The 2020 Pittsburgh Steelers offense was confusing. It was dynamic at times, and painfully predictable at other junctures. Nonetheless, throughout the season there were moments when we wondered who was running the show.
Was it offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner?
Was it Ben Roethlisberger?
Throughout the season, there was a constant dispute about who was actually calling plays from time to time. You had receives talking about Roethlisberger drawing up plays in the proverbial dirt, only to have Fichtner dispute those claims when he met with the media the following week.
You would have times when Roethlisberger would talk openly about getting his receivers in position and running an offense off the cuff, only to have Fichtner suggest he was telling Roethlisbeger what to do via the coach-to-quarterback helmet system.
