By Justin McGonigle www.SteelerNation.com The Steelers will not be bringing back offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner for the 2021 season according to reports. Fichtner’s contract is set to expire at the beginning of the new league year. The #Steelers are parting ways with OC Randy Fichtner, source said. His contract won't be renewed. — Tom Pelissero […]

If only this said Mike Tomlin too. Someone going to teach the coach not to let LBs stick other teams top WRs?
 
Good news in my opinion.

I know the money isn't there but obviously we need to revamp the OL and get back to physical, punch them in the mouth Steeler football.
 
YES!!!

Promote Matt Canada. Dude builds offenses to match offensive talent.
 
If Canada becomes OC.... and its early to speculate... does that increase the odds of us retaining Conner?

Only if it also increases the odds of us bringing in someone through the draft or FA to actually compete with Conner for the position (I hope).
 
But I'm going to miss all the 2yd passes!

Said nobody ever in the history of the known universe.
 
It's always good to be the bearer of good news.......Thank you Justin for the good news.

Fichtner needed to go, pretty plain and simple. I'm think OL coach as well.


If Canada is promoted then I hope SBWCMVLT keeps his hands off for the most part. I also hope a new OC is named VERY soon.


Salute the nation

Bruce Gradkowski seems to be advocating for Jim Caldwell.

They need to hire someone that has decades of Madden experience.
 
Hire Adam Gase right now on the spot! You crazy? Best offensive coordinator in footballl! He’s coached old qbs, young qbs, beat us with Tim Tebow for *** sake. His offense can run the ball too he had a no name running back put up 200 yards on us! 200! Send tomlin to beg him to sign! Have him sign Ron milus for the secondary coach while he’s at it! Go Steelers!!!
 
The key point here is that Tomlin didn't even fire him. They just politely thanked Randy for his time and said they won't be renewing his contract.

I feel as though Mike may have blinked... again.

That's how they've been "firing" coaches since MT has been here.

Mandate from on high: "Let the contract expire rather than fire him. Saves money."

No to Caldwell! (as if my vote counts) We had to suffer with him for 7 years as HC of Wake Forest. His record was 26-63. That dismal performance somehow got him a coaching job with the Colts. He is dismal.
