Correct. After Canada influenced the playbook in 2020 and ran more of his own in 2021 and then fully his own in 2022 and we’ve seen what we’ve seen, there’s no reason Canada should be employed here in 2023, at this point.
I get the thought process:
2020 - start influencing Ben/Fixhtner playbook.
2021 - you start to install the Matt Canada playbook but Ben is still keeping “his comfortable plays” (by Ben’s admission).
2022 - fully installed Matt Canada playbook.
So you’re going through the process and giving tour employee a fair chance. I got it. Go through the season and the playbook is worse than ever.
Okay…let’s give our guy a full off-season with a new QB, a second year guy and see how we do. Through 4 weeks…worse than 2022. So now what? This is where it goes off rails and Tomlin becomes 100% responsible for the teams failures by not addressing the situation firmly.
Hopefully you get one more week to show me something delicious or you’re gone Monday morning? Nah, nah…Canada will be here for the whole season…
