Cant belive IM the first to start this
Rest In Peace ... Gene Upshaw
A Great part of the O Line who teamed with Art Shell to be Nasty to most D linemen. 11-time All pro and Proud member of the Hall... Also part of a trivia question... What player played in superbowls in three different decades.! RIP .. Gene Thanks for wearing the Silver & Black Proud !!!!

i'm a steelers fan and had great respect for upshaw and shell and the rest of the raider o-lines. one of the greatest 4 OG's of all time.
upshaw may never get all the credit he deserves for helping make the nfl the Big Show that it is now.
