"Steelers' Offense Thrives After OC's Firing: Game Highlights and Recap"

The Pittsburgh Steelers' offense had a prolific day in their first game since offensive coordinator Matt Canada's firing, gaining over 400 yards and outgaining their opponent for the first time this season.

The inclusion of tight ends, particularly Pat Freiermuth, provided a big boost to the offense, with Freiermuth setting a career high of 120 receiving yards.
