Head coach Mike Tomlin had multiple discussions with the staff, including his boss, Steelers owner Art Rooney, before informing Canada he was out after three seasons of calling plays. I was told by team sources the decision was truly Tomlin’s call. While ownership listened and supported the head coach, he was never instructed or pressured to make a change.

Conspicuous phrasing, considering the whole fanbase argument was about whether Tomlin was instructed or pressured not to make a change. But honestly I can only be so mad it took this long to fire Canada, I’m too busy being glad it actually happened.

“Hey boss good morning, oh by the way I just fired a guy with an important position and a lot of responsibility that now has to be handled by multiple people. Oh and by the way you still have to pay him for the rest of the season. You want anything from the cafeteria, worked up an appetite firing that guy”
