The Steel Curtain was the defensive line of the 1970s American football team Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League (NFL). The line was the backbone of the Steelers dynasty, which won four Super Bowls (IX, X, XIII, and XIV) in six years.[1]
The Steelers began their 1976 season 1-4 and lost their quarterback, Terry Bradshaw. For the nine games remaining in the season, the Steelers recorded five shutouts (three of them uninterrupted), and only allowed two touchdowns (both in a single game), and five field goals. The defense allowed an average 3.1 points per game and the team had an average margin of victory of 22 points. Eight of the Steelers' starting eleven defensive players were selected for the Pro Bowl that year, and four would be selected to the Hall of Fame.[2]
The Steel Curtain included:
No. 75 "Mean" Joe Greene - defensive tackle 1969-1981, 4-time Super Bowl champion (IX, X, XIII, XIV), 10-time Pro Bowl selection (1969-1976, 1978, 1979), 2-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year (1972, 1974), NFL 1970s All-Decade Team, Pro Football Hall of Fame, Pittsburgh Steelers All-Time Team, NFL 100 All-Time Team
No. 68 L. C. Greenwood - defensive end 1969-1981, 4-time Super Bowl champion (IX, X, XIII, XIV), 6-time Pro Bowl (1973-1976, 1978, 1979), NFL 1970s All-Decade Team, Pittsburgh Steelers All-Time Team
No. 63 Ernie Holmes - defensive tackle 1972-1977, 2-time Super Bowl champion (IX, X)
No. 78 Dwight White - defensive end 1971-1980, 4-time Super Bowl champion (IX, X, XIII, XIV), 2-time Pro Bowl (1972, 1973), Pittsburgh Steelers All-Time Team
Greene is the only surviving member of the line, with the deaths of Holmes and White in 2008 and Greenwood in 2013.

I'm 70-year-old this year and what a time it was being a young man watching the steelers from 1972 to this very day what a great team and a great time to be young watching the Pittsburgh Steelers, And guess what Ernie Holmes signed my grandson's football the year Roethlisberger Berger won his first Super Bowl.

I met Terry Bradshaw. He spoke at my Dad's college graduation. I shook his hand, and he knelt down- KNELT DOWN- to look me in the eye and tell me, "It's nice to meet you, son." I'll never forget that.

I was born in 71. Farm kid middle of nowhere in Kansas. I was born loving sports. When i was 5, my older siblings were watching football. I saw the steelers and loved those black uniforms. The love affair was born with the Steelers. Mean Joe was my favorite. I got a poster of the steel curtain for xmas and i would fall asleep staring at that poster while listening to MNF with Jack Buck and Hank Stram. Tiny , red AM radio that i slept with by my ear. Something the younger generation will never understand, is how the NFL was back then. U had a noon game (always Steelers) and the late game(always Cowboys). Every one living in remote areas were predominantly Steelers or Cowboys fans. What made the rivalry so intense was the players spent entire careers with your team. The arguments of kids at school, family reunions, were intense. My love for the Steelers was gradually replaced by the chiefs, but i still root for the steelers. My hatred of the Cowboys will never leave. As a Chiefs fan we realize how fortunate we are to have Mahomes. I hate comparisons of greatest teams, players. The evolution of how the game is played make comparisons and stats moot. You can only use the eye test. For me, The 70s Steelers are the greatest.

Even a lifelong Dallas Cowboy fan like me cannot help but truly admire and respect what the Pittsburgh Steelers accomplished in the 1970s and the incredibly amazing, super talented and tough as nails players on their team. The city of Pittsburgh was going through some tough times in the 1970s and the Steelers with their four Super Bowl victories in 1974, 1975, 1978 and 1979 brought some much needed unity, happiness, joy and fun to their city and their fans. The Steelets even got a little help from the Pittsburgh Pirates with two Worlds Series wins in 1971 and 1979 and also the Pittsburgh Panthers won the 1976 college football championship. And those Pittsburgh Steelers from the 1970s built a foundation and tradition of winning that later Steeler teams rested on and inspired those to win a few more Super Bowls and be consistent winners throughout the past 40 to 50 years. Who knew and who could have forseen what the 1969 Pittsburgh Steelers with a record of 1-13 would go on to accomplish over the next ten seasons ?

ILB Jack Ham and 43 strong side OLB Jack Ham are percieved by many as the goat at their respected positions , OLB Andy Russell's name routinely came up on potential Hof induction , and remember the Steelers first SB winning team.wasnt a elite offensive team ,the second SB victorious team hasn't yet thoroughly explored Stalworth as a pronounced offensive threat ,thus the Steelers legendary defense and rushing attack was it's defined weapon . A Steelers defense that objectively has 5 players who can be considered the goat at their positions when Mean Joe Greene ,Mel Blount and Donnie Shell are included in the Lambert and Ham equation . Donnie Shell career 51 ints was #1 all time decades after his retirement for a ss ,his combined fum rec made him ,#1 in ss career turnovers , the Steel Curtain defense possessed 4defensive player of the year winners Green twice 72,74 ,Blount ,Ham ,75 by two separate sporting news organizations , 76 Lambert . Giants elite defense can't began to compare to that . The Steelers had to compete against 70's dynasty's dolphins ,Cowboys , 4 time sb losers Vikings ,One time SB winner , two time sb participant dynasty raiders who had the best winning pct in all of north American team sports , in 75 the afc central was the first div to have three teams win double digits wins ,Steelers 12-2 ,Bengals 11-3 oilers 10-4 ,the Steelers won all 4 contests vs those div foes . 5 times during the 70's the AFC Central had multiple teams make post season ,the 78''79 oilers were considered. arguably the best team.inthe NFL entering post season The rams were also a team.during most of the 70's who were viewed as being potentially the best team during a particular.season ,the Steelers opposition wasn't by any means horribly subpar in contrast to the giants .The Steelers accomplished more while having to turnover some of its roster obstacles after 77 . ​@@ralphcastro3046

He indicated if Ernie didn’t feel like conditioning after practice with the rest of the d-linemen, he would just walk over and sit under a tree. Tom indicated none of the coaches really wanted to deal with Ernie, so he got to do his own thing.

L.C. Greenwood had excellent Super Bowl games against two HOF tackles (Yary and Wright), yet he is not in the HOF. He also had regular season accolades (Pro Bowls, All-AFC, All-Pro).

Can’t remember the last time my beloved Steelers were dominant. It’s a crying shame.

Ironically enough the Steelers gave rise to the description of the NFL north as the "black and blue division". An opposing coach said that "you will probably beat the Steelers but they will leave you black and blue".

Though I was born & raised in NYC my dad had the decency to raise me a Steelers fan in the '70s. And they're the only team in any sport that still makes me feel like an 8 year old when I see the uniform. Including the Yankees - my other favorite team.

The best team in the NFL today could not win against this team . They were built from the top to the bottom with perfect puzzle pieces.

1974 - the best draft in NFL (or perhaps any league's) history. Swann. Stallworth. Lambert. Webster. A roll call of Canton's elite.

Steeler nation owes a great debt of gratitude to Bill Nunn. He found the talent, which became the Steelers, defensive line and other players that the Steelers drafted on his recommendation. But I see other people have been taking bows for his work for years

Gran nostalgia volver a ver a mi equipo de toda la vida. Tuve la suerte y la fortuna de verlos jugar y ganar esos super bowls inolvidables. Estos videos e historias espero se los pongan a ver a las nuevas promesas. Y eran shingadazos de los buenos. Harta nostalgia. Gracias mil por estos bellos recuerdos. Saludos.

Some time back I read a story about Bradshaw. He told of his struggles his first season or so. How there was so much to learn. He admitted to being a lost ball in tall grass. He was trying too hard, and trying to overthink everything. Finally there was THAT game. I don't recall what game it was or which season of his it was, but he tells of how after struggling early in the game, he broke the huddle, came up to the line and.... in an instant 'the light came on' for him. In that instant all the stuff he was trying to learn, all the things he was trying too hard at FINALLY jelled for him. Everthing suddenly made sense!
