Bubby Brister threw 4 touchdowns on the team he would eventually play for... In one of the best Non-Roethlisberger QB performances in Steelers’ history, Bubby looked unstoppable on this beautiful day in 1990.

I remember hearing the crowd, 'Looooooooouuuu'.
@Baba Ganush I know there are so many former great steeler players that are never mentioned or forgotten. To name a few off the top of my head Ernie Mills, Andre Hastings, Charles Johnson, Eric Green, John Jackson, Justin Strzelczyk, Ray Seals,Joel Steed, DJ Johnson, Thomas Everrett, Darren Perry, David Little, Jerrol Williams.
My friend Bubby. Met him in 2015 or so. First time ever, always a fan of his. It was a great day. We even through the football together!!!
Louis Lipps is the most under rated WR in Steelers' history.
I got a Bubby Brister Jersey for Christmas in 6th grade. It doesn't even have his name on the back! I still have it, w/ my Lips jersey.
Merrill Hoge was a beast. I know him more as a commentator never realized he was that good.
Ever see Chuck Noll so animated in a positive way ? Unreal. Totally dominant win on the road.
The Joe Walton hire and offensive scheme was arguably Chuck Noll's worst decision as the Steeler's head coach.
I don't remember this game my favorite bubby game when he beat Houston in 1988 37-34 then beating in 89 for WILDCARD game
Graduated in 90 God I remember those days!
Me too!
Bubby Brister used to eat a ton at the TGIF's in the North Hills after games when he played here. My sister said he was the biggest horse's ass in the world. Rod Woodson on the other hand was off the charts nice.
I didn't even know tgifs existed back then
Did Bubby Brister and Mark Malone get along with each other?
Wow that surprises me I always thought he had a good Ole boy Louisiana personality
During training camp at Latrobe I used to deliver food to the Steelers dorms from a local pizza shop. Bubby and merrill used to room together. Bubby ordered everyday. He was always on the phone and merrill always paid. It was a jekel and Hyde. He never spoke a word, merrill always tipped extra. Hodge was a cool.
Never seen Brister throw those timing patterns as well as he did here. What a gun arm he had too. Looked like a complete QB in this performance. Eric Green unstoppable. Stone running out of bounds just about summed him up - blazing speed but not much football savvy.
Both Coach Noll and Coach Reeves had a lot of respect for eachother.
I still remember the headline ‘Denver D can’t hide Rookie’
And 7 years later, Bubby wins the 1st of b2b Super Bowls backing up Elway 97/98
I'm a Broncos fan and Denver would not have won the super bowl without Brister filling in for the injured Elway for a few games
It's easy to forget sometimes the rocket Bubby had for an arm. He was tough as nails too. Still can't believe Stone stepped out of bounds! I still say to this day that Eric Green was the best TE I ever saw in Pittsburgh. Yes, the best version of Green was better than Heath Miller.
That’s a hot take in Pittsburgh, but I respect it!
I grew up watching the steelers since the mid 70's and I still believe Heath was the best all around tight end we ever had! I hope Pat Freiermuth can fill the shoes of these legends.
I still can't believe he caught the pass🤷♂️
Heath had a much better QB. You are out of your mind if you think he was a better blocker than Green.
I agree in my opinion Eric Green was better than Heath Miller. Green could do it all good receiver, good blocker.
Bubby threw everything on a rope!
Bubby was tough and had come from behind in him. The offense was coming around the year before with Coach Tom Moore but Moore left and Noll hired Joe Walton, former Jets HC. Joe had his system, which means that he did not adapt to what the players did well but the players had to fit his system. This year, when things worked right for 9 wins, like above, they looked great. Those 7 loses, though, things did not work right and there were inadequate in game adjustments, so they looked real bad.
This 1990 victory over the Broncos (34-17) in Denver was only Pittsburgh's 2nd regular season victory in the the Mile High City. Their first came in week 16 of 1978, a 21-17 win. The team's 3rd regular season victory came in 2009, a 28-10 victory.
Pittsburgh is 3-8-1 in Denver in regular season....2-4 in the playoffs
At Denver is definitely a house of horrors for the Steelers, then and at Oakland and at New England.
He did so good against John Elway Denver end up signing him to be his back up And win a Superbowl!
I was a little kid but I remember football back then these are the good ol days of football. Just better times back then
I’m only at the 4 min mark and I remember stone stepped outta bounds for some reason after like a 90 yard catch....
aaaaaaaand of course you covered it. Making my comment moot. Although I’m not sure if they scored a td on that drive. Coulda been 5 tds if not
It was a shame things didn’t work out the way it appeared it was heading after the run in 1989. Young team maturing and the playoffs seemed inevitable. The Joe Walton hire was a bad fit and stunted the offense’s momentum. The defense had so many young bucks. Another blow was the first-round picks blown on Aaron Jones, Worley and Ricketts in the previous seasons. Imagine if those guys had panned out or those picks were used on better players.
The 89 team had the worst offense in the league despite making it to the divisional round and one Elway comeback drive from the AFC championship
Bayou Bubby!!!
Your content is actually so good. Like how does nobody sub to you.
Steeler D was pretty tough and the running game was solid.Lipps was a great WR.
They tuened the ball over q lot qnd were penalized a ton, also Lake and Woodson were young
That NBC football theme song was for me total 80s for me.
If only Bubby was this good on super tecmo bowl for the nes
7 years later Brister wins a super bowl as Elways backup
Two lol. 1997 and 98. The greatest gravy train job of all time.
@@Biggdoom344 I see what you are saying but Brister deserves credit for starting 5 games while Elway was injured and if not for him playing well they don't win the super bowl
Dwight Stone made the best catch of his career in this game.
I want that sweater and hat Noll has on!!
I actually had the same thought! They sell the hat in the NFL shop still!
Proof that a blind squirrel does find a nut sometimes.
People tend to forget Brister filled in for an injured Elway for a few games helping them win a super bowl, thanks the Broncos could not done it without him
That’s my uncle
That was such a weird season - did not score an offensive TD until October that year but then they had game like this (and the one against the Rams, Browns, Chargers, etc) where they just annihilated opponents.
Steelers had a tough time, hitting on all cylinders with Joe Walton's offense that year. This game showed what that offense was capable of, when everything was clicking like it was supposed to.
Dwight stone actually did that twice stepping out of bounds on what should have been an easy TD a few years later.
Browns fan here. Rooted for PIT in this game. We hated Elway!
It’s amazing how many shit QB’s we suffered through, never understood why Chuck didn’t get a good one. After this game Bubby was shit as usual
Easy, we never had a high draft pick, but think about this, we pass up Dan Marino in the draft. How horrible is that?
@@justcause2775 people act like not getting Dan Marino would have been a huge travesty, but I don't think Marino would have had the career he did if he played for the Steelers, as far as records and statistics go. Although we probably would have won super bowl 30 if he was qb, the Steelers wouldn't paid him like Miami did
Actually after this game Bubby had two more 4TD pass games on the season. In fact after a slow start over the final 12 games Brister threw 20TD & only 8 interceptions. He was AFC Player of The Month in October and finished 10th in NFL in passing.
Damn this is an excellent real-life version of me playing Tecmo Super Bowl on the NES
Just think... Bubby Brister could make a comeback... IF... he had something cool like a moustache or really long beard.
Hmmm
Bubby "The Beard" Brister.
I'll work on it.
This is the greatest game in Brister's NFL career. I just hated his stint as QB. Can't believe he won two SB's with the Broncos.
This was a great game for Bubby but his greatest ... I don't know. He was unstoppable vs SF on MNF in 1993, plus he he had 3 other games with at least 4TD passes (2 w/ PGH & 1 w/ DEN). His performance with a knee injury vs KC in 89 or the giant upset shoot out win vs HOU in "The House of Pain" were great games too
@@thomasleonard1625 Perfectly summed up
Louis Lipps, the man.
I think George Pickens will be like him. A good wide receiver being held back by their team. Louis Lipps would have been a legend if he was drafted ten years before or after he was.
Elway gets DESTROYED in Denver by Pittsburgh!!
The wind from the lake-effect must not have been bad that day. Haha
Is that Amad Rashad announcing? Who is He announcing with? I forgot His name
Bubby threw that ball like 60 some yards with bruised ribs 😳 Dang! I love seeing Elway fail. I hated his antics when he got drafted and the Colts management 💩 , I'll stop.
Go Steelers 👍
I think it was 63 yards. About the only time he ever impressed me...lol.
The Colts were terrible
He goes there he wastes his career
He made the best decision, no one wants to play for a franchise that probably won less than 20 games in a decade
@@fredleeland2464 back then players didn't have a choice, Barry Sanders for instance after years of futility of management he retired early.
Elway was drafted by the Yankees so he threatened to play baseball which forced the Colts to make a crappy trade. I understand your reasoning but not many athletes especially back then would have tried that.
@@steelerspittsburgh875 players did have a choice and Elway showed it, good job for him to show what players should be able to do
This is an unwritten rule of sorts to sign with the team that drafts you in the first, but when the team is gonna be trash, then sign Eric Dickerson and be "okay" for a couple years until becoming absolute trash again before Harbaugh gets there
Going to the Broncos or wanting to go to a team that is more QB oriented is the best choice
👍
The Broncos wasted Elway 's career until his final 4 seasons when they FINALLY surrounded him with a great defense, great running game and great receivers
Then , Brister becomes the backup for Elway and gets 2 Super Bowl Rings being on the Denver roster.
Oddly enough, he was statistically impressive during his playing time there too.
@@ItzYinzburgh It was definitely odd but he played much more efficiently in Denver than he did in Pittsburgh.
@@ItzYinzburgh with Terrell Davis maybe even you or me would have good games too 😂
@@Octavi0ht not to mention 2 1000 yard receivers and a pretty good defense
Not a strong jersey history of #6 when Bubby is towards the top of the list lol
Did they not score after the 91 yard bomb??
Nope, fumble at the 1 & was knocked through for a touchback lol
Brister was never really allowed to be a gunslinger in Pitt. This was one of those rare instances
1990 Steelers offense in the first 4 games: no tds
In this game, they had 5 tds
Yo you should make a steeler discord server...... that'd be epic 😎
I’m actually working on one! Probably won’t be until July before it sees the light of day

Bubby was good in this game but I was super happy when cowher put in o'donnell. Then he screwed us in superbowl Against cowboys . Oh well love them Steelers .
The 1990 steelers were better than the 89 steelers, who made the playoffs. The 1990 steelers team missed the postseason
He could've been good
The Steelers D was stout in 90.
This 90 team was a major disappointment. Went 9-7 and missed the playoffs mainly due to a 1-3 start thanks to Joe Walton’s offense. The Steelers offense literally did not score a TD the first Four games. A opening day loss at Cleveland to a weak browns team would cost them the playoffs despite the fact the Steelers D only gave up 2 FGs that game.
Scrubby Brister
Lmao who’s John Elway
Bubby was inconsistent and a not-so-nice individual according to a number of accounts. He had talent but lacked discipline, something we see the opposite of with Ben. Brister was a necessity at the time but you could tell he would never become great. Ben showed his greatness from the very start and I think will hold that Lombardi trophy one more time. Yinz are the greatest!
Ben lacked talent? When?
@@fredleeland2464 Ben has discipline, something Brister lacked.
@@RichardRitenour0522 i guess so, i just think getting in a motorcycle accident and being suspended 4 games for sexual assault makes me question his discipline
But on the field i guess his discipline was good
@Baba Ganush he was speeding and not wearing a helmet
Apparently he wasn't the sharpest tool in the drawer I heard he had trouble with the playbook so Denver had to seriously dumb it down for him
Wow what a reach
He literally did lmao
I don't remember this about Brister I remember he was TERRIBlE for the most part....

@@scottstevens2752 because comparing qb's that far apart in era's is nonsense. especially if you look at the manufactured video game football era roethlisberger got to play in where they worked tirelessly to try and make every game 52-45
@@timburr4453 Ah ok, makes sense :)
Bobby Brewster sucked I don't know why the Steelers didn't get a quarterback sooner in the draft never understood that
