Matt Canada Hire Tops List Of ‘Mike Tomlin Transgressions’, Fittipaldo Says, Kenny Pickett Not Far Behind

The Matt Canada era of the Pittsburgh Steelers for Mike Tomlin will not benefit from the passage of time. While they won a reasonable number of games, the offense was simply so unproductive under their former offensive coordinator. The fact that they had so many game-winning drives in low-scoring games is telling: they scored outside of the scheme.

Tomlin hired Canada to take over as quarterbacks coach in 2020. He served in that capacity for one year before taking over as offensive coordinator. After presiding over Ben Roethlisberger’s final season, he ushered in the Kenny Pickett era prior to his dismissal in the middle of the 2023 season.
