Usually don’t do this, but obviously this is a different type of presser/holds more weight:

  • The decision to fire Matt Canada did not come lightly. Tomlin has a lot of respect for Canada, on a personal and professional level. [source]

  • The decision to fire Matt Canada was because the improvements were not rapid enough nor consistent enough to continue the relationship. [source]

  • “You have to score touchdowns in this business” [source]

  • Confirmed that Eddie Faulkner will be the coordinator but Mike Sullivan will call plays. [source]

  • There will be no grading on a curve for the coaching staff, as he expects to see improvements. [source]

  • Bringing in someone from the outside, for interim OC, was not really considered. [source]

  • Steelers football, in late November, still shows signs of Steelers football, from September. [source]

  • Tomlin clarifies that it was his decision, and his decision alone, to move on from Canada. [source]

  • Steelers players were not informed of the coaching change, ahead of time. [source]

  • The offensive miscommunications, at this point in the season, were unacceptable. [source]

  • “We’re not urinating on the fire, man” [source]

    “You have to score touchdowns in this business” [source]

    I wonder if this is also a warning to Kenny “worst TD% since the merger” Pickett?
