Arthur Smith, the former head coach of the Falcons, will speak with the Steelers on OC

The Pittsburgh Steelers are actively searching for a new offensive coordinator following the departure of Matt Canada in the middle of the season. While there are numerous options available, the team seems inclined towards someone with prior play-calling experience. Consequently, they have officially invited Arthur Smith, the former head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, to interview for the position. Smith is highly regarded across the league for his adeptness at calling plays.

During Smith’s tenure with the Falcons, the team’s offense showed promise, although there were criticisms about his handling of certain key players and his reliance on quarterbacks Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke. Prior to his stint with the Falcons, Smith had a successful run as the offensive coordinator for the Tennessee Titans, where the team boasted a top-tier offense.

The Steelers’ offensive lineup includes notable talents like Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren, George Pickens, Pat Freiermuth, and Diontae Johnson, providing ample potential for the incoming coordinator. While the quarterback situation is currently uncertain, the team may explore options in free agency to address this. Overall, the next offensive coordinator will inherit a talented roster with which to work for the upcoming season.
