Chuck Allen

Chuck Allen recovers a fumble in the 1960 AFL Championship game against Houston.

George Blanda kicks a 27-yard field goal against the Steelers in 1970. It was this game he came off the bench and threw 3 touchdowns in addition to this field goal to help the Raiders win 31-14. Some big names in this picture - We see Jim Otto (#00) barring the way of Joe Greene (#75) and former Chargers standout Chuck Allen (#58) while Rookie Ken Stabler (#12) holds for Blanda.

No that's not the "other" #58 - that's former Charger All Star Chuck Allen as he returns an interception in 1971. After 9 seasons in San Diego Allen played 2 in Pittsburgh starting 24 games between 1970 and 1971. The other Steeler is veteran John Rowser who played 4 seasons (1970-73) in Pittsburgh.

With only guard Doug Van Horn between him and his target, Mean Joe Green zeros in on Giants runner Joe Morrison here in 1971. Greene would finish the year with his third straight Pro Bowl. Steelers linebacker Chuck Allen moves towards the play in the Background.
