How times have changed, it used to be the Cleveland Browns who were firing coaches following bad performances against AFC North opponents. It looks like they have passed that title.
Following another embarrassing offensive output by the Pittsburgh Steelers, they have at last parted ways with offensive coordinator Matt Canada after the Week 11 game against Cleveland.
Pittsburgh had their 10th straight game to steer the season where they were out-gained in total yardage. Still, they remain 6-4 and that’s a testament to Mike Tomlin, the defense, and finding ways to win ugly games.
If you take away a 74-yard touchdown run by Jaylen Warren after a missed tackle, the Steelers would have finished with just 175 total yards. Second-year quarterback Kenny Pickett was just 15-of-28 passing for 106 yards and admitted after the game they were caught off guard by the browns in terms of game planning. That right there was a death notice for Canada’s job.
Jim Schwartz’s defense got the last kick against Canada’s offense and the outcome was the Steelers moving on from him.
The Browns have finished their two games with the Steelers and won’t see the Canada-less offense again this season.
In a changing of the guard's move, the Browns are on the right side of a coach being fired after a divisional game. It’s something that no one is used to.
