BUBBY BRISTER

Bubby Brister had a decent little run as the Steelers' starting quarterback in the late '80s and early '90s.  He led the Steelers to a Wild Card upset of the Houston Oilers in 1989, giving the legendary Chuck Noll his final playoff victory.  Eventually Bubby would settle into a long, fruitful career as an NFL backup.  His most notable stop was in Denver, where he would win two Super Bowls while holding John Elway's clipboard.  He finished his 14-year career with the Vikings in 2000 as a veteran presence behind first-year starter Daunte Culpepper.
