Steelers fans, prepare for a jump scare because today we’re talking about he who should not be named: Matt Canada.

It’s no secret that the former Steelers offensive coordinator had a less-than-favorable run with the team. During his three years calling the offense, the team ranked 28th in points per game, total yards per game, and 30th in yards per play.

Mike Tomlin eventually relieved him of his duties on November 21st as the Steelers continued to sputter on offense.

The move was long overdue by many standards, and Tomlin’s propensity to wait had several, including Pittsburgh-Gazette’s Ray Fittipaldo, sure that he would be next out the door.
