Interesting

“The Steelers are expected to promote QB coach Matt Canada to offensive coordinator, sources tell me and @TomPelissero. A creative mind originally from the college game, Canada also interviewed with the #Dolphins but now stays in Pittsburgh.“

They need to trade and get Russell Gage to run the jet sweep!

From what I heard about the guy, he was kind of an a-hole and some of the players didn’t react well to his coaching style (coaches as well for that matter). I bet his style works better in NFL.

As far as his scheme/play calling is concerned, not sure. Will be interested to see what his offense looks like.

His play calling was fine at lsu IMO. It was everything else that was bad.

So Linehan and Canada are NFL OCs now? Boy that Coach O has an eye for coaching talent.

From what I have seen, the big ego / over controlling coaches don't do well in the NFL. If he got the job he may have tempered his style.

He didn’t suck. His offense was decent at LSU. Coach O got nervous and cut back a lot of the window dressing after games into the season, so we never got the full offense.

O was done with him because there was a clash of egos when it came to if Canada had total control of the offense or was O supposed to step in and cut out things he didn’t like.

I don’t get the hate for Canada his falling out with Orgeron was about starting then true freshman Brennan over Etling (who severely limited the play sheet because of his weak arm). Moreover O wasn’t committing to the passing game hence the prevelance of jet sweeps. Not to mention presnap motion which if you watched usually got leverage.


Does he have character issues 100% but he is a bright offensive mind. Wish him luck
