't have a choice.. LOL. The Steelers released him after that Superbowl and Bell is Probably better financially situated than Holmes is no matter what team he went to afterwards.
Holmes is misremembering. The safety was earlier and The Steelers got the ball back after the safety not by the D but after the D gave up the TD to Fitzgerald.
@@VisserBros10 Fitz has been playing almost 20 years and still don't have a ring. Holmes got his his 3rd year and is retired looking at his ring and histoeic sideline catch while fitz has nothing
I like how Stallworth directs the conversation to let everyone speak about their experiences.
Yes. That's who Stallworth is. Or perhaps I should say, that is who Stallworth had become by that time. After all, this was filmed years after he had retired from the NFL and had subsequently co-founded a very successful aerospace engineering firm.

When you’re great you’re great
I know it's gonna sound played out but him as a podcast host would be great
J.S. Is a very accomplished business man, he definitely knows how to conduct a round table conversation for maximum effect!
Thank you for this video. RIP Fronco, we will always love you!

Not surprised!! Chul Noll's guys exude utmost class!!
WOW LOVE HEARRING THIS ...
GO STEELERS...
These guys are great;!!!
You can tell after all these years even after being only on the Steelers like 5 years, Santonio is glowing when he talks about Ben.
Willie Parker was beast;!!!
Oh my gosh! This is awesome! Thanks for the memories.
Kudos to all who thought of this segment.
Those men make me proud to be part of Steeler Nation! I would hope all the rookies watch and learn what it takes to wear the black and gold with pride. Thank you for doing this and letting us see what it was like through the eyes of the men who made it happen.
It's fun watching Parker stare at Harris. Franco's such a legend, I wonder if Willie is a bit starstruck.
Probably saying to himself: "Franco is one big dude".
Holmes arguably the greatest catch in Super Bowl history on the tips of his toes fully stretch out, with the game on the line! Willie Parker longest run from scrimmage in super bowl history! Of course Franco and Stallworth their names say it all!
Santonio was beast in that game!!!!!
I miss willie he is so humble. I miss see dude at big mommas house of soul...... When they were in the strip on penn ave
our boys okay football together. dude's really chill
LET'S GO STEELERS NATION ... CARRY ON TRADITION 💪💯👍
I can't wait to see more of these. Look forward to a defensive round table. Greene, Lambert, Blount, Troy, Aaron Smith, James Farrior.
they did one. deebo troy Joe Green & Woodson I think

Super Steelers!!! Legends!! Listening to our Legends apeak! Oozing so much class!!
This was great, hope you do more of these family reunions.
21:15 so belichick got “do your job” from cowher? Cant say im shocked
I really wish the Steelers get back to dominance
I love these videos. I wish Holmes was still with the steelers in SB 45.
No I wish Clay Matthews didn't make Rashad Mendenhall didn't fumble the ball in SB 45
Let's be honest and realize Holmes wrote his ticket out of Pittsburgh by being a malcontent over money. His once-promising career dwindled rapidly after one good year with the Jets. That aside, it's nice that he worked his way back into the good graces of the Steelers organization and fans.

Franco and Rocky Bleir equals power backs. Running backs have to be strong and durable. That's a hard position and respectable
The drive against Arizona was not only the best drive in the history of the Steelers but in the history of the Super Bowl !!
And that’s why I’m a Pittsburgh Steelers fan........
Wait what???? Ben and Tone worked together all summer alone??? Geez, where was the media to talk crap about Ben?
Stallworth and Franco look so good! They look like the can still play!
I wish AB could be like Holmes, Holmes actually trusted Ben

This is cool, we need some more guys to come on like Terry, Mean Joe, Troy, Farrior. Teach these guys how to be real Steelers.
I grew up a big dolphin fan but Franco Harris was one of my favorite running backs rip bigguy
Rest in peace Franco 💛🖤
Where is troy polamalu my favorite football player from Steelers good see parker and Holmes again look good wandering going back played football with Steelers stay retired?
Somebody tell AB to watch this.....
Dented head
ruclips.net/video/Ac-JYp25Bx0/видео.html
He was forced into retirement Steelers did him dirty I loved troy hard to see him go
Destine Souls!!!!
Franco- #1 all time Steeler.
Edmund Nelson 64 NT for us in the 80's I think.Anybody else know if thats whom Stallworth is talking about.Thank you.
Like u guys said, we didn’t have to cheat to win our super bowls
If Santonio Holmes was on the 2010 team, They win Super Bowl XLV
That's how I've always felt. They would have had a much better chance on that final drive if Holmes was still on the team than relying on Wallace (a 2nd year WR) and 2 rookies.

@@jjsteel43 I was disappointed that Heath Miller was ignored in the 2nd half
If Mendenhall doesn't fumble, they win that game as well.

didn't age well🤣🤣

R.I.P Franco! #PS4L
Franco never let's SH finish his stories
These guys are Legends/HOF, but Bell and AB ain't gonna be one cause they only focus on money instead of being an NFL Legend/HOF 😂😂💀💀
Santonio Holmes should have remained a Steeler instead of going to the Jets which is career suicide just like Le'Veon Bell.
Luckily for Bell, he's with one of the best teams in the league (Kansas City Chiefs, the defending SB champions).
He didn't have a choice.. LOL. The Steelers released him after that Superbowl and Bell is Probably better financially situated than Holmes is no matter what team he went to afterwards.
@@JAMESJJEFFERS Both ruined their careers by way of ego and greed.
I wonder what Holmes and Parker are doing these days; hopefully they're doing well. I already know that Stallworth and Harris are.
Parker lives here in NC. our boys play football together
Now on to the next one with "Mean"Joe Greene. ;)
Check it out man. It's here
Holmes is misremembering. The safety was earlier and The Steelers got the ball back after the safety not by the D but after the D gave up the TD to Fitzgerald.
Yes, I noticed that
Santonio is confusing. Why would the coach tell you never to catch the ball on a play you run so much in practice??
Is the comment section just here to talk crap?
Holmes is a PUNK. He splashed a girl in the face with his drink for talking to me
Fitzgerald got robbed of a Superbowl. Holmes NEVER got that 2nd foot down! Fitz HOF Holmes out of the league probably broke. Lol Go Cardinals!
Fuck the cardinals. Piss poor organization.
Fitz 0 rings
Holmes 1 ring
