The Steelers will get their version of Mike Brown from the Rooney family eventually

So the Steelers can only be compared to other teams that started in 1933. Four of the Steels Titles were cheated in the 70's. And the Ravens can only be compared to other teams that started in 1996.

He doesn't even know Steeler history before the 70's he probably doesn't know it had taken the Steelers almost 40 years to win their first playoff game. The early years: Decades of futility In May 1933, in anticipation of the repeal of some of Pennsylvania's restrictive laws in the fall of that year, Rooney applied for a franchise with the NFL.[9] His request was granted on May 19, 1933, and the Pittsburgh Professional Football Club, Inc. joined the NFL in exchange for a US$2,500 franchise fee (roughly $46,000 in today's dollars).[10] The new team was known as the Pirates in reference to their baseball club landlords at Forbes Field. Before settling on Forbes, Rooney considered playing at Greenlee Field, which housed the city's Negro League baseball club.[11] Since the blue laws were not repealed until November's general election, the team was forced to play its first four home games on Wednesday nights.[8] Over the course of the next four decades, Rooney's new team was a study in frustration. They posted a winning record only eight times in their first 39 NFL seasons and never sniffed a championship.[8] Had they won a Championship you would hear them brag about it! 1972, Pittsburgh finished 11–3, first place in the AFC Central, and made the playoffs for the first time since 1947. |
