- Ernie_Holmes abstract "Earnest Lee "Ernie" Holmes (11 July 1948 – 17 January 2008), also nicknamed "Fats", was an American football player Defensive Tackle who played with the Pittsburgh Steelers in the National Football League (NFL). He played 7 seasons from 1972 to 1977 and was a two-time Super Bowl champion with the Steelers. He was a lineman of the legendary Steel Curtain defense. His fellow linemen during this period were Joe Greene, Dwight White, and L. C. Greenwood. Multiple Steelers players from the era have publicly stated that Holmes was as good a player as Joe Greene. While quarterback sacks were not an official NFL statistic until 1982, the Steelers credit Holmes with a career total of 40, eighth on the franchise's all-time list. This includes team-high totals of 11 in 1974 (including a stretch of six consecutive games with a sack, which ties him with Greene and Greg Lloyd for the longest such streak in team history) and 10.5 in 1975. He was intensely fierce on the playing field and was often characterized as the most feared man on the Steelers defense. However, Holmes was also known for being wild, lacking personal discipline, and often out of control, traits that ultimately led to his demise. At one point, both Holmes and his girlfriend had an arrowhead shaved onto their heads.Holmes played college football at Texas Southern University and was selected by the Steelers in the eighth round of the 1971 NFL Draft. After growing impatient with his weight problems, the Steelers traded Holmes in 1978 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he failed to make the team coming out of preseason. He played three games for the New England Patriots in 1978 before retiring.In 1986, Holmes appeared in WrestleMania 2 and made other appearances as a professional wrestler. His weight ballooned to over 400 pounds after his football career ended.Holmes's number 63 was later issued to All-Pro center Dermontti Dawson. The number has since been taken out of circulation as being "unofficially retired" in honor of Dawson.".
