THE 10 GREATEST TO WEAR THE BLACK-N-GOLD

Today Mrs. Black-N-Gold cracks the top 3 of the 10 Greatest to Wear the Black-N-Gold, looking at Steelers Hall of Fame QB Terry Bradshaw. Terry was drafted #1 overall in the 1970 NFL draft. He had a somewhat tumultuous relationship with head coach Chuck Noll, as well as Steelers fans. Throughout various points of his 13 year career, 1970-1983, Terry would lose his starting job to Terry Hanratty and then Joe Gilliam. But "Brad" always bounced back, in a big way. The 4-time Super Bowl champion became the first quarterback to win 3 and then 4 Super Bowls. And he did it within a 6-year span ('75, '76, '79, & '80). Terry was a 2 time Super Bowl MVP. He also led the Steelers to 8 AFC Central titles. He was voted to the Pro Bowl 3 times and was named a first-team All-Pro by the AP in 1978. Also in '78, the AP named him NFL MVP. Terry is a member of the NFL 1970's All-Decade team as well as the Steelers All-Time 75th Anniversary Team. He and Pirates Hall of Famer Willie Stargell shared the cover of Sports Illustrated when they were named Sportsmen of the Year for 1979. Terry's career numbers are 2025 completions on 3901 attempts for 27,989 yards and 212 touchdowns for a record of 132-68-1. The Steelers unofficially retired his #12, meaning no one will ever wear that number again. To round this out, Terry was voted to the NFL Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility, 1989. Since retiring Terry has enjoyed a career in both acting and broadcasting. However, he will forever remain in the hearts of black-n-gold fans as the quarterback of the Super '70s Steelers. That is why Terry Bradshaw is #3 on the list of the 10 Greatest to Wear the Black-N-Gold. Let's Go Steelers!!!!!!
