SCB Steelers Quick Hitters: The “Call to the Hall” Edition

Good Friday to you Steelers’ Fans!

I’m incredibly excited to not start with news today about our disgruntled wide receiver. Instead I get to discuss former Steelers’ All-Pro Offensive Guard Alan Faneca who was named a finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Faneca has been here before but has fallen short. This time I believe his call to the hall will come. Nine times Faneca was a Pro Bowl selection and six times Faneca was an All-Pro. Of the finalists named, I can see Tony Gonzalez and Ed Reed as clear selections. In terms of offensive linemen, Faneca is joined by Steve Hutchinson (7 Pro Bowls and 5 All-Pro selections), Kevin Mawae (6 Pro Bowls and 2 All-Pro selections) and Tony Boselli (5 Pro Bowls and 3 All-Pro selections).
