The good news. The Pittsburgh Steelers are going outside the organization to hire their next offensive coordinator. It’s only the second offensive coordinator-related news universally celebrated by fans over the last three years (the other, firing Matt Canada).
The search is exciting. The chance to bring in a fresh mind, someone with new ideas, a new scheme, a chance to galvanize this dormant offense.
But this hire comes with pressures. Tons of it. Mike Tomlin, making up one-third of the decision-making alongside GM Omar Khan and Team President Art Rooney II, is about to make the most important hire of his Steelers’ tenure.
