Confirmed – Matt Canada WILL Return for 2022

[Steeler Nation]

Well it’s news that most of SteelerNation does not want to hear… But President Art Rooney II has confirmed that the team will keep Matt Canada on as offensive coordinator for 2022.

Art Rooney spoke of the challenges Matt Canada faced as Steelers offensive coordinator this season. Saying the team had a lot of young players on offense. But he said Canada will get a chance to fix things in the offseason. He'll be back.

Rooney also made it sound as though Matt Canada will return as offensive coordinator. When asked about the offense's deficiencies this season, he said, "That’s something Matt will want to address this offseason."

I would imagine that Canada will have to show a lot of improvement or the team will be on the look for a new offensive coordinator in 2023 if he doesn’t.

And I just responded.

That's the kind of immediate, life-affirming reaction you NEED to keep this place going.

[steelhurt]

Not surprised! They planned to give him a shot with a mobile QB in 2022. Whomever that is!

 

[oicu8ad]

4-13. 5-12 at best.

I’m moving away from this subject, the boss has spoken, he has the last word, but my last word on this, for what it’s worth: time for art jr to get on with his life’s work cuz he ain’t getting it done! got to be another Rooney’s that’s more capable. Just seeing art 2 with his cronies all around him, a bunch of old “writers” on deck, to lob soft ball pitches up for him is just classic Pittsburgh! We’ll be here 5 fukn years from now Debating all the same ****! I mean here we are again, are we better now than we were 5 years ago? Face it, until Art 2 and Tomlin are both gone, we will never win or even contend for another Super Bowl. But Strike up the band boys and play the “Steelers Polka” coach Tomlin and art 2 are leading the parade! Canada and whatever other fool they talk into believing their BS, waving Pom poms! “Here we go Steelers!“ here we go! Marching right off into the abyss of losing! Wooohooo….

Will be more than 10 percent that turns off if it is the same as this year

 

[Buster]

If I win the MegaMillions tonight, I will make an offer he can’t refuse to leave.

Gotta have someone to blame after the 2022 season

Gotta have someone to blame after the 2022 season

They have so many built in.excuses now for next season that it doesn't matter. New DC(we know who the DC really is) OC in second year after horrific failure.....aaaaaand A new starting qb, heck we may end up with 2 quarterbacks playing if one turns to ****.

 

[madinsomniac]

Im probably one of like three people not upset by this move… I really don’t think he was the problem …, now im not sure i trust a new front office to fix the line so it all may be moot who we bring in anyway

The bigger issue is going to be if we don’t find one awesome line coach

 

[SteelerFan448]

I assumed Rooney wasn't going to overrule Tomlin, but this is still disappointing. They must've hired Canada knowing the offense would be limited this year with the eyes on 2022. It still wasn't a good hire.

 

[Free Agent]

And tomorrow Austin will be given his promotion. Rooney !! approves of mediocrity.

 

[PolamaluFanForever43]

Next year won’t matter anyway. I fully expect Mason to be the QB and we should have a pick somewhere close to the top 10. Hopefully in 2023 we find our QB and fire Canada after he fails again in 2022. Of course the real problem will still be around in Tomlin.

[stillerfaninfl]

Season. Over.

 

[Drink IRON City]

Seems many here are surprised by this.

I could be proven wrong but his offensive scheme doesn't seem to fit the nfl unless you are getting an new "mobil" QB every 4-6 years. 2years to learn the system and 2 years before you are beat to crap and need to be replaced.

Time will tell and I always wish good for my beloved STEELERS. This season tested many a patience .

I feel the biggest thing is who are they looking at for OL coach or are we just keeping our third stringer promoted coach in there and we will find him too could very easily be in over his head once the pressure starts to mount.

I'm glad I'm not the one making these decisions and as a passionate fan myself question some of these decisions.




Salute the nation

 

[SteelerSask2]

Clearly they believed that Canada's offense could not be run to full capacity by Roethlisberger. Because statistically there us no way this makes sense. Honestly, I'm not sure I've seen a worse offense at least in the first half.

 

[MTC]

Best ******* news EVER!

Said absolutely no one.

If Tomlin is calling the shots is Canada really bad?

 

[Vindrow]

At this point I wish Rooney would just sell the team to someone who actually gives a ****. (but gotta keep them in Pittsburgh)

 

[bermudasteel]

This does not make me happy. I foresee many drunk game days coming next season...
