Does this game mean more to the Steelers? We know how much the trip means to the Rooney family and how much it would have meant to the late Dan Rooney. It seems like some players, Cam Heyward included, sounds like this game has some more juice. The guys think it also means a ton to Mike Tomlin, given how much it means for the family that hired him. Poni said he can't picture the Steelers coming out flat in this game.

The guys are at Studio B and Poni was late after being warned of that by Donny and Chris earlier today. So, we made fun of him for the first segment until he showed up around 2:12 pm.

Poni said he can't picture the Steelers coming out flat in this game. PG columnist Jason Mackey joined the show. Jason has been in Ireland all week, so he gave a lay of the land of what is going on. He told the guys about some of the local vernacular he's picking up. Jason thinks this game does mean a little bit more to the Steelers. Jason thinks the Rooney family would like for this to not be the last time the Steelers play in Dublin. Jason said it could be close to a 50/50 crowd even though the Steelers are the home team.

Cam Heyward and Hayden celebrate a big win over the Patriots before looking ahead to a historic showdown against the Vikings in Dublin, Ireland. Then, linebacker Nick Herbig joins the show to talk about his early success, learning from veterans, and, of course, the Herb Special... In this episode:

On the Tuesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey and insider Ray Fittipaldo gauge the Steelers' growth through three games. Is coach Mike Tomlin's defense improving, even if it's still giving up too many yards? How encouraged should we be that T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward produced like the stars they're supposed to be in NFL Week 3 against the New England Patriots? Is RB Jaylen Warren's elevated role in the offense a good thing? Do he and fellow RB Kenneth Gainwell have any chance for success behind a struggling offensive line that includes Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu? Have those guys shown progress themselves? And what did we learn about DBs Jaylen Ramsey and Jabrill Peppers in facing Drake Maye and the Patriots? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter & Ray Fittipaldo react to the NFL Week 3 victory against the New England Patriots. Should coach Mike Tomlin be encouraged that Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt, Nick Herbig, Jabrill Peppers, Cole Holcomb and Brandin Echols were able to generate five turnovers on defense? Or is it a concern that Patriots QB Drake Maye was still able to move the ball in between those big plays? Can this unit really rely on that amount of ball luck in subsequent weeks? Or does DC Teryl Austin still need to figure out how to limit opposing offenses better? Our duo tackles those questions, then gives thoughts on the offense as well. Does OC Arthur Smith need to consider passing more with Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith to open up running lanes for Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell? Or was the first drive evidence that this unit can run the ball if Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu and the offensive line are performing?
