A Steelers icon becomes the latest measuring stick for Jalen Hurts

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts earns an elite mention as he is compared by an NFL analyst to a Steelers icon. 'His legacy is going to be about winning. He is going to be like the Terry Bradshaw of this generation.'@Chris_Broussard on Jalen Hurts: They're the NFL's only two professional sports franchises in Pennsylvania, and once upon a time, they were forced to join forces to ensure the survival of both organizations. In 1943, the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers joined forces as the Phil-Pitt Combine, a.k.a. the 'Steagles.' Both teams saw many of their players enlist during World War II, which compelled both sides to pull resources and field a single combined team. The result was a mediocre 5–4–1 record and a third-place finish in the NFL Eastern Division. Greasy Neale and Walt Kiesling served as co-head coaches. Alexis Thompson, Art Rooney, and Bert Bell shared ownership duties. I'm not sure why, but something about that seems fascinating. We would have paid money to see it, but we will settle for some current parallels. Thank you to one of the hosts of FS1's First Things First for providing us with one relatively recently. Chris Broussard is reminded of a Steelers icon by Jalen Hurts We've heard comparisons involving Jalen Hurts and Tom Brady. We've seen Philly's star quarterback hang out with Michael Jordan on more than one occasion. Recently, Cam Newton threw a few darts at him. That was a little surprising, but we are used to hearing his name tossed around on FS1 daily. Typically, when we mention one of the flagship shows, First Things First, we're complaining about something Nick Wright said. This time, however, some of the banter was flattering. We haven't heard this one before. Chris Broussard compared Hurts to a Steelers icon. The City of Brotherly Love can be tough to win over, but they're an adoring bunch if they fall in love with you. Let's mull over what Broussard just said and make one thing abundantly clear. Broussard didn't say this in his theory. This is strictly the ramblings of someone whose imagination has been awakened by what he said. Let's say Jalen Hurts matches Terry Bradshaw's resume. Think about that for a second. Let's say he leads the Eagles to something in the area of four Super Bowl wins (or, let's just trim it back to three). Philadelphia will build him a statue, and once his playing days are over, he'll be able to run for public office and win. That isn't an exaggeration.

Steelers insider predicts bad news on Terry Bradshaw having his number retired

Terry Bradshaw is one of the greatest Steelers QBs of all time — and to honor the four Super Bowls he won with Pittsburgh, no other player has donned his legendary No. 12 since he left. However, the number isn't officially retired — and insider Gerry Dulac recently stated it may take a while. During Wednesday's Steelers chat on the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Dulac was asked for an update on when Pittsburgh will retire Bradshaw's No. 12 — and the Steelers insider provided some bad news: Advertisement "I don't think it's happening anytime soon." His pessimism is founded in reality, however, as only three Steelers have had their jerseys officially retired: Ernie Stautner, 'Mean' Joe Greene, and the late, great Franco Harris. Stautner joined the Steelers in 1950 — playing in 173 games over his 14 years with Pittsburgh — and his contributions to the Steel City earned him the honor of having his No. 70 jersey retired in 1964. Arguably one of the greatest defensive linemen in NFL history, Greene's 181 games with Pittsburgh over a 13-year span earned his No. 75 the distinction of being the second number retired, in 2014. Harris was the third and most recent Steeler to have his number honored for eternity — as his No. 32 was retired on the 50th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception in 2022. All three of these Steelers legends were honored with having their numbers officially retired — but Bradshaw will likely have to settle for the unofficial recognition for the time being. Advertisement Should any other Steelers legends have their jerseys retired — and if so, who should be next after Bradshaw gets his turn? This article originally appeared on Steelers Wire: Dulac: 'Steelers unlikely to retire Bradshaw's number anytime soon'

Terry Bradshaw showed no mercy—fired his own uncle, proving even family isn't safe when values are at stake

Terry Bradshaw chose values over family—fired his own uncle (Image via: Getty Images) NFL legend Terry Bradshaw is no stranger to pressure. From four Super Bowl rings to national TV fame, he's lived in the spotlight for decades. But his toughest call didn't happen on the football field, it happened in his personal life. And it proved that for Bradshaw, principles always outweigh popularity, even when family's involved. Why Terry Bradshaw chose character over talent, including in family matters On the To The Point – Home Services Podcast, Bradshaw gave fans a rare look into the leadership style that's shaped both his NFL legacy and his post-football ventures, especially Bradshaw Quarter Horses, his thriving horse breeding business. When asked how he handles high performers who resist structure, Bradshaw didn't sugarcoat it: 'If I have to tell you more than twice to do something, you're gone.' He credits former Cowboys coach Jimmy Johnson for his 'results over process' mindset. If you're a superstar and delivering, you get more leeway. But once character fails, no amount of talent can save your seat. That approach led Bradshaw to fire only three people in his entire career—one for stealing, one for toxicity, and one that shook him to the core: his own uncle. 4x Superbowl Champ Terry Bradshaw Talks Champion Caliber Contractors Terry Bradshaw firing his uncle could be the toughest call of his life In perhaps his most jarring admission, Bradshaw revealed that his very first firing wasn't a teammate or employee—it was a close family member. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Dubai villas | search ads Get Deals 'My uncle. I fired my uncle. That was actually my first fire.' The decision highlighted the uncomfortable truth every leader eventually faces: when loyalty and values collide, only one can win. Bradshaw didn't elaborate on the exact reasons, but his takeaway was clear—no exceptions, no free passes. In his eyes, integrity must come first. His wife Tammy Bradshaw now handles most staffing issues, but the family's philosophy remains grounded in one non-negotiable rule: character is king. FAQs: Why did Terry Bradshaw fire his own uncle? Terry Bradshaw didn't reveal specific details, but he emphasized that character and values take precedence over personal relationships in business decisions, even when it comes to family. How many people has Terry Bradshaw fired in his career? Bradshaw revealed he has only fired three people: his uncle, a long-time employee who was stealing, and a toxic coworker who mistreated others. What is Terry Bradshaw's leadership philosophy? Bradshaw believes in results-driven leadership, inspired by coach Jimmy Johnson. However, he draws a hard line at poor character, regardless of talent or tenure. Why Bradshaw's leadership still resonates Terry Bradshaw's story is a masterclass in leadership, integrity, and unshakable standards. In an age where talent often excuses bad behavior, Bradshaw stands firm: 'If they are not a good person, I don't care how much money they're making. I can't handle that.'

Terry Bradshaw regrets early NFL deals after seeing Tom Brady's massive $37 million deal Fox contract

Terry Bradshaw regrets early NFL deals after seeing Tom Brady's massive $37 million deal Fox contract (Image via Getty) NFL legend Terry Bradshaw recently shared honest thoughts about money in football broadcasting. Speaking on the 'To the Point – Home Services Podcast,' the Hall of Famer made a surprising comparison between his past deals and Tom Brady's new contract with Fox. His comments came just months after the record-breaking Super Bowl 2025 broadcast and have sparked discussion among fans and experts alike. Terry Bradshaw compares Tom Brady's Fox salary to his own pay Terry Bradshaw, a four-time Super Bowl champion and longtime face of 'NFL on Fox,' didn't hold back while talking about his job and earnings. On Tuesday, during the podcast episode, he recalled how Fox recently pulled in huge viewership numbers. The Super Bowl drew 126 million viewers, while the five-hour Fox pregame show alone averaged 28 million. Despite the success, Terry Bradshaw joked that if he asked for a raise, Fox would likely say the company was 'running a little tight.' He then pointed out that Fox is now paying former quarterback Tom Brady a reported $37 million a year for his role as a broadcaster. Terry Bradshaw admitted, 'I did some bad deals.' He also reflected on his early NFL days. After being the No. 1 overall pick in the 1970 NFL Draft, he said he only made $25,000 in his rookie year. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Secure your family's future!

While Terry Bradshaw's current Fox salary isn't public, Tom Brady's deal is nearly double that of Troy Aikman at ESPN, who makes $18 million a year, and Cris Collinsworth at NBC, who earns $12.5 million annually. Some critics say Tom Brady's on-air performance last season didn't match his paycheck, but networks seem willing to invest big in star names.
