You can’t tell the story of the NFL without Pittsburgh, and I’m not just talking about the Steelers. Quarterbacks are the face of the league, everyone knows that.
But before the likes of Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes carried the shield, it was Joe Namath, Dan Marino, and Joe Montana who did the honors. Any guesses where these and a handful of other Hall of Fame quarterbacks came from? That’s right, the Steel City.
Earlier today on the Pat McAfee Show, Montana, a four-time Super Bowl champion, was asked why the city seemed to churn out so much talent at quarterback back in the day.
