Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the team's distribution of reps at tight end between Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith. Freiermuth is the better blocker and somewhat surprisingly, has been the better receiver this year as well. So why does Arthur Smith insist on playing Smith so much? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the team's rushing defense and the potential for a big-picture failure this week against the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers gave up 299 yards rushing to the Ravens while going 1-2 against the playoffs last season, and then spent most of the offseason trying to build their defense up so that won't happen again. Yet even against teams with lesser rushing attacks that feature dual-threat athletes, the Steelers have struggled.  Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. On today's episode, we discuss what came of Mike Tomlin's weekly availability. He said there wouldn't be any massive changes to the coaching staff at this time, including their current duties. He also said he shares the frustrations of fans, following chants for him to be fired. The team is moving on from CB Darius Slay and signing CB Asante Samuel Jr. to the 53-man roster in a corresponding move. The team also claimed WR Adam Theilen off of waivers. How does he fit? Does the move make any sense? We also discuss why this loss to the Bills was different. Let's go for another Steelers Afternoon Drive and discuss all this! Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the future of defensive coordinator Teryl Austin, whose unit has under-performed all season and is in the final season of his contract. It seems very unlikely that Austin will be back for 2025, but there are plenty of good reasons that Mike Tomlin shouldn't want to wait until the end of the season to make a chance at defensive playcaller.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. On today's episode, we discuss the team's embarrassing loss at the hands of the Buffalo Bills. The things that have gone wrong continue to be the things that go wrong with no clear path towards fixing them. The defense can't make adjustments in game. There is no threat of a passing attack, which means teams can sit on the run game. The guys being paid to be the team's best players aren't being their best players and the coaching staff has been largely outmatched.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's why the defense went back to a Cover 3-based scheme against the Chicago Bears on Sunday, after running two-high safety looks successfully the last few weeks. The Bears run the ball a lot and also play with two tight ends, necessitating additional coverage in the middle of the field, and not double covering the outside receivers as Teryl Austin's unit had been doing. That works in principle, but the Bears were able to attack the weaknesses in the Pittsburgh scheme, and Austin and company never adjusted. Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the Steelers' standing in the AFC North, as they are now tied with the Baltimore Ravens in 6-5 at first place. With the Ravens coming on strong after getting Lamar Jackson back from injury, it's a no-brainer to like the Ravens the best out of the four AFC North squads right now. But would you rather be in Pittsburgh's place than the Cincinnati Bengals or Cleveland Browns? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the team's 31-28 loss to the Chicago Bears, the team's continued problems on defense, and what that means for not only 2025 but for the future of the organization. The team's defense, hailed as historic before the start of the 2025 season, is ranked 13th in scoring defense. The entire theory of this team was that a strong defense would keep them competitive until they were able to rebuild the offense in the post-Ben Roethlisberger years.  After Sunday's bashing by the Bears, that plan does not seem to be working.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the narratives surrounding the recent performance of quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers wasn't great before leaving last week's win over the Cincinnati Bengals at halftime, but he wasn't as bad as he had been the previous week, either. Back up Mason Rudolph only slightly performed better, and most of that was do to his receivers running after the catch. Is there really a lot that Rodgers could be learning from Rudolph if he is unable to play against the Chicago Bears this Sunday? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the Pittsburgh offense, which is currently 12th in scoring in the NFL. But while Arthur Smith's unit is doing well enough on the scoreboard, they are 22nd in passing yards per game and 29th in rushing yards per game. They're 28th in total yards pre game, and only 22nd in yards per play. So how are they scoring at a level that far outpaces their statistical contributions? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the play of safeties Kyle Dugger and Jalen Ramsey, who have stabilized the team's secondary since their installment as starters, with Dugger coming over in a trade from the New England Patriots and Ramsey moving from cornerback to free safety. Against the Cincinnati Bengals the second time around, the Pittsburgh secondary did much better facing Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins and the play of the safeties was a big part of it.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the play of cornerback James Pierre, who made his first start of the season in Sunday's 34-12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Pierre was replacing Darius Slay, who missed the game with a concussion, but has he played well enough to keep that starting job, even after Slay returns? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's whether the team has a quarterback controversy after Mason Rudolph played well in relief of Aaron Rodgers in Sunday's 34-12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The team does not, as they intend to play Rodgers as soon as he's healthy, which could be this Sunday against against the Chicago Bears. But should they? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's whether the Pittsburgh offense can go toe-to-toe with Cincinnati's in a shootout. In the last five games between the Steelers and Bengals, every time Cincinnati has had Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins available to them, they've scored at least 30 points. The Pittsburgh offense is coming off its worst game of the season, managing just 10 points after a garbage-time touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. But it may be up to that unit to find a way to return to form, and secure victory for the Black and Gold. Can they do it? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's how the Pittsburgh defense can handle the star Cincinnati receivers. Last time around, JaMarr Chase and Tee Higgins torched them for over 250 yards, with Andrei Iosivas and Noah Fant piling to make it fan even 350 yards for the top four receivers combined in a 33-31 Cincinnati win on Thursday Night Football last month. This time around, there are different personnel available to Teryl Austin, Mike Tomlin and company, but is there a schematic answer? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the return of rookie quarterback Will Howard from the injured reserve list. Howard has been out since training camp with a broken pinky finger that cost him his best opportunity to make an impact during his rookie year -- the preseason. With Howard now returning mid-season, will he get a real opportunity to show what he can do, or will it mostly be a wasted season for the sixth-round rookie from Ohio State? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the last four games of extremely inconsistent football. The Pittsburgh offense played well enough to win against the Cincinnati Bengals and Green Bay Packers, but the defense fell apart. Last week, it was the offense coming up well short against the Los Angeles Chargers while the defense held serve. So what to expect going forward? Alan breaks it down.

Today, it's the team's Week 10 game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the roller coaster of emotion that Steeler Nation has been riding the last two weeks. After consecutive losses to the Cincinnati Bengals and Green Bay Packers, the pitchforks and torches were out, with a large portion of the fanbase wanting to fire Mike Tomlin despite a 4-3 start that had the team in first place. Two days after a win over the Indianapolis Colts, the fanbase is now aflame that general manager Omar Khan had the audacity to stand pat with the very same squad the fanbase wanted to jettison, instead of going all in on winning a championship this season.  Alan breaks it down.
