Casey Hampton may be old and slow, but he says it’s not over

[polamalubeast]

When Pittsburgh opened last season by taking a one-sided beatdown in Baltimore, Warren Sapp proclaimed that the Steelers were “old, slow and it’s over.” Casey Hampton is, at age 35, the second-oldest Steeler. And at well over 300 pounds and coming off a torn ACL, he may be the slowest Steeler as well. But he insists that it’s not over.

“They’ve been saying that for how long?” Hampton said, via the Associated Press. “They’ve been saying, ‘You’re getting old,’ and all that for years, and year in and year out we do our thing. So I don’t see it being any different this year.”

If one is old and slow in the NFL .....it's over! :chuckle:

Hampton was done 3 to 4 years ago. Hoke should have been starting during that time.

Perhaps, but it is a moot point now. Just hoping Ta'amu is the real deal for the next 10 years...
