Chuck was amongst the greatest ever at recognizing and developing talent. All four Steel Curtain members were from the state of Texas, getting them right from under the Cowboys noses. Mel Blount was from Louisiana as was Bradshaw and that area was not scouted well by Dallas either. Chuck took what they could and should have gotten and beat them with them.
The only time I ever saw Chuck get out maneuvered as a coach, and it was not at all his fault was in Super Bowl 3. Joe Namath had one of the greatest games a quarterback ever had against what was the NFL's most dominant unit until that time.
