The Zone Is A Place That You

Over A 10-season Stretch From 1967 To 1976, Eight Super Bowl Champions Either Were The Raiders Or Had To Beat The Raiders In The Playoffs. The Jets, The Kansas City Chiefs, The Baltimore Colts, Miami, The Steelers Each Of The First Two Times... We All Had To Deal With The Raiders.

As I And The Rest Of My Pittsburgh Steelers Teammates Prepared That Week In Late December 1974, We Knew One Thing: The Road To The Super Bowl In The Afc Went Through Oakland. To Achieve Your Dreams As A Team, You Had To Slay The Oakland Raiders. They Were The Barometer Of What It Took To Be A Championship Team.

I Do Play Football No-holds-barred. Any Edge I Can Get, I'll Take. I'd Grab A Face Mask Only In A Fit Of Anger. Uncontrolled Anger Is Damn Near Insane.

Winning The Super Bowl Was Obviously A Great One, But The Joy I Felt Of Going To The Super Bowl, It Was What I Felt About The Pittsburgh Steelers And Where We Came From, The History Of Us To That Point.

When You Think Of Me As A Football Player, I Would Like For People To Think That I Put It On The Line Every Time. Good Or Bad, Win Or Lose, I Put It On The Line.
