Host Adam Bittner and Post-Gazette Steelers insider Christopher Carter react to the team's picks on Day 3 of the NFL draft. -How can fourth-round pick Jack Sawyer add to the already deep EDGE group that includes T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith and Nick Herbig? -Does the defensive line now have the necessary depth to succeed now that fifth-round pick Yahya Black has joined first-round pick Derrick Harmon and veterans Cam Heyward and Keeanu Benton? -What will sixth-rounder Will Howard offer the QB room, which currently includes Mason Rudolph and may still sign Aaron Rodgers? -Will seventh-rounders Carson Bruener and Donte Kent make contributions? Or are they likely depth pieces? Our duo tackles those questions, plus reacts to Shedeur Sanders heading to Cleveland to join a crowded QB group that already includes Joe Flacco, Dillon Gabriel, Deshaun Watson and former Steelers QB Kenny Pickett.

How much credit does he deserve for adding contributors including Joey Porter Jr., Zach Frazier, Keeanu Benton, Payton Wilson and Nick Herbig. Can first-round picks Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu still emerge as difference makers? And do the draft classes rely on them to be considered successes?

On the Monday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Christopher Carter welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to react to the team's NFL Week 11 victory against the Baltimore Ravens. How much credit do coach Mike Tomlin and DC Teryl Austin deserve for their gameplan to stop Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry? Why did the defense led by T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward and Minkah Fitzpatrick execute so well? And how can names like Patrick Queen, Payton Wilson and Nick Herbig build on forcing important turnovers? Our duo tackles those questions and more. Including: Was the offense's performance underrated? From Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren playing well in the running game to Russell Wilson making big throws to Darnell Washington and others late? And can the Steelers contend with Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs or Josh Allen and the Bills for the No. 1 seed in the AFC?

How much credit do Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren deserve for solid work in the running game? And how are the Steelers now positioned in the AFC North race moving forward?

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 Steelers will replace Alex Highsmith at right outside linebacker. Highsmith is expected to miss at least the next two games with a left ankle sprain suffered in Sunday's win over the Washington Commanders. The Steelers have two obvious choices to replace Highsmith opposite T.J. Watt in the starting lineup: Preston Smith and Nick Herbig. But neither will be a one-to-one replacement. Smith has been playing a part-time role in Green Bay, and even if the Steelers double his snap count from his first game with the team against the Commanders, that would still fall short of Highsmith's usual role. Herbig has filled in for Highsmith in the past, but he is coming off a hamstring injury himself and the Steelers will likely want to bring him along slowly in his return to the game. With both Smith and Herbig likely playing a limited role, Jeremiah Moon could see some playing time against his former team as well. Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices.

"Bleav in Steelers" host Mark Bergin is joined by "Bleav in Ravens" host Matt Trigger to discuss the Pittsburgh Steelers' Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens. The guys discussed how the Steelers have dominated the recent rivalry, winning seven of the last eight matchups. The Steelers have been Lamar Jackson's kryptonite. Jackson has a 2-4 record against Pittsburgh. They also talked about Russell Wilson's success in his first three games with the Steelers, and whether the team should offer him a lucrative contract extension in the offseason. Sunday will mark the first time Diontae Johnson will go against the Steelers, his former team. The Steelers will be without edge rusher Alex Highsmith due to an ankle injury. They could get Nick Herbig back from a hamstring injury. Newly acquired edge rusher Preston Smith is also expected to get reps. Meanwhile, Baltimore brings a potent offense but faces challenges on defense, allowing the most passing yards per game in the NFL. Can the Ravens' high-scoring attack overcome the Steelers' second-half dominance, where they've outscored opponents 135-55?

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' curious-at-first trade deadline acquisition of outside linebacker Preston Smith. Smith was not a player that had been rumored or connected to the Steelers leading up to the trade deadline, and outside linebacker did not seem like one of the team's biggest needs, especially with Nick Herbig nearing his return from a hamstring injury. But the Smith trade shows what blueprint the Steelers are following on the defensive line, and that influence, from Andy Weidl, has won a Super Bowl once before. Alan breaks down.

October 7, 2024 - Season 15, Episode 35 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers losing to the Dallas Cowboys at home Sunday night to move to 3-2 on the 2024 season. While the Steelers were just one play at the end of the Sunday night game from notching their fourth win, we wonder what the rest of the talk would have been on this Monday about the entire contest had they actually escaped with the victory. Alex and I get right after it and get heavy into our breakdown of the Steelers' 20-17 home loss to the Cowboys. We start on the offensive side of the football for the Steelers and discuss their game plan, the play of QB Justin Fields, big and negative plays, the play of the offensive line, and much more. We talk about lack of explosive plays, the limited snap counts of WR George Pickens and what HC Mike Tomlin said about that after the game. We also talk about Fields being asked to explain the identity of the offense after the game. Will the Steelers switch from Fields to QB Russell Wilson as the team's starter? We go over why we would listen to an argument for Wilson to start but wonder if anyone could really make a strong and compelling one based on several factors. After thoroughly breaking down the offense, Alex and I move on to do the same with the defense. We go over how that unit really let the team down again against the Cowboys and specifically on third downs in weighty moments. We also talk about continued miscommunications on defense, the play of outside linebackers T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig, the three takeaways and much more on that side of the football. We also talk about a few things related to special teams from the Sunday night game against the Cowboys and go over the pregame inactive list, the Saturday elevations from the practice squad, and the list of injured players coming out of the loss. This 77-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted, and we close things by answering a few emails that we recently received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

September 27, 2024 - Season 15, Episode 31 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers as they continue to prepare for their Week 4 Sunday road game against the Indianapolis Colts. We go over the Steelers' Thursday injury report and how important Friday will be for RB Jaylen Warren, who is currently dealing with a knee injury. We go over possible elevations from the team's practice squad on Saturday and what the early Sunday inactive list is looking like heading into Friday. Might rookie WR Roman Wilson not make his NFL debut on Sunday? We discuss that topic. On Thursday, we once again heard from two of the Steelers' coordinators, Arthur Smith and Teryl Austin. As usual, Alex and I recap the few main talking points top come out of those media sessions. We go over why Sunday is a big game for OLB Nick Herbig and if he might see his special teams snaps reduced a little against the Colts with him needing to play a larger number of snaps on defense with OLB Alex Highsmith sidelined with his groin injury. Can the Steelers get their running game going earlier on Sunday against the Colts? What about QB Justin Fields being used more on the ground as well? We address those two key questions ahead of Sunday's game against the Colts. Alex and I welcome Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star back to the show on Friday, and he helps us get started with a preview of the Steelers' road game against the Colts. Atkins has covered the Colts for quite some time and that means he has a great pulse on the team. We go over the play of Colts rookie QB Anthony Richardson so far this season with Nate as part of this interview. At the end of our talk with Atkins, he gives us his score prediction for the game between the Steelers and the Colts.

We break down what we are looking for out of both teams on both sides of the football. Alex and I then give our picks against the spread for all of the Week 4 NFL games. We also give our score predictions for Steelers-Colts to end that segment.
