Pittsburgh Steelers All-Time Team (50th Season)

The Pittsburgh Steelers All-Time Team (50th Season) was named as a part of the franchise's 50th season celebration in 1982. The top 24 players in the club's history were selected: eleven on offense, eleven on defense, one punter and one placekicker.

The team was chosen on the basis of more than 100,000 fan ballots.
