Ben Roethlisberger wanted Pat Freiermuth to go down and burn the clock instead of scoring a long touchdown. The Steelers defense couldn't stop anyone. They needed a touchdown and it's hard to take that chance. Ben was critical of the Steelers defense, and specifically the secondary. Ben doesn't think the Steelers need another receiver.

Hour 3 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Ben Roethlisberger wanted Pat Freiermuth to go down and burn the clock instead of scoring a long touchdown.

On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Noah Hiles welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to talk about Aaron Rodgers as he prepares to face his former team this week. Is the veteran QB ready for the challenge of taking down the Green Bay Packers in NFL Week 8 at Acrisure Stadium? What will he have to say about his first game as a Packers opponent? Will his comments be similar or different than they were in the lead-up to the NFL Week 1 matchup with the New York Jets, who cut him this offseason? And how will others including coach Mike Tomlin and players like DK Metcalf, T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Jalen Ramsey and Patrick Queen approach the situation? Our duo tackles those questions, then tight end usage within OC Arthur Smith's offense. How can names like Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith and Darnell Washington repeat their NFL Week 7 success against the Cincinnati Bengals? And can Rodgers continue to get the ball to Freiermuth in particular for big numbers in the absence of serious WR2 options behind DK Metcalf? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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?

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.

Hour 4 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Mike Tomlin called out Browns general manager Andrew Berry for trading Joe Flacco. Tomlin said Berry must be smarter than them in Pittsburgh. Kevin Stefanski admitted he had no idea Flacco was being traded. Bob thinks Tomlin might be trying to stick up for Stefanski. It's strange and people wonder if this means the Browns will be worse than Cincinnati. The Steelers field was poor at Acrisure Sunday.

Nick thinks there isn't a concrete plan for Pat Freiermuth. There is more of a plan for Jonnu Smith and Darnell Washington. Nick doesn't think there's tension between Freiermuth and Aaron Rodgers, but there's not much of a connection. Mike Tomlin took a shot at Andrew Berry in Cleveland for trading Joe Flacco to the Bengals.

Hour 2 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Nick thinks there isn't a concrete plan for Pat Freiermuth. There is more of a plan for Jonnu Smith and Darnell Washington. Mike Tomlin took a shot at Andrew Berry in Cleveland for trading Joe Flacco to the Bengals. Top quarterback prospects in 2026 NFL Draft. Penn State fired James Franklin and Front Office Sports has learned that if Franklin gets a new job, the money can offset from what they owe him.

Mike Tomlin called out Browns general manager Andrew Berry for trading Joe Flacco. Tomlin said Berry must be smarter than them in Pittsburgh. Bob thinks Tomlin might be trying to stick up for Kevin Stefanski. Tomlin disagrees with Will Graves that the environment hasn't been great for receivers looking to be more involved in the offense.

Hour 3 with Joe Starkey: The Mike Tomlin Press Conference. Mike Tomlin's thoughts before the Steelers play the Bengals on a short week on Thursday Night Football. What do you do with Pat Freiermuth? Tomlin isn't concerned and said Freiermuth's time will come. Darnell Washington has improved as a pass catcher.

Tomlin took a shot at Brian's question! What do you do with Pat Freiermuth? Tomlin isn't concerned and said Freiermuth's time will come. Darnell Washington has improved as a pass catcher. The first play of the game was stunning!

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson discuss the impact of TE Darnell Washington since he's been playing regularly for the Steelers, and they discuss what this development may mean for the usage or overall future of TE Pat Freiermuth.

Pat Freiermuth is becoming less involved in the pass game. Darnell Washington has been a good blocker but taken away Freiermuth's snap counts. The Steelers ran the tush with Connor Heyward and worked pretty well. Jalen Ramsey brings a toughness to the defense and an attitude they need.

In this hour, Adam Crowley, Dorin Dickerson and Pat Bostick wonder why the Steelers decided to give TE Pat Freiermuth more money if they weren't going to give him the majority of playing time. Also, is Drew Allar a bad QB or is Penn State Football setting up its players for failure? And another edition of QUIZ CALLAS! October 9, 2025, 8:00 Hour

What is going on with Pat Freiermuth? The Steelers paid the TE last offseason and now he is being phased out of the team's offense. He's roughly an $11M cap hit, but is on-pace to catch 0 TD this season and catch about 30 passes. Should they use Pat in a trade? Will we see him in the offense more going forward? The guys pointed out the usage of the other TEs in the offense and wondered where Pat really fits in right now.

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.

The guys pointed out the usage of the other TEs in the offense and wondered where Pat really fits in right now. Is there a Pitt-Penn State element to why Pat Freiermuth gets more hate than other players? Does he get extra hate for not being Heath Miller? The money is another big part of it. Pirates insider Jason Mackey from the PG joined the show. Jason is not confident the Pirates will hand out a multi-year free agent deal, which they haven't done in nearly a decade. He expects the Pirates moves to be in trade form, like a Mitch Keller deal or something else with their young pitchers. Jason said the Pirates still probably have some shame in the Tyler Glasnow trade, even though it was under the last regime. Jason doesn't expect Tommy Pham or Isaiah Kiner-Falefa will be in Pittsburgh next season. Jason wouldn't be surprised if the Pirates ‘just run it back with a lot of what they had this past year.'

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.

Hour 4 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Jake Browning's time as a starter in Cincinnati is over and after trading for Joe Flacco, will start on Sunday. Why has Pat Freiermuth disappeared in the offense? Aaron Rodgers is our Steelers MVP so far. The Steelers LVP for Joe is Freiermuth. Freiermuth only played 15 snaps against the Vikings, but Bob thinks he will play more. Bob's pick is Roman Wilson. Joe is interested to watch Keeanu Benton. 

Jake Browning's time as a starter in Cincinnati is over and after trading for Joe Flacco, will start on Sunday. Why has Pat Freiermuth disappeared in the offense? Freiermuth and Aaron Rodgers started talking before Rodgers got here and tried to build an offseason relationship. Brian thinks Jaylen Warren will still receive the bulk of carries when back from injury.

Aaron Rodgers is our Steelers MVP so far. The Steelers LVP for Joe is Freiermuth. Freiermuth only played 15 snaps against the Vikings, but Bob thinks he will play more. Bob's pick is Roman Wilson. Joe is interested to watch Keeanu Benton.
