Do The 2019 Steelers Measure Up To The 1974 Team?!

  1. Yes. Despite Different Era's, They Are Generating As Much Havoc.

    Hello again everyone! Back as promised to round out this once forgotten subject I started!! With that said, I believe we have a conclusion...



    No, this defense does not compare to the 1974 team in terms of impact and legacy. For me, I figured as much even though the statistical similarities were there. However, there is one major point worth nothing here; the 2019 Pittsburgh Steelers have become the first team to lead the league in sacks and turnovers since...



    The 1974 "Steel Curtain"




    In terms of final stats in comparison to the 1974 Squad, I will have those figures up later today!!

    70s defense was able to stop the run and impose fear on opponents. We didn’t get any shutouts either
