DK's Daily Shot of Steelers: Still greatest dynasty?

[@ChrisHasak]

Steve Spagnulo should absolutely go to the hall of fame. His playoff defensive game plans have won 4 super bowls

[@dannyjohnson8122]

What's so wild about the 70s Steelers is that the 76' team, the one that would have given them the 3peat, was generally considered the best team. They lost both their starting running backs right before the A.F.C. Championship game. During that season the defense went on a run of 9 straight games with 5 shutouts and a total of 28 POINTS ALLOWED FOR THE WHOLE 9 GAMES!!!!

[@AFL67pitt]

And their 3rd string RB & their 4th RB got hurt in game at the end the Tight Ends or Lynn Swan were lining up in the backfield

[@MarkCunningham-of7kj]

💯 facts Danny! I remember it well, we blew out Colts in Baltimore but lost Franco/Bleier during that playoff game!

[@steelerfan1933]

Among those 5 shutouts, 3 in a row. Amazing!

[@MarkCunningham-of7kj]

@@steelerfan1933 Yup and Mike Kruczek started a bunch of games while Bradshaw was down and didn't we start the season 1 - 4 or something crazy like that?

[@steelerfan1933]

@@MarkCunningham-of7kj That's correct. 1-4 start and then won 9 straight to finish 10-4.

[@victorsimmons5776]

the way you expressed this topic made my heart jump you just reminded me why I'm a Steelers fan

[@CaroleToth45]

So thankful for have been around and watched those teams play and win - always hopeful to see the Steelers achieve that level of play/success again.

[@MarkCunningham-of7kj]

DK, I've seen this photo many times, displayed at the end of 74 Steelers America's Game feature. What i never noticed until today is Coach Noll actually having fun, look at the joy on his face, with his guys carrying him off the field in New Orleans! BTW once the Steelers HOF fatigue dies down i believe LC and Andy Russell will get in! Awesome show today sir! 😎

[@Zack_Balo]

DK, my grandfather owned a welding shop in town for many years. And during the 70s he would “employ” some of the Steelers legends because they didn’t make that much back then (laughable to think now) and one guy he always spoke glowingly of was LC Greenwood. I grew up thinking of him as some Paul Bunyan, or other folk tale character, because of how my grandfather described him as a man and player. How is he still not in the hall of fame? The gold shoes should be enough on their own!

[@lazaro2710]

When at my 61 years old I live the results year after year of the team, I then remember the greatest moments of the 70's when I was very young and some of the exciting moments under the Cower era and, why not, when Tomlin still had some of the players of the generation that won a Super Bowl and reach another one. This means that we only have at this moment those great memories of what used to be a dominant and referent franchise in NFL. Thanks for bringing this up Dejan, regards Lazaro

[@RobertMRyder]

I see what you're trying to do, DK. Good luck. You are not alone. The voices are getting louder. Made me also think of how close the Steelers were to a second dynasty period... which bumped into the peak Patriots era.

[@danklimko9723]

Love how you are level headed and fair

[@DavidRold-pt3ng]

DK, thank you for mentioning LC Greenwood. It's a shame they never put him into the Hall Of Fame. Should have probably been a first ballad HOF. I used to preach about Donnie Shell too, but he finally made it & was alive to receive it

[@gregiskat8354]

GREAT show as always buddy, Happy Friday, hope you are back home soon

[@bemoore4]

Chris Jones is a 3-time 1st team All-Pro. Everyone with that on their resume gets in the Hall of Fame.

[@josephdonovan9125]

Along with the Super Bowls

[@dwaynethomas4655]

I listen to you religiously because you are the only one i see or hear so far that brake it down in compartment. Thanks DK

[@kentsturgill5945]

Good morning DK . The superstition thing got me . I remember doing similar things. You bring up great ppints in the argument for the good guys. I often wondered if I was the only one concerned with these things as other teams started collecting SB wins. Great show thanks DK

[@jerryyeager1307]

Well DK I agree 100 percent. I'm going to add one, somewhere around 50-55 years and standing. K.C. has a ways to go by that standard. The Eagles can change that as well. I also believe that Chuck Nolls defense would have shut them down like a bad habit. Thank you DK, Awesome

[@anthonysantana4278]

Great show..

[@DKPS_Steelers]

Thanks for listening, Anthony! -

[@ryanjamesc9996]

The last ten years have squandered and tarnished the Steelers dynasty and legacy. If things continue as they are for a few years, I don’t see this franchise ever returning to greatness #PSFL

[@coreyanderson786]

We love you DK

[@blutomindpretzel1735]

whenever I hear that the Hall of Fame has too many Steeler players I simply say, they had a complete roster of talent. Not just a Brady/Gronk Mahomes/Kelce dynamic Ask anybody, 70s Steelers was probably one of the best football roster of all time

[@doctorhorton]

You are right DK, heck I forgot Hopkins is currently on the Chiefs

[@michaelguyton5462]

Another thing to add DK is that the 70s Stillers basically had a core of players that stayed together through the four Super Bowls. I believe something like 22 players collected four rings. How many Chiefs players will have collected four rings if they win next week? I can promise you it's not even close!

[@jayvincent1865]

I can relate. I had that NFL bed spread. I put duct tape over the cowgirls, vikings and the Cleveland skidmarks..

[@almightylordgodjesus2396]

My favorite photograph!

[@ricklove8588]

Smokey and the Bandit movie, commercials. They were sweeping America. I was single digit myself untill the last SB win

[@stevecowder4774]

At least the Steelers are still the only team to win back to back twice. We’ve owned that record for 45 years, and I believe that’ll remain for some time to come. But rivals or not, I have no problem rooting for Philly in this upcoming rematch. Why not ? What Pennsylvania sports fan doesn’t want to see Barkley get a ring ? Go Eagles !!

[@thundergod178]

Ok DK, I couldn't grab my phone quick enough, but you said exactly what I was about to type! Tell me how many hall of famers there gonna have compared to the Steelers dynasty!! It ain't even close!! And the same thing apply to the patriots getting prepared to them!!

[@steelerfan1933]

Stop worrying about Creed Humphrey, fellow fans. I'm perfectly content to have gotten Pat Freiermuth instead, now that Zach Frazier is a Steeler. It was an ugly road to arrive here, but here we are.

[@mspittsburgh4247]

good afternoon

[@dannyjohnson8122]

AMEN!!! DK! AMEN!!!

[@UselessKnowledge904]

I don't think you can even compare the two. The 70s were a different time. Quarterbacks couldn't run around for 7 seconds without having their heads knocked off. I think you have to separate dynasties. Not the same league or rules.

[@RumHutProductions]

A friend of mine from Michigan asked me about Roman Wilson and I just put my hands up

[@robertobeckh47]

As always my Friend DK great show. I admit you got me in the start of this and when you broad the main aproach of Canton I Just relief and laugh louder of course thats why The Steelers from 70's are the best of them All with no discussion 🖤💛🖤💛🏈🏈🏈🏈✌🏻😎 Thank U so much to clarify this.!!!!!

[@jayvincent1865]

Our division is significantly a RPO gang. Read option is now the hardest offense to defend. We need to get on that train..

[@berniebuzzelli7267]

Superstition was not in short supply during the Seventies. Super bowl X, same food, same drinks, everyone in the same seats, bobble heads properly positioned, but where's John?? When he strolled in at halftime he caught a full broadside form the room. He calmly reminded us that he hadn't come down until halftime for SB IX. Apologies flowed, superstitions remained intact, and SB X was in the bag, with Raymond knocking the Cowboy bobblehead over at the appropriate time.

[@gabrielm.rodriguez263]

"STEELERS GREATEST TEAM EVER"! OF THE 70's.

[@ManuelKimbrell]

Those were the days

[@UselessKnowledge904]

I think you had an overall better NFL during the early Ben era then now. Teams were more talented and better coached. Maybe I'm just jaded.

[@ricklove8588]

They also did not lose 1

[@MarkCunningham-of7kj]

Awesome point Rick

[@jesserossi9973]

Greatest thumbnail

[@mariocarbone107]

There's only 1 dynasty and that's Steelers second to none !!!!!

[@Thisguy5]

If I’m an offensive player I would never ever wanna play for Tomlin.. Watching him operate, makes me appreciate Big Ben so much more..

[@jayvincent1865]

Ben changing calls on the fly is something we'll never see again.

[@steelerfan1933]

I will, begrudgingly, be rooting for the Eagles. Dammit, Buffalo.

[@infinity2z3r07]

Chiefs ring of honor running low on space after all the referees and taylor swift

[@robertzenniful]

The ultimate comparison down the road will be level of competition and the amount of Hall of Famer, so far the Steelers have Hall of Fame from those teams. While the Chiefs will probably have 2 Hall of Fame for sure right now. Always keeping in mind, the Steelers had to fight their way through other dynasties not just teams

[@TonyRome711]

Not even close. The stats that the 70s dynasty had are un matched. Plus we played the toughest teams of 70s doomsday Dallas. Purple people eaters. Raiders. Dolphins and others that were great teams. Our defense was ultra great. Chiefs are a good dynasty not Really great because of the competition they beat. Steelers The Greatest!!

[@MarkCunningham-of7kj]

Don't forget the Oilers and Earl freakin Campbell in the late 70s, your absolutely right

[@sambyrd1319]

Great video DK, with that being said how do you feel Bradshaw’s legacy as a all time great QB is impacted by the last couple of Dynasties in the leagues history seeming to be much more focused on the QB as opposed to the 70s Steeler having the defense take most of that attention? Fairly or unfairly it seems Bradshaw doesn’t get much credit as a cerebral QB

[@balayagesalon]

Tomlin should be embarassed he hasn't brought our Steelers back to greatness

[@alhall537]

Living in the past for sure

[@doctorhorton]

I feel like you are missing a future legend. Let’s see we have Andy Reed, Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and hmm who else… … ah yes Jake from State Farm!

[@petegdula4749]

😅

[@richdurbin6146]

Well, we don’t talk about the dynasties of 40s 50s and 60s, and now the 70s are fading in the rear view mirror. In 50 years we’ll barely talk about the Chiefs and Patriots.

[@TerryMccarthy-s3r]

The Kansas City Chiefs need some Hanson Brothers

[@RunBayou]

But like. Was Wilson really THAT far behind, he couldn't get a screen, a slant, a curl?

[@jayvincent1865]

Andy Reid got to the SB with McNabb... End of story.. He and his philosophy are the factor.

[@daveshipley2774]

I'm ready to watch those 3 go into the Hof. Retire already lol

[@brucemihalick4117]

Steelers are much better than the chiefs, it's just that there are not enough people to remember them. The chiefs are the current trend.

[@DoubleOTEN]

Sad the Steelers at one point was the greatest team in the NFL…. Now they can barely reach the playoffs… At one point the Steelers stood alone with 6 championships…. They can’t even get that 7 championship every year it’s the same sh!t … TOMLIN NEEDS TO GO !!!! LETS GO STEELERS!!!!

[@haroldmccoy-k7e]

If andy reid wins a 4 Lombardi trophy, in 6 sb appearances he is right behind Noll onthe all time HC hierarchy tree ,a very possible additional Lombardi trophy inthe upcoming seasons, propels him past our Steelers Chuck Noll. My all time headcoach top ten lists ,no nepotism homer bond for my team Steelers allowed.1 Paul Brown 2 Bill Belichick,3 Vince Lombardi 4George Halas 5Curly Lambeau 6Noll 7Bill Walsh 8Joe Gibbs9 Don Shula 10 Andy Reid. Outside top ten ,Tom Landry,Bill Parcels,Tom Flores ,Tom Coughlin,Mike Shannahan ,Bud Grant, Marv Levy ,Dan Reeves . The patriots Belichick,Brady regime based upon Lombardi trophy's and longevity already passed our Steelers as the greatest dynasty, spy gate ,altering football scheme certainly played a part to a degree in the dynamic dynasty run ,yet even our former Steelers sb winning headcoach Cowher adamantly dismissed spygate as being the reason his teams lost against the Patriots in conference championships . Sadly ,numbers showcase dynasty patriots 6 sb wins opposed to Steelers dynasty 4 sb victories. Im pulling for the eagles in sb 59 to help keep Reid from getting closer to surpassing Noll . Go Steelers

[@samoliver5995]

6 SBs

[@michaeltorres7696]

How can he get better when he didnt play at all his rookie season? Wouldn’t he be making rookie mistakes his second season now?

[@terryduffy3464]

Maybe that’s makes them better because they are doing this with out HOF players. They win 3 in a row, sorry they in my opinion are better. I grew up here watched them win all those Super Bowls huge Steeler fan. You win three in a row, four out of six I don’t think Hall of Fame players dictate a Dynasty.

[@asare240]

Sorry man most fans dont even know who the guys you named are. Its gonna be chiefs is the greatest dynasty to modern fans.

[@utah2nyc250]

I’m beyond embarrassed knowing that we still employed the worst coach of all times tomlin it’s making sure he bury the Steelers to the ground

[@allendennison3428]

That's your opinion

[@utah2nyc250]

@ let me guess you’re a tomlin cheerleader 😂 🤦‍♂️

[@mikeclark4480]

Think the ownership/front office of Chiefs is being over looked in their run. Yes I'm tired of the swifties but no denying what Hunt has put together since hiring Reid.

[@BobbyDillon-ug5te]

I enjoy DK, but this is silly. As a lifelong Steelers fan from Washington, PA, I can honestly say the Steelers 70's dynasty is not the greatest. This will be unpopular to say, but the Patriots dynasty is the greatest of all time. From 2001-2019, the Patriots went to 9 SB's, winning 6. They were in the SB roughly once every 2 years, for 2 decades. There were plenty of HOF players on those teams and they dominated all the HOF QBs of that generation - Manning, Roethlisberger, Brees, Rogers, etc. To say the Steelers 70's dynasty is the greatest is just being a dishonest homer. And it makes us look petty.
