The Pittsburgh Steelers had one of the top offenses in the league during the mid-2010s, during which at certain points they sent around half or more of their starters to the Pro Bowl. There was one year in which Ben Roethlisberger, Le’Veon Bell, Antonio Brown, David DeCastro, Maurkice Pouncey, and Alejandro Villanueva were all invited to the game in 2017.
Those first three formed the ‘Killer Bs’, as they were known, representing among the best players at their respective positions—quarterback, running back, and wide receiver—in the game. Yet that would be the beginning of the end. Bell would sit out the 2018 season, and Brown would force his way off the team after it.
