I think the Steelers should dress Aaron Smith, and send him and Pouncey (with crutches and cast) out onto the field to take the coin toss. Imagine the surge of adrenaline that would create in the rest of the team.

It gives me chills just thinking about it. Anyone know Ed Bouchette? Send this idea on to him, maybe it gets back to Tomlin or someone on the inside...

I like the idea..just don't know if I ever saw an inactive player in during the coin toss before.

Eh I dont see how it would send a surge on adrenaline, you should already be up for the superbowl, and to me this would be a downer.

I just think the rest of the team, seeing their comrades walk across the field one last time for the season, would be quite motivating. Heck, they've been saying how much of an inspiration Aaron has been in the locker room, and how half of the guys are playing for him. I just think it would be a great honor.

It could be or it could be kind of like damn they cant play. Either way it would just mean more and be appropriate if say they were retiring and if it indeed was their last walk across the field. Either way it wont happen, but i suppose its a thought.

I don't think it would be a downer for this team, not the way they seem to think. They really are of the one for all and all for one mentality.
I think it also goes along with the respect thing that was discussed in another thread and Smith and Pouncy earned that respect and deserve to
be there for the coin toss if it's something thats possible.

They should have Terry Bradshaw and Bart Starr out there for the coin toss.

Can't dress Aaron if he can't play. As much as I'd like to, there is a game to be played and we need all hands on deck.
