On the Thursday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise to analyze reports that free agent CB Asante Samuel Jr. will visit the Steelers next week. Would GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin securing a deal with the veteran make up for their quiet NFL trade deadline? Or would it still be reasonable for fans to want to see more new faces beyond Kyle Dugger and Marquez Valdes-Scantling? What are the chances Sameul ever arrives here considering broad interest in him from teams around the league? If the Steelers miss out, will they regret not adding a CB next to Jalen Ramsey, Joey Porter Jr. and Darius Slay Jr.? And what should we make of reports saying Khan was close to completing a deal for Jakobi Meyers or another WR to pair with DK Metcalf as a weapon for Aaron Rodgers? Our duo tackles those questions and takes stock of the Steelers' place in the AFC pecking order. Were the wins against the Colts and Patriots flukes because of the many turnovers generated in those games? And what will it say about this team if it can win in NFL Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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 roller coaster of emotion that Steeler Nation has been riding the last two weeks. After consecutive losses to the Cincinnati Bengals and Green Bay Packers, the pitchforks and torches were out, with a large portion of the fanbase wanting to fire Mike Tomlin despite a 4-3 start that had the team in first place. Two days after a win over the Indianapolis Colts, the fanbase is now aflame that general manager Omar Khan had the audacity to stand pat with the very same squad the fanbase wanted to jettison, instead of going all in on winning a championship this season.  Alan breaks it down.

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Christopher Carter to react to the team's lack of moves at the NFL trade deadline. How good is GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin's roster as constituted? Can it win a playoff game? Beat top teams like Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs? Josh Allen and the Bills? Lamar Jackson and the Ravens? Should Khan have been more aggressive in adding a wide receiver for Aaron Rodgers to supplement DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson, Jonnu Smith, Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth? Or was the price for a guy like Jakobi Meyers too high for a team in the Steelers' position? And would it have been nice to add a DB to help Jalen Ramsey, Darius Slay Jr., Kyle Dugger and Joey Porter Jr. amid the secondary's intermittent struggles? Our duo tackles those questions, plus NFL draft options now that we know the team could have up to a dozen picks this coming spring. Should they try to build a deeper roster around names like Ohio Stat3e stars Carnell Tate or Caleb Downs? Or should they sell out to grab a QB like Alabama's Ty Simpson, Oregon's Dante Moore or Indiana's Fernando Mendoza? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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 remaining 12 picks in Omar Khan's stash for the 2026 NFL Draft. The Steelers passed on trading away picks at the 2025 NFL trade deadline on Tuesday, deciding they valued extra selections over adding depth at receiver or another position. So what is Khan planning to do with all those picks? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Steelers newest addition is in town and was at practice. Marquez Valdes-Scantling, an old friend of Aaron Rodgers, was chatting with the media today. MVS credited Rodgers for being the reason why he was in Pittsburgh even though Mike Tomlin simply called him a practice squad guy. MVS also sounds like a guy that will be in the lineup sooner rather than later and not just hanging out at practice. We also got news that Asante Samuel Jr. is visiting the Steelers next week. A reason the Steelers may not have traded a 4th round pick yesterday is due to the record Omar Khan has drafting in that round – which has yet to have a clear miss in 3 years. Are we also overrating those players a little bit? 93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. The guys went over the injury report with Jeff and he thinks Isaac Seumalo is one to watch this week with the ongoing pec injury. Could Andrus Peat see his first action with the Steelers? Jeff thinks Marquez Valdes-Scantling will be on the field the moment he is ready and isn't just a ‘warm body.' Jeff confirmed that Jakobi Meyers was on their radar, but the compensation was just a little too much. Jeff thinks there's a decent chance Asante Samuel Jr. signs here if he makes it to Wednesday as a free agent. Jeff sees a low-scoring game with the Steelers winning in LA. Judge Donny – Are the Penguins a playoff team?

Live around 5 p.m., Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise gives his thoughts on the Steelers' moves -- or lack thereof -- at the NFL trade deadline. Did GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin properly balance the team's present with its future? Especially with numerous extra NFL draft picks in hand with the event coming to Pittsburgh? Did they secure enough help for the struggling secondary around names like Jalen Ramsey, Joey Porter Jr., Kyle Dugger, Darius Slay Jr. and Brandin Echols? Does Aaron Rodgers now have enough pass-catching help alongside names like DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson, Darnell Washington, Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth? And how much can the acquisition of Marquez Valdes-Scantling bolster the group? Paul tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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 upcoming NFL trade deadline and what Steelers general manager Omar Khan has planned before the 4 p.m. deadline. Khan is certainly looking for a wide receiver, with several irons in the fire, and the name that seems most likely to end up on the Pittsburgh roster is Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers. What about other names at that position or other positions?. Alan breaks it dow Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Poni said he is upset at Omar Khan for doing nothing at the trade deadline. They made a move for Kyle Dugger last week, but no moves made today and nothing to improve the offense, other than Marquez Valdes-Scantling to the practice squad. Did Omar fail his test today? Do the Steelers overvalue the TE and RB usage in the pass game?

Live around 5 p.m., Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise ponders the Steelers' options ahead of the NFL trade deadline Tuesday. This show is presented by FanDuel. Should GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin be aggressive in making moves after their team took down one of the NFL's best in Week 9 against the Indianapolis Colts? Should they look to give QB Aaron Rodgers another weapon alongside DK Metcalf, Roman Wilson, Calvin Austin III, Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith or Darnell Washington? Or would another pass catcher not receive enough targets in OC Arthur Smith's offense to be worthwhile? And does this defense still need another DB next to Jalen Ramsey, Kyle Dugger, Darius Slay Jr. and Joey Porter Jr.? Or did the win against the Colts ease concern about the secondary? Paul tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

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 trade for veteran safety Kyle Dugger from the New England Patriots. Dugger comes to Pittsburgh after losing his staring job in New England. The trade price was extremely low, with Omar Khan just swapping day three picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, and the Patriots are paying most of his salary. So what makes a nearly free cast-off a good fit for the Steelers? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jeremy Fowler believes the Steelers will trade for wide receiver Jakobi Meyers. Mark hasn't heard that they will, but thinks Meyers would be a good option. The Patriots traded safety Kyle Dugger to the Steelers and Mark thinks it's a home run addition by Omar Khan to trade for a starting safety for nothing. Is Dugger a good safety?

Hour 2 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Jeremy Fowler believes the Steelers will trade for wide receiver Jakobi Meyers. Mark hasn't heard that they will, but thinks Meyers would be a good option. The Patriots traded safety Kyle Dugger to the Steelers and Mark thinks it's a home run addition by Omar Khan to trade for a starting safety for nothing. Doug Whaley said there is no substance in Mike Tomlin's press conference and no substance in the team's defense.

On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Noah Hiles welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze the offense's upside as the defense struggles. Can OC Arthur Smith's unit overcome the struggles of the defense to deliver wins? How much more can Smith get out of names like Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson, Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith, Darnell Washington, Jaylen Warren, Kenneth Gainwell and Kaleb Johnson? And how much pressure is on Omar Khan to trade for a true No. 2 receiver if offense is the unit that's going to carry coach Mike Tomlin's team to the NFL playoffs? Our duo tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

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 wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, and what he brings to the table. Valdes-Scantling is very familiar with Aaron Rodgers, having spent the first four years of his career with him with the Green Bay Packers, and that should make him able to hit the ground running in Pittsburgh, where the 6-foot-4 field-stretcher can provide something Pittsburgh has not had in its wide receivers room. Does that mean Omar Khan is done making additions to that group? Alan breaks it down.' Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On the Friday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise to ponder the Steelers' options at the NFL trade deadline amid struggles from the prospective rookie class of QBs in the NFL draft. Should coach Mike Tomlin and GM Omar Khan still be hoarding picks to select names like Drew Allar, Arch Manning, Garrett Nussmeier and Cade Klubnik, even as they've struggled to meet expectations? Or should they consider trading some picks for a proven wide receiver for QB Aaron Rodgers to complement his current pass catching options including DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin III, Roman Wilson, Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington? And if they do make a deal, do names like Jaylen Waddle of the Dolphins, Chris Olave of the Saints and Jakobi Meyers of the Raiders make sense? Our duo tackles those topics, plus Rodgers' future with the team past 2025. Could he have longevity within OC Arthur Smith's offense? Or could he wear thin as Russell Wilson did when the team hits the tougher portions of its schedule? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Live around 5 p.m., Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise gives his thoughts on the Steelers quarterback situation through the lens of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields struggling elsewhere, with Fields notably drawing criticism this week from his New York Jets owner, Woody Johnson. Do coach Mike Tomlin and general manager Omar Khan deserve more credit for zeroing in on Aaron Rodgers when he became available this offseason? Could Wilson or Fields have had similar success in Arthur Smith's offense with weapons like DK Metcalf, Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth around them? And will the ultimate outcome be any different with Rodgers than it might have been with Wilson or Fields in the form of an NFL playoffs victory? Paul tackles those topics and gives his thoughts on the matchup looming Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers at Acrisure Stadium. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko to analyze the early results from first-round NFL draft pick Derrick Harmon. Is he proving why he was worthy of being the team's first-round NFL draft pick, even over fellow standout rookies like the Giants' Jaxson Dart? How is his play opening up room for other members of the defense? Including names like T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward, Patrick Queen and Keeanu Benton? And how much room does he still have to grow as a rookie within coach Mike Tomlin's defense? Our duo tackles those questions, then ponders the team's situation at wide receiver next to DK Metcalf. Why was Roman Wilson mostly invisible in NFL Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns? Even with Calvin Austin III out of the lineup because of injury? Is it a simple question of matchups and OC Arthur Smith's preference for tight ends like Darnell Washington and Jonnu Smith? Or is Wilson falling short in some areas? Why hasn't Scotty Miller been able to make a strong training camp and preseason translate to regular season games? And could Omar Khan make a trade for a receiver to help QB Aaron Rodgers, following a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter on the topic? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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 game plan from the team's win over the Cleveland Browns is sustainable for when the AFC playoffs come around. The team sits alone atop the AFC North, and looks primed for a run into the playoffs, and Arthur Smith has done well to maximize the team's talent so far, but given the opportunity, Omar Khan should make a move to add a playmaker.

Alan Saunders and Zachary Smith discuss all things Pittsburgh Steelers. Today, Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and the Locked On Steelers podcast fills in for Zach, and he and Alan break down Arthur Smith's comments about the Steelers' offense, particualry the jumbo package, and how sustainable the team's usage of it will be going forward. The guys also talked about whether the team's skill position players will be upset by the lack of targets, whether that should factor into Omar Khan's trade deadline plans, and whether the team can find a more effective downfield passing game.  Let's go for another Steelers Afternoon Drive and discuss all this!

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 general manager Omar Khan will use his team's bye week to finally make a move at the wide receiver position. Pittsburgh spent most of the offseason with an obvious need at outside wide receiver after trading George Pickens to the Dallas Cowboys, and that need was exacerbated by the injury to Calvin Austin III on Sunday in Dublin, Ireland. Austin is expected to miss multiple weeks with his shoulder injury. So will this be the time Khan pulls the trigger on a trade, or is a smaller move more likely? 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 Steelers' compensatory draft pick situation after a season-ending injury for running back Najee Harris and the benching of quarterback Russell Wilson. General manager Omar Khan has been counting on having those four compensatory draft picks in order to move up for a quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft, but will that plan still work with Harris and Wilson not contributing to the cause?

Dorin thinks it's crushing for some WVU fans to have to live with 13-9 he genuinely feels bad. Mike Tomlin said Keeanu Benton has room for improvement. Omar Khan's first draft class of Broderick Jones, Joey Porter Jr., and Keeanu Benton has been a disappointment.

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 performance of wide receiver Calvin Austin III in the team's win over the New York Jets and whether that means Omar Khan should relax his search for a second outside wide receiver. Austin had a stellar game in the opener against the Jets, hauling in four of six targets for 70 yards and a touchdown. He also drew a crucial defensive pass interference call late in the game, and probably should have earned a second. So does that mean Khan and company should let up on the WR2 search, including recent rumors about Tyreek Hill? 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 a season prediction for the 2025 Pittsburgh Steelers. But first, we take a look at the big-picture thought process of the team that's trying to win now with great defense while also rebuilding its offense for the future, how those plans can run in parallel and where the duality might cause problems. Can the best defense on paper in the NFL turn into playoff success? Will the boxes Omar Khan and Andy Weidl checked in the draft stay checked, or will they need to backtrack and throw off the timeframe? All of that and more to be decided this season.

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 what would make for a successful 2025 season for the team. In the big picture, the Steelers are in the midst of a rebuild, as Omar Khan and Andy Weidl are undertaking a trenches-out rebuild of the squad that likely won't add its potential franchise quarterback until next spring. The Steelers hope the team's next Super Bowl-winning squad is dominated by the likes of Broderick Jones, Keeanu Benton, Derrick Harmon, Troy Fautanu, Zach Frazier, Mason McCormick and Yahya Black in the trenches. But the Steelers have also gone out of their way to try and compete in 2025, signing Aaron Rodgers and Darius Slay and trading for D.K. Metcalf, Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith in one of the most ambitious offseasons in team history. With the team so obviously attempting to get its playoff losing streak off its back, can a season that ends any other way be considered a success? 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 we're evaluating the quarterbacks in the 2026 NFL Draft class. The Pittsburgh scouts scattered the nation this weekend as Omar Khan seems dead-set on landing his team's next franchise quarterback in next year's draft class. His team looked at no fewer than a half-dozen potential first-round quarterbacks this week.  So what did they see and how should we evaluate the results? Alan breaks it down.

In this clip from the Thursday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette insider Christopher Carter to react to the team's roster decisions at the wide receiver position. Have GM Omar Khan and coach Mike Tomlin closed the door on a move for an outside WR2? With names like Amari Cooper and Marquez Valdes-Scantling off the market and Gabe Davis still not getting an offer despite multiple visits to the team? Are Roman Wilson, Calvin Austin III and others enough behind DK Metcalf? Especially in the event of injury? How much can OC Arthur Smith's offense really rely on tight ends like Jonnu Smith, Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington in the passing game? And can 41-year-old Aaron Rodgers effectively distribute the ball to all of those targets? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are one of many teams interested in a trade for Jakobi Meyers. Jarrett Bailey explains why Omar Khan needs to pull it off. Plus, 12 players were cut on Monday and Jarrett goes through each one.

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise weighs in on the hottest topics in Pittsburgh sports. Specifically, he gives his thoughts on a suggestion by ESPN's Bill Barnwell that the Steelers could trade for Indianapolis Colts QB Anthony Richardson after he lost a competition with Daniel Jones to start. Should GM Omar Khan really consider dealing for the 23-year-old, who's had mixed results so far, as a potential successor to Aaron Rodgers? Are internal options like Mason Rudolph, Skylar Thompson and Will Howard preferable? Or should Khan focus on the 2026 NFL draft in Pittsburgh, that figures to include talented rookie options like Arch Manning, Drew Allar, Nico Iamaleava, Cade Klubnik and Garrett Nussmeier?

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 upcoming cut down to 53-man rosters on Tuesday, and whether general manager Omar Khan might trade away some players instead of releasing them to the waiver wire. The team appears to have surpluses of NFL-caliber players at quarterback, kicker and punter, running back and along the defensive line. Can Khan work his magic again and bring in more draft capital, or even better, a wide receiver? Alan breaks it down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Bob thinks the Steelers could go into the season with the WR room as it is, but isn't ruling out Omar Khan making a move as roster cuts take place. Pomp said he wanted to see the combo of DK Metcalf and George Pickens this season, but it wasn't meant to be. Would Alec Pierce be a good fit in Pittsburgh? Bob speculated how much of the starters we would see tonight, including the potential first look at Jalen Ramsey in a Steelers uniform. Who is getting cut? Bob thinks Connor Heyward is on the bubble, but expects the team to find a spot for him. Bob talked about some of the intriguing battles that will conclude soon. Will Kaleb Johnson be on the field at the same time as the starting offensive line tonight? The guys asked Bob about preparation for the preseason games.

With multiple WR trades taking place in the last 24 hours – and a third if you go back 72 hours, should the Steelers be active in the market? A new name has risen up – Alec Pierce from the Colts. Pierce could be on his way out in a pretty crowded room in Indy. If it took a 4th round pick or a 4th round pick and a middling player, would you make the deal for the guy that led the league in yards per reception last season?

The guys had Jason react to the Bubba Chandler promotion and beginning his Major League career out of the bullpen. Jason described the reasoning behind letting Chandler pitch in a relief role before starting. Is there a sense that Andrew McCutchen is not a fan of Ben Cherington? Jason mentioned Cutch may not be doing himself any favors by ripping Bob Nutting a little bit. Do we think the decision has always been made on Cherington's future with about a month to go in the season? The guys asked Jason about some comments made by Tommy Pham off the cuff.

On the Tuesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette sports columnist welcomes insider Ray Fittipaldo to react to Cam Heyward's comments about his contract dispute with the Steelers. Did Heyward have valid critiques of dealing with GM Omar Khan's front office, a year after signing a contract extension? Why don't his comments seem to have helped his favorability among fans? And will he find a resolution that prevents him from missing regular season games? Later, the guys analyze the preseason victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars and what it tells us about the offense. Specifically, they discuss how valuable Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu can be if they're both healthy and playing well at tackle this season; the encouraging contributions of receivers including Roman Wilson and Scotty Miller; and the importance of quick throws from QBs Mason Rudolph, Skylar Thompson and, eventually, Aaron Rodgers. They also give their thoughts on the overall roster depth and small offseason improvements that may have been overshadowed by big moves for Rodgers, Jonnu Smith, DK Metcalf and Jalen Ramsey.
