History of the Steelers
The Steelers, one of the greatest in
the NFL. The Pittsburgh Steelers have got it together for the last 44 years of
Super Bowls. The reason for that is they have had 6 Super Bowl wins and 9 Super
Bowl appearances. That is more than any other team, the closest team to them is
the 49ers.
Steelers field name is Heinz field but it always hasn’t been
that forever they changed the name in the season of 2000 it was changed from
Three Rivers Stadium . It was called Three Rivers because its stadium is on the
edge of 3 rivers that connect, the Allegany River, the Ohio River, and the
Monongahela river. Three Rivers Stadium had 30 seasons played in it, the last
regular season game was played on Saturday December 16, 2000 against the
Washing ton Redskins, which they won.
Some of the greatest Steelers players that played at that
field where Kordell Stewert, Joe Greene, John Stallworth, Andy Russell, Lynn Swann, and Hines Ward. Some of the
Steelers that where elected into the hall of fame, but here are some of the
players that did get elected to the Steelers hall of fame, Chuck Noll, Jack
Ham, Terry Bradshaw, Jack Butler, Joe Greene, and Rod Woodson.
The Pittsburgh Steelers today have a vast foundation of
players and coaches. The Steelers head coach right now is Mike Tomlin and the
quarterback is Ben Roethlisberger, and the three people on defense that mainly
hold it together are Troy Polamalu, James Harrison, and Ryan Clark. The
Steelers cruel Rival is the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers colors are black and
yellow and that is one of their team songs. They have always had a talented
team and I believe they always will.
