Ken Anderson is in his third season as the quarterbacks coach for the Steelers after being hired on Jan. 29, 2007.
 One of the top quarterbacks in NFL history, Anderson is in his 33nd NFL season, including 17h as a coach. In his first season with the Steelers, Anderson helped quarterback Ben Roethlisberger have one of his most productive seasons, finishing with of team records of 32 TD passes and a QB rating of 104.1. With his 2007 production, Roethlisberger was elected to the first Pro Bowl of his career.
 Prior to joining the Pittsburgh Steelers, he was with the Jacksonville Jaguars for four years (2003-06).Anderson served as both the quarterbacks coach (2003, ’05-’06) and wide receivers coach (2004) during his stay with the Jaguars, including the past two as quarterbacks coach.
 Anderson, 60, played for the Cincinnati Bengals for 16 seasons and was an assistant coach there for 10 years. He joined the team’s staff in 1993 and was the quarterbacks coach for three seasons, offensive coordinator from 1996 to 2000, and then quarterbacks coach in 2001-02.

Nearly two decades since retiring as a player, Anderson still continues to dominate the Bengals’ record book with his career passing marks. He holds the club’s all-time marks in completions (2,654), passing yards (32,838) and touchdown passes (197). He also rushed for 2,220 yards and 20 touchdowns. Twice he has been among the 15 finalists for election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Anderson still holds the NFL record for highest completion percentage in a season: 70.55 in 1982. He won four NFL passing titles, which is tied for third-most in NFL history behind Sammy Baugh and Steve Young, and was named four times to the Pro Bowl. Anderson led the league three times in lowest interception percentage, which is tied for second most all-time behind Baugh. Anderson played in 192 games and led the Bengals to an appearance in Super Bowl XVI against the San Francisco 49ers.

When Anderson joined the pro coaching ranks as Bengals quarterbacks coach in 1993, he helped quarterback Jeff Blake chip away at a few of his own Cincinnati marks. In 1995, Blake supplanted Anderson in the categories of most completions in a season (326) and most consecutive games with a TD pass (21). He guided Jon Kitna to a single-season record for pass attempts (581 in 2001) and more than 3,000 yards passing in back-to-back seasons.

Until joining the Jaguars, Anderson had played and coached for only the Bengals since completing a record-setting college career at Augustana (Ill.) in 1970. He was a third-round pick from the small school, the 67th selection in the draft. His 16 years of service as a player (1971-86) are the most in Bengals history.

Prior to joining the Bengals as a coach, Anderson worked six years in Cincinnati as a sportscaster. Born Feb. 15, 1949, in Batavia, Ill., he and his wife Cristy live in Pittsburgh. Anderson has three children, son Matt (34) and daughters Megan (30) and Molly (25).
