It looked like Ben was in the twilight of his career under Bruce Arians... enter Todd Haley who revitalizes Ben and the Steelers offense. All of a sudden Ben looks better than he has his entire career. On top of that offensive line and th run game see huge improvements. Because of Haley they went from a defensive dominate team to an offedive juggernaut.
Haley also already knows the AFC North because he's game planned against the Ravens, Browns, and Bengals for quite a few years....while also seeing the Steelers defense all week.
As for the Offensive Coordinator I'd like to see them match Haley with Russ Grimm an old school offensive line coach.
I like Haley as a coach...but it seems he has a very abrasive personality and does things to rub people the wrong way. Here are some examples. I don't see him co-existing with Bengals management:

They also allegedly backed out of a $1 million house deal and trashed the home:

They also sued McDonalds for finding a rat in the salad:

He thought the Chiefs were bugging the phones when he was there:

'Known for his abrasive nature and fiery temper, I’m sure Haley did his best to insult more than enough people he crossed paths with.'
Here he is refusing to shake Josh McDaniels hand after a game:
