It was the crowning achievement for what would become the NFL's Team of the '70s and the greatest dynasty pro football has ever known. The Pittsburgh Steelers broke through in 1974 and scaled to the pinnacle of the NFL in one of the most remarkable seasons that sports has ever known.
Now you can relive the Steelers' memorable 1974 season with this guide that explores the entire year game by game, from the opening day whitewash of the Colts all the way through the glorious triumph in Super Bowl IX, as told in the original newspaper stories.
The early weeks of the '74 season were all about new quarterback "Jefferson Street" Joe Gilliam. Before long, the story was Pittsburgh's remarkable Steel Curtain defense and the powerful running of Franco Harris -- a merciless combination that carried the Steelers across the finish line and delivered beloved owner Art Rooney his long-deserved championship.
There were many highlights along the way, including a vital late-season win over the Patriots, convincing playoff victories over the Bills and Raiders and of course the defensive masterpiece in Super Bowl IX against the Vikings that turned the Steel City into a championship town.
All of the highs and lows from the exciting season are here. A full recap and box score from every game is included, so you can follow the exploits of Chuck Noll's gang from start to finish as it won the big one and gave notice that it would win so much more (thanks in large part to a '74 draft class that was the greatest ever, featuring an astonishing FOUR future Hall of Famers).
As an added bonus, links to many video films and highlights are included to add more depth to the story of the 1974 Steelers. Whether you are a die-hard Steelers fan or an NFL history buff, you will enjoy this look back at the 1974 Pittsburgh Steelers.
