January 9, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 75 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the latest news concerning the Pittsburgh Steelers as they prepare to play the Houston Texans on Monday night in a home Wild Card game. Alex and I discuss the recent practice squad move made by the Steelers in addition to the team's injury report that was released on Thursday. We also go over the injury situation with the Texans as of Thursday. Steelers OC Arthur Smith will interview with the Tennessee Titans for their open head coaching job, so Alex and I make sure to address that news thoroughly. Is Smith prime head coach material right now? Will he ultimately land a second head coaching job this offseason? We attempt to answer those questions in this show. We also address some potential successors to Smith should he wind out being hired away from the Steelers this offseason. Might Steelers S DeShon Elliott be able to return from his injury should the team advance deeper into the playoffs? We go over the possibility of that happening and the latest Instagram post made by Elliott. How important is Steelers QB Aaron Rosdgers to the team heading into the playoffs and how much of an advantage will he having played the Texans last season as a member of the New York Jets matter come Monday night? We address that question and go over a few things Rodgers said on Thursday to the media. On Thursday, we once again heard from two of the Steelers' coordinators, Arthur Smith and Teryl Austin, so Alex and I recap the main talking points to come out of those media sessions. There's not a lot to chew on from those two once again this week, but we tackle the most notable comments from both, ahead of the Monday night game against the Texans. Steelers HC Mike Tomlin was on The Rich Eisen Show on Wednesday, so Alex and I go over the key things he had to say during that interview. Alex and I then give our picks against the spread for all of the NFL Wild Card NFL games provided by show sponsor MyBookie.ag. We, however, won't be picking the Steelers-Texans game until our Monday show. This 111-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted above and we end this episode by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Hour 1 with Joe Starkey: Joe Starkey is all aboard the Steelers train going into the playoffs. This is a different team than it has been the last five years. aron Rodgers is very comfortable in the Steelers offense and calling his own plays at the line. Aaron Rodgers has been playing very well.
Joe Starkey is all aboard the Steelers train going into the playoffs. This is a different team than it has been the last five years. Rodgers is very comfortable in the Steelers offense and calling his own plays at the line. The throws to Pat Freiermuth and Adam Thielen in stride were impressive, even more so for an older quarterback.
Aaron Rodgers has been playing very well. The Texans have a great defense and the Steelers need a good gameplan. Rodgers has not thrown a pick since November 9. We believe the Steelers can beat the Texans and potentially make a run.
Things are different for the Steelers with the circumstances. They're at home, not playing an elite quarterback, and have a guy in Aaron Rodgers that gives them a solid chance Monday. Will this be a game the Steelers are reminded they don't have a young quarterback. Mike Tomlin reiterated that the Steelers did nothing different against Myles Garrett.
This is who WE would want. Brian Batko is confident in Justin Herbert. Herbert has a good coach and Brian and Austin think he will break through. Joe has Aaron Rodgers 3rd! Brian trusts CJ Stroud and Trevor Lawrence more than Rodgers. We all think that Sean Payton is the best coach in the AFC that is in the playoffs!
Hour 3 with Joe Starkey: The Mike Tomlin Press Conference and our reaction 1-6-2026. Things are different for the Steelers with the circumstances. They're at home, not playing an elite quarterback, and have a guy in Aaron Rodgers that gives them a solid chance Monday. Brian Batko would not be rushing to extend Keeanu Benton and would prioritize an extension for Joey Porter Jr.
Mike Tomlin has a very good relationship with Aaron Rodgers and the two had a good moment at the end of the game. At midfield, Rodgers told Tomlin thank you for bringing him here. The Steelers are a better team because of Aaron Rodgers, and he needs to have a big game to be able to defeat the Houston Texans on Monday
In this hour, Adam Crowley discusses why the Steelers should prioritize bringing QB Aaron Rodgers back next season. Also, former Steeler Trai Essex comes on The Fan Hotline. January 6, 2026, 8:00 Hour

Sometimes the NFL is so good, so amazing, you would otherwise swear it's scripted. The Steelers and Ravens staged a classic in Game 272, with a double-twist at the end which left fans gobsmacked, and Rodgers still standing - at least for one more game. Czabe walks through the wreckage of an otherwise bleak Week 18 slate, full of statistical oddities and the first coach firing already on the board. Plus the odds to win it all, and the TV schedule for Super WildCard Weekend! Then ANDY POLLIN joins me with son JEREMY POLLIN to recap how glorious (and wet) it was going to the Rose Bowl to see Indiana stomp out Alabama. Is the SEC a ponzi scheme? What if Kurt Cignetti is like the Carrie Underwood of college coaches. Plus, the continued sad state of journalism and sports media. Czabe gets weather nerdy about the DC region's final 2025 numbers.

This is why Aaron Rodgers is here. There was a thought last year that Mike Tomlin wanted a running quarterback. Rodgers is a quarterback who can WIN. Dianna Russini reported that the Steelers had internal discussions about hiring Marcus Freeman. The Steelers have a golden opportunity!
Aaron Rodgers said after the game that it has been a “great year”, and that he is very excited to go back to the playoffs. He also did not answer when asked if he's ride into the sunset after this season. The guys think that Rodgers did a great job rebounding from a tough start to the game. If you're the Steelers, would you want Aaron Rodgers back next year? Have people enjoyed the Aaron Rodgers experience thus far? More callers weigh in. Donny Football Debrief – The Steelers won the division without Ben Roethlisberger for the first time since Tommy Maddox did it. Can Mullsy and Donny name the other Steelers' QBs to accomplish this feat?

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning kick off Monday by celebrating Auston Matthews breaking the Leafs' franchise goal record. They discuss the impact of this achievement on past playoff disappointments, whether Matthews can regain his previous form, and what his age means for his prime years. They also analyze Morgan Rielly's recent play and the implications of Tanev's potential long-term absence. The conversation shifts to the Blue Jays' signing of Kazuma Okamoto and its effects on their roster strategy. After the break, they address Canada's loss to Czechia at the IIHF World Junior Championships and whether it reflects a larger problem for Hockey Canada. Finally, they wrap up by evaluating the Steelers' win against the Ravens and if winning the AFC North justifies the Rodgers partnership (33:19).The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliate.

During the Ghislaine Maxwell trial, testimony from Larry Visoski, Jeffrey Epstein's longtime pilot, provided jurors with a detailed look at Epstein's extensive travel patterns and the people who routinely accompanied him. Visoski described flying Epstein on numerous domestic and international trips over many years, including to the U.S. Virgin Islands, New Mexico, and overseas destinations. He testified that young women and girls were frequently passengers on these flights, sometimes traveling without parents or clear explanations for their presence. Visoski's testimony helped establish the scale and regularity of Epstein's operations, showing that the movement of underage girls was not incidental but a repeated and normalized part of Epstein's private air travel.David Rodgers, Epstein's former property manager in the U.S. Virgin Islands, complemented Visoski's testimony by explaining how Epstein's residences functioned on the ground, particularly on Little Saint James. Rodgers described seeing young girls at the island, observing their interactions with Epstein, and understanding that their presence was sexual in nature. He testified that the girls were often brought to Epstein as part of an expected routine and that staff understood not to interfere. Together, Visoski and Rodgers provided corroborating insider accounts—one from the air and one from the ground—that reinforced the prosecution's argument that Ghislaine Maxwell was part of a broader, sustained system that enabled Epstein's abuse rather than a peripheral figure disconnected from it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
