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 a question about the cause of problem players like former Pittsburgh receiver George Pickens. Pickens was in the headlines again on Wednesday after bailing last-minute on a youth football camp in Pittsburgh that he had committed to running, despite his trade to the Dallas Cowboys. What causes players like Pickens to allow to continue to have attitude problems throughout their careers, and is it a rising problem? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

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 a question about a new NFL Draft trade trend that Omar Khan has jumped on. The Steelers' trade of George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys contains both a third-round pick in 2026 coming from Dallas to Pittsburgh, and a swap of 2027 NFL Draft picks, with the Cowboys' fifth-rounder coming to Pittsburgh in exchange for the Steelers' sixth-rounder. This type of trade is a relatively new trend around the NFL, but Khan has been a keen adopter. What are the benefits and why do NFL teams like this structure? Alan breaks it down.

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 putting to bed the incessant rumors connecting the Steelers to Miami Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey. Ramsey has been on the block for months without a deal coming to the forefront, and the Steelers have been repeatedly connected to him, despite the lack of an obvious fit or need. ESPN's Adam Schefter put those rumors to bed for good on Tuesday, saying it's unlikely that the Steelers will acquire the former All-Pro. Instead, it seems much more likely that Ramsey will head to the West Coast, where he'd prefer to play, and the Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams have more obvious fits for him in their depth charts.

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 whether the team will be looking for a new stadium when their least expires after the 2030 season. Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro told reporters on Sunday that the state does not think funding new stadiums for the Steelers (2031) and Philadelphia Eagles (2033) when their current leases expire should be a priority. Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie has been publicly noncommittal about whether the Eagles will pursue a new stadium when their lease expires. Steelers president Art Rooney II has said he expects his team to extend its lease and remain at Acrisure Stadium beyond 2023. Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

The pivotal moment in National Football League history that we shall explore today is the remarkable 1961 season of the Green Bay Packers, a year that heralded the inception of a formidable dynasty under the esteemed guidance of Vince Lombardi. Following a narrow defeat in the previous championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles, the Packers rebounded spectacularly, culminating in a resounding victory over the New York Giants with a score of 37 to 0. This victory not only secured their championship but also marked the dawn of Lombardi's legendary tenure as one of the greatest coaches in the annals of football. We shall delve into the strategies employed by the Packers, examining the contributions of key players such as Bart Starr and Jimmy Taylor, alongside a discussion of the defensive prowess that stifled the Giants' offense throughout the game. Join us as we engage with Bob Swick, a distinguished expert from Gridiron Grades magazine, to gain deeper insights into this historic season and its lasting impact on the NFL.Bob's Website Join us at the Pigskin Dispatch website and the Sports Jersey Dispatch to see even more Positive football news!

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 how the change from Russell Wilson to Aaron Rodgers will change the way offensive coordinator Arthur Smith goes about his business. The relationship between Smith and Wilson had famously deteriorated by the end of the 2024 season, with stories leaking in the media about Smith restricting his ability to make changes to plays at the line of scrimmage. Will things be different with Rodgers under center in 2025? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

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 whether the Steelers should pursue cornerback Jalen Ramsey as a trade option. The Miami Dolphins are trading Ramsey, the 30-year-old, seven-time Pro Bowler, in what is apparently a mutual decision. The Steelers are already set at outside corberback with Darius Slay and Joey Porter Jr. in the fold. They could use Ramsey as an option in the slot, where he would certainly be an upgrade over Beanie Bishop. But he is due $21.1 million over the rest of the 2025 season -- a hefty sum for any cornerback, let alone one playing in the slot -- and it's unlikely that a move to a more phyiscally demanding position at 30 years old would be the thing that would please the disgruntled Dolphins corner.

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 a question about trading for cash or cap space in the NFL.Unlike baseball, where it's relatively common, you can't trade for cash in an NFL trade. You also can't trade for salary cap space in the NFL, which is much more valuable than cash. But there are ways for teams to make financial considerations in the midst of a trade.Alan breaks it down.

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 signing of strong safety DeShon Elliott to a two-year contract extension on Monday, and whether general manager Omar Khan made a good deal. Elliott has agreed to a two-year contract extension with $12.5 million in new money, which will make him just the 30th-highest-paid safety in the NFL, despite a strong season with the Steelers in 2024.

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 how the three weeks of spring practices have set up 53-man roster battles to watch during training camp.  The Steelers just went through two weeks of OTAs and one week of mandatory minicamp, and now have five weeks off before the start of training camp 2025 at St. Vincent College. But the roster battles that will take place in the foothills of Latrobe have already begun to be identifiable, thanks to the performances this spring --or lack thereof. Alan breaks it down.

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 how veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers looked at the team's three-day mandatory minicamp, which wrapped up on Thursday. Rodgers signed with the Steelers two weeks into the three-week offseason period, missing the first two weeks of optional OTAs before coming to town and signing for the mandatory minicamp. Rodgers didn't do much this week, with head coach Mike Tomlin choosing to hold him out of team periods while he gets up to speed with the offense. But we did get to see Rodgers throw this week, and even at 41 years old, one of the most talented quarterbacks in NFL history can still rip it. Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

A pivotal moment in the annals of the National Football League is encapsulated within the 1958 Championship Game, an event that would forever alter the trajectory of professional football in America. This episode delves into the historical context surrounding this legendary match, known as the 'greatest game ever played,' where the Baltimore Colts faced off against the New York Giants. We explore the evolution of the NFL during the late 1950s, a period marked by a transition from a league dominated by defensive strategies to one that began to embrace the artistry of the passing game, epitomized by the remarkable talents of quarterback Johnny Unitas. The discussion further illuminates the dynamics between the competing franchises, highlighting the Colts' emergence as a formidable force in a league that had previously been overshadowed by teams such as the Cleveland Browns and the Detroit Lions. I take the listener through the nuances of the Colts' journey, their underdog status, and the profound impact of the game on the NFL's popularity, setting the stage for the modern era of football that we know today.

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 how much of a hurry Omar Khan should be in when it comes to making an addition to his wide receivers room. The Steelers have reportedly not been aggressive in making offers on the few receivers that are available. Should Khan be in a hurry to make a move, or is he better off being patient and waiting until closer to cut-down day? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, it's what the objectives are and aren't for the Steelers in their three-day mandatory minicamp. Minicamp used to be about a mid-offseason check-in between the team and the players to see how far from condition they'd be entraining training camp. Now, it's all about learning for the newest players, expanding roles and opportunities for some returners, and pretty much a waste of time for elite veterans. Alan breaks it down.

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 whether or not they should sign free agent wide receiver Gabe Davis. Davis is taking a visit to UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on Thursday, and the big question will be his health. He played through a knee injury last season before shutting it down and was expected to have surgery on his meniscus -- a minor procedure. But Davis was released by the Jaguars with a failed physical designation. He's taken two previous free agent visits and left without a contract. So the big question is whether or not Davis is healthy enough to pass a physical. But if he is, should the Steelers sign him?

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 how presumptive starting quarterback Mason Rudolph has looked so far at OTAs. It's a reasonable question, with the quarterback returning to the Black and Gold after one year way in Tennessee, but coming to a new offensive scheme under Arthur Smith. But when talking about a player with as much NFL experience as Rudolph, especially one whose biggest issues in live NFL game-play have come when under the kind of pressure and duress that simply won't be replicated in the practice setting of OTAs, well his performance at UPMC Rooney Sports Complex doesn't really mean that much.

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.

As the calendar turns to June, the Steelers are not realistic Super Bowl contenders, with +4600 odds, according to Fan Duel Sportsbook on Tuesday morning. The lack of talent at the quarterback and wide receiver positions are chief among the reasons they're considered longshots. Is that what's holding Rodgers back from signing up? Alan breaks it down.

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 when we should expect Omar Khan to make a move at receiver. The Steelers have been calling all around the NFL in an obvious attempt to upgrade their wide receiver position, after trading George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys. Khan has been in touch with at least the Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints, Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- and almost certainly a lot more than that.

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 whether the 2025 season is make or break for cornerback Joey Porter Jr. Porter has had a solid first two seasons as the Steelers' starting cornerback, and there's plenty of reason to be optimistic about the player that he's already become. But there's also nothing physically stopping him from being one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL. With his rookie contract set to expire after the 2026 season, this year will be the last chance for Porter to put down tape that he will get paid on.

IRVIN MUCHNICK is author, most recently, of CONCUSSION INC: The End of Football As We Know It — his third book. He is a widely published journalist whose work has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, Sports Illustrated, People, and many other major magazines and newspapers. He has been interviewed on forums as diverse as Fox News' O'Reilly Factor and National Public Radio's Fresh Air with Terry Gross.In 2007, Irv published WRESTLING BABYLON: Piledriving Tales of Drugs, Sex, Death, and Scandal – a collection of his writings on pro wrestling behind the scenes. Soon thereafter, the sensational double murder/suicide of World Wrestling Entertainment's Chris Benoit brought WRESTLING BABYLON to the attention of Congressional investigators and led to the true-crime book CHRIS & NANCY: The True Story of the Benoit Murder-Suicide and Pro Wrestling's Cocktail of Death, published in 2009. Irv's books and blog writings moved to the center of scrutiny of WWE co-founder and former chief executive Linda McMahon's unsuccessful 2010 U.S. Senate candidacy in Connecticut on the Republican ticket.Over the last four years, Irv's work has helped elevate the story of widespread traumatic brain injury and its consequences for National Football League players and other professional and amateur athletes. His reporting has identified Dr. Joseph Maroon – medical director of WWE, team neurosurgeon for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and a widely quoted NFL consultant – as being among the key figures in manipulating research that was slow to identify and take seriously evidence of chronic traumatic encephalopathy. In the process, the $10-billion-a-year pro football industry was protected and NFL-affiliated doctors profited. The newest developments, including the suicide of retired player and NFL Players Association leader Dave Duerson, and the bargaining impasse between the NFL and the NFLPA, have increased public interest not just in the science of head injuries but also in how it is marketed by America's most popular sport, from the NFL level all the way down to the peewee leagues.Irvin Muchnick, who was assistant director of the National Writers Union from 1994 to 1997 and later a copyright litigation consultant, also is lead respondent of the landmark 2010 Supreme Court case Reed Elsevier v.

Today, it's the leadership of president Art Rooney II. Rooney is a behind-the-scenes presence for the most part, letting general manager Omar Khan and head coach Mike Tomlin do most to the talking for the team, but he's still an integral part of the team's decision-making process.

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 offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, and his ability to mentor the team's next quarterback. The Steelers have a plan to trade up to draft a quarterback in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, finally addressing the position after several missteps in the aftermath of the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger. But is Smith the right guy for the job to develop a rookie quarterback? It's not anything he's ever done before in his two seasons as Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator and three as Atlanta Falcons head coach, but there are some reasons to think that Smith will be capable of molding a talented passer, especially his success in resurrecting the careers of Ryan Tannehill and Justin Fields. So can Smith be the Steelers' quarterback whisperer? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

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 how new wide receiver DK Metcalf will handle being the top dog -- and maybe the only real threat at outside receiver. Metcalf has always been part of a deep group of wide receivers with the Seattle Seahawks, splitting targets with Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba the last two seasons. With Pittsburgh right now, he looks like he's the whole show, as the Steelers appear to once again be set to enter the season with just one solid option at outside receiver. Veteran Robert Woods, special teamer Ben Skowronek and undrafted rookie Roc Taylor appear to be the best options to help ease the pressure on Metcalf at this point -- not exactly a threatening list. So how will Metcalf handle the pressure? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

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 how the pursuit of Aaron Rodgers fits into the Steelers' big-picture offseason plans. The Steelers came into the offseason without an answer at the quarterback position, which is largely what has held the team back compared to the best of the AFC over the last few season. After an early survey of the landscape, Steelers general manager Omar Khan correctly assessed that there was not a long-term franchise quarterback available to the team this offseason. So Khan turned to the future, using the team's rare situation with departing free agents to line up a haul of compensatory picks that will give Khan the ammunition he needs to trade up for a quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft. So why the pursuit of Rodgers? Because the team is still trying to win. They were a good team in 2024, and had a great defense. They can probably be that or better with slightly better quarterback play in 2025, and while Rodgers is certainly not a long-term answer, he could possibly provide that for one season. The entire reason the team was selective about how they spent their free agent money this offseason was to maximize those 2026 comp picks and ensure that they'll be able to get the quarterback they want in 2026, no matter what happens on the field this year, and once that process was put in place, they're just trying to put the best team on the field they can for 2025.

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 Steelers interest in a trade for New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave. The Steelers have checked in with the Saints about Olave, as they have done with the Green Bay Packers and likely other teams after trading George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys earlier this offseason. Such a move does not seem imminent or likely to materialize at this point, and probably doesn't make any sense for the Saints. The Steelers have an obvious need to fill, and will likely be connected to many players in pursuit of a second wide receiver this offseason. Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.
