“I love this team…”

I love this team, I love everything that comes with being a Steeler.—Keisel, from his Post Game interview , available from the Steelers.

Brett also had a message for Steeler Nation following the game:

Felt good to be back out there tonight. Thank you for all the support.

Ron Cook, Pitsburgh Post Gazette pointed out the positives from last night’s loss to Carolina:

Jarvis Jones, Brett Keisel and Daniel McCullers stood out. I know, Jones with his hair, Keisel with his beard and McCullers with his massive body always stand out. But the three men were noticeable Thursday because of the plays they made.

Keisel started at defensive end and played the first three series. His best play came when he hit Anderson as he threw, forcing an incompletion. The crowd loved that. Keisel is a fan favorite, one of the team’s most popular players since the Super ’70s days.
