Front 7 against front 7, Steelers vs 85-86 Bears. Whoo, that's a close one. Singletary was Ray Lewis without the off-the-field baggage. But, yeah, I'd give the Steel Curtain the edge on their defensive backs. The problem the Bears' opponents QBs had was not having the time to exploit the secondary.

Funny thing, a guy like Lambert coming out of college today wouldn't even get a second look. 6'1", 215 lbs when he stuffed himself the night before--some people claim that the Steelers official roster added 10 lbs to him, that he actually weighed closer to 205. Just goes to show, for all the tests they give prospects at the annual combines, heart isn't one of the things they can predict.
