Bryant McFadden Thrilled Steelers Hired Arthur Smith, Excited Canada Era In The Past

When the Pittsburgh Steelers hired Arthur Smith to be their new offensive coordinator earlier this week, it was met with mixed reviews. Some hated the move, given Smith’s underwhelming time in Atlanta as head coach of the Falcons. Others, like former Steeler and current CBS Sports analyst Bryant McFadden, love it, citing how effective Smith’s offense was when he was offensive coordinator with the Tennessee Titans.

Recently, McFadden joined the Dukes & Bell podcast, an Atlanta-based sports talk show, and explained why he is thrilled with the hiring of Smith.

“Our offensive coordinator was, I don’t wanna say bad, but it just didn’t look good, yo,” said McFadden of former Steelers offensive coordinator Matt Canada.
