His critical misses in a preseason game versus Minnesota were evidence of that.

(Yes, I used to be a kicker.)

After the Steelers almost blew that playoff game on the way SB XL he made sure they won by not just missing the kick but barely getting it over the endzone. Thank you Mike.

I can still see that kick against Pitt fluttering out of my TV screen…

In other news, they’ve signed a former figure skater to develop their ice hockey program.
