Steelers’ Red Zone Offense Better In 2020 – But Still Not Quite Good Enough

It was a no-brainer predicting the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense would improve with Ben Roethlisberger returning in 2020. And it did in obvious ways. The Steelers had something resembling an offense, though over the last quarter of the season, sometimes it felt like they didn’t.

One key metric we talked plenty about after the 2019 season and leading into 2020 was the Steelers’ red zone offense. One of the best things Randy Fichtner did in his time as offensive coordinator was help turn Pittsburgh into the #1 ranked red zone offense in 2018. Not only were they best in the league that year, they were the best red zone offense in about 15 seasons.
