Ben Volin of the Boston Globe joins to weigh in on Bill Belichick being left off the first-ballot Hall of Fame, explaining that it's more about the cheating scandals than Belichick's relationship with the media. Volin breaks down how the Hall of Fame voting process works, why it would be outrageous for Robert Kraft to get in before Belichick, and suggests expanding the voter pool to prevent a few questionable ballots from swaying outcomes. The conversation then shifts to the Super Bowl, Drake Maye's concerning shoulder injury, and how the Patriots have quietly crushed free agency and the draft in recent years.

Hour 3 opens with Giannis-to-Miami trade talk before shifting to whether the Dolphins can engineer a Patriots-style turnaround despite a messy cap situation caused by what Joe calls “pouting extensions.” With Miami financially strapped, Joe says the rebuild must happen through the draft and expects the Dolphins to pursue Malik Willis given his ties to the new regime.

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.

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.

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.
