The 1995 iteration of the Pittsburgh Steelers very nearly cemented themselves in franchise history, almost bringing what would have been the team’s fifth Lombardi Trophy back to Pittsburgh. The Steelers went to Super Bowl XXX that season against the Dallas Cowboys and could have pulled off the win if not for three costly interceptions thrown by Neil O’Donnell. They finished the regular season 11-5, winning the AFC Central and securing the No. 2 seed in the playoffs. One player who had a significant impact on that season was WR Ernie Mills.
Prior to that, Mills had only received 18 total starts in four seasons after being selected in the third round of the 1991 NFL Draft.
