[edit] Merge this into Steel Curtain

Well, besides the obvious stub issues, the Steelers defense is only called Blitzburgh while Dick LeBeau has some sort of involvement, while the defense has been called Steel Curtain, regardless of personel, since the 1970's. And Big Nasty D was for the in-between era while LeBeau was with Cincinnati. This page needs to be merged with Steel Curtain and either redirected there or redirect to zone blitz.

• Oppose. It cannot be merged with Steel Curtain because Dick LeBeau came twenty years after the famous Steel Curtain teams. A better idea would be to merge it with Pittsburg Steelers. --Brewcrewer 20:10, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

I agree with the opposition. The Blitzburgh defense was uniqe from the Steel Curtain in that it was a 3-4 Zone rather than a 4-3 Stunt. Also, different players and a different coach. It should stay merged with the Steelers and not into the Steel Curtain, because they aren't one in the same. User:lawrence142002
