Podcasts about cam heyward

Cam Heyward remembers facing Geno Smith in his first NFL start, and shares his pregame playlist. Gene Steratore can't afford to forget his contacts again after flubbing a call in a college basketball game, and Billy Gardell is jealous of his son's expeditions around San Francisco - getting cheeseballs and doing laundry, ah the glory days. Plus, Charlie Batch on why he would hold off on inserting Zach Banner into the starting lineup on Sunday night vs Seattle.

The offensive line gelled giving Big Ben a leg up in a game where we could finally see the consistent, persistent application of the Matt Canada offense. The defense came out and was overwhelming to start the game.Hit us up on Twitter at @Steelersoutpost Shoot us an email at Steelersoutpost@gmail.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We ask Jeff what his best understanding is of the Steelers opinions on Mason Rudolph right now.  Jeff says it's "meh" and that they still just view him as Ben's backup.  That unfortunately doesn't mean that they've ruled him out as a potential replacement next year.  Even if Ben throws two or three picks against the Broncos and looks bad, Jeff says he doesn't think Ben will get benched.

The Steelers give us hope by scoring on the opening drive for the first time in 11 games, only to revert to form.There were glimpse of Old Ben, but between his porous protection up front and his physical ossification, the pace and success faded quickly.Hit us up on Twitter at @Steelersoutpost Shoot us an email at Steelersoutpost@gmail.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Gene Steratore admits Joe Haden was on-side, plus the mayhem that ensues in Gene's studio on Sunday cutting from game to game. Cam Heyward recounts the weekly defensive goals dating back to the Dick LeBeau days, Charlie Batch wants more protection for Ben, plus recapping last night's Stones show and more.

A-Rod and Big Ben haven't played each other since Super Bowl XLV, a decade ago. In the two regular season contests featuring the Packers vs Steelers since then, Rodgers was out with separate collarbone injuries. Now, coming off an exciting win in San Francisco that will go down as one of the greats of Rodgers' career, the banged-up Packers look to put away the even more banged-up Steelers at home. J.J. and Gil break down this matchup featuring two future Hall-of-Famers, normally ferocious pass rushes that are depleted by injury, and two incredibly banged-up and unrecognizable offensive lines. The guys give their keys to victory, matchups to monitor, and assess the tall task of beating the likes of TJ Watt, Cam Heyward, Joe Haden, Joe Schobert, Devin Bush, Melvin Ingram, Terrell Edmunds, Minkah Fitzpatrick, Juju Smith-Schuster, Chase Claypool, Najee Harris, Diontae Johnson, and naturally Big Ben Roethlisberger. On No Huddle Radio, hosts J.J. Lahey and Gil Martin give you in-depth analysis of what's happening with the Green Bay Packers. Get the latest news, injury updates and preview the next game with key matchups to look for and find out why we think the Pack will win or lose.

We love talking football and can't wait to hear from you!

All facets of the Steelers game fell apart under a barrage of injuries and subpar play, especially from the offensive line, but worse - the team seemed to visibly give up as the lead became insurmountable, culminating in three straight dropped passes to end the game.Hit us up on Twitter at @Steelersoutpost Shoot us an email at Steelersoutpost@gmail.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Gene Steratore thinks Sunday's crew made a vital mistake that changed the pace of the game at Heinz Field, and Cam Heyward agrees.
