Live from Acrisure Stadium, retired Steelers Linebacker, Arthur Moats, interviews 2x Steelers Super Bowl Champion, Chris Hoke, to talk about his journey to the Steelers, playing in 3 Super Bowls, his 1st impression of the City of Pittsburgh plus more!

What did Mike Tomlin think of the ‘Fire Tomlin' chants Sunday night inside Acrisure Stadium? The Steelers are yet again headed toward the same destination they are used to. The national voices continue to defend him or find ways to pull him away from blame. Bruce Arians told The Pat McAfee Show that changing the coordinators have been done time and time again, and that ‘won't fly' with fans anymore. What if fans chant ‘Fire Tomlin' during the draft?

Are callers done with Mike Tomlin? Tomlin-ism of the Week – Mike Tomlin talked about some stupid penalties taken in the game and a ‘loss of composure' that took place against the Bills. It feels like the teams under Tomlin have shown an odd loss of said composure for quite some time. Did Tomlin call out Cam Heyward a little bit today?

December 1, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 57 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into our overarching thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers' Week 13 Sunday home loss to the Buffalo Bills. As you can probably imagine, this show begins with a lot of gloom, despair, and agony vibes. In our weekly housekeeping portion of this Monday show, which is sponsored by the fine folks at TouringPlans.com, Alex and I talk about the Sunday afternoon inactive list and how the Steelers decided to sit CB Darius Slay as one of their five inactive players against the Bills. The Steelers sustained a few injuries Sunday, so we discuss what happened to ILB Patrick Queen and CB James Pierre. We also discuss QB Aaron Rodgers getting beat up more on Sunday against the Bills. The Steelers made a few transactions on Saturday with one of those being T Broderick Jones being placed on the Reserve/Injured list. We discuss Jones likely being out for the season and the offseason decision the Steelers have with him when it comes to his fifth-year option. After going through the newsy items related to Saturday and Sunday, Alex and I look at what all transpired at Acrisure Stadium against the Bills. We first talk about the play of the Steelers' defense and how poor things looked on that side of the football once again. We discuss the historical day the defense had, clearly a negative, and how the Bills offense ran at will against the unit by essentially spamming just two plays. We discuss the Steelers' defense being unable to get to Bills QB Josh Allen on Sunday and how he used his legs, instead of his arm, to really impact the game. We also discuss the coverage bust the Steelers defense had on his lone touchdown pass as well. After beating up on the defense, Alex and I go over the lackluster play from the Steelers offense against the Bills. We talk about the unit's inability to run many plays, the overall lack of a running game, and how there was no passing game down the field to speak of. We discuss a few poor decisions that QB Aaron Rodgers seemingly made against the Bills and how he remains out of sync with TE Jonnu Smith. We go over a few things Rodgers had to say postgame in addition to things that OLB T.J. Watt said to the media. We also discuss the reaction Mike Tomlin had to Sunday's loss postgame. We also talk about the poor offensive schemes and game plans that OC Arthur Smith has put on display recently. The "Fire Tomlin" chants are getting louder in Pittsburgh, so Alex and I discuss that topic. We discuss our faith and lack of faith in Tomlin moving forward. We discuss the Steelers only having two home games remaining and how Tomlin is probably thankful for that. Special teams certainly played a role in the Steelers' loss to the Bills, so Alex and I make sure to hit on what went wrong in that phase of the game on Sunday. Alex and I certainly aren't bullish at all on the Steelers when it comes to their final five games and thus playoff chances. This 109-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted and we wrap things up by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

The regular season is over after Pitt lost to No. 12 Miami 38-7 at Acrisure Stadium on Saturday, and we've got a lot to talk about on the Monday edition of the Morning Pitt. What happened on Saturday? How do we view Pitt's season? And were there two versions of the Panthers this season? All that and more on the Morning Pitt.

Joe and Brian dive into the fallout from the Steelers' 26–7 loss to the Buffalo Bills at Acrisure Stadium. This episode breaks down how Buffalo controlled the trenches, while Pittsburgh's offense sputtered and turnovers in the third quarter sealed the outcome. We examine Aaron Rodgers' struggles, the defense's inability to contain Buffalo's ground game, and the growing frustration among fans, including chants calling for Mike Tomlin's job. With the Steelers now sitting at 6–6, the playoff picture becomes increasingly uncertain. The show also captures the atmosphere inside Acrisure, the social media reaction, and what this loss means for the Steelers moving forward. Closing thoughts focus on the urgency of the upcoming matchups and what adjustments Pittsburgh must make to stay alive in the postseason race: including some coaching changes. Questions or Comments?

Host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise react LIVE to the Steelers' NFL Week 13 with the Buffalo Bills at Acrisure Stadium. This show is presented by FanDuel. How did QB Aaron Rodgers look in his return from injury? Did he look like he could have played last week instead of backup Mason Rudolph? Were pass catchers including DK Metcalf, Darnell Washington, Roman Wilson, Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Calvin Austin III able to find more space than they have in the last several weeks? Were Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell able to continue their momentum in the backfield? How much pressure were T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Nick Herbig, Patrick Queen and others able to get on star Bills QB Josh Allen? And did Mike Tomlin make enough adjustments with Jalen Ramsey, Kyle Dugger, Joey Porter Jr. and others in the secondary to to avoid domination? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

On the Monday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christipher Carter and Ray Fittipaldo react to the NFL Week 13 loss to the Buffalo Bills at Acrisure Stadium. Did coach Mike Tomlin's team show a lack of fight in defeat? How could the effort level not be an indictment of Tomlin and his coaching staff that includes OC Arthur Smith and DC Teryl Austin? And does this team lack the one clear strength past Tomlin teams have needed to recover from long losing skids? Our duo tackles those questions, plus QB Aaron Rodgers calling out practice and film-watching habits. What does it show about the players' commitment level? Can he still get on the same page with receivers including DK Metcalf, Jonnu Smith, Roman Wilson, Calvin Austin III, Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Gerry Dulac and Ray Fittipaldo react to the team's NFL Week 13 loss to the Buffalo Bills at Acrisure Stadium. Why did T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Nick Herbig, Keeanu Benton, Alex Highsmith, Payton Wilson and the defensive front seven struggle so mightily to contain James Cook and the Buffalo running game? Will coach Mike Tomlin and DC Teryl Austin have answers before facing the run-heavy Ravens in a crucial AFC North battle next week? What went wrong for QB Aaron Rodgers in his return from injury? Is there still time for him to find chemistry with pass catchers DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson, Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth? Or is this offense in trouble? Especially after also failing to generate production with running backs Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell? And what will the defense do amid LB Patrick Queen's injury? Our duo tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

The Buffalo Bills set an Acrisure Stadium record with 249 yards rushing in the Bills' 26-7 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Josh Allen once again threw for a touchdown and rushed for one, breaking the mark of 75 previously held by Cam Newton. The team did all this with two back-up tackles. Keon Coleman got out of the doghouse and scored. On defense, Christian Benford had a scoop and score and an interception. Kevin Carroll and Andy Young with all this and more on the latest Buffalo End Zone podcast.

Steelers fans were restless booing at the game on Sunday. Cam Heyward said the crowd can do what it wants and the Steelers didn't play well. The Steelers are in 9th place, with the Chiefs 10th. The only route to the playoffs is the division.

Hour 1 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: This was one of the worst football weekends in Pittsburgh sports history. Pitt and the Steelers were both dominated at Acrisure. The story for Joe is the fanbase turning on the Steelers and Mike Tomlin. The Bills rushed for an Acrisure Stadium record for an opponent against the Steelers and the most rushing yards by an opponent in Pittsburgh since Buffalo in 1975.

The Steelers defense proved yet again why it is one of the most disappointing units in team history. The Bills ran on them for nearly 250 yards in an Acrisure Stadium route. TJ Watt said the Bills were just running the same plays like a game of Madden. Will they right the ship before the season is over?

Oh buddy, we are getting close to rock bottom in Steelers Country. The Steelers were punked by the Bills in the second half yesterday in a 26-7 loss. The Steelers are 6-6 and outside looking in to a playoff spot. For the first time in stadium history, we heard ‘Fire Tomlin' chants that caught the attention of Mike Tomlin. Did it catch the attention of the owner? Probably not. Where are things going from here? First set of venomous fans get their thoughts in following a Steelers bashing at Acrisure Stadium. PIT-BUF Plays of the Game.

The Steelers defense proved yet again why it is one of the most disappointing units in team history. The Bills ran on them for nearly 250 yards in an Acrisure Stadium route. TJ Watt said the Bills were just running the same plays like a game of Madden. Will they right the ship before the season is over? Another Sunday comes and goes with comments from former Steelers after the team looks lifeless against Buffalo. PM Team Professors.

An embarrassing loss for the Steelers, as they give up the most rushing yards in Acrisure Stadium. Mike Tomlin, BTW, has the top 3 of those under his belt. Fire him, please.

Post-Gazette Pitt insiders Stephen Thompson and Abby Schnable break down the Panthers' 38-7 loss to Miami on Saturday afternoon at Acrisure Stadium. What went wrong for the Panthers, and why weren't they able to get the win to keep themselves in ACC championship contention? Despite Pitt being relatively competitive in the first half, what changed heading into a severely lackluster second? Why hasn't Pat Narduzzi been able to fix recurring issues, like a lack of discipline, poor offensive line play and mistakes in the secondary? Why couldn't the Panthers match up against Miami's star defensive linemen Rueben Bain Jr. and Akheem Mesidor? And where does this leave the program as it enters a bowl game and the offseason? What should Pitt's priorities be in the transfer portal? Our duo answers those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

November 28, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 56 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers as they prepare to play the Buffalo Bills at home on Sunday afternoon. With the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens both losing on Thanksgiving, Alex and I discuss the importance of the Steelers beating the Bills at home on Sunday. We talk about how a loss to the bills could potentially limit the Steelers' Wild Card spot chances down to one spot, assuming they don't ultimately win the AFC North division. Alex and I move forward in this show by looking at the Steelers' Thursday injury report, and specifically what the current outlook is for QB Aaron Rodgers, CB Joey Porter Jr., and WR Ben Skowronek when it comes to Sunday's game. We discuss the likelihood of OL Andrus Peat being the starting left tackle on Sunday with T Broderick Jones sidelined for this Week 13 contest. The Bills are dealing with several key injuries this week as well and so Alex and I recap what their Thursday report looked like and how it seems Buffalo is likely to be without their two starting tackles on Sunday. We also talk about the Bills recently signing veteran WR Bradin Cooks and the role he might have against the Steelers at Acrisure Stadium. On Thursday, we once again heard from two of the Steelers' coordinators, Arthur Smith and Teryl Austin, so Alex and I recap the main talking points to come out of those media sessions. We talk about what Smith had to say about hunting for more explosive plays on offense and what Austin had to say about some of the woes the team's defense has had. We welcome Matt Parrino of Syracuse.com back to the show on Friday, and he helps us preview the Steelers-Bills game. Parrino has covered the Bills for many seasons, and he certainly knows that team inside and out. We get his thoughts on several things related to the Sunday afternoon game in Pittsburgh and that includes his analysis of QB Josh Allen, OC Joe Brady, and the several injuries that Buffalo is dealing with this week. Parrino gives us his outlook for the 2025 Bills moving forward this season and while he doesn't give a final score prediction on Friday morning, he gives his early thoughts on how he sees the Sunday game in Pittsburgh going and which team he's leaning toward picking as the winner. If not already doing so, make sure to follow Matt on X/Twitter at @mattparrino and make sure to read his work here: https://www.syracuse.com/staff/mparrino/. After finishing with Parrino, Alex and I provide our own preview of the Steelers-Bills game. We break down what we are looking for out of each team on both sides of the football Sunday afternoon.

November 19, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 52 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers making a few transactions since our last show with one of those being the signing of QB/WR John Rhys Plumlee back to the practice squad on Tuesday. We talk about why Plumlee was likely added to the practice squad in addition to discussing why five other players were brough in for tryouts on Tuesday. Alex and I then go over the list of injured players the Steelers have heading into Week 12 with QB Aaron Rodgers obviously being our main focus due to a fracture of some kind in his left wrist. We discuss what all HC Mike Tomlin had to say on Tuesday about Rodgers possibly playing on Sunday against the Chicago Bears and whether our gut feelings tell us when it comes to that possibly happening. Should the Steelers strongly consider starting QB Mason Rudolph against the Bears regardless of what transpires this week with Rodgers? Alex and I attack that question in this show and also talk about the possibility of Rodgers being the backup on Sunday against the Bears. We also talk a little about rookie QB Will Howard possibly getting a few first-team reps this week with Rodgers slowed by injury. As usual, Alex and I parse all of the notable talking points that came out of Tomlin Tuesday. We discuss what Tomlin had to say about playing time on Sunday for CB Darius Slay and CB James Pierre and if indeed the former will wind up resuming as the starter against the Bears if he clears concussion protocol this week. We discuss what playing time on Sunday might and should look like on Sunday against the Bears when it comes to both Slay and Pierre. Tomlin talked some about TE Darnell Washington and his usage in the offense on Tuesday, so we make sure to dive a bit deeper into those comments. We also talk about what Tomlin had to say about the reaction S Jalen Ramsey had to Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase spitting on him in the second half of the Week 11 Sunday game at Acrisure Stadium. With Chase having his one-game suspension upheld on Tuesday as part of his appeal process, Alex and I address what should happen to every player that spits on another player during a game and how the NFL needs to take a more defined punishment stance moving forward. With the All-22 tape from the Steelers' Sunday home win against the Bengals now fully digested by us, Alex and I discuss the good, bad and ugly that we uncovered from that. We start with the defense and go over how that unit effectively did against the pass on Sunday and the changes that we have seen schematically the last several weeks with Ramsey and Kyle Dugger now manning the two safety positions. We also discuss the three outside linebacker packages the Steelers used on Sunday against the Bengals and how effective that was. After talking about the defensive play on Sunday, Alex and I move on to talk some about what we saw from the Steelers offense on the all-22 tape from the game against the Bengals. We were both less enthused when it came to that side of the football and we explain why. We also wonder if Rudolph might try to push the football down the field more on Sunday against the Bears should he indeed get the start in that contest over the injured Rodgers. Alex and I mix in quite a few tape observations during this show and we make sure to discuss the recent play of several different players as well. Alex previews a tape study that he is working on when it comes to Steelers DT Keeanu Benton as well. This 110-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted and we wrap things up by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In the Bengals' 34-12 loss to the Steelers on November 16, 2025, defensive end Myles Murphy delivered his most commanding performance yet, a beacon of progress amid a deflating defeat. The 2023 first-round pick entered the game under scrutiny, with just 4.5 sacks through 10 outings and the Bengals' pass rush depleted by injuries to Trey Hendrickson and Shemar Stewart. Facing a revamped Pittsburgh line featuring ex-first-rounders Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu, Murphy stepped up as the de facto leader of Cincy's edge rotation. Murphy's stat line screamed dominance: a career-high seven tackles, five in the first half alone, anchoring the run defense with five stops that limited Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell's explosiveness. He led the team with six quarterback pressures, per Pro Football Focus, constantly disrupting Aaron Rodgers (and later Mason Rudolph) in the pocket. His crowning moment came midway through the second quarter: teaming with B.J. Hill for an 11-yard sack on Rodgers, a thunderous strip-sack that forced a punt and ignited Who Dey cheers in Acrisure Stadium. Murphy's bull rushes overwhelmed Fautanu, ending the rookie's recent hype, while his pursuit angles—chasing down Warren for a 3-yard stuff—showcased improved instincts and effort. This wasn't mere volume; it was refined technique. Murphy switched sides seamlessly, exploiting mismatches with violent hand usage and a low pad level honed during the bye week. Despite a roughing-the-passer flag that gifted Pittsburgh a first down and a neutral zone infraction, his motor never waned, even as the defense surrendered a pick-six and fumble return for scores in the second half. Teammates like Joseph Ossai and Cedric Johnson fed off his energy, hinting at a budding rotation. For a Bengals D ranked 28th in sacks, Murphy's breakout signals hope. At 22, he's evolving from raw athlete to disruptive force, pressuring coaches to eye his fifth-year option. In a season of 3-7 despair, this was Murphy's "put it all together" game—raw power meets football IQ. If sustained, it could salvage Cincinnati's pass rush and playoff dreams.

November 17, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 51 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into our overarching thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers' Week 11 Sunday afternoon home win against the Cincinnati Bengals. In our weekly housekeeping portion of this Monday show, which is sponsored by the fine folks at TouringPlans.com, Alex and I talk about the Sunday afternoon inactive list and the few transactions the team has made since our Friday show. Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers sustained a left wrist injury late in the first half of the Sunday game against the Bengals and it resulted in him leaving the contest at halftime. Alex and I discuss the latest reports concerning that injury and whether Rodgers will ultimately miss a game or more as a result of it. Sunday's game included Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase spitting on Steelers S Jalen Ramsey, and it resulted in the former being ejected from that contest due to him throwing a punch. We discuss how Chase lied after the game about spitting on Ramsey and whether he or Ramsey will be suspended for any future games. We talk about Ramsey's reaction to getting spit on and how such an act is unforgivable. After going through the newsy items related to Sunday's game, Alex and I look at what all transpired at Acrisure Stadium. We talk first about the play of the Steelers defense on Sunday and that includes us discussing the individual performances of several players. We talk about Chase being limited in the passing game, Bengals QB Joe Flacco holding the football longer, and obviously the two key takeaways for scores that were registered during the second half. Steelers CB James Pierre continues to play well on Sunday, so we discuss how he deserves to play ahead of CB Darius Slay moving forward. We also discuss the bad penalty called on Steelers OLB T.J. Watt on Sunday. After discussing the play of the Steelers defense against the Bengals, Alex and I then do the same when it comes to Pittsburgh's offense. We talk a lot about how QB Mason Rudolph played in the second half and how RB Kenneth Gainwell and TE Darnell Washington made a few game-changing plays during the contest as well. We discuss the role yards after the catch played in Pittsburg's win over the Bengals and we make sure to hit on a few snap counts from that contest on that side of the football. The Steelers converted a few key third downs on offense on Sunday so we make sure to talk about that. We make sure to point out that the Steelers offense really only had two offensive possessions in the second half of Sunday's game. Alex and I provide a few thoughts on Pittsburgh's special teams play on Sunday and that includes us focusing in on one punt return that WR Calvin Austin III had in that contest. This 114-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted and we wrap things up by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the Steel City Underground postgame podcast, we break down the Steelers' commanding 34–12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals at Acrisure Stadium. The defense set the tone early, scoring twice and rattling Joe Flacco into costly mistakes. Kyle Dugger's pick-six was the turning point, and the Bengals never recovered. Aaron Rodgers exited […] Rodgers Out, Rudolph Delivers, Ramsey Tossed – Steelers Roll appeared first on Steel City Underground.

PITTSBURGH -- The Bengals saw any realistic chance of competing for the AFC North come to an end Sunday with an ugly 34-12 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium. The game was ugly in many facets, the Steelers had two defensive scores, Joe Flacco came back to earth and Ja'Marr Chase and Jalen Ramsey got into it, with Ramsey getting ejected for grabbing Chase's facemask and video emerging postgame that Chase spit in the face of Ramsey to spark the brawl. The Bengals looked undisciplined and unprepared again in falling to 3-7 on the season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In a brutal AFC North showdown at Acrisure Stadium on November 16, 2025, the Cincinnati Bengals' flickering playoff aspirations were snuffed out in a 34-12 thrashing by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Dropping to 3-7, Cincinnati's defense showed early grit but crumbled under second-half turnovers, while an offense led by Joe Flacco sputtered against a revamped Steelers unit. The loss halts any momentum from their Week 7 upset over Pittsburgh, exposing persistent issues in protection and execution. The Bengals struck first, marching 75 yards on their opening drive capped by Flacco's 28-yard touchdown strike to Tee Higgins, who extended his scoring streak to four games and sits third league-wide with seven receiving TDs. Cincinnati's defense, anchored by Myles Murphy's career-high seven tackles (including a sack) and Oren Burks' nine stops, blanked Pittsburgh after their initial field goal, forcing four punts and limiting them to 188 yards through halftime. Chase Brown powered the ground game with 99 rushing yards on 18 carries—his fourth straight 100-yard scrimmage outing—adding hope amid a 9-6 deficit. But the third quarter flipped the script. Flacco's errant pass was swiped by Steelers safety Kyle Dugger, who sprinted 74 yards for a pick-six, igniting a 20-9 Pittsburgh lead. The Bengals clawed to 13-20 late in the frame, but a fumbled snap led to cornerback James Pierre's 32-yard scoop-and-score, ballooning the margin to 27-12. Mason Rudolph, stepping in for the wrist-injured Aaron Rodgers, sealed it with a 5-yard toss to Kenneth Gainwell, who tallied two TD catches. Flacco finished 23-of-40 for 199 yards, one score, and the costly interception—snapping his 100+ passer rating streak. Ja'Marr Chase, double-teamed relentlessly, managed just three catches for 30 yards after his 16-reception explosion versus Pittsburgh earlier. A sideline scuffle saw Steelers' Jalen Ramsey ejected for punching Chase amid unproven spitting allegations, adding fuel to the rivalry. Head coach Zac Taylor lamented, "You feel all the losses. They all eat at you... Our option is to come back tomorrow and keep fighting." Flacco acknowledged Pittsburgh's adjustments: "They had a couple guys on him [Chase] more often... We've got to match that." With a red-hot New England squad next, Cincinnati must rally or face a lost season. The Bengals' defense forced Pittsburgh into inefficiency early, but self-inflicted wounds—turnovers, penalties, and injuries to Cam Taylor-Britt (foot) and Trey Hendrickson (hip, out second straight)—proved fatal. At 3-7, their wild-card path is a steep climb, demanding urgent fixes in a division where the Steelers (6-4) now lead comfortably. Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

Post-Gazette Pitt insiders Stephen Thompson and Abby Schnable break down the Panthers' 37-15 loss to Notre Dame on Saturday from Acrisure Stadium. Did Pitt miss a major opportunity to show out on a big stage on national TV and with "College GameDay" in town? What went wrong for the offense? Does Mason Heintschel deserve blame for his poor performance, or was it a case of not having much help from his teammates? What positives can the defense take away, as it actually fared well against the Fighting Irish despite being put in some horrible positions? And Is there any reason to believe Pitt can still win the ACC championship, with big games against Georgia Tech and Miami looming? Our duo answers those questions and more.

In a league increasingly defined by youth and flash, Joe Flacco and Aaron Rodgers represent the grizzled veterans who refuse to fade. At 40 and 41, respectively, the duo's second showdown of the 2025 NFL season on Sunday—Bengals at Steelers—evokes a bygone era of pocket passers with ice in their veins. Their first clash, a Thursday night thriller on Oct. 16 in Cincinnati, was a 33-31 Bengals escape that felt like a nod to their Super Bowl legacies. Flacco, thrust into the Bengals' starting role amid Joe Burrow's injury woes, orchestrated a fourth-quarter masterclass. He went 31-of-47 for 342 yards and three touchdowns, capping the win with a game-winning drive that silenced a raucous Paycor Stadium crowd. Rodgers, in his Steelers debut after a surprise June free-agency signing, nearly stole it, tossing four scores on 249 yards but undone by two picks—including a back-breaking interception in the red zone. It marked just the second starting QB matchup of 40-plus-year-olds in NFL history, behind only Vinny Testaverde and Warren Moon in 2002.  Now, with Burrow practicing but Flacco downplaying any benching—"I'm honestly not really thinking about it"—the iron man from Audubon, N.J., gets the nod in Pittsburgh. The Bengals (3-6 post-bye) desperately need this to stay afloat in the AFC North, leaning on Ja'Marr Chase's explosiveness to exploit a Steelers secondary that's surrendered 1,200 receiving yards to wideouts this year. Flacco's steady 68% completion rate and seven TDs over his last four starts make him a sneaky fantasy gem, but the road test at Acrisure Stadium looms large. For Rodgers, wearing black and gold has been a mixed bag: 2,100 yards and 15 TDs, but the Steelers' 4-5 mark reflects offensive line woes and a run game that's averaged a measly 3.8 yards per carry. Najee Harris must grind early to set up play-action magic, or Flacco's poise could haunt them again. This "Old Bowl" rematch isn't just divisional fireworks—it's a testament to longevity in a brutal sport. Will Rodgers reclaim his four-time MVP aura, or does Flacco, the eternal bridesmaid turned Bengal savior, prove age is merely a number? Kickoff at 1 p.m. ET promises answers, with playoff implications hanging in the balance. Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

Host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise to preview Pitt football's ranked showdown against Notre Dame at Acrisure Stadium. This show is presented by FanDuel. Do the Panthers need a win to generate buzz in the city? More than they need it for their ACC and College Football Playoff chances, as coach Pat Narduzzi alluded to this week? Do Desmond Reid, Rasheem Biles, Kyle Louis and Co. deserve better than double-digit underdog status? Could QB Mason Heintschel become a hot commodity on the transfer market this offseason if he's able to lead an upset? And how do the Pitt linebackers match up with Jeremiyah Love and the Fighting Irish running game? Our duo tackles those questions and previews the Pitt-West Virginia Backyard Brawl rivalry game in basketball as well. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The storied Bengals-Steelers rivalry reignites this Sunday, November 16, at Acrisure Stadium, where the Pittsburgh Steelers (5-4) host the Cincinnati Bengals (3-6) in a pivotal Week 11 matchup. With Pittsburgh clinging to a one-game lead in the AFC North over the Ravens, a win keeps their postseason hopes alive, while Cincinnati eyes a season sweep after stunning the Steelers 33-20 in Week 7.  Kickoff is at 1 p.m. ET on CBS, with oddsmakers favoring Pittsburgh by 5.5 points and an over/under of 49.5.  The Bengals enter off a bye week, desperate to salvage their season without star QB Joe Burrow, who's sidelined by a toe injury but designated for return soon. Veteran Joe Flacco steps in, fresh off a monster 470-yard, four-TD outing against Chicago on November 2—his best since 2022. Flacco's career mark against Pittsburgh? A balanced 11-11, with 27 TDs in those tilts. He'll lean on WR Ja'Marr Chase, who torched the Steelers for 16 catches, 161 yards, and a score in their last meeting, exploiting CB Jalen Ramsey's coverage. Chase's deep-threat ability could test Pittsburgh's secondary, which has surrendered 376 yards per game lately.  Pittsburgh counters with Aaron Rodgers under center, but the future Hall of Famer's recent form is shaky: just 161 yards and two picks in a 25-10 loss to the Chargers. The Steelers' offense ranks near the bottom (280.7 yards/game), plagued by five turnovers since Week 7 and a paltry 85.7 rushing yards. RB Jaylen Warren must grind out yards against Cincy's front, while WR Roman Wilson (113 receiving yards over the last three games) steps up amid injuries. Defensively, Pittsburgh's pass rush (32 sacks, league-second) remains elite, but they've leaked 28.25 points per game recently.  Injuries loom large: Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson (hip) is doubtful, weakening their edge rush, while RB Samaje Perine (undisclosed) is questionable. Steelers CB Darius Slay (concussion) and G Isaac Seumalo (pectoral) are iffy, potentially exposing vulnerabilities. Betting trends favor the over (hitting in 7 of 9 Bengals games) and Cincinnati covering as underdogs (3-6 ATS but 4 straight divisional wins).  Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

Jon Gruden is coming back to town to see Pitt and Notre Dame clash on Saturday – and he thinks Pitt wins the football game. What will it take for Pitt to win this game? Mason Heintschel will need to have a big one, that's for sure. The Irish have been hot as they come into Acrisure Stadium. Heintschel's attitude and mindset is a good one to have because he seems like a pretty unflappable QB. How scary is Notre Dame, a team that has been playing for its season since suffering their second loss? The Panthers haven't lost since making the QB change, but can they keep it going against a top tier program?

Jon Gruden is coming back to town to see Pitt and Notre Dame clash on Saturday – and he thinks Pitt wins the football game. What will it take for Pitt to win this game? Mason Heintschel will need to have a big one, that's for sure. The Irish have been hot as they come into Acrisure Stadium. Heintschel's attitude and mindset is a good one to have because he seems like a pretty unflappable QB. How scary is Notre Dame, a team that has been playing for its season since suffering their second loss? The Panthers haven't lost since making the QB change, but can they keep it going against a top tier program? KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Pomp reacted to Paul Skenes winning the Cy Young and the big story that came from yesterday, centered around Skenes having ‘dreams' of playing for the Yankees. Bob thinks Skenes will play at least 2 more full seasons here and that the Pirates have to go out and do something with a bang. What kind of atmosphere is around this game on Saturday and how can Pitt pull off the win? Pomp said the last thing Pitt wants to do is let Notre Dame out to a hot start with a crowd that will likely have a lot of Irish fans. Pomp's crystal ball on Sunday tells him the Steelers win the game, but a close one. Chris got some thoughts from Bob ahead of the basketball Backyard Brawl tonight at 6.

Post-Gazette Pitt football insiders Stephen Thompson and Abby Schnable react to coach Pat Narduzzi's news conference ahead of a ranked matchup with Notre Dame at Acrisure Stadium. This show is presented by FanDuel. What did Narduzzi mean when he said the game isn't a "must-win" for his team led by Desmond Reid, Mason Heintschel, Kyle Louis and Rasheem Biles? Was it an odd comment for him to make with the national spotlight on his program this week? Or is it an accurate reflection of Pitt's contender status in the ACC title race? Our duo tackles those questions, then ponders whether Pitt is the best team in the conference after weekend upset losses for top competitors including Louisville and Virginia.
