Pittsburgh Steelers coaching legend Chuck Knoll has died

[Deus Irae]

Charles Henry Noll, who lifted the Steelers from the depths of the National Football League and coached them to four-time Super Bowl champions by adhering to simple, long-held principles, died Friday in his home in Sewickley.

Noll, who had been under a doctor's care for an undisclosed illness, was 82.

His wife, Marianne, found him unresponsive at 9:45 p.m. and called 911. Paramedics pronounced him dead 10 minutes later.

I met him when the Steelers practiced here in RI at URI...he was a man who commanded your respect. Quietly exuded strength.

RIP Chuck.

He belongs in the greatest HC of all time discussion

It's funny in that he's rarely in that discussion. In my opinion, he's without a doubt the greatest HC of all time.
