Back to the Pittsburgh Steelers Newsfeed

Randy Fichtner is the Steelers' new lightning rod. He's OK with it.

He has not called a play for the Steelers yet, but Randy Fichtner already received enough suggestions to fill out a game plan.

“I’ve had more from family members, everything they want to see,’’ said Fichtner, promoted from quarterbacks coach to offensive coordinator in January.

“I don’t know anything about Instagram and things like that, but occasionally Nate, my son, will show me some things that all of a sudden my niece sent from Ohio about a specific play that was on PlayStation or something that ‘Why don’t we do it?’ That happens.”

Oh, Fichtner will learn about Instagram and Twitter and Snapchat soon enough this fall.
