The Steelers are the only NFL team that sports their logo on only one side of the helmet. At first, this was a temporary measure because the Steelers weren't sure they would like the look of the logo on an all-gold helmet. They wanted to test them before going all-out.\n\nEquipment manager Jack Hart was instructed to put the logo only on one side of the helmet - the right side. The 1962 Steelers finished 9-5 and became the winningest team in franchise history to date. The team finished second in the Eastern Conference and qualified for the Playoff Bowl. They wanted to do something special for their first postseason game, so they changed the color of their helmets from gold to black, which helped to highlight the new logo.\n\nBecause of the interest generated by having the logo on only one side of their helmets and because of their team's new success, the Steelers decided to leave it that way permanently.

I don't know about the Steelers but the '33' has been on the Rolling Rock label since the beer's debut in 1939. \n\nNo one is sure why, but you can read about speculation here:\nhttp://www.snopes.com/business/hidden/rolling.asp

It alternates from year to year. AFC in even-numbered years (like 2006) and NFC in odd-numbered (Philly last year). The home team doesn't HAVE TO wear their "home jersey", they just get first choice.

just because the steelers stink

In 1943 the Pittsburgh Steelers merged with the Philadelphia Eagles for one year, due to the manpower shortage caused by WWII (many NFL players were pressed into military service). The 'Steagles' were coached by the Steelers' Walt Kiesling and the Eagles' Greasy Neale, finishing 5-4-1.\n\nIn 1944 the Steelers merged with the Cardinals (of Chicago, at that time) and were known as 'Card-Pitt.' This team was coached by Kiesling and the Cardinals' Phil Handler. However, this team finished 0-10.

It is my understanding that the NFL has been requiring players to wear helmets for many years now.  They are standard equipment.\n\nPS. Patriots rule.

They tried it some years back but found that the equipment maade the helmit fit a problem, along with the possible medical problems from a blind side hit, don't know if they still use it. Most Quarterbacke have plays they run and signals are sent in from the side line by the #2 quarterbacks

Obviously The University of Michigan Wolverines\n\nMichigan's football helmet is surely one of the most instantly recognizable icons in college sports. The famous "winged" design dates from 1938 when Coach Herbert O. "Fritz" Crisler arrived from Princeton to begin a new era in Michigan football. Even as the design and composition of helmets evolved from stitched cowhide to high-tech, molded plastic, the winged design has remained the pre-eminent symbol of Michigan football.\n\nThe distinctive helmet also had practical advantages on the field. Crisler figured the helmet would help his quarterbacks find receivers downfield. "There was a tendency to use different colored helmets just for receivers in those days, but I always thought that would be as helpful for the defense as for the offense," Crisler recalled.

There's no way the Steelers are the best team in the league. They were mediocre at best for the first half of the season before getting on a big streak. They just got hot at the right time.

Because they are a better team, Big Ben did not get in the enzone for that TD. Seahawks are better the (ref) let Steelers win Seahawks had TD's called back the oods where against them  playing so close to Pittsburgh the game was giving to the Steelers and if these so called football fans think other wise they need to go wacth it on video. The Steelers knew the game was given to them thats why you dont see much or hear much about it. Pittsburgh has not had a good team since Terry Bradshaw, Jack Lambert , Mean Joe Green Franco Harris, Lynn Swyan, and so on. Theres next year and it will not be played in DETROIT

I disagree with the answer just because, its because the steelers have a stronger offense and defensive line, not only that but they got one hell of a coach that makes all the puzzle pieces work together perfectly no matter if they loose players or gain them

The flag is dispalyed such that the mast faces forward. So, the "mast" of the flag is toward the front of the player, so the stars are also toward the front; so on the right side the flag is "backward", but on the left, it's "normal".

They are replicas of the real helmets used in the NFL.  \n\nhttp://www.sidelinemvp.com/mini_helmets.html
