As of this writing, Nick Bosa is one of the top Defensive Ends in football, which he wasted little time proving as the Second Overall Pick in 2019.

Bosa, the Big 10 Defensive Player for Ohio State in 2018, showcased his power and pass-rushing technique immediately by winning the Defensive Rookie of the Year.  A torn ACL held him to only two games as a sophomore, but he rocketed back in 2021 with a 15.5 Sack year and a league-leading 21 Tackles for Loss.  Bosa was a Pro Bowler again and the dominant force for a powerful defense on a contender.   That turned out to be just the beginning.

In 2022, Bosa led the NFL in Sacks (18.5) had 48 Quarterback Hits, and was the consensus Defensive Player of the Year.  Last year, he had his third straight double-digit Sack year, added a fourth Pro Bowl, and has already played in 12 Playoff Games. 

Entering 2023, Bosa has the stats to become an elite all-time player.

Trent Williams went to seven Pro Bowls with Washington but sat out the 2019 Season after he was misdiagnosed with a form of cancer and wanted to go to another team.  He got his wish with a 2020 trade to San Francisco, where on the West Coast, Williams has played the best football of his life.

A Pro Bowl Selection again in 2020, Williams added three more over the last three seasons, all while earning First Team All-Pros.  Williams has proven to be the finest Left Tackle in the NFL in the 2020s thus far and has anchored the Niners to three deep playoff appearances. 

Williams is aging like wine going into the 2024 Season.

The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other.  The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football Hockey and Basketball Lists.

At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next ten of the 2024 Hockey List, which you can comment on and vote on:

The new 81 to 90:

81. Gary Roberts
82. Tuukka Rask
83. Terry O’Reilly
84. Wayne Cashman
85. Ray Whitney
86. Mike Liut
87. Rick Nash
88. Brad Richards
89. Doug Jarvis
90. Doug Mohns

Rankings are impacted annually based on your comments and votes.

Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football, hockey and basketball lists.

Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023 revision of our top 50 Pittsburgh Steelers.

As for all of our top 50 players in football, we look at the following:

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Steelers made the playoffs but were eliminated in the first round.  They had no new entrants in the Top 50 but two major elevations.

As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:

1. Joe Greene
2. Jack Lambert
3. Mike Webster
4. Franco Harris
5. Jack Ham

You can find the entire list here.

T.J. Watt, the Former Defensive Player of the Year, last year’s runner-up, and Sack Leader rocketed to #12 from #28.

Cameron Heyward, a six-time Pro Bowl Defensive End moved to #19 from #22.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
