Or more accurately, Dick LeBeau?  The guy invented the zone blitz scheme that still acts as the cornerstone of Pittsburgh's defensive scheme.  His success in implementing it in Pittsburgh in the 90s didn't translate well when he came back here and eventually took over as head coach.  You need the players to execute it as well.  Good article on how the Steelers are still a zone blitz defense at heart: https://steelersdepot.com/2019/05/pff-shows-steelers-still-predominant-zone-blitz-team-in-nfl/
