When people think of the Pittsburgh Steelers of the 1970s, they typically think of the Steel Curtain and the 4 Super Bowl victories in 6 years. When thinking about coaches, the emperor, Chuck Noll, is typically the main topic of conversation. However, it should be noted just how important Bud Carson was to those vaunted teams.
You don’t know who Bud Carson is? He essentially built the Steel Curtain people use in their everyday vocabulary when talking about the black and gold, and he is also the man who won a Lifetime Achievement award by the Pro Football Writers of America recently.
