Most OC's are great if they have a great QB, not so much with the Derek Andersons of the world or matt cassells of the world.
One only has to look at the NY Giants, Gilbride couldn't get it done here with "Slash" at QB but he appears to be pretty succesful with Eli.
Here's to hoping the Steelers make the right choice.

Seems like there is negatives with most of the names mentioned. Maybe the Steelers really should push for Clements in Green Bay by offering him more, and here he would call his own plays unlike in Green Bay where McCarthy calls them. What to do? It is probably going to be Fichter anyway. He ran a spread offense in college and running from the spread (Mendenhall did in college) could be very productive and keep defenses guessing. When it's time for power football bring on the fullback and go traditional and you can still surprise defenses by passing from that formation as well.
