Steelers face uncertainty as Russell Wilson and Arthur Smith clash over offensive strategies
The Pittsburgh Steelers faced a disappointing end to their 2024 season, finishing with a first-round playoff exit after a strong start. The coaching staff, particularly Offensive Coordinator Arthur Smith, is under scrutiny for the team's late-season struggles. Reports indicate a conflict between Smith and quarterback Russell Wilson regarding offensive strategies. Smith preferred a run-first approach, while Wilson favored a more aggressive passing game, leading to a breakdown in their relationship. Wilson's contract is set to expire, and he may enter free agency unless a new deal is reached. The future of both Wilson and Smith remains uncertain as the team looks to address their differences.
