I have always liked John Madden and would never say a bad word about him...but...

Chuck Noll is the only head coach to win four Super Bowls, coaching the Steelers to victory in Super Bowl IX (1975), Super Bowl X (1976), Super Bowl XIII (1979), and Super Bowl XIV (1980).

Noll was named 1972 AFC Coach of the Year and 1989 NFL Coach of the Year.

Noll retired as Steelers head coach in 1991 and was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame as soon as he was eligible in 1993.

Madden is the captain obvious of commentators! But he was a hell of a coach. I would have to agree, Noll was better and he never had to do an ace hardware or tinactin commercial.

Here we go.Knoll has 4 rings.It doesn't matter that he was forced out.Cowher came next.
Let's see Art Shell,Crusty The Clown,Norv Turner,Homer Simpson,Bill Callahan,Waylon Smithers,Jon Chucky Gruden,Sideshow Bob and Art Shell again.Am I missing someone? I'm sure I am,but anyways.
All the above are clowns.
I really have nothing against the Raiders but come on,every year it's the same thing."The Raiders are going to win it this year"
Every year same result.
The end result will always be that the Steelers are better.
Sorry Darth and all the Al Davis' Sith.
You can't fuck with the Steel

just my 2 cents
Cheers!!!!!!!!!
