‘Reasonable To Expect’ Arthur Smith, Offense To Take ‘Significant Step Forward,’ Mike Tomlin Says

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense had some highs in 2024, the first season with Arthur Smith running the show as the team’s offensive coordinator. But ultimately, the offense is going to be remembered more for its collapse down the stretch and failure to score more than 17 points in the Steelers’ final five games. Heading into Year 2, head coach Mike Tomlin said he thinks the offense will be a lot better given Smith’s familiarity with the Steelers.

“Certainly, when I talk about rookies for example, it’s reasonable to expect significant growth between Year 1 and Year 2. But I can apply that analogy to any and all of us,” Tomlin told Max Starks in an interview for Steelers.
