The Pittsburgh Steelers offense has struggled to get going early during each of the last two games, and Pittsburgh now has suffered back-to-back losses after falling 20-17 to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night. Pittsburgh’s slow start included some conservative play-calling, particularly on the team’s opening drive. ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith is putting some blame on offensive coordinator Arthur Smith for the team’s struggles on offense.
“Arthur Smith needs to do a better job. Arthur Smith needs to do a better job calling plays. We made so much noise about this man coming over as the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons now that he just got the offense to focus on, the Steelers offense was supposed to be much better,” Smith said on First Take Monday morning.
