  • 1.) What Was the Original Name of the Pittsburgh Steelers? B. the Pirates
    1.) What was the original name of the Pittsburgh Steelers? B. The Pirates The Pittsburgh football franchise was founded by Art Rooney on July 7, 1933. When he chose the name for his team, he followed the customary practice around the National Football League of naming the football team the same as the baseball team if there was already a baseball team established in the city. So the professional football team was originally called the Pittsburgh Pirates. 2.) How many Pittsburgh Steelers have had their picture on a Wheaties Box? C. 13 Since Wheaties boxes have started featuring professional athletes and other famous people, 13 Steelers have had their pictures on the box. These players are Kevin Greene, Greg Lloyd, Neil O'Donnell, Yancey Thigpen, Bam Morris, Franco Harris, Joe Greene, Terry Bradshaw, Barry Foster, Merril Hoge, Carnell Lake, Bobby Layne, and Rod Woodson. 3.)

  • 76 STEELERS: a (Steel) Curtain Call
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 22, No. 3 (2000) THE ‘76 STEELERS: A (Steel) Curtain Call By Ed Gruver Even greatness, it seems, is no guarantee for glory. On the day after Christmas, 1976, the Pittsburgh Steelers saw their run at an unprecedented third straight Super Bowl title end in sunny California with a 24-7 loss to the Oakland Raiders. Some 33 years later, the defeat still stings members of a team many believe was the greatest in Pittsburgh's proud history. “I've never played in a game where our two star running backs were out," middle linebacker Jack Lambert said once. “I’ve made the comment a couple of times, ‘Give us a six-pack, and we’ll go out and play (the Raiders) again.'” Injuries suffered the week before in a playoff win over Baltimore sidelined Steeler backs Franco Harris and Rocky Bleier for the AFC championship game against the arch-rival Raiders. The loss was crushing, since Bleier and Harris had become just the second backfield tandem in NFL history to each rush for more than 1,000 yards, joining the Larry Csonka-Mercury Morris pairing in Miami, who had accomplished the feat in ‘72. To compensate for the absence of his starting backfield, Pittsburgh head coach Chuck Noll installed a three-tight- end offense featuring Larry Brown, Bennie Cunningham and Randy Grossman, with fullback Reggie Harrison as the team's lone setback. The result was disastrous, and seemed to confuse Steelers' quarterback Terry Bradshaw more than the Oakland defense. Noll tried to simplify Bradshaw’s assignments by calling plays from the sideline, but the Steelers still didn't get a first down until midway through the second quarter.
