1. QB Mark Malone caught a 91 yarder from Bradshaw in a losing effort at Seattle in 1981.

2. Surprisingly, Harris never won a rushing title.

3. Tony Dungy, now head coach of the Buccaneers, was forced into action in '77 when both Bradshaw and Kruczek went down with injuries.

4. Rocky Bleier, Mel Blount, Terry Bradshaw, Larry Brown, Sam Davis, Steve Furness, Joe Greene, L.C. Greenwood, Randy Grossman, Jack Ham, Franco Harris, John Kolb, Jack Lambert, Gerry Mullins, Donnie Shell, John Stallworth, Lynn Swann, J.T. Thomas, Loren Toews, Mike Wagner, Mike Webster, and Dwight White.

5. "Mean Joe" Greene made the Pro Bowl 10 times.

6. None. Who needed to with Franco and that defense?

7. Mel Blount after Noll said he was part of the NFL's criminal element in the '77 George Atkinson slander suit.

8. Rocky Blier, 1330 yards (1036 rushing, 294 receiving).

9. The '76 team that started 1-4, then won 11 straight in unbelievable fashion (shutting out 5 of their last 8 opponents and allowing just 28 points in the final 9 regular season games). The team eventually lost to Oakland in the Championship game after losing both Rocky and Franco to injuries in the destruction of Baltimore the previous week. Too bad...could've easily been a three-peat.

10. The Chicago Bears.
