The Pittsburgh Steelers might have the NFL’s richest history of intimidating players. Today, T.J. Watt is putting fear into the hearts of opposing teams. However, the title for scariest Steeler of all time has to go to Jack Lambert. Lambert played linebacker for the legendary Steel Curtain defense of the 1970s, and he’s one of the best players in NFL history. Former NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski believes Lambert’s game would have translated well today.
“He’d be really good, especially because it seemed like he was very athletic as well, could cover pretty well,” Gronkowski said recently on his Dudes on Dudes podcast.
