What Randy Fichtner did to improve the Pittsburgh Steelers red zone offense was the best thing he did taking over the offensive coordinator gig last season.
If only that success carried over into 2019.
Through five weeks, the offense ranks a lowly 29th in red zone offense. They’re finding the end zone just 41.2% of the time, a stark contrast to what happened last year. In 2018, they were the league’s best at over 73%. Not only was that #1 in football, it was the highest rate by any team since the 2003 Kansas City Chiefs.
