Mine, too! Suuuuuuper Trooooy!Originally Posted by katmandu
The interception by #43 to send the Steelers to Super Bowl 43. I love the irony!!!
Can never find footage of it, but the play in the 2005 AFCCG where he fell backwards and tackled the RB for a loss on 3rd and short was quite possibly the most athletic play I've ever seen - before or since.

Hells yeah! That was another awesome play. Gawd, he was so great. I liked the announcer at the end saying, "And Joe Flacco could do nothing about it."
really to many to list ...........

This. Troy had no business being in on that play. Yet he had the field awareness and balance/agility to keep himself in position. That is when I truly said, "Wow"
All of those a listed above come to mind...but really what Dwins said here.

Here is the Pick 6 where he crushes Carson Palmer at the goal line.

Then there's the Pick-6 where he dives over the goal line c/o Carson Palmer...

The pick-six to send us to the Super Bowl, just because of how important it was.

I love them all, and can only narrow it down to two:
1). The interception against San Diego (you know the one). This could also be known as the greatest interception in pro football history.
2). The interception in the AFCCG in 2008 that sent us to the SB (plus I was there). This was also the first Home AFCCG victory since the Colts in 1995.

Still looking, but found this gem in the process...
My fave SHOULD have been the interception of Peyton Manning to get us to the 2005 AFC Championship game, but the damn ref screwed the pooch on the call.

DEFINITELY THIS!!
That game against the Titans was one of the most individually dominant performances ever.
When he jumped over the line to stop Flacco on sneak late in one of the AFC championship games.
Array title="Steelman has much to be proud of">
Troy had so many plays that are permanently seared into my brain, some seriously incredible stuff that we may never see again.
If I had to pick just one that legitimately made my jaw drop, it was the interception against San Diego. Just one of those things, I remember exactly where I was and what I was even wearing that game.
But man, that play against Carson was just crazy, how he picked it off to how he weaved through traffic and tackles to bulldoze Palmer at the goal line. Never seen a play like it since. And of course his interception of Bert in the AFC championship game to seal the win.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE how Kerry Collins looks around after that flying tackle like, "what the F just happened!?"
By the way, that interception in your avvy was every bit as impressive as Odell Beckham's catch that everyone's going gaga over.

Thank you ~ that's my personal favoriteHiiii-YAH! Karate chop on Floppo's arm
Buh-BYE! A thing of beauty
Intercepting average Joe in the title game

To many to single it down to one.
Once in a lifetime player.

I have always liked the play when Polamalu came flying from the secondary to hit Johnson(Titans) for a loss.
Hater = Realist
What do you think Chris Johnson is thinking there watching the whole thing...
Array title="BigNastyDefense is a name known to all">
So many are engraved in my memory....
The interception return for a TD to seal our trip to SB 43
Him running through his college roommate Carson Palmer for a TD return on an INT
Him diving over Palmer for a TD return on an INT
Troy causing a critical fumble on a tomahawk chop of Flacco's arm, where I thought he broke Flacco's arm on that play
The fingertip pick against the Chargers
The one handed INT in the home opener against the Titans
His three sack game against the Texans
Tackling Chris Johnson in the backfield when I am pretty sure he was 20 yards deep at the snap of the ball
All those times he dove over the offensive line to stop a QB/RB on short yardage plays...and succeeded!
Polamalu was a once-in-a-lifetime player that I am so glad we as Steelers fans got to enjoy watching for most of the 12 years he played. IMO, he's the greatest safety to ever play the game. He should be a first ballot HoFer, and anyone that doesn't think so is a jagoff!

All the good ones were mentioned, so I'll mention this underrated one.
The 2005 AFC Championship vs Denver were Troy was blocked, but managed to keep his balance to make the tackle anyway. It was for a minimal gain, but it deserves special mention because it was so uncanny. No normal football player could ever make a play like that, then again, Troy wasn't normal.
