Steeler fans should also love J.Tatum as he gave the hit to start the "Immaculate Reception"

RIP to one of the greatest Buckeye defenders of all time. One hell of a hitter.

He was a great player and while he hit hard, he was never considered a "dirty player". Atkinson on the other hand, was a cheap shot artist and shouldn't be considered in the same sentence as Tatum................
