On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Noah Hiles welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze the offense's upside as the defense struggles. Can OC Arthur Smith's unit overcome the struggles of the defense to deliver wins? How much more can Smith get out of names like Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson, Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith, Darnell Washington, Jaylen Warren, Kenneth Gainwell and Kaleb Johnson? And how much pressure is on Omar Khan to trade for a true No. 2 receiver if offense is the unit that's going to carry coach Mike Tomlin's team to the NFL playoffs?

Live around 5 p.m., Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise gives his thoughts on the Steelers quarterback situation through the lens of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields struggling elsewhere, with Fields notably drawing criticism this week from his New York Jets owner, Woody Johnson. Do coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Omar Khan deserve more credit for zeroing in on Aaron Rodgers when he became available this offseason? Could Wilson or Fields have had similar success in Arthur Smith's offense with weapons like DK Metcalf, Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth around them? And will the ultimate outcome be any different with Rodgers than it might have been with Wilson or Fields in the form of an NFL playoffs victory? Paul tackles those topics and gives his thoughts on the matchup looming Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers at Acrisure Stadium. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson wonder if the Steelers' offensive coordinator Arthur Smith would be able to handle the development of a freshly-drafted QB based on his reputation from his previous two NFL jobs.

In this hour, Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson wonder how impactful Steelers' offensive coordinator Arthur Smith could be with a rookie QB, and and they discuss what it would look like if he decided to take another job next season. Also, will the Steelers be able to stop the Green Bay Packers' running game? October 22, 2025, 7:00 Hour

Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Gerry Dulac and Ray Fittipaldo report from the Steelers facility after Tuesday's practice leading up to the team's "Sunday Night Football" matchup with the Green Bay Packers. Can we expect reinforcements at wide receiver, with Calvin Austin III set to return after missing the last two games with a shoulder injury? How does that affect coordinator Arthur Smith's offensive game plan? Is Pat Freiermuth back to producing at a high level along with fellow tight ends Jonnu Smith, Darnell Washington and Connor Heyward? How is Aaron Rodgers continuing to play at such a high level at 41 years old? Can we expect the offense to keep humming with Jaylen Warren and DK Metcalf? And what adjustments can coordinator Teryl Austin make to get the defense led by T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward back on track? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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 job offensive coordinator Arthur Smith has done with quarterbacks in his tenure with the team. Both Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, who were successes as Steelers quarterbacks in 2024, have now been benched by their new teams, with Fields set down by the New York Jets on Sunday despite a $30 million guaranteed contract. Fields had the best season of his career with Smith and the Steelers, turned that into a big payday, and has now seemingly turned back into a pumpkin. Wilson was better in Pittsburgh than he had been with the Denver Broncos, but was worse with the New York Giants before his benching for Jaxson Dart. Aaron Rodgers has also had a career resurgence with Pittsburgh and under Smith. Ryan Tannehill had the best seasons of his 11-year career when Smith was his OC with the Tennessee Titans. Smith has never developed a quarterback from draft pick to successful starter, but should his success with other players at the position give the Steelers faith in his ability to do so in 2026?

Host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise react LIVE to the Steelers' NFL Week 7 Thursday Night Football matchup with the AFC North rival Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium. Were Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Darnell Washington and others able to maintain their momentum in the passing game? How did Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu, Zach Frazier and the offensive line perform against the Bengals' pass rush? Were they able to clear running room for RBs Jaylen Warren, Kaleb Johnson and Kenneth Gainwell against a porous Bengals secondary? On the defensive side, how well was the secondary led by Joey Porter Jr., Jalen Ramsey and DeShon Elliott able to contain star Bengals receivers Ja'Marr Case and Tee Higgins? And how effective was the pass rush led by T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Nick Herbig, Alex Highsmith, Keeanu Benton and Derrick Harmon against Bengals QB Joe Flacco? Our duo tackles those questions, plus the coaching performance of Mike Tomlin and coordinators Arthur Smith and Teryl Asutin. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! In a clash of AFC North titans gone awry, the surging Pittsburgh Steelers (4-1) invade Paycor Stadium to face a reeling Cincinnati Bengals squad (2-4) on Thursday Night Football. What was once a marquee rivalry now feels like a tale of two trajectories: Pittsburgh's three-game win streak has vaulted them to the division lead, while Cincinnati's four straight losses—capped by a 27-18 defeat to Green Bay—have sparked desperation. Joe Burrow's toe injury sidelining him until December forced a midseason pivot, trading for veteran Joe Flacco from Cleveland. The 40-year-old gunslinger debuted last week with 219 yards and two scores, injecting life into an offense dormant under Jake Browning. Pittsburgh, meanwhile, rides Aaron Rodgers' renaissance. The 41-year-old maestro boasts a career-best 105.4 passer rating through five games, with 10 touchdowns and just three picks, slicing defenses for 1,021 yards. His rapport with DK Metcalf has been lethal—Metcalf's four straight TD catches include a scorching 80-yarder—exploiting yards after catch like no other. The Steelers' ground game, turbocharged by Arthur Smith's "Jumbo" packages featuring 290-pound TE Darnell Washington, has averaged 4.4 yards per carry against Cincy's porous 28th-ranked run D. Cincinnati counters with firepower: Ja'Marr Chase erupted for a late TD last outing, and Flacco's familiarity with Pittsburgh—he's 11-11 lifetime against them—could neutralize Mike Tomlin's schemes. Yet injuries loom large: Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson (hip) is questionable, thinning their pass rush (just 3.7% sack rate sans him), while Steelers miss WR Calvin Austin III (shoulder) and S Miles Killebrew (knee). Betting odds tilt toward Pittsburgh as 5.5-point road favorites (O/U 44.5), with sharp money sniffing Bengals value at +225 ML. This gerontocratic QB duel—the third in NFL history pitting 40+ starters—promises fireworks under the lights. Expect Metcalf to feast (Over 70.5 receiving yards) and Pittsburgh's D to force turnovers (Cincy leads the league with 11 giveaways). Steelers pull away late in a 27-20 thriller, solidifying North supremacy. But don't sleep on Flacco's upset magic—after all, these helmets hide Bengal stripes.

Steelers T Broderick Jones is a big conversation topic coming out of the game against the Browns, so Alex and I discuss his play and future outlook with the team now in Week 7. Alex and I go over the play of the Steelers' defense against the Browns and how the depth on that side of the football performed well overall after a few starters were pulled from the contest in the fourth quarter. I welcome Jay Morrison of Sports Illustrated back to the show, and he helps me get started with a preview of the Bengals-Steelers game. Morrison has covered the Bengals for many seasons, and nobody knows that team better than he does. I get his thoughts on several things related to Thursday's night game in Cincinnati.

ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – Aditi said she was ‘stunned' by Joe Flacco getting traded from the Browns to the Bengals because she will never understand helping a division rival in-season.

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.

October 10, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 35 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking briefly about the Thursday night game between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles and how it was a huge coming out party for both QB Jaxson Dart and RB Cam Skattebo on the main stage. Alex and I move on to discuss the Pittsburgh Steelers' injury report heading into Friday. We talk about Steelers CB Jalen Ramsey and WR Calvin Austin III both trying to return this week from their respective injuries. We also discuss what the early inactive list for the Sunday home game against the Cleveland Browns is shaping up to be. The Steelers brought in a few free agents for tryouts this past week, so Alex and I go over that list of players and the return of ILB Jacoby Windmon to the practice squad. On Thursday, we 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. Will Steelers OL Spencer Anderson factor into the receiving game on Sunday against the Browns? Alex and I go deep into trying to answer that question on this Friday. We also talk about the roles of Steelers outside linebackers Alex Highsmith and Nick Herbig on Sunday and if either have a shot at making huge plays against the Browns. Alex and I welcome Scott Petrak of The Chronicle-Telegram and Medina Gazette back to the show, and he helps us get started with a preview of the Steelers-Browns game. Petrak has covered the Browns for many seasons, and nobody knows that team better than he does. We get his thoughts on several things related to Sunday's game at Acrisure Stadium. Scott fills us in on the two trades that the Browns made this past week and if the loss of veteran QB Joe Flacco might impact the upcoming game against the Steelers from a preparation standpoint. We talk about the Browns on offense and defense and how Cleveland's rookie class seems to be impacting the team in a lot of positive ways so far in 2025. At the end of our talk with Petrak, he gives us his score prediction for the Steelers-Browns game. If not already doing so, make sure to follow Scott on X/Twitter at @ScottPetrak and make sure to read his work here: https://www.brownszone.com After finishing with Petrak, Alex and I provide our own preview of the Steelers-Browns game. We break down what we are looking for out of each team on both sides of the football on Sunday at Acrisure stadium in Pittsburgh. Alex and I then give our picks against the spread for all of the Week 6 games in the NFL using the lines provided by show sponsor MyBookie.ag. We also give our score predictions for Steelers-Browns to end that segment. This 112-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted and we close out this show by answering a few questions we received via email from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. Today, Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and the Locked On Steelers podcast fills in for Zach, and he and Alan break down Arthur Smith's comments about the Steelers' offense, particualry the jumbo package, and how sustainable the team's usage of it will be going forward. The guys also talked about whether the team's skill position players will be upset by the lack of targets, whether that should factor into Omar Khan's trade deadline plans, and whether the team can find a more effective downfield passing game.  Let's go for another Steelers Afternoon Drive and discuss all this!

Hour 4 with Joe Starkey: Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith said the Steelers have a ton of catch and run players with their offense. Arthur Smith doesn't think Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell are prototypical running backs. Jeff thinks Alex Highsmith, Joey Porter Jr. and Jaylen Warren will play on Sunday.

Smith's Sayings – What did Arthur Smith say to the Steelers media earlier today? Steve Palazzolo from the 33rd Team joined the show. Steve broke down the Browns' trades over the last couple of days, which included moving Joe Flacco and swapping corners with Jacksonville. What was Steve's impression of the Dillon Gabriel debut? Steve thinks spreading out the Browns defense is the best play. What are some things the Browns do well? Steve is confused as to why Pat Freiermuth has been phased out of the Steelers offense. Steve doesn't think the Bengals got that much more dangerous with the acquisition of Flacco. If the Ravens start 1-5, Steve feels like the tide will finally be turned on the Steelers being the favorite in the division. Donny Football Debrief – The Browns are currently paying 8 QBs. They still owe Deshaun Watson $35.9M.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Brian Batko ponder Pat Freiermuth's lack of usage early this season. Is his lack of presence in the passing game a problem for OC Arthur Smith and QB Aaron Rodgers? Has it simply made more sense to get the ball to other targets including DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Jonnu Smith and Darnell Washington? And how much could his role in the offense change depending upon who the Steelers are playing in a given week? Do the Cleveland Browns in NFL Week 6 present a better matchup? Our duo tackles those questions, plus a flurry of AFC North trades this week, including Joe Flacco to the Bengals and Alohi Gilman to the Ravens in exchange for Odafe Oweh.

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 concept of a wham block, and how Arthur Smith and company might use that against the Cleveland Browns and Myles Garrett. Wham is a play that stems from the trap family of offensive plays, something that Chuck Noll's teams used a lot in the 1970s and 1980s. Could Smith and company break it out this week to help deal with a devastating Cleveland run defense? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hour 2 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: The guys make fun of Austin's fashion. The Bengals traded for Joe Flacco. Mark thinks the Ravens can get to 10 wins, but their defense is a mess and injured. Mark Kaboly thinks Browns-Steelers will go down to the wire. The Steelers run defense is going to be tested against a good Browns run game. He thinks this is Roman Wilson's opportunity.

October 3, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 32 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about Cleveland Browns rookie QB Sheduer Sanders going full mime in a recent interview ahead of his team's Sunday morning game in England against the Minnesota Vikings. The San Francisco 49ers beat the Los Angeles Rams Thursday night in an entertaining game that went into overtime and that leads to another rant by me on why there is no such thing as a trap game in the NFL. The Steelers brought in five defensive backs for tryouts a few days ago, so we make sure to go over that list of players. We also go over the latest information concerning Steelers injured WR Calvin Austin III heading into the weekend. A few more Steelers' coaches talked to the media since our Wednesday episode, so Alex and I go over some key talking points to come out of those sessions. Alex and I discuss the job that Steelers offensive line coach Pat Meyer has done so far this season and if the team should have gone in a different direction when Arthur Smith was hired to be the offensive coordinator in 2024. On the heels of the fine game that Steelers DT Keeanu Benton played on Sunday against the Vikings, Alex and I have a length conversation about his style of play and what he excels at. The Steelers haven't run a ton of offensive plays through the first four games of the 2025 regular season, so Alex and I expand on that topic for a little while. With the Steelers now on their bye week, Alex and I go over several main takeaways we have concerning the team on both offense and defense. We discuss the key components to the Steelers being 3-1 at their bye. We also discuss the relatively low usage of the team's tight ends on offense so far through the first four regular season games. With it being Friday, Alex and I make our picks against the spreads for all of the remaining Week 5 games in the NFL using the lines offered by MyBookie.ag, one of our show sponsors. This 98-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted, and we close things by answering a few emails that we recently received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Around 5 p.m., Post-Gazette columnist Paul Zeise will go live to talk about the Steelers at the bye week. Has Aaron Rodgers fully developed chemistry with his Steelerss teammates, especially DK Metcalf? How far can he take this offense as he gets more comfortable playing in Arthur Smith's system? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Hour 2 with Donny Football: Ray doesn't expect the Steelers to add a wide receiver at this point. "They like Calvin Austin as a No. 2 receiver." Jakobi Meyers for a mid-round pick would make some sense, but Ray thinks adding another big mouth to feed is difficult for Arthur Smith. This is a must win game for Pitt against a down Boston College team. Eli Holstein earns a C+ or C- from Stephen's report.

On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Ray Fittipaldo to react to the Steelers' NFL Week 4 victory against the Minnesota Vikings in Dublin, Ireland. Did coach Mike Tomlin's team establish its desired identity in stopping Jordan Mason and the Vikings running game; getting heave pressure on QB Carson Wentz with T.J. Watt, Nick Herbig, Keeanu Benton, Patrick Queen and others; and achieving success in the running game wit Kaleb Johnson and especially surprise starter Kenneth Gainwell, who filled in admirably for Jaylen Warren? Do we still need to see more from the passing game? Especially TEs Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith after Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf seemed to get their connection going on Sunday? And how will this team navigate injuries in the secondary to names like Jalen Ramsey and Joey Porter Jr.? Our duo tackles those questions, plus storylines to watch during the upcoming off week. Where can coordinators Arthur Smith and Teryl Austin make the biggest adjustments? Will the Ravens continue their early struggles? Or will they start making up ground on the Steelers in the AFC North after a brutal early-season schedule? And are the Colts and Jaguars emerging as threats in the AFC? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Poni praises Tomlin and Arthur Smith along with the players for executing. The Bills are the only team in the AFC with a better record than the Steelers. Poni says that this means Tomlin is doing a good coaching job. Mullsy disagrees with this take.

September 26, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 29 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the Thursday night game between the Arizona Cardinals and the Seattle Seahawks and how the new dynamic kickoff rules played into the ending of it. We discuss whether we like the new kickoff rules so far this season. Alex and I move on to discuss the Steelers' injury report heading into Friday. We talk about Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. and S DeShon Elliott trying to return this week from their respective injuries. We also discuss OLB Alex Highsmith not making the trip to Ireland because of his ankle injury. Will RB Trey Sermon once again be elevated from the practice squad on Saturday? Alex and I ponder that question early in this show as well. The Minnesota Vikings have a few key injuries this week that we are paying close attention to heading into Friday. They will be without their starting left guard this week as well. On Thursday, we 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. Alex and I welcome Ben Goessling of the Star Tribune back to the show, and he helps us get started with a preview of the Steelers-Vikings game. Goessling has covered the Vikings for many seasons, and nobody knows that team better than he does. We get his thoughts on several things related to Sunday's game at Croke Park in Dublin, Ireland, where he is currently stationed. At the end of our talk with Goessling, he gives us his score prediction for the Steelers-Vikings game.

September 19, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 26 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 for their Week 3 road game against the New England Patriots. Alex and I start by discussing the Steelers and Patriots' injury reports. We talk about Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. seemingly being doubtful for Sunday with his hamstring injury and how the status of rookie DT Derrick Harmon making his NFL debut against the Patriots seems questionable entering Friday. We also discuss the knee injury sustained this past week by backup OL Max Scharping and how he'll likely be headed to the Reserve/Injured list soon. Will the Steelers' new practice squad ILB Ja'Whaun Bentley be elevated on Saturday and then play against the Patriots on Sunday? We explain how that seems a little unlikely based on things that have been said this past week. The Patriots are looking to get CB Christian Gonzalez back from his hamstring injury this week so Alex and I discuss his status headed into Friday as well. On Thursday, we 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 discuss Austin being fired up about his defense giving up a duplicate explosive passing play for a touchdown in consecutive weeks. We also go over communication comments made by Austin on Thursday and a few other minor things that Smith had to say to the media during his weekly session.
