    No Lambert, No Blount, No Webster. Laughable list.

    All 3 had a major impact on the decade, which was his criteria.

    I tried to rank each player according to his impact on this particular decade -- as opposed to the impact he made over the course of his entire career.
    Again, who the hell is Elliot Harrison?

    Unfortunately, the Steelers owned the decade. Even Canton can`t put in all the deserving Steelers.

    meh, he's 11th. that seems a little high honestly. blount and lambert were some odd omission. List could use more Raiders probably.

    Yeah, Biletnikoff, Branch, Upshaw, Hendricks, etc . They had some great players. I hated them but they were the Steelers' true rival.

    Then they have Earl Campbell on there even though he played 2 years. Yeah he was amazing those two years but there are too many great players from that decade who played for all or almost all of the decade to include someone who played in 2 years of the decade

    How could the guy put Art Shell on there without Gene Upshaw? They were a package deal.

    And I also have no problem with Earl Campbell being listed there. He singlehandedly destroyed our defense in that Monday night game in '78...as a ROOKIE, no less - in Three Rivers, to boot. He was an absolute monster.
