  • Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Chuck Noll is one of the greatest coaches in the history of the NFL, but no coach can stay on top forever. And during week 8 of the 1991 NFL season, Noll said something after a 27-7 loss to the Seattle Seahawks that left everyone wondering if he was all there, because it made no sense and deserves a deep dive nearly 30 years later

    💥💥 There was a game between the Steelers and Seahawks in 1983 in which Pittsburgh was 5-2 and Seattle was 4-3.
    There was also a game in 1987 vs Seattle and in which Seattle was 7-4 and Pittsburgh was 6-5
    Also the super bowl in 2005.
    So both games in 1983 and 1987 was more meaningful then the one in this video that you said was the most meaningful game between the 2 franchises.

    In defense of Noll, I was friends with Carlton Haselrig, who I believe you will see wearing No. 77 on the OL in this video. Rig was Noll's last project. Rig told me in his final season Noll and he would sit down and have one on ones and Noll would pour out lessons he learned as one of Paul Brown's messenger guards on how to play the offensive line. The result was Carlton Haselrig, who didn't play college football, who was originally slated to be a defensive lineman, became an All-Pro guard the following season after Noll's lessons. I know in "A Football Life" Noll's wife Maryanne tells a story that in 1991 Noll himself said he was done. But there was one very notable exception.

  • @PittsburghMarky
    @PittsburghMarky 3 месяца назад +1

    Did this video really have to be made? In defense of Noll, he's making a postgame statement trying to take heat away from his team and has some stats to back it up- and I say that fully recognizing your point that some of the stats were inflated during garbage time. Neil O'Donnell was making one of his first starts and he's trying to defend him. Nothing more, nothing less. Also- considering in 1990 the Pittsburgh Steelers- with the top ranked defense in football- missed the playoffs in large part because they did not score an offensive touchdown in seven of their 16 games, perhaps putting up the one touchdown here looked good in comparison. I know I watched this very game- remember it for Tom Ricketts jumping offsides on consecutive plays- and though very disapointed with the loss as a Steelers fan did think the offense had shown improvement- even in this game- from Bubby Brister.

    Here's two opinions of mine where I think Chuck Noll was losing it:
    1. 1983. NOT drafting Dan Marino and trotting out the corpse of Terry Bradshaw for one final season
    2. 1989 Steelers: Yes they finished 9-7 and made it to the Divisional Round (the AFC Central that year was a logjam: Browns 9-6-1; Oilers & Steelers 9-7; Bengals 8-8), but they had a point differential of -61; which included getting shutout 3 times. Oddly enough, Chuck Noll did win Coach of the Year that year so .... yay. And they drafted future All Pro safety Carnell Lake.

      I'm, so, glad I'm not alone on this island, Terry Bradshaw stealing, "one last paycheck," was unforgivable, 1982 was a total fluke, no way do they make the Playoffs without, "The, Strike," 1989 felt like dumb luck, and, if anything, losing a close Game to the Broncos prevented a demoralizing massacre to the 49ers, he really should have gone out on a high note.

    Yeah Just like Tom Landry before him the game also passed him by because the Cowboys of the Mid to late 1980s were terrible unlike the early to mid 1980s. The the same thing with Noll through out the 1980s because there were only a few decent Steeler teams from the 1980s (1982 (due to the strike shorten season) (1983 Bradshaw's final year) (1984 when they made it to the AFC championship game against the Dolphins and Dan Marino) The one thing that I hate Chuck Noll for that he gave the Steelers Neil O'Donnell as the QB because he was drafted when Noll was the Coach I think it was 1987 or 1988 which made the Steelers lose SB XXX to Dallas.

    Back in 1989, the season where the Steelers lost their first 2 games by a combined 92-10 and still managed to make the playoffs and win a game there, Sports Illustrated described Noll as "The kind of guy who would walk the deck of the Titanic and ask what the dinghies were there for."

    Noll had steadily seen his lowered his expectations as Steelers legends retired. Extended greatness, then mediocrity left them with countless drafts picking late. Also he started out as a bullying prick and did his level best to humiliate Terry Bradshaw up until he realized that approach didn't work on Bradshaw. Only after he toned it a little bit was Bradshaw able to give his best. As it went, and the game had changed, Noll tried to turn it on and turn it off. By the end, nothing worked. He didn't have the thoroughbreds or even the hobby horses to get it done. Same thing happened to Ditka but way sooner.
