Jack played the game the way it was supossed to be played, no nonsense, hard hitting, intense, and by the rules. He didn't take any shit from anyone, and was respected for his style of play whether the opposing teams played liked him or not. Count Dracula in cleats, Jack is the Man, one of the greatest linebackers to ever play the game, Here We Go Steelers!!
If you ever want to teach someone the proper way to tackle someone, just watch highlights of this legend, I seriously can say I never saw a WR, QB or RB break free after being hit by Lambert, he was so much more than a bad ass MLB, he was technically one of the very best to ever play his position
Cityofchamps66 - I once saw a Dolphins cornerback execute a perfect tackle on a Jets wide receiver- so clean and hard Dan Dierdorf said every high school coach should show their players how this is done properly. So I agree with you, and add that good coaches like Noll and Shula taught these guys the right way to tackle.
+James Tressler I remember on 60 minutes he said he thinks QBs should wear dresses,this was like 79-80 when they started all that in the grasp pussy sh*t. Back when you could hit a receiver as much as you wanted off the line no freakin 10 or 5 yard rule. Jack was my idol man he was tuff, mean, hard everything a linebacker should be. Every football player should be that at some time or another...
this is one of the BEST videos about jack thats out there. towards the end when he's talking to the kids in the football camp and you see him in tee-shirt and shorts that picture of him should put to rest any BULLSHIT stories of him being on steroids. to think that guy standing there telling these kids you gotta have passion , was the guy under the pads numbered 58. again i commend you GodPirate, great video!!
Jack Lambert = Most badass linebacker. EVER. Next to Terry Bradshaw (my favorite QB ever), Jack is my favorite hero in football. Of course I'm from the new generation of Steeler Nation, but Jack Lambert is my hero of the past, while Troy Polamalu is my favorite player today.
I'm a diehard Steelers fan but I have a lot of respect for the Packers, one of a very few teams I have respect for, I admit it hurt losing to you guys' in the Super Bowl but I would rather lost to a team I have respect for
Lambert was definitely not a cheapshot artist. The rules were very, very different in those days. Lambert had a reputation as a great player, an intimidating character, intense, etc. but he was never really considered cheap or dirty by the standards of the day. A lot of routine things back then would be illegal now and highlight reels make even the cleanest player form the 1970s and 1980s seem "cheap", but it's just not accurate in the context of the times to label Lambert that way.
I just to watch the Steelers on the 70's and I hated them!!! But I must accept that they are the best team ever!!! They will kick ass of any other NFL dynasty ( 49ers, Cowboys, Pats) at any time!!! And Lambert is the best middle linebacker.
Why does everyone get onto Jack Tatum? This guy hit like him as well and I loved every hit. People have called them both "Dirty players" when this all legal back then. This era of football was great, unlike now.
derail14 Atkinson was more of a cheap shot artist than Tatum...Tatum's quote in the 70's was " If you come into my area or George's (Atkinson) area to attempt to or catch the ball, you're gonna get hit and hit HARD"
Anyone who calls Jack Lambert a cheap shot artist must be very young. Football was a much more violent game in the seventies...a different brand of football was played back then.
John Madden resentfully said, all this talk about the steel curtain this, the steel curtain that, all it was was two guys in the middle, Greene and Lambert, and it was just very hard to get them both blocked
Lambert really was more of a technician. He was never really a 'big hitter' in the sense of Mike Singletary. He just got to the correct position quickly and performed his responsibilities perfectly.
To think that EIGHT time Pro-Bowl linebacker Andy Russell was the third best LB on the '70s Steelers is absolutely insane. He made EIGHT Pro-Bowls and was an All-Pro in '75...and wasn't as good as Lambert and Ham!
Unfortunately, hell no they dont! This guy is the epitome of what football SHOULD BE. Football was a mans sport, not the pussy shit that it is now. I was born in '92..i can't believe i missed the good years!
It's now Sept. 30th 2013 and my Steelers are 0-4 after a loss yesterday to Minnesota. I miss the hard hitting, no free agency Chuck Knoll days of football when the game was pure and guys you drafted stayed with the team. Todays NFL is a poor watered down, stictly business, huge money version of the old game Lambert played in..
i read that on steelers4life site...very cool...credos to the mrs. for doing it. check out Violator79. probably one of the best for showing who jack was even after football..........
i'd type more but i'm laughing so fucking hard my eyes are watering.........you go to bed tonight 'realdeal' and keep dreaming about shockey...........................
Gimme an hr and a six pack, well play them again(raiders), that will cool ur ass off, if I had it to do all over again, I'd be a professional football player and ur damn right I'd be a PITTSBURGH STEELER!
hey d3h0ff exactly what facts ??!!! go on my site look at my favorites list, pick anyone out you like. now tell me WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??!!! 16 years old!!!!!!!
@@67marlins81 Not an asshole Browns fan Skippy. Not only was he a cheapshot artist, Lambert was nothing compared to a this great player, Jack Youngblood, who would have kicked his ass from LA to Pittsburgh and back without breaking a sweat. The end.
pretty good??!!! every team in the league hated jack cause of the way he played.............and they all wished that he played on their team!!!!................
this was my dude here!!! jack lambert was da man in his day!

Man, the NFL needs more guys like this
Jack Lambert was the best linebacker period!!!!
"If you don't want to get excited out here when you play, you might as well go play tennis or something." A concise resume of Jack Lambert.

I'm a Packers fan through and through, but I have THE upmost respect for the Steel Curtain and especially to Jack Lambert.
"that'll cool your ass off " JACK THE BEST EVER
I have always had Lambert in my top 5 all time.
He played the game better than any in any era.
As a Cowboys' fan who grew up watching Roger, Drew and Co. I always thought it was unfair that Lambert and Ham were in the same LB team.
Jack Lambert = Most badass linebacker. EVER.
Next to Terry Bradshaw (my favorite QB ever), Jack is my favorite hero in football. Of course I'm from the new generation of Steeler Nation, but Jack Lambert is my hero of the past, while Troy Polamalu is my favorite player today.
One thing on my bucket list is to be able to meet him
I am a Cheesehead however...I LOVE THIS GUY!!!!!!!!!!! Lombardi would LOVE HIM TOO!!

☝️Now that's a compliment!
Dude is a beast!!!
best linebacker to ever play the game
LT has him beat by a mile
Jack Lambert was from Mantua, OH and played ball at Kent State.
Great player, thanks for posting.
Steelers # 58! The original bad- ass beast! Absolutely scared other teams to death! He was the best!
Bendito el día en que la directiva contrato a éstos tipos . I love forever Steelers!!
Jack,simply put,Badass,nuthin else 2 say!!!!!!! #PS4L!
I just to watch the Steelers on the 70's and I hated them!!!
But I must accept that they are the best team ever!!! They will kick ass of any other NFL dynasty ( 49ers, Cowboys, Pats) at any time!!!
And Lambert is the best middle linebacker.
Jack and' jim Youngblood was not went play. On same defesnives
Number 58 comes to play! What a beast!

+Leeroy Jenkins tatum was a cheap shot artist,like george atkinson,ask dareyll stingley
Can't ask him. He's dead, Jim.

greatest steeler of all time
GO STEELERS
GO PENS

Madden was a flake and a fluke!
He Was Few Teeth Short Of Ruthless Aggression. LOL

BEST D-Man EVER!!!
I agree with Jack Lambert all quarterbacks should wear dresses
Especially Gaydy... Err Brady
i've got a lot of respect for this guy, never played football, but i wish i did after watching JL highlights. i mean, he ate that dude at 1:24
i love this guy he goes out on the field and gets the job done he is inspirational for any sport exept tennis tennis is gay
“I never tried to go out and hurt somebody”….I just did
To think that EIGHT time Pro-Bowl linebacker Andy Russell was the third best LB on the '70s Steelers is absolutely insane. He made EIGHT Pro-Bowls and was an All-Pro in '75...and wasn't as good as Lambert and Ham!
WobblinGoblin1 The problem with that is Andy Russell is NOT in the Hall of Fame
scary he only played at 205lbs....he hit with energy from his ankles
Bad ass
Agree with Williams comment.
Quhawks you say Lambert was not a big hitter tell that to Preston Pearson!!!!!
Hes Pretty Good
That don't make em like Lambert anymore.
Unfortunately, hell no they dont! This guy is the epitome of what football SHOULD BE. Football was a mans sport, not the pussy shit that it is now. I was born in '92..i can't believe i missed the good years!
