The Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason were not shy about talking about Matt Canada and the fact that his hiring has seen the team seek to incorporate more pre-snap motion and things of that nature in their offense. Though he was only hired as the team’s quarterbacks coach, Mike Tomlin holds an open door policy as far as good ideas are concerned. And Canada has extensive experience as an offensive coordinator at the college level.
The use of motion was a frequent question topic during training camp when members of the media had the opportunity to speak to players and coaches, and really, the only person who ever seemed to downplay it was Tomlin, who simply cautioned that it might take some time under the circumstances before we begin to see that.
