Been a Steelers fan for about 20 years, so I’ve seen the super bowl wins and loss, the transition from Cowher to Tomlin, and an endless string of complaints (from myself included) aimed at the Steelers many OC’s during that span not named Ken Whisenhunt. As disastrous as the offense has been at times the last handful of years, I feel like it kind of gets lost in the shuffle how middle of the road the offense was in 2008 when they last won it all.

Yes they had multiple future Hall of Famers on that offense, but when you look at the numbers, they finished 22nd in overall offense, didn’t have a 1000 yard rusher and Ben threw 17 TDs to 15 INTs that year. They did score over 30 points several times that year, but for the most part they were carried by a legendary defense and were in some low scoring scraps that season.

My question is, aside from a super bowl win or a deep playoff run, what would it take for Steeler Nation to finally say "okay we’re in a good spot offensively’?
