Remembering Chuck Noll

The incredibly underrated but great Pittsburgh Steelers’ coach, Chuck Noll, passed away last week at the age of 82.

He guided and helped build what I believe to be the greatest team era in pro football history, namely the Steelers from (1974-1979), who won four of the six Super Bowls in those years.

Another coach from that era, John Madden, gets a “preach more violence,” football video game named for him, though he won but one title with tremendous Oakland Raiders’ teams. Noll, on the other hand, gets so little credit for winning four.

Yet the record speaks for itself, as Noll led the great player draft of 1974 and won 4 titles guiding a truly great team.
