Do you remember where you were on November 21 when the news broke? That’s the day the Steelers announced they had fired offensive coordinator Matt Canada. It was a day of celebration for many Steeler fans similar to the munchkins singing “Ding-Dong! The Witch Is Dead” in The Wizard of Oz. Finally, the Steelers could move on from a historically inept offense, and by making the move before the end of the season they would have the jump on the other teams in need of a new OC.
Fast forward to mid-January when the Steeler participation in the playoffs ended and those same fans were frustrated that the team hadn’t hired anyone yet.
