Trio Of Franchise Greats From 1970s Headline Steelers Mt. Rushmore

When it comes to the Mt. Rushmore of all-time greats in franchise history, narrowing it down to just four players in the illustrious history of the Pittsburgh Steelers is rather difficult to do.

NFL Throwback, part of NFL+, attempted to do just that.

On Mt. Rushmore in Steelers’ history, NFL Throwback selected quarterbacks Terry Bradshaw and Ben Roethlisberger, defensive lineman Joe Greene and linebacker Jack Lambert as the four best players in franchise history.

Honorable mentions included safety Troy Polamalu, cornerbacks Mel Blount and Rod Woodson, linebacker Jack Ham, defensive lineman Ernie Stautner, running backs Jerome Bettis and Franco Harris, and wide receivers Lynn Swann and John Stallworth.
