Re: Troy Polamalu retires
I say 2-3 years and he goes in. He also had two SB rings, and at his peak (which was short) truly was a game changer. I can think of about a half dozen games where Polomalu sealed a victory with a late interception or turned a late pick six to turn a loss into a win. At his peak he was arguably the...
