The Pittsburgh Steelers had some truly great safeties in the 1970s, even if none of them have made it, as of yet, to the Hall of Fame. While Donnie Shell retired as one of the career leaders in interceptions, Mike Wagner and Glen Edwards were no slouches either.
There were Carnell Lake and Darren Perry in the 1990s, and then in the 2000s, you had the great period of Troy Polamalu, who overlapped first with Chris Hope and then finally paired with Ryan Clark to make one of the very best safety tandems in team history, if not the best.
