They won't now. Art would trade Ben first before he would admit he was wrong.
Even the Noll Era relics know that Art II is ****ing this team up.

If Arians would have been more creative in the red zone, then it would have been really hard for Art Rooney II to have him ousted. If Haley leaves, then I think the next coordinator has to find a way to take the best of both offenses - using Arians' offense between the 20's, and using Haley's offense in the red zone with a big emphasis on Heath Miller.
There was nothing wrong with the offense in 2009.
But Art ruined it rather than blame LeBeau like he should have.
And it's been nothing but erratic since.
There is truth to that.
Everybody brings up the Thursday Night Cleveland game in 2009, when Arians may have called the worst game of his career. But when you look over that entire season, the offense was putting up enough points, and the defense blew it in the 4th quarter. That seems to have been around the time Art II started getting too involved with football operations.
Yeah everyone blames the Browns game.
Giving away 21 fourth quarter points to one of the NFL's ALL TIME worst offenses somehow gets ignored.
"If I could start my life all over again, I would be a professional football player, and you damn well better believe I would be a Pittsburgh Steeler." -Jack Lambert
No one is saying it's okay that Arians called so many bad bubble screens - it's just that we don't expect the next OC to run the same stupid plays.
As for the running game, it actually averaged better yardage under Arians with 4.4 yards/carry. Much of the issues with the running game this season were about predictability. The Steelers would too often stubbornly run up the middle on first and second downs, putting Ben in a 3rd and long situation. They essentially shut down their own running game. The reason teams like the Patriots and Broncos are better is because they aren't as predictable and they run the ball out of no-huddle against tired defenses.
Of course, the big reason the Patriots and Broncos run the ball better is because they let their QBs win the game early and run the ball to finish off the game.
Like we used to. Then the offense became the scapegoat for LeBeau.Of course, the big reason the Patriots and Broncos run the ball better is because they let their QBs win the game early and run the ball to finish off the game.
The pastry chef... Ran out of the pocket then turned back and ran into the pocket then got killed by two KC defenders and almost popped an aorta... we go 2-5 after... The pastry chef never throws the ball Out of Bounds to save his life. The Pastry chef ruined two years of Steeler domination because he is stubborn and wont listen.... His cookies are getting crushed....
And the MINUTE Ben throws the ball away from the pocket on 3rd and 4?
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Why won't he scramble?
Why is he playing scared?
Married life has changed him!
Put Charlie in!
Ben got hurt because the ONE READ OPTION, Miller (who started the play in the ^&*( backfield), was covered. His check down, #33, was blocking.
That play-call sucked.
Just like it sucked in Tennessee prior to Suisham's miss.
You had Heath Miller trying to run 8 yards, to gain 4.
And people wonder why it didn't work?
That play hasn't worked for YEARS. And for some reason when the golf coach calls it no one complains.
Yeah "domination". 5-3 before that game ended because our defense gave up three 4th quarter leads in 3 losses.
