Jack Lambert MLB

Team: Pittsburgh Steelers

Years active: 1974-1984

Accolades: Hall of Fame, 9x Pro Bowl, 6x All-Pro, 4x Super Bowl champion, 2x Defensive Player of the Year

Lambert led Pittsburgh’s "Steel Curtain" during the height of the franchise’s glory years in the 1970s. He was the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year in 1974, and made nine Pro Bowls while emerging as one of the toughest players during one of the league’s toughest eras. He got the call from Canton in 1990.

Lambert prided himself on his ability to hit hard and intimidate the opposition. He was the Steelers starting middle linebacker for eleven seasons and, according to Steelers media guides, averaged 146 tackles per season through his 10th year. He recorded only 19 in his 11th and final season because of an injury.

Lambert amassed 28 career interceptions, 1,479 career tackles (1,045 solo), and (officially) 231⁄2 sacks.[5]

Career highlights and awards

Most of my defense is based on rushing the passer. I need a big NT to plug up the run and make life difficult inside. This gives me more flexibility in my fronts as well.
