Back when MNF was must see television!

I remeber this game i was watching it with my grandfather its the game i fell in love with Jerome power football dominance

Always nice to see the Bus

2 dudes who were the biggest , baddest, and most nimble guys for their size.

Jerome Bettis is the reason I’m a Steeler fan. I was Rams fan as a kid. When they traded him to Pittsburgh I was so mad I just started watching Pittsburgh. I was 14 years old at the time. Been a die hard Steelers fan ever since. There will never be another Bettis!! Kirkland was one of my favorite players when I started watching the Steelers. If Ben would have came along about 7 years earlier, who knows what could have been!!

These Was The Days ! When Football Was Still Football At It’s Best “The 90’s”

Brings back some very fond childhood memories. Thank you.

Watching these videos brings back alot of memories from 3 rivers stadium.

1996 was the only season that Bettis wore the block numbers. Bring back the blocks!

1996 was The last season where the Steelers wore their classic block numbers. In 1997 they shifted to the Fortuna font numbers we know today. 2019 was the first time they wore these uniforms again.

Miss Jerome running that ball 😔

The Bus is so _young_ there. Nice work on the video. :)

Kirkland was crazy athletic. Almost 300 lbs and moving like a safety. 🤯

I was at this game. Seeing Levon Kirklands interception was an incredible moment.

I’m surprised that there wasn’t a highlight showing Jerome running over Bills’ linebacker, Bryce Paup. My brother, whom is a Bills fan, called me immediately following Jerome running over Paup and asked me, “Holy cow! Where the heck did they get that guy?!” I told him the Steelers acquired Jerome from the Rams and it looks like a perfect match for the Steelers and Jerome.

Both those big men are fun to watch!

Kirkland was always one of my favorite linebackers. Complete player against the run or pass. And for a guy his size to be as good as he was in all phases of the game was crazy. I wish he and Lloyd could have won rings with the Steelers.

Kirkland Lloyd and Kevin Greene was an awesome lb crew

Every morning I start my day with Itz Yinzburgh to get goin!

Kirkland, at 270 in 1996 was a perfect size/weight that season. He had mobility. His weight went up to nearly 300 lbs during his final 4 seasons in Pittsburgh.

This vid was just superb!

Love how calmly Kirkland's 2nd int is announced

The Bus before he got his nickname and Levon Kirkland part of the Blitzburgh Defense! Awesome 👌

Bettis was deceptively fast for such a big man.

I remember this game well, great stuff. Can you find the game where Erric Peagram got off on the Rams with a kick off return too.

Kirkland and Bettis offense and defense over-drive. Love ur videos Itz

Love these old Bettis clips when he was in his prime. I'm still trying to find the hit he had on a secondary player attempting to hit him high where he almost flips the guy feet went higher than his head. I want to say it was against the Browns but unsure. Favorite Bettis play ever truly a brutal RB back then. Kirkland has to be the largest ILB to play at his caliber of play that's ever played

My 1st steeler game

I think the same person is going to all the 'Itz Yinzburgh' videos and disliking them. Must be a Cleveland fan.

what the hell! two hundred and seventy pounds in coverage downfield! levon kirkland...wow!

I remember this game. Textbook Cowher football.

Jerome Bettis was my first Steeler Jersey

Old school Starter lid on 36 at the end.

2:17 Incredible hustle and speed...Kirkland was actually very fast for a big man

“HE SHALL BE LEVON”!!!!!

Jerome Bettis had a Great Game.

99💪

Beautiful memories, thanks!!

I remember the chiefs Steelers Monday night game from this year. Tomczak balls out that game.

Love your superior compilations. The best. Just like the Steelers

that interception. good lord.

How about the whole game . . be great to watch . . TY for you posts!!!!

Even watching footage now, STILL cannot believe had the Size/Athleticism....@ 270#. NOBODY nowadays has that kinda athletic prowess @ 235-255! LOVE that "Over-The-Shoulder" Willie Mays-deal covering Johnson. He should be considered for HOF. And what more can be said of #36 that hasn't been re-hashed/re-iterated Over & Over....WIDE-LOAD....COMIN' THRU YAWL!

Please let there be football this year, I can't take it!!🥴

Kirkland, the speed of a safety, the size of a nose tackle and the power of a tank! Dude was AMAZING !!!

This game showed why the Steelers made Levon the highest paid MLB at that time. Sadly, once Levon got that new contract extension he coasted. He would consistently show up to training camp thirty lbs. overweight and it infuriated Bill Cowher. It got to the point that during the offseason Cowher sent the team’s conditioning coach down to Kirkland’s South Carolina home to get him in shape. Levon did not receive a second contract extension from the Steelers because his expanding girth prevented him from making the kinds of plays that he did in this video. Levon literally ate himself off of the Steelers’ roster.

Need some video on my man, Jack Lambert.

Damn why don't we have more Super Bowl Wins? Always so close I guess.

2:16 Levon Kirkland (99) intercepts a pass

Yo uno de mis hijos lo iba a nombrar "Levon" pero su madre no me dejó😢😢😢

The Bills + Three Rivers + MNF = Not a good combo for Buffalo

2:42 How does a linebacker his size leap for the ball that high?

Jim Kelly comes home to Pittsburgh and gets his butt kicked....

I see the Steelers only blew out the bills 24-6 in this one🤣 It was usually a lot worse!

That time when a Bus put a Bills dynasty to bed.

Great game for Kirkland. The bus - not so much, take away the one run he busted and it's not so impressive anymore. Don't get me wrong he was a great back, but this belongs as a Kirkland highlight reel. 19 for 83 is a lot less impressive than 20 for 133, and one tells the story a lot better than the other.
