I don't think the Steelers and Raiders were necessarily the ones who invented physical secondary play. Go youtube Dick Lane and see what you find.

I remember Night Train Lane. He would have been a star in any era.

i don't think they invented physical play. in Tatum's time as a raider, passing games were becoming more sophisticated. as units the Steelers and Raiders were able to clamp down on passing attacks.
