Not "my dad told me about it"...how many have you seen your team win in your lifetime?
I've seen all 8 appearances on TV and of course the 6 Ws...I must admit though...I don't remember the details of the MIN game aside from the DEF just totally shutting down Chuck Foreman. IDK when the nickname officially took hold, but the '74 season the Steel Curtain was born imo.
Funny how this goes...the '76 DEF was the most dominating of them all yet that team did not win a ring that year...they followed it up in '78 & '79...but the Steel Curtain was more like the Aluminum Curtain then. He doesn't get much credit for it, but Bradshaw had come of age by then and the OFC was really the catalyst of the 3rd and 4th.
