Nfl Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh Steelers was founded in 1933 by Art Rooney. It is a professional football team. It is included in the Central Division of the American Football Conference (AFC) of the National Football League (NFL). Under the realignment plan of the league which took affect in 2002, the Steelers play in the North Division of AFC.
It was named after the National League baseball team of Pittsburgh. In 1938 the star runner back, Byron White, who was nicknamed Whizzer owing to his speed, was signed by Rooney. But despite the new addition the team only managed two victories. Originally named the Pirates, the team was renamed owing to their losses in 1940. They managed only three record wins during 1942-1949.
Their uniform is black and gold colored. The team got its name from the Pittsburgh factories that are in Pittsburgh’s and where the team played its initial matches and moved to a new stadium in 2001. They were the first team to record four consecutive victories in Super Bowls in the 70’s. The team was headed by Coach Chuck Noll, and included several star players.
Their defense was nick named as the Steel Curtain owing to their powerful defense abilities. Some of the star players of that time included Jack Ham, Jack Lambert, Mel Blount, Donnie Shell and Joe Greene and White. They were members of the defense that was rated as the top for three straight seasons during 1974-1976. They won the 1974 and 1975 season’s playoffs and the Super Bowls in the following seasons. Three years later in an electrifying match against the Cowboys they won, 35-31 in the Super Bowl. The Steeler’s had a strong lead after Bradshaw’s four touchdown passes in the closing minutes of the match.
The Dallas quarterback made a few touchdowns before Pittsburghs recovered and marked a victory. They earned their fourth title ever in 1980 after they defeated Los Angeles Rams at a score of 31-19. It was a last Super Bowl appearance for the team under Noll, who led them to two more division titles in the 12 seasons that followed. He retired in 1991 with a career best of 209 victories, which put him in the fourth spot in the history of NFL.
After the sad demise of Art Rooney in 1988, who had owned the club for over 50 years, his son Daniel Rooney became the acting franchise president. At That time Bill Cowher, who was a former linebacker for NFL was appointed the head coach for the Pittsburgh in 1992. He made them a solid team in the early 1990s and led them to three consecutive division victories from 1994-1996. The Steelers played in the Super Bowl post 1995 against the Cowboys but lost 27-17. They emerged victorious in the1996 season playoffs in the AFC Central Division against opponents Indianapolis Colts at 42-14, but lost out to New England Patriots at 28-3 in the following game.
