Steelers fans boo their team after abysmal 1st half

The Pittsburgh Steelers entered the field prior to today's home opener in a cloud of smoke and roaring cheers from the sold out road at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh. 

However, the fan euphoria quickly was dispelled by an abysmal first half for their team that saw them bested by the visiting San Francisco 49ers in passing yards (154 to 51) and rushing yards (68 to 26) as well as on the scoreboard. We've reached halftime, and the 49ers enjoy a 20-7 lead. 

Quarterback Kenny Pickett has already been picked off once, while the offense as a whole has just under nine minutes of possession time compared to San Francisco's 21:06.

Fans voiced their displeasure with the Steelers performance with a chorus of booing as the team made their way to the locker room, while plenty of fans expressed their fury at offensive coordinator Matt Canada on social media:
