Pittsburgh Steelers LEGENDARY 2008 Defensive Highlights

[@TheSteelers4190]

This unit only gave up 3.9 yards per play. The 2nd fewest total that year was 4.4. This defense was so dominant that teams averaged a half yard less per play than anyone else! Unreal!

[@RemingtonSteel]

Only 1 team got over 300yds on offense against them

[@chrismarciatetisindles5876]

This defense has to be mentioned among the best in history

[@bigrivermedia762]

Absolutely legendary defense. I’m hoping we can get even close to this level again soon.

[@mangomasher7254]

[@bigrivermedia762]

This was the Steel Curtain Pt2. This defense for 2019 and beyond is shaping up to be the Steel Curtain Pt3. Great video!

[@ItzYinzburgh]

Thank you so much Papa Beanos!

[@wraith1117]

I have to agree. They really seem to be shaping up to that.

[@waltblackadar4690]

That 2008 AFC Championship game was the hardest-hitting game I remember (and I saw the Curtain in the 70s). I thought Ryan Clark had literally killed Willis McGahee in that late 4th quarter hit. It was an absolute slugfest and every play featured some sort of extremely hard contact.

[@Snickerszn]

That hit was so loud in the stadium it sounded like bones cracking

[@rocksnmortarlb8907]

One of the greatest playoff games of all time.

[@bertburns9611]

Thank you Dick Lebeau!! Greatest defensive coach and master mind that has ever been or ever will be.

Aaron Smith was the man. All time underrated team. We'll always appreciate him though.

[@_Lonelychild]

That 2008 defense was something special man miss the old days BLACK & YELLOW 4 life 🖤💛

[@notforplay84]

Can't deny that greatness! TPs finger tip interception is probably the greatest pick of all time (I challenge those to find one better!). I was at a Patriots strong hold watching that Superbowl, of course everyone cheering for the Cards. That final drive.... Just no words, love you Steelers!

[@wraith1117]

Hey man. As one who is also in production, I've noticed the time and effort you've put into these vids. Volume, and color balance, and a few others. Editing is a lot of work. Not many take the time to do that. thanks for these.

[@ItzYinzburgh]

Thank you so much! You noticing that has honestly made it all the extra steps worth it. I appreciate so much 🙏🏼

[@OldGuitarMan]

This is beautiful. Made me cry - who we were then, not “we” as in the team, but personally, our families, children, the shared experience with the 2008 team, that collection of gods amongst men. And also all we’ve lost between then and now, both the team and our families, our children gone, our lives more empty, the team no longer anything special. So we cry for what was good, contrasting it to what we’ve lost and what we have now.

[@Dramacydal18]

Wow. That comment hits different. I feel like times were better then. But very beautifully put.

Man this brings back so many great memories of that season, but to beat the Ravens in the Afc championship gm was very special..No Doubt!!

[@travismiller5581]

What made this year special was the fact that we not only won the SB, but that we swept the ratbirds in the regular season and then beating them in the AFC Championship just made it all tbe more sweeter!

[@timoteoferguson6443]

Aaron Smith....Best 3-4 DE you will ever see. His technique was incredible. Occupied multiple blockers for the LBs to seek and destroy. Played the run like no other. Got sacks. Stud.

As a lifelong bleeder of the Black and Gold, I like how you decided to use a movie-line describing psychopaths as your opener for our defense lol. Twas a nice touch 👌🏼

As a complete defense. Maybe the 2000 Ravens, 86 bears, and the 70s Steelers and Vikings even come close to how dynamic thua group was

The Good Lord willing we should be so incredibly fortunate, or perhaps just The Football God's themselves give us another team on both sides of the ball even somewhat comparable to this one. Hate to beat a dead horse but in my opinion there's no reason or excuse why we don't have at least one or two more rings with this incredibly talented team other than coaching. Peace and Gooooo Steelers!❤️❤️❤️

[@RemingtonSteel]

I used to enjoy when Pittsburgh was on D. Like saying to myself, "watch this." It was nasty, nasty stuff and us black and gild fans loved it.

[@Alexr26]

Smith, Keisel, Harrison, Woodley, Farrior, Foote, Timmons, Desea Townsend, Ike Taylor, Polamalu, playmakers everywhere

[@another1bitesdusty]

Just think about all the great players on that defense: Aaron Smith, Brett Keisel, Casey Hampton, James Harrison, LaMarr Woodley, Larry Foote, James Farrior, Ike Taylor, Lawrence Timmons, Ryan Clark, Troy Polamalu, Deshea Townsend. What an insane amount of talent for one team to have on defense. Our defense in 2023 is good, but it doesn't even come close to the '08 squad.
