All the criticism of Matt Canada is warranted — but way more should go to guy who promoted him. That just makes sense. This offense was at a critical juncture after last season. Tomlin hired wrong coordinator, wrong O line coach. That’s a bad 0 for 2

L Bell says it's "tough to win" when Ben distributes ball way he does. Steelers were 20-3 in Bell's final 23 regular-season games here, and he says they would've won SB in '16 if he'd finished AFC title game. So it couldn't have been THAT tough to win
