Gotta love Heath

Mark Bruner was a very good tight end. Heath Miller was even better.

I don't think Bruener was that good at all. He was very limited as a receiver; that's why all the team would brag about was how good a blocker he was. HM can blocks just as well but can catch too.
 
Mark Bruener was garbage, and useless in the passing game. He was a small OT wearing the wrong number.

This I can not agree with you on. While Bruener was not all world, he was in no way garbage.
 
Wing and I have had some disagreements where we didn't see eye to eye. This ain't one of 'em. Bruener was a good TE for what he was asked to do; mostly block and be an occasional possession receiver. Heath is a better all-around TE because of his receiving ability. Their roles on their respective versions of the Steelers were different and one need not denigrate Bruener for doing what he was asked/told to do in an era when TEs weren't asked to be focal points of their offense. Bruener was a good blocking TE. Heath is an even better all-around TE.

I have enjoyed those disagreements as well as the agreements.
 
Heath is a throwback...a do-all TE in an era of specialists and H-back nonsense. Big Money indeed. Does my Steeler heart good when I hear the "HEATH" roar from Steeler Nation...especially in enemy territory.
 
Miller is everything you want in a TE.The one area that hurts Miller is yards after catch.
