    Here's the Brooke Pryor article I read, with the quote from Tomlin:

    Dulac reported that it was Rooney’s decision.

    And he’s never wrong.

    I'm genuinely shocked they fired Canada. I jusy saw a meme about it about 20 seconds and thought it was fake news...but it actually happened. Who are they going to replace him with???

    A problem way before KP, and that's what KP walked into.

    We need to find the right guy, not some milque-toast hiring MT can control.

    When asked by a reporter this afternoon, Tomlin had a perfectly good reason for why Canada was fired.

    "A totality of a miriad of variables."

    Maybe Canada had a sound system in place but he's a lousy play caller.

    Who cares, he's gone and there's nothing we can do about it.

    You think they brought Canada down to the field for his health?

    He was on a short leash.

    Tomlin at his presser today said it was his decision FWIW.

    All those players complaining about the offense recently probably had something to do with it.

    He also said he did it was because they're not scoring enough points.

    I have to believe quite a few of the players get a jump in their step this week. Optimism is powerful

    That doesn't mean the locker room was lost, sure guys are frustrated though.

    Shocked. It's about time. It should have happened at the end of last year.

    Thank heavens. The Pickett apologists better come up with a new excuse, because he still stinks.

    Mid-season, it makes sense to hire an interim from within. You can't just change all of the language and scrap the entire system when there are only 7 games left.

    That said, if this arrangement is retained into next season, then I'd be very disappointed. Sadly, I halfway expect that to be the case, however...sacking Canada was unprecedented in Steelers history, as it's been 80 years since we changed high ranking personnel mid-season, which makes me think it's also quite possible that the organization is willing to shake things up and hire someone big from the outside during the off-season.

    Guess we'll just have to see!
