If Steelers OC Arthur Smith can’t run his offense this season, it will be hard to point the finger elsewhere. Ostensibly, the Steelers have provided him everything he wants, within reason, that they could. A hand-picked running back, a big-bodied wide receiver, a rebuilt offensive line, and an arsenal of tight ends: that’s an Arthur Smith offense.
The big variable is, of course, the quarterback position. But Arthur Smith made things work with Ryan Tannehill, so he should manage a 42-year-old Aaron Rodgers. It is now up to him to facilitate the run game with Jaylen Warren and rookie Kaleb Johnson.
