Matt Canada may be the disliked man in Pittsburgh right now.
The Pittsburgh Steelers experienced the Houston Texans dismantling them, 30-6 on Sunday. Houston was a terrible team when it came to running the ball, yet they did it with ease against the Steelers.
The Texans who had allowed at least 25 points in two of three games held the Steelers to just six points and no touchdowns. Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Matt Canada received a lot of heat on social media for his play-calling.
Now, it seems as if he is defending himself.
Fans online seem to think they have found a burner account belonging to Canada since it is only defending the coach.
Canada is receiving a huge load of criticism for seemingly getting Kenny Pickett injured on a play where the Steelers faced fourth-and-1 with 1:16 remaining in the third quarter while trailing by 10.

The Steelers had kicked field goals on their first two possessions of the second half and forced the Houston Texans to punt twice but instead of another attempt, they elected to keep the offense on the field for the fourth-and-1 play.
Canada called a shotgun pass but none of the pass catchers came open, and Pickett suffered a knee injury while taking a sack. Pickett exited and didn’t return to the game.
Pickett threw for 114 yards with an interception and struggled to move the offense before leaving with the injury.
