There are five colors to note in the current logo: yellow, blue, red, black, and gray. Some of the notables from the 70s who would go on to become Hall of Famers included: They were the first team to win four Super Bowls and the only team to win back-to-back Super Bowls twice. They earned eight consecutive playoff berths, seven AFC Central titles, and four AFC championships from 1972 to 1979. The 1970s was truly an era where the Pittsburgh Steelers reigned. This logo (and the enhanced version) defined the team that would eventually earn the name, the Steel Curtain. Of course, by this time, they were wearing the logo design that featured the wordmark with the name Steelers in black, and three colorful four-pointed stars in the colors of blue, red, and yellow in the middle of a gray circular frame. In 1975, they won their first Super Bowl title (Super Bowl IX) against the Minnesota Vikings, with a score of 16 to 6. It was in 1947 when the mergers were no more, that the Steelers made the playoffs for the first time in the team’s history.
What we know is that each time they merged, a new logo evolved. Whether there was thought for them to be more than just temporary still remains to be seen. That was the initial reason for the mergers. But apparently, football rosters were depleted due to a shortage of players with World War II looming. It’s as if the Steelers were trying to team up with other teams to become their own team. The following year, they merged with the Chicago Cardinals for another one-year relationship. In the early 1940s, they merged with the Philadelphia Eagles, which seemingly didn’t go well. Before this time, the Steelers had been trying to find their way and even merged with other teams a couple of times. Maybe that big AFC Central Division title championship had something to do with their illustrious logo.
Wow! By this time, Chuck Noll was their head coach, and he would be with the team for 23 seasons until 1991. They didn’t win any championships until 1972, which would be about 40 years after their birth. The first 40 years of the team’s history is known as one of the struggling Steelers just trying to find their way. The Steelers got off to a depressing start. Although now one of the toughest and most respected teams in the National Football League (NFL), it wasn’t always this way. The Pittsburgh Steelers were founded by Arthur J.
