Pitt Duo Among New England's Super Bowl Champions, LINK!

Super Bowl Rings for Pitt Recruits & Players, Lewis & Sheard.
Excerpts:
Lewis, who starred at Pitt as a running back from 2009-10, was on the field as the returner for the game's opening kickoff and finished with 49 all-purpose yards on eight total touches via six rush attempts, one reception and one kick return. Lewis scored three touchdowns in New England's run to the franchise's fifth title while serving as the team's kick-return specialist and a situational running back. As a Panther, Lewis amassed 2,860 rushing yards, 405 receiving yards and 31 touchdowns in two years.

Sheard, a four-year standout defensive end for the Panthers from 2007-10, recorded a sack assist and aided a Patriots pass rush that sacked Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan five times and helped swing the momentum in New England's favor in the second half. The sixth-year NFL veteran recorded 33 tackles and 5.5 sacks this season for the Patriots. During his four-year collegiate career at Pitt, Sheard tallied 35.5 tackles for loss and 19.5 sacks...........

Now the former Panthers are champions of Super Bowl LI, joining other former Pitt greats such as Mike Ditka, Tony Dorsett, Russ Grimm, Rickey Jackson, Mark May, Darrelle Revis and a host of others as victors of the NFL's championship game. Revis' title with New England at the end of the 2014 season was the last time Pitt had a former player on the winning side in the Super Bowl.

They say Belichick knows more about the other Teams Rosters than many of the other Team's Head Coaches. Hogan the Tight End was on Bills and beat New England, and Belichick signs him for $7 Million when no one wanted to give that money. Hogan beat the Steelers by Half-Time!

He signed Revis for one season to win that Super Bowl in 2014, then let him go! The Roster changes every year and adapts to what he needs, and he just plain out coaches the other coach.

BAMA's Saban was Belichick Team early and learned much from him. If I am an Owner, I would grab at lest one coach that worked under Belichick and bring that knowledge to any Team.

Fitz nailed his Path to Canton, Ohio this year for sure. On the First Ballot in about 5 Years. Revis has enough to get in too but maybe not on the first Ballot. Ty Law may get in next year? Law & Revis may put 15001 Zip code on Special Status on NFL Pro Hall of Fame, 15001.....Ditka, Dorsett, Hall, and Revis.......ALIQUIPPA, PITT, PITT, MICHIGAN, & PITT!

Donald so far so Great in his 3rd Year!
