It’s the life of an offensive coordinator. If a play works, you’re a genius. If it fails, you’re wearing the ‘dunce’ cap. After QB Kenny Pickett’s third and one option late in Monday’s win over the Cleveland Browns, we all know which bucket Matt Canada fell in.
On the play that led to Acrisure Stadium loudly chanting for Canada to be fired, the Steelers tried to fool the Browns by having Pickett keep the ball. But Cleveland figured it out and swarmed him for a loss, forcing a punt and giving the Browns a chance to go win the game.
