Would Kenny Pickett Have Had Similar Success To Mason Rudolph Without Canada?

Would Kenny Pickett have had similar success in a post-Canada offense as Mason Rudolph if he didn’t get hurt?

This is the big, hypothetical question the Steelers face this offseason. They made two key decisions in the second half of last season. First, they fired offensive coordinator Matt Canada. They determined that he couldn’t get the job done, and they wanted to make an urgent change.

Then they benched Mitch Trubisky in favor of Mason Rudolph after Kenny Pickett went down. By then, the offense had almost a month to adjust, with Eddie Faulkner and Mike Sullivan leading the way.
