The Facts:
The Steelers have fired offensive line coach Larry Zierlein and told Bruce Arians he will be retained as the team's offensive coordinator.
Reported by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Arians, who has a year remaining on his contract, had a long meeting today with HC Mike Tomlin and was told he will return in that position in 2010. Reports earlier this week suggested Arians was going to get the axe. Didn't work out that way. From a Fantasy perspective, it is worth noting the Steelers offense produced a 4,000-yard quarterback, two 1,000-yard receivers and a 1,000-yard running back in 2009 for the first time in franchise history under Arians last season. ... Zierlein was dismissed after Ben Roethlisberger was sacked a personal-high 50 times this season.
