James Harrison

[NorthCoast]

Led all LBs with 10 tackles, 1 FF, 1 TFL, and 2 QB hits. Really unblockable half the game. This was a JH we were used to seeing about 5 yrs ago. Just an outstanding showing for any LB, let alone a 38 yr old one. Gotta love his game right now.

yep.. he's a freak. Wouldn't surprise me if he's back next year... and playing again at a high level.

[NorthCoast]

Check that... my apologies to Timmons who led all LBs with 14 tackles.... still the aged vets were the key in this win!

[Ernie]

Timmons is playing the best football that I can remember... in his career.

I think his strip sack changed the game. Phins had some momentum on that drive and got the ball to start the second half.

Love the maturation of the young guys on D, but so glad Steelers held on to greybeards Harrison and Timmons. Where would they be without them this season? Not in the playoffs, I think.

Huge play. Hope Deebo has plenty left in the tank for the SB run.

[Ernie]

agreed.. even saw McCullers getting some quality reps in there.

And Harrison came out in the 4th quarter which makes his stats that much more impressive......

Someone joked about it earlier, but it's a sad statement on the league that Harrison probably just earned himself another 'random' drug test tomorrow.

Maybe.. and I'm sure it aggravates the heck out of him...but honestly I'd look at it as a compliment. I'd bet no one works harder than JH. He does everything textbook. I was watching his interview on the NFL network this morning. He said he spends about 300-350K a year on all of his treatments, doctors, chiropractors etc. You have to admire a guy like that.. who's willing to go through that kind of grind year in and year out. I hope his desire continues to rub off on these young guys.

Like the woman everyone says, "must have had work done" scenario.
Kinda flattering if she hasn't

Harrison may have just tied Lambert as my favorite Steeler of all time....

He's been mine for a lot of years. Liked him even that much more.. when he proved all the Nay sayers wrong when he came back from cincy

I enjoyed this story that tells how James' father is an inspiration to him:
