    Don't watch NFLN except for Steeler documentaries because they are usually good.

    Can't wait for this one.

    Another great documentary by NFL Films.

    Never knew they both wore #22 in college.

    I watched them play and they were amazing. We got Stallworth because we hid the tape on him before the draft and nobody else got to see it. Swann retired early because other teams simply started head hunting him.

    The game has changed since the 1970s. Although AB might not be as acrobatic as Swann, he and Juju are every bit as good as Swann and Stallworth. They all have excellent ball skills and sticky hands. Stallworth ran routes well and Swann was often the beneficiary of Brad's moon balls.
    All Defense!

    AB yes, no doubt there.

    However, I'd wait a bit more to equate Ju-Ju with Swann and Stallworth.

    Remember, Swann and Stallworth played at a time when it wasn't flag football rules. Look at the vicious headhunting they did on Swann and he got right back up. Swann had to be carried off the field by Mean Joe in the AFCC game yet Swann came back in the Super Bowl X and dominated.

    Stallworth never got the acclaim but his performances in XIII and especially XIV was legendary. Should have easily been MVP in XIV. He went on to even better stats after Swann retired and play great with some crap QBs.

    Swann and Stallworth both were successful AFTER football and are living examples of Chuck Noll's legacy of finding your life's work.
