the left guard here for the pittsburgh steelers is number 66 allen fanuca and this august he's going to be inducted into the national football league hall of fame he was as good of pulling guard as there ever has been in the nfl you're watching my left guard here pull and just knock down a defensive end here from cincinnati and there goes willie parker you can just count the number of times when he would pull and yards were gained bam right there opening up the gate right there in a playoff game for the bus to go 25 yards 2005 biggest run in the game you know there's a popular highway that runs from chicago to los angeles route 66 get your kicks on route 66 that's what the steelers did and it was on all kinds it was screens like this right here picking off the man in coverage right there on willie parker for him to go 19 yards in that playoff win against cincinnati in the jungle and then this putting his man on his back right here down goes a bengal and in goes the bus five yards for a touchdown score so many big runs and big games were right on route 66 that's where the steelers got their kicks watch fanaka pull and just clean the alley out the play is called power up when he pulls to the strong side and the backs have run behind him so good for so long in this playoff game here in 2007 it wasn't just pulling to the right he could g lead and pull to the left as good of pulling guard as the nfl has ever seen for 13 seasons here against jacksonville steelers clinging to a one point lead late in the fourth quarter what'd they do they went down highway 66 route 66 clearing it out right there for dave report to go for five yards trying to run out the clock didn't quite get it done jackson would come back and win that game and then he took his talents to the jets and it was instant chemistry between the brickishaw ferguson and nick mangle and woody the whole group then hard sock to tight end he was the missing piece right there for rex ryan's team in 2009 they would run 610 times it was the same place it was get on route 66 let fannika just pull and clear the way out for thomas jones so many big runs sanchez a rookie quarterback behind a great offensive line with great chemistry was able to do playoff play action right here short passes long runs like this one dusty keller in a playoff game for 43 yards all set up by the play action they went to san diego and they shot the chargers because fanuc could get to the second level and guys like shawn green would cut right behind him big day for the jets this day right here here it is here he is just a zone read playing with mango but feeling color in the backside with brick and then going up on the linebacker and waiting for tony richardson to come and clean up and what do you got you got a jet's wall for sean green to run behind oh it was a big run 53 yards to pay dirt ping-ponging inside behind alex bennett and it was passing these stunts like this bam to keep it clean for a rookie quarterback sanchez to take the jets to an afc championship game and it was this brett favre you know in 2008 when he first came he brought the offense with there was just trap blocks and kicked out blocks you name it inside trap bam against kansas city bam boom down goes the chief there goes leon washington up the middle for 60 yards split it and hit it you know he only had a total of four holding calls in 13 years so consistent 201 starts including nine straight seasons where he started every single game and everywhere he went the running game went with him you watch the chemistry here the chemistry just can't be said enough right here how he works right here with the brick passes it off to mango and then scoops up to the nose tackle and then puts a cut on the line back that fit between the bricky shaw and nick mangold is exactly what they need bam look at this inside thomas jones touchdown runs and there was a final stop in arizona the offense was the same they were pulling fannika running opposite him getting him going one way countering him the other way and then it all culminated really in a super bowl 2005. ben roethlisberger for young ben roethlisberger in the second year it was this type of plays right here the longest run in super bowl history right on route 66 there goes willie parker to this day 55 super bowls have been run nobody has a longer run from scrimmage longer touchdown run than willie parker 75 yards right behind allen fanning 13 years in the nfl 201 regular season starts hardly any penalties so consistent pulling right pulling left like he did in this super bowl here the one for the bus in detroit jerome bettis's hometown they would win one for him largely behind that offensive line you take a look here the opening touchdown for the steelers of the game what'd they do ben in his second season got right on route 66 right behind him pulling left you watch this play right here and it's all about fannika marvel smith jeff hardings all the guys up front chris kimiatu you name it big mac starks over at right tackle it was a good offensive line but fannika was the star him and harding's inside passing stunts so that ben could have this kind of a passing lane to step up and flip the ball off right there to hides ward for a first down and he cleared the way for ben to have nice easy throwing lanes right here but make no mistake about it alivanica ran his way to the nfl hall of fame in canton ohio there was a bunch of steelers there he'll be joined by a family but this play still lives in infamy in the super bowl and it was all fannika right here with the lead block right on the outside there it is cleaning it out willie parker going 75 and allen fannika run block and trapping and pulling and power owing his way to canton ohio well-deserved allen fannika 13 great years in the nfl and everywhere you went the running game went with it group 66 we'll never forget
