I’ve been asking around and a couple of people have said to me that if there’s another mediocre performance on Sunday, they think Canada is done. 
It’s just conjecture and we are dealing with a new front office here that’s tougher to get a read on, but these are people who would know and it’s out of the ordinary that they would go there and say something to me about it if they didn’t think there was a distinct possibility that it could actually happen.
We’ll see……..

Like it or not, I believe there is 0% chance they fire Canada or strip him of playcalling duties in-season. Just not the way the Steelers operate. Now, at the end of the season, I believe the door will swing closed so fast that it will indeed hit him in the butt on the way out.

 

That gets me thinking ahead a bit to the team’s next OC. I just REALLY cross my fingers they find “the guy” as it will infuriate the fanbase even more if we end up with a revolving door of OCs and wasting the talent (and significant draft resource) the team has in KP8.

The Steelers D played 3 solid quarters Sunday following a solid game vs. Tampa. The dropped INTs kill me, especially Edmunds and Sutton but they did their job and the O did not. 

That said one of those INT's prevents a Tampa FG and may change the Steelers game plan and maybe Kenny doesn't throw one of his picks. 

 

The offense has struggled under Mitch and Kenny. Both have moved between the 20's at times but the red zone and overall execution is not good to say the least. 

DJ does not look like the guy who rightfully earned a raise. Claypool had one good quarter. Najee is getting better but not looking like the guy who was named Captain

and expected to be a key to this offense. Muth is holding steady and underutilized as Steelers TE's often are. Pickens is the real deal, but also under utilized. 

 

2 key stats I heard. 

 

  • The Steelers are the only offense NOT to score 20 points in a game
  • Pickens is now the leading WR after 7 weeks with less targets and catches than Chase or DJ
  • The OC is a major issue. The team is doing the same predictable "trick" plays over and over again. We don't go deep and we don't use the middle of the field. 

     

    Kenny forced some passes, and may have been gun shy but the issues of playing in our fears has been season long and that comes back to the OC. 

    After the spanking I fully expect in Philly I pray Canada is gone. 

     

    Kenny is a rookie making rookie mistakes. This team COULD have won against the Jets, Miami, Cle and Pats but did not. We also should have lost to Cincy. 

    We are OFFICIALLY in a rebuild and I am happy. playing for 500 every year is stupid. Let Kenny and the youngins grow and build for the future. 

    I realize we are wasting Cam and such but we are not going on a deep run with this team right now. There are lots of positives and we need to suffer through

    the negatives to get to where we want to be. 

     

    Weekly improvement is the key and the second half schedule is much easier than the first. 

     

    I genuinely think by Week 17 this offense is borderline scary to opponents.
