3 moves that will take the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Super Bowl in 2023

The Pittsburgh Steelers finished the 2022 season strong, and they could have legitimate Super Bowl aspirations if they do only these three things for 2023.

Many Steelers fans were hoping that big personnel changes were forthcoming this year in an effort to get this team back on top. However, it doesn’t seem like there will be any significant coaching changes in 2023. Because of this, a large portion is starting to lose hope in the organization.

The good news is that it’s not all doom and gloom in the Steel City. Pittsburgh has a new general manager at the helm in Omar Khan and assistant GM Andy Weidl did wonders for the Philadelphia Eagles before coming to town.

However, the Steelers cannot simply ‘run it back’ and expect better results. Even if they aren’t firing members of their coaching staff this offseason, there are three moves they can make that would have the potential to take them to the Super Bowl in 2023.

3. Steelers must hire a passing game coordinator

We’ve seen two years of Matt Canada as the Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator now. He can’t do this on his own. Though I would have strongly preferred the Steelers to fire their OC and get a more innovative mind, there is something that Mike Tomlin can do to help Canada in his third season: hire a passing game coordinator.

A passing game coordinator knows the strengths and weaknesses of his receivers and tries to utilize his options in a way that is best for the team. He would meet with Matt Canada and offer suggestions — maybe even interject some new passing concepts into the offense.

Not every NFL team has a passing game coordinator, but some have found success with them. Obviously, Matt Canada would still call the plays on offense, but a potential new assistant could help him get a little more innovative on offense.
