THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS

The Pittsburgh Steelers: The Gist

Though perennial Super Bowl contenders today, the Steelers weren’t the powerhouse they are now when the franchise was established by Art Rooney on July 8, 1933. The team wasn’t even known as the Steelers, calling themselves the Pittsburgh Pirates until 1940.

All the struggles experienced by the franchise in its early years are a distant memory these days. The Steelers now boasts a total of six Super Bowl titles, the most of any NFL team. Starting with their success in the 1970’s, the proud team that Rooney built went on to rack up a total of eight AFC championships and a staggering 27 playoff appearances.

In the coming 2013 NFL season, the Steelers will once again be spearheaded by Ben Roethlisberger and the stingy defense the team has been long known for.
