    Aikman, Irvin, and Emmitt

    We 1 up that when you compare Harper vs Bryant! Harper was the decoy to keep the Safeties honest and Aikman would throw a few deep passes to Harper to just let them know that hey we can chuck it deep as well. Bryant is head and shoulders above Harper!

    I would actually compare them to Montana, Craig, Rice because Bell is more like Roger Craig than Emmitt! Bryant still makes the difference.

      Agree with the Craig comparison.

      What about greatest show on turf? Ben>Warner; Bell=Faulk; Brown & Bryant>Holt & Bruce

        I'll accept the Greatest Show on Turf comparison. However, I wouldn't say Brown & Bryant > Holt & Bruce. Of the four, I'd choose Brown first, but both Holt and Bruce are light years ahead of Bryant right now. Holt and Bruce are both borderline Hall of Famers (both in the top 15 all time in receiving yards...Ike Bruce is #4 all time!). Meanwhile, Martavis has yet to reach even 800 yards in a season...I like his potential, but he simply can't hold Bruce & Holt's jocks at this point. And I'd hold back before calling Bell equal to Faulk at this point as well (although he has that type of ability when healthy).
        Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

        Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

        We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

        We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

          I personally think you nailed it with that comparison Oviedo.
