Long after many of his Steelers teammates and fans had left the practice fields of Saint Vincent College, wide receiver Antonio Brown burst into a route and found himself on the receiving end of a lob from quarterback Dennis Dixon. After Brown hauled in the pass, a fan perched on top of a hill overlooking the field shouted to him a very clear and direct message of support.

"You're going to the Pro Bowl!" the fan yelled as Brown pointed back to him in recognition and turned around with a wide grin on his face............

It sounds like (barring injuries) Brown could have a breakout season...and I LOVE his attitude and work ethic.

Man i am so glad we drafted Manny and Brown together. i think the two of them have made each other so much better. And i'll betcha Manny will be going big this year too, trying to catch right back up with Antonio Brown.

Wow... Mike Wallace. Antonio Brown. Emmanuel Sanders.

You can even throw Heath Miller in there and we can't forget about Hines. That is one hell of a receiving core.

That was a great article. As usual, the future continues to look bright for our beloved Steelers based on our young talent.

I'm glad Brown developed. Now Sanders doesn't need to hurry up healing. I don't care if it takes till midseason, I want that foot 100% healthy before he steps on the field, and thanks to Brown we can afford that luxury

By the end of the year the offense will be at its best

Antonio needs to change his last name - before I opened up this thread I thought it was about the Browns. :doh: :chuckle:

And in the secondary, where we have used 4 draft picks in the last 2 years, still waiting for 1 guy to emerge.

OK, Lebeau's system may be difficult, but come on.
