December 16, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 64 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Tuesday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into our overarching thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers' Week 15 Monday night win against the Miami Dolphins. In our weekly housekeeping portion of this show, which is sponsored by the fine folks at TouringPlans.com, Alex and I talk about the Monday night inactive list and the players that missed the contest due to injuries. We also talk about the several transactions that the team made on Monday afternoon. The Steelers sustained a few injuries Monday night, so we discuss those in addition to the outlook of several players looking to return from injuries. We also go over what Steelers HC Mike Tomlin had to say on Tuesday about OLB T.J. Watt, who missed the Monday night contest with a lung issue. Tomlin held his weekly press conference right before we recorded this episode, so Alex and I make sure to recap all of the main talking points that came out of that media session during this show. After going through the newsy items related to Monday, Alex and I look at what all transpired at Acrisure Stadium against the Dolphins. We first talk about the play of the Steelers' offense and how the Number 11 plays a big part in today's show. We discuss the play of QB Aaron Rodgers on Monday night and how T Dylan Cook represented himself well in his first NFL start. Alex and I mix in quite a few stats related to the Monday night game and we discuss how the offense came alive right before the second half ended. We go over several big plays that the offense made on Monday night and we make sure to spend extra time talking about the season that RB Kenneth Gainwell has had to date. After a lengthy discussion about the play of the Steelers' offense, Alex and then do the same with the team's defense. We discuss that unit controlling the Dolphins' rushing attack and how QB Tua Tagovailoa was made to hold the football way too ,long most of the game. We discuss several individual performances on defense, and we mix in snap counts along the way, in addition to several key stats. Finally, Alex and I give some thoughts on special teams play from Monday night. The New York Jets are reportedly waiving WR Allen Lazard on Tuesday, so we discuss the possibility and plausibility of him landing in Pittsburgh due to his association with Rodgers. Will and should the Steelers go with Cook as their starting left tackle moving forward? Alex and I address that question at length during this show. This 92-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.

Can his downfield passing success with pass catchers including DK Metcalf, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Kenneth Gainwell and Pat Freiermuth continue? Is he finally mastering OC Arthur Smith's offense after some midseason struggles? Or is he simply taking advantage of bad and mediocre teams like the Dolphins and Ravens?

On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Noah Hiles welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to react to coach Mike Tomlin's choices at receiver in the NFL Week 14 victory against the AFC North rival Baltimore Ravens. What's next for Roman Wilson after he was benched in favor of veterans Adam Thielen and Marquez Valdes-Scantling? Can he bounce back and become a reliable target for QB Aaron Rodgers across from top receiver DK Metcalf? Or will those two vets prove to be improvements within OC Arthur Smith's offense? Our duo tackles those questions, then takes stock of the Steelers' place in the AFC. How dangerous are De'Von Achane and the Miami Dolphins this week? Will the Steelers have a prime opportunity for a deep run if Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs and Lamar Jackson and the Ravens miss the bracket? Are Josh Allen and the Bills the biggest threat to win the conference regardless of seeding? And are Justin Herbert and the Chargers the team the Steelers should be hoping to see if they host a playoff game at Acrisure Stadium? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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/.

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.

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).
