After securing two Super Bowl titles with different head coaches, legendary Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger has a keen eye for quality coaching.
On the latest episode of his podcast, Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger, the former Steelers quarterback declared that Pittsburgh’s MVP this season is none other than Special Teams Coach Danny Smith.
Smith’s squad has showcased elite special teams play, featuring everything from blocked field goals to impressive punt returns.
During Week 7’s Sunday Night Football, Smith was visibly frustrated by a questionable call that nullified a stellar effort by FS Minkah Fitzpatrick.
However, his mood quickly turned to celebration later that night when the team successfully blocked a field goal in their win over the New York Jets.
Roethlisberger’s praise highlights the impact of Smith’s coaching, but the spectacle created by his special teams unit speaks for itself to Steelers fans this season.
