Podcasts about Rudolph

What are the latest rumors with the Steelers 53-man roster? One preseason game remains and cut-down day is 6 days away. Are the Steelers going to keep 4 QBs? Is that sensible roster allocation? There was a roster projection put out by ESPN today that kept 4 QBs. Some notables left on the cutting room floor were Robert Spears-Jennings, Esezi Otomewo and Kaleb Johnson. There is growing sentiment that Kaden Wetjen is on the bubble. Are 5 DLs enough? Will Will Howard have a better career than Kenny Pickett? Rudolph's Replies – What did Mason Rudolph say to the media today?

The Pittsburgh Steelers fell flat on Friday night in a 17-0 losing effort to the New York Jets in NFL Preseason action. More important than the final score was the quarterback play by both Will Howard and Drew Allar. What went right, and wrong, with these two quarterbacks in the Week 2 game? And why was Mason Rudolph the big winner, without even playing? All that on the latest Steelers Chalk Talk podcast with Coach Kevin Smith.

August 21, 2026 - Season 17, Episode 11 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show Alex Kozora and I start by talking about the likelihood of the Pittsburgh Steelers trading CB Joey Porter Jr. before the season starts on the heels of the Thursday night report from NFL insider Jordan Schultz. We go over the overall plausibility of Porter being traded and the several boxes that would need to be checked before the Steelers even remotely considered dealing him to another team. Will the Steelers ultimately get a contract extension with Porter done prior to the start of the regular season? What if they don't and what if they also decide not to trade him because of that? Alex and I attempt to go down that discussion path early in this show. The Steelers will play their second preseason game Friday night against the New York Jets so ahead of that, Alex and I give our full preview of that contest and that includes several players and things we will be watching for this evening. Alex goes over some specific things that fans should be looking for Friday night when it comes to the two young quarterbacks, Will Howard and Drew Allar. Will the Steelers ultimately keep four quarterbacks on the 53-man roster to start the regular season and is Mason Rudolph guaranteed to be one of at least three kept? How much of what Steelers HC Mike McCarthy said on Wednesday about Rudolph really matters as the final roster decision date creeps closer? Alex and I attempt to answer those questions, and we also look at a few times in recent history that NFL teams have kept four quarterbacks to open a regular season. Included in that historical four-quarterback lookback, Alex and I go over the last two times the Steelers opened a regular season with four quarterbacks on their 53-man roster. Ahead of Friday night's preseason game, Alex and I use the last part of this episode to compare and contrast our most recent 53-man roster predictions for the Steelers. While we only differ in two players overall, the quarterback group remains a huge part of our differences. We explain our decisions as part of predictions. This 113-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above and we close this show out by answering a few emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Hour 1 with Joe Starkey: Should the Steelers trade Mason Rudolph? Jets reporter Jake Asman said the Jets have talked about Mason Rudolph. Joe thinks that Rudolph, Will Howard, and Drew Allar will be back next year. The Steelers will likely only play 21 games this year, including preseason, so they all hold meaning. Does Mason Rudolph need more time in the preseason to be ready if Aaron Rodgers goes down in a game? 

Should the Steelers trade Mason Rudolph? Jets reporter Jake Asman said the Jets have talked about Mason Rudolph. Joe thinks that Rudolph, Will Howard, and Drew Allar will be back next year. Will Howard was the people's choice when he first arrived, but it seems to Joe that Allar is gaining more favor after the preseason opener and has passed Will Howard. The big question is if Allar can dissect defenses.

Mark and Tommy Football talk quarterback, and more Steelers talk, the Pirates and Paul Skenes' attitude towards sucking, and more.

Mark thinks it's almost set in stone that Mason Rudolph will be the backup. Mark believes it's going to take a ton for Will Howard to surpass Mason Rudolph. Mark doesn't think the Steelers would disrespect Rudolph and put him on the practice squad. Will Howard said that he lost 15 pounds. 

Mason Rudolph is a little bit jealous of Will Howard and Drew Allar, but for reasons you may not think. Rudolph is jealous of the tutelage they have gotten so early in their careers that he didn't get from a veteran QB or his head coach early on. Aside from the shot taken at Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Tomlin, Rudolph is very aware that the fanbase is starving for their next franchise guy. Fair to say he has a point? If Rudolph gets a shot this season, will he succeed under Mike McCarthy? KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani joined the show. Pomp thinks it's a good broadcasting tool to go back and listen to your work, especially the PXP duties he has with Steelers preseason games. Bob said the preseason games are great for the ratings, even though people claim not to care. Bob thinks 4 QBs is a ‘logical' move for the Steelers, but it will make things tight when it comes to the 53-man. Pomp was ‘stunned' by Kaleb Johnson only playing 5 snaps against the Packers, but expects a larger workload tomorrow night. Has Pomp traded notes with Ian Eagle yet, who calls TV games for the Jets in the preseason? Is Gabriel Rubio bound for the practice squad even though he has put together a strong camp? Bob sees a different fire in Roman Wilson this year. After the call, we took a look at the TV crews for NFL preseason games. Power Rankings – Top 5 guys you want on the Steelers roster instead of 4 QBs.

If Rudolph gets a shot this season, will he succeed under Mike McCarthy?

Jason La Canfora reported that Mike McCarthy really likes Will Howard. Could the Steelers trade Mason Rudolph? McCarthy said he knows what he has in Rudolph, and maybe that means he gets traded. Bob still thinks the Steelers will draft a quarterback. We hear from Steelers fans.

Aaron Rodgers is not going to play in the second preseason game. Who would you choose between Drew Allar or Will Howard as the Steelers future QB? Mike McCarthy is going to make this offense different than previous years. What does this mean for Mason Rudolph? Bob thinks Rudolph will stay and the Steelers are keeping four QBs.

Hour 3 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: Aaron Rodgers is not going to play in the second preseason game. Who would you choose between Drew Allar or Will Howard as the Steelers future QB? Bob thinks Rudolph will stay and the Steelers are keeping four QBs. We want to see the young quarterbacks play.

Hour 2 with Bob Pompeani and Joe Starkey: If Paul Skenes pitches poorly and the Pirates lose, Jason Mackey thinks there's a chance he's shut down. He thinks it would be tough for the Pirates to keep Ben Cherington if they finish last. Could the Steelers trade Mason Rudolph? McCarthy said he knows what he has in Rudolph, and maybe that means he gets traded.

Mike McCarthy said that Will Howard will start against the New York Jets. Drew Allar will follow Howard. Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph won't play. Mason Rudolph not playing seems like an indication that he is going to make the roster. McCarthy knows what he has in Rudolph. Jeff Patton of Baseball Card Castle joined the show.

Mike McCarthy confirmed the rumor Poni put out there yesterday – Will Howard and Drew Allar will carry the load for the Steelers on Friday night against the Jets. No Aaron Rodgers or Mason Rudolph in preseason Game 2. Is the growing belief that the Steelers will keep 4 QBs come true? The guys weighed in from both sides of the argument. Would a team give up a pick, even a Day 3 selection, for Rudolph's services? Is Mason Rudolph a Top 45 QB in football? That would put him around the top half of the league when it comes to backup QBs. A few calls on the QB situation. Donny Football Debrief – LaNorris Sellers has no excuses to not have a great season. His off-the-field schedule is quite light this upcoming season.

Instead, Mike McCarthy will take a longer look at Drew Allar and Howard. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Will Howard and Drew Allar played well and Allar hit on the layups, but Nick thinks the Howard two-minute drive was the most impressive all game. Nick thinks Howard has started to close the gap on Mason Rudolph, but not that much. Nick predicts one of Howard or Rudolph makes the team.

Poni with a hot rumor to get us going – the young QBs will split duty on Friday night against the Jets. He said the expectation is for both Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph to sit the game out with Will Howard and Drew Allar each getting a half of football. What does this mean? The guys pondered if it means Rudolph is safe. Is he? If the Steelers have a QB whisperer as a head coach, could it mean the young QBs are getting their shot to make their mark? Should the Steelers be pushing Rudolph as trade bait? It wouldn't matter if another team watches Rudolph play 10-15 snaps in a preseason game because it wouldn't dictate whether or not they trade for him.

Callers weigh-in on keeping or losing Mason Rudolph. McCarthy Minute – How will Kaden Wetjen be used in this offense? We were a little concerned by an opinion we heard yesterday about what he brings to the table. We won't see Max Iheanachor in the next preseason game either. When could we see the 1st round pick in the starting spot?

How did the quarterbacks fare in the preseason opener? Drew Allar and Will Howard played very well. What does that mean for the future of Mason Rudolph? Should the Steelers keep Rudolph as a veteran backup? Troy Fautanu did not have a great game. His transition from right to left tackle was a little rough yesterday. Penalties were not the Steelers' friend at all. Unnecessary penalties occurred frequently last night. How did the offensive line perform as a whole? Donny says you cannot be disappointed with the defense's performance. The Steelers only allowed three field goals, including against the Packers' true starting quarterback. Most importantly for the Steelers running back room: Where is Kaleb Johnson? The Steelers' former third round pick is MIA and was not seen much last night.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are getting deeper into 2026 Training Camp, and some major storylines are beginning to take shape. In this episode of State of the Steelers, we break down the latest news surrounding first-round pick Max Iheanachor after his injury scare, plus the growing excitement around rookie cornerback Daylen Everette, who is quickly becoming one of the biggest surprises of Steelers camp. We also dive into the quarterback battle between Mason Rudolph and Will Howard. Reports coming out of training camp suggest Rudolph currently has the edge, while Howard has shown some inconsistency. With rookie Drew Allar also developing behind them, could Will Howard suddenly find himself fighting for more than just the QB2 job?

Nick Farabaugh from pennlive.com comes on The Fan Hotline to talk about many of his observations from Steelers' camp this week with fill-in host Donny "Football" Chedrick.

In 1996, a pipe bomb packed with masonry nails exploded in Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park, killing two people and injuring more than a hundred. The FBI's first suspect was Richard Jewell, the security guard who'd found the bag and helped clear the area. By the time he was cleared 88 days later, investigators had no idea who they were looking for. Columnist John Archibald had covered the Olympics that summer, never imagining the bomber would come to his own city.On January 29, 1998, a bomb hidden in a FedEx box exploded outside a Birmingham abortion clinic, killing an off-duty police officer and gravely wounding nurse Emily Lyons. This time someone saw the bomber walk away — a UAB student named Jermaine Hughes, who followed him to a gray Nissan pickup with North Carolina plates. The name that came back was Eric Robert Rudolph. Within hours he vanished into the Nantahala National Forest, where he'd stay for five years while locals put up signs reading "Run, Rudolph, Run."Subscribe to our newsletter: ⁠https://jedlipinski.substack.com/⁠ Connect with Jed Lipinski:⁠https://www.instagram.com/gonesouthpodcast/⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/gonesouthpodcast/⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jed-lipinski/

Mike would go to church, then to his dad's bar, then would watch the Steelers growing up. Mike was surprised to hear that Rudolph will take first-team reps.

Mike McCarthy said there will be no live tackling at Steelers camp. Joe is good with that. Will Howard and Drew Allar will split Np. 3 reps. Joe's conclusion is that Mason Rudolph is going to be the backup. Joe wonders where the opportunity will be for Will Howard. Bob and Joe think the Steelers are respecting Rudolph as a veteran and want Howard and Allar to earn reps as No. 2.

Ben Roethlisberger has spoken about the backup QB situation and is in line with Mullsy once again. Ben said it's wiser to hold on to the 2 young guns that you don't know about yet, Will Howard and Drew Allar. Obviously, Aaron Rodgers isn't going anywhere, which leaves Mason Rudolph as the odd man out. Ben said he would cut Mason. Steelers reporter Ray Fittipaldo from the PG joined the show. Where does Ray come down on the QB2 battle as we approach training camp? Ray thinks Mike McCarthy could have Will Howard as prepared as Mason Rudolph entering the season, which would make Rudolph expendable. How much pressure is on Roman Wilson?

Work Smarter, Not Harder: Discarding the 'grind' mentality in favor of strategic, community-oriented work boosts both sales and life quality. Immersing in Community for Sales Success Building Local Trust and Loyalty Kevin Rudolph's strategy of embedding himself within the community revolutionizes traditional car sales methods. By partnering with local organizations, such as first responders and charitable events, he not only cultivates trust but also ensures repeated business and referrals. He explains, "Selling cars nowadays is about being part of the community more than it is by sitting by your desk and making phone calls." Creating symbiotic relationships with local entities like fire departments and youth sports leagues not only garners loyalty but also establishes a brand synonymous with community care and support. For example, his innovative program of donating $20 per car sold to a local fire department epitomizes a strategy that benefits both the dealership and the community. His efforts highlight, "Proper ad spend when it comes to things like that… is better than anything because… now I'm their walking, talking billboard." The broader implication is clear: integrating into the community creates a positive feedback loop. Such involvement not only enhances brand awareness but also makes the business an integral part of the local fabric, leading to sustained growth and loyalty. The Power of Personal Branding in Automotive Sales Making a Name for Yourself Creating a powerful personal brand is crucial for distinguishing oneself in any field, particularly in car sales. Kevin Rudolph's "Ride with Rudolph" campaign serves as a successful model of combining personal identity with business goals. His brand capitalizes on his unique name, making it memorable and distinguished in the crowded marketplace. As Rudolph shares, leveraging one's personal narrative and strengths can lead to substantive career achievements, helping transform sales encounters into meaningful relationships. He asserts, "Create a brand that is personal to you… and then you have to live, breathe, and be that brand." In the broader landscape, personal branding presents pronounced benefits in enhancing visibility, establishing authority, and crafting a niche audience. It pushes sales professionals beyond the daily grind, allowing them to connect more personally with customers and inspire trust and reliability. Strategic Networking and Public Engagement Creating Events that Foster Connections A key element in Kevin's strategy is leveraging strategic community events and partnerships to amplify outreach and build a robust referral network. By organizing car seat safety checks and sponsoring sports teams, Rudolph intertwines everyday business operations with public service and engagement. For instance, Kevin's involvement with the local prevention and counseling center demonstrates how aligning business interests with community needs can drive remarkable outcomes. He positions this involvement within his broader brand strategy — attending events and providing tangible support. "You have to be present at these events, whether it's your high school basketball team or whether it's your whole youth sports league administration side," Kevin emphasizes. This tactic reinforces the potential impact of proactive networking and establishing oneself as a community leader. It highlights that successful sales are less about selling products and more about building relationships, trust, and brand loyalty through meaningful interactions. Reflections on Success Beyond Conventional Sales Car sales, often perceived as a transactional business, is undergoing a transformation driven by relationship-building and community immersion. Kevin Rudolph's journey magnifies how adopting a community-focused ethos, coupled with strategic personal branding, reshapes traditional approaches. Rudolph demonstrates that success can be achieved without compromising personal satisfaction, balance, and genuine community impact. His insights are a clarion call for sales professionals to rethink their strategies, emphasizing that empowering connections and purposeful brand building can yield both personal and professional fulfillment. Through civic engagement and strategic outreach, Kevin exemplifies a business model that is as profitable as it is personally rewarding, forging a path for continued success in the dynamic world of car sales.     Resources + Our Proud Sponsors:   ➼ Podium: The AI Platform Powering the Modern Dealership.
