As a Pittsburgh kid born in 1973, his passing hurts me deeply...damn, I probably wouldn't be doing what I do for a living without Coach Noll

Got to cover one of Chuck Noll's final games, vs. DAL on Thanksgiving '91. Made sure to ask a question because I knew I was seeing a legend.

Sitting at the same table as Chuck Noll in the #steelers training camp cafeteria was just about the biggest thrill of my 14 yr old life #RIP

Hard as it is to believe, Chuck Noll was underrated by so many, despite the fact that he remains the only head coach to win 4 Super Bowls.
