Sometimes, a coach and identity just fit together perfectly.
So far, that appears to be the case with the Pittsburgh Steelers and new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.
Smith, who was fired by the Atlanta Falcons after three seasons as the head coach, brings a fiery, trash-talking, chippy demeanor to the Steelers. That fits perfectly for a team that wants to play with an edge, wants to punch teams in the mouth and wants to control the line of scrimmage, especially offensively.
With that chip created after being fired by the Falcons and then landing in a perfect situation in Pittsburgh, Good Morning Football co-host Kyle Brandt believes that a “pissed-off” Arthur Smith is going to have the Steelers being the hardest-running offense in the NFL, which will have them back in the playoffs again.
