I just saw a replay of this on the NFL network the other night, and Terry Bradshaw was all that and a bag of chips. Surely one of
the greatest of all time.
First Steelers possession....Rocky Bleier and Franco Harris could do nothing. Bradshaw gets one opportunity to throw the ball
on consecutive third downs and throws bullets to Grossman and another receiver for first downs. Balls are perfectly thrown. Then he
chucks the long ball to the end zone and finds Stallworth for a TD on that same opening series. Momentum Pittsburgh right off the bat
due to Terry's great decision making. The Dallas D was all over them too. Bradshaw didn't have much time to throw. The running game
was stopped. He went on to throw for 4 TD's against a very good Dallas defense and was the game MVP.
Yes, he fumbled twice and threw one pick, so let the naysayers come in and say what they want. But after watching that game, only
one person stood out as a great player, and it was Terry. So much depends on the QB on the NFL like no other sport, except maybe
the pitcher in baseball. Terry was a winner, and one of the best winners ever.
