Last season the Pittsburgh Steelers had a historically bad offense. This franchise has seen some bad groups but this one stood out in all the worst ways. You really have to go back to 1998 to find a Steelers offense this ineffective. A huge part of the problem with the 1998 offense was the departure of then-offensive coordinator Chan Gailey.
This season a big chunk of the blame for why this team failed to have a running back rush for 500 yards, failed to score 30 points in any single game or generate one 300-yard passing performance falls on offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner.
Fichtner failed week after week to adapt to injuries and while we can’t discount the injury factor, Fichtner’s lack of creativity and flexibility showed in a huge way. This was especially true with the run game.
Many fans have spent the better part of two months calling for Fichtner to be fired but now that the dust has settled on the season we want to ask you, Steeler Nation, what do the Steelers do with Fichtner?
