Terry, Howie and Jimmy get candid about their images as players

Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long and Jimmy Johnson get candid about their images. Hear why Terry gets so hurt when people call him 'the dumb quarterback'.

Howie Long is a former NFL defensive end who played for the Oakland/Los Angeles Raiders from 1981-1993 I remember his first year in the NFL in the 1980's when he was in his 20's when he played for the Raiders and he continued his career with his team he drafted by until 1993 and he is now 60 years old this past January 2020

[@johnbailey2024]

I’m from Cleveland, grew up when the browns and Steelers were a real rivalry.. I’ve always remembered how terry bradshaw used to sling bullets , 20 30 40 yard darts , he was really great, and so easy to like, humble, genuine, and great person, in spite of being a steeler ....he’s from the south, he makes all the right moves, is intelligent, but doesn’t have to flaunt everything he’s done

[@AGTsakumis]

Great discussion. Super useful for other athletes to listen to. And by the way, three great guys; intelligent and capable.

[@tidemark0500]

TB - my favorite QB of all time (I'm in my early 50's) - His story about early days in Pittsburgh, feeling the wrath of fans, trying to please Chuck Noll, his battles with illnesses...He genuinely seems like a guy you'd like to live next door to even if he wasn't in football..

[@rickmaroni965]

Terry, you were the ultimate field general in your day. Maybe you struggled early on, but you caught on and were the envy of all other quarterbacks. Quarterbacks who are "dumb" do not call their own plays. And dumb quarterbacks who call their own plays do not win 4 Super Bowls. End of story.

As a Browns fan, I don't think Bradshaw ever had an image as a dumb qb.... that always seemed to me to be a misperception that dumb people had. He had an image as a winner - and I hated that.

[@warrenash5370]

Terry, am a Browns fan and watched you torch my Browns on many occasion. Hated? Yes! Stupid? No! You are one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. A member of the Hall of Fame and an excellant pre-game show host. The only stupid ones are those who would paint you as stupid!

[@garysmith8448]

Well stated, Warren Ash...

[@SuperVt100]

Never thought of Terry as _dumb_ until his post career, when I heard things that he would say about it. I thought of him as a Steeler. He took over football in the mid-70s. Terry, Lynn Swann, Joe Greene, Stallworth, Franco Harris, Rocky Bleier, Donnie Shell, Greenwood, Mel Blount, Webster, Lambert were all part of a greater team. The Steelers had a 5-year run where they won 4 Super Bowls. His post playing career was denoted by his football commentary on Fox. Terry Bradshaw had an _emotional IQ_ , an EQ, which is off the charts. He made watching football fun. He was always the one guy on Fox Sports you could count on to make it all fun.

Second Dallas vs Pittsburg Super Bowl, two Dallas linebackers steal the ball from Bradshaw and score and I’m thinking Dallas has got this one, but I think the next time he got the ball, he throws a long touchdown pass and brings the Steelers right back.I think he had some problems, but he never let them defeat him. A true champion.
