September 15, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 24 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about our overarching thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers losing at home on Sunday to the Seattle Seahawks. We talk about the few key turning points in the game and how it was a winnable one for the Steelers until the fourth quarter. As part of our Monday Housekeeping segment, which is brought to you by Touring Plans, Alex and I go over the Steelers' Week 2 Sunday inactive list, the practice squad elevation that was made on Saturday, and the players who sustained injuries against the Seahawks. As usual, Alex and I then move forward into recapping the Steelers' Week 2 home loss to the Seahawks. We start on the offensive side of the football with our recap and talk about several individual player performances and that includes the great game that RB Jaylen Warren played. We discuss offensive line play, the turnovers, the drops, overall quarterback play, and much more. Steelers HC Mike Tomlin decided to punt on fourth and short near midfield with the game tied at 14, so Alex and I discuss his decision to do so. As part of our recap of the Steelers' offense from their Week 2 Sunday, Alex and I mix in several key stats and snap counts concerning that unit. We talk about the heavy usage once again of RB Kenneth Gainwell on offense against the Seahawks and the large amount of YAC that there was once again in the passing game. The Steelers' defense did not play well once again on Sunday, outside of a few interceptions. We go over the run defense in the first and second halves against the Seahawks, the explosive runs allowed, and how the pass defense overall took a step backwards in Week 2 despite registering two sacks and two interceptions. The Steelers special teams units did their part to help secure defeat on Sunday, so Alex and I dive into that phase of the team. We discuss the role that STC Danny Smith played into the poor decision made by rookie RB Kaleb Johnson on the kickoff that resulted in a Seahawks touchdown. We also discuss how the Steelers kickoff return unit has underperformed so far through two regular season games. After fully recapping the Steelers' home loss to the Seahawks, Alex and I discuss the Sunday toe injury sustained by Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow and how he's now likely to miss most of the remaining regular season. Burrow will likely miss both games against the Steelers now and that is a huge development when it comes to the AFC North division race.

With Steelers OLB Nick Herbig dealing with a hamstring injury this week, Alex and I have a lot to say on that topic and if the team might elevate OLB DeMarvin Leal or new ILB Jon Rhattigan on Saturday. We also discuss the possibility of ILB Malik Harrison playing on the edge some on Sunday should Herbig not play in the regular season opener against the New York Jets.

In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the news concerning New York Jets G Alijah Vera-Tucker, who reportedly has suffered a potentially significant injury and could miss considerable time because of it. This is big news with Pittsburgh Steelers scheduled to open their 2025 regular season on Sunday against the Jets. We discuss who will likely replace Vera-Tucker at right guard on Sunday and how the Jets are also set to start a rookie at right tackle in Week 1 as well. The Steelers released veteran WR Robert Woods from the team's practice squad on Monday so we discuss that transaction in addition to the player the team will reportedly sign to take his place on that 17-man unit. Alex and I also discuss veteran free agent WR Gabe Davis deciding to sign back with the Buffalo Bills on Monday. Steelers HC Mike Tomlin held his first weekly press conference of the 2025 season on Tuesday and as usual, Alex and I go over the key things that he had to say during that session with the local media. We talk about what Tomlin had to say about DL Cameron Heyward playing on Sunday versus what the veteran player said on his podcast about that subject recently. Tomlin talked about the running back rotation, defensive line division of labor and injured players on Tuesday so we make sure to address all of those topics during this show.

Steelers rookie QB Will Howard was on The Pat McAfee Show a few days ago so we go over a few things he had to say during that interview. We also discuss the Steelers having presence at a few key college football games over the weekend that highlighted several top quarterback prospects. With the Steelers getting ready to open their 2025 regular season on Sunday against the New York Jets, Alex and I start to give some of our early thoughts on that Week 1 matchup.

We go over our biggest concerns related to the Steelers' 2025 defense as the team gets ready for Week 1.

August 29, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 17 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, which was recorded late Thursday night, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the Dallas Cowboys trading LB Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers earlier in the day. We go over several things related to the Pittsburgh Steelers as a result of Parsons being traded to the Packers and how the Cowboys managed the situation and negotiations with the player. Alex and I discuss the differences between Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and Steelers president Art Rooney II when it comes to how often each meets with the media. Alex and I also discuss how Parsons' agent is the same one that Cowboys WR George Pickens has. After discussing Parsons being traded, Alex and I discuss WR Marquez Valdes-Scantlingchoosing to sign with the San Francisco 49ers as a member of their practice squad following Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers reportedly recruiting him to sign with Pittsburgh. We discuss the possibility of Valdes-Scantling staying with the 49ers all season and whether there is still a chance he could wind up with the Steelers at some point in 2025. The Steelers have now established their initial practice squad for 2025, so Alex and I discuss the 17 players that have now been signed to that unit. We go over each player and how unusual it is for all 17 to come from the final 91-man roster. We also discuss the additional transactions the Steelers made on Thursday that included two players, S Chuck Clark and G Max Scharping, being signed to the 53-man roster, and two other players, QB Will Howard and CB Donte Kent, being placed on the Reserve/Injured list. Did the Steelers stunt the initial growth of Howard by placing him on the Reserve/Injured list to start the 2025 season? Will Howard stay on that list all season? Alex and I attempt to answer those two questions during this episode. Alex and I discuss the Steelers offensive line and wide receiver depth as the team gets ready for their Week 1 road game against the New York Jets. We also discuss a few possible roster elevations that might take place a week from Saturday. This 67-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap and we make sure to answer a few email questions we received from listeners of the show. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

August 27, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 16 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the initial 53-man roster that the Pittsburgh Steelers established on Tuesday. We go over each position group as we review the initial 53-man roster for 2025 and we start at the quarterback position. From there, we roll through the rest of the position groups when it comes to players kept and not kept. The Steelers are sure to massage their 53-man roster in the coming days so Alex and I discuss what additional moves might be made. We discuss the likelihood of CB James Pierre and S Chuck Clark both being re-signed and if QB Will Howard and CB Donte Kent will both be moved to the Reserve/Injured list in the coming days. We talk about some of the minutiae related to several decisions the Steelers made on Tuesday when it comes to the team setting their initial 53-man roster. The Steelers waived CB Beanie Bishop Jr. on Tuesday, and I present a tin foil hat theory related to that move and decision. Will Bishop ultimately land on the team's initial practice squad? What about ILB Mark Robinson, who like Bishop, was waived on Tuesday.As there any chance whatsoever that the Steelers wind up trading QB Skylar Thompson in the next week? Alex and I address that question and try to identify a few teams that might be looking for a backup quarterback still. The Steelers reportedly seem to have some level of interest in free agent WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling after he was cut by the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday. Alex and I discuss his potential fit with the Steelers and what the tape and stats say about him at this stage of his NFL career. Will the Steelers potentially trade for disgruntled Las Vegas Raiders WR Jakobi Meyers? Alex and I address that question briefly during this show. What will the initial practice squad look like for Steelers? Late in this show, Alex and I go over several players that we both feel are near locks to land on the 17-man unit.

August 25, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 15 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the list of 11 players that the Pittsburgh Steelers parted ways with after their Thursday night 2025 preseason finale. We also talk a little about the updated statuses of several injured players since the final preseason game ended and that includes the positive news concerning rookie DL Derrick Harmon. With the early housekeeping out of the way, Alex and I dive right into our final 53-man roster predictions for the Steelers with the team set to establish that initial unit by Tuesday afternoon. Surprisingly, Alex and I have quite a few differences this year when it comes to our final 53-man roster predictions for the Steelers and perhaps the most since we both have been submitting them on the site. We discuss whether there's a chance the Steelers might trade away any players by Tuesday afternoon and if QB Skylar Thompson might wind up being one of those players. We also discuss the possibility of the Steelers using a designated-to-return tag on rookie QB Will Howard. Might the Steelers decide to keep four quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster to get Howard to the Reserve/Injured list without the use of a designated-to-return tag? We discuss that question some. The Steelers could look to add some outside help to their roster in the next several days and especially at the tackle and wide receiver positions. Alex goes over the brief list of potential outside tackle additions that he has identified later in this show. Will the Steelers have any boomerang players that go off and then back on their roster in the next several days? We address that question one last time before the initial 53-man roster is set for the 2025 season. This 79-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap, and we make sure to answer a few questions from listeners at the end of this show. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this Friday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers on the heels of their Thursday night preseason game against the Carolina Panthers. The big topic coming out of the 2025 preseason finale is the knee injury sustained by rookie DL Derrick Harmon. Alex and I discuss how it sounds like the Steelers dodged a huge bullet with the Harmon injury based on the way he looked when he was carted off the field in the first half. We talk about the outlook for Harmon the next few weeks and also go over the other injured players on the Steelers as the team now gets ready for the start of the 2025 regular season in 16 days from today. Steelers CB Beanie Bishop Jr. did not play Thursday night against the Panthers, so we delve into the possible reasons for that surprise happening. We also go over the several other players that did not participate in the team's preseason finale. While the Steelers Thursday night game was sloppy and not overly entertaining, Alex and I still go over what transpired in all three phases. We start on the offensive side of the football and go through all of the position groups and discuss the performances of several different players. We then do the same for the defensive side of the football as well as special teams. Will the Steelers keep QB Skylar Thompson on their 53-man roster after his strong preseason showing? Will they trade him? Is sending rookie QB Will Howard to the Reserve/Injured list as a designated-to-return player the right move for the team to make? We discuss those several questions and go over a few other decisions the team has when it comes to potential trade candidates and use of the Reserve/Injured list. Is second-year DL Logan Lee a lock to make the 53-man roster this year like several believe? Alex and I discuss his roster hopes in this show and also talk about the preseason showing that rookie OLB Jack Sawyer had and even it was disappointing overall. Who won the punter battle this summer? Alex and I aren't really sure which way that will go but we do have some thoughts on the matter. The Steelers have a few interesting roster decisions to make now that their preseason finale against the Panthers has taken place.

In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the recent transactions made by the Pittsburgh Steelers that included the team parting ways with rookie undrafted free agent WR Roc Taylor. We go over why Taylor might have been jettisoned a few days ago. The Steelers had free agent WR Gabe Davis in for a second visit on Tuesday, so Alex and I discuss him reportedly leaving Pittsburgh unsigned once again. We address how Davis would fit with the Steelers if he is ultimately signed and what a contract for him would look like. Ahead of the team's Thursday night preseason finale against the Carolina Panthers, Alex and I go over the health of the Steelers 91-man roster. We discuss a few players we are hoping to learn more about when it comes to their injuries by the time the weekend is over. Steelers DT Cameron Heyward was back in team drills on Tuesday, so Alex and I discuss that big news as the team prepares for their final preseason game. We also talk about how Heyward, OLB T.J. Watt, QB Aaron Rodgers, and WR DK Metcalf are all scheduled to sit out Thursday night against the Panthers. Will the Steelers play CB Jalen Ramsey, CB Darius Slay, CB Joey Porter Jr., and S DeShon Elliott against the Panthers? Steelers HC Mike Tomlin sure made it sound like they all would during his Tuesday press conference. Alex and I discuss whether Tomlin will change his mind when it comes to those four players by the time kickoff rolls around. Alex and I also recap the few other minor things that Tomlin said on Tuesday. With the final preseason game now on tap, Alex and I look at a few players worth watching Thursday night when it comes to potential spots on the 53-man roster not deemed 100 percent secure. As part of this discussion, Alex and I go down a rabbit hole when it comes to the punter battle the Steelers need to conclude soon. Later in this show, Alex and I roll through our updated 53-man roster predictions with two preseason games now in the books. We discuss how there only seems to be a few questions regarding the initial roster right now and how players needing to go to Reserve/Injured as designated-to-return could shape a few final decisions. We also discuss how WR Scotty Miller might be used as a final roster manipulation piece should the need arise and why.

Later in this show, the news breaks that Kuntz might have a broken sternum so we discuss that news and what it might mean for him come the start of the 2025 regular season. We also go over a few things from DL Logan Lee and the long snapping that he did Saturday night after Kuntz left the game injured.

We start on the offensive side of the football and go through all of the position groups to discuss the good, bad, and sometimes ugly play of several different players.

We also go over the few injuries the Steelers did sustain in their 17-14 loss, which HC Mike Tomlin highlighted during his postgame press conference.

Would Cameron Heyward seriously consider missing games in 2025 due to his contract situation?

Keeping with the Heyward theme, Alex and I discuss Steelers TE Connor Heyward in this show. We talk about how safe his spot on the 53-man roster seems to be right now and if the Steelers should look outside the organization for a possibly upgrade to be their fourth tight end. Speaking of the tight end position, Alex and I discuss an old breakdown that former New England Patriots HC Bill Belichick had when it comes to what he looked for in his tight ends and the roles for each on the depth chart. That makes for a fun conversation when applying to the Steelers current group of tight ends. We also go over Belichick's old thoughts on offense and other offensive position groups. With the all-22 tape from the Steelers first preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars now fully digested by both of us, Alex and I recap the good, bad, ugly, and other notable things that we observed. We address and review the individual play of several Steelers players from Saturday night as part of our lengthy postgame breakdown of the tape. The Pivot podcast recently released training camp interviews with Steelers HC Mike Tomlin and new CB Jalen Ramsey that certainly got our full attention. We discuss both interviews and especially Ramsey's in depth. I explain why the Ramsey interview really has me even more fired up when it comes to the impact he can make on defense for the 2025 season and beyond. This 140-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap, and we make sure to answer several email questions we received from listeners of the show. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In this Sunday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers on the heels of their Saturday night preseason game win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. After some initial overarching thoughts on the first preseason game, Alex and I roll through the additional players that did not play against the Jaguars due to injuries. We also go over the one injury the Steelers did sustain during the Saturday night preseason game that HC Mike Tomlin highlighted during his short postgame press conference. Alex and I then get into breaking down the Saturday night preseason game based only on the television copy, and we start on the offensive side of the football. We discuss the play of quarterbacks Mason Rudolph and Skyler Thompson on Saturday night and how both played well above the line. We discuss those two quarterbacks pushing the football down the field quite frequently in Jacksonville and also discuss the few touchdown passes from the game. Could Thompson potentially make the Steelers 53-man roster as the third string quarterback over rookie Will Howard? Might the Steelers consider placing Howard on the Reserve/Injured list to accommodate Thompson? How about the Steelers potentially trading Thompson before the start of the 2025 regular season? We discuss all of those questions early in this show. Moving forward in this preseason game recap, Alex and I go through all of the position groups on both sides of the football. We talk snap totals and the play of several individual players on both offense and defense against the Jaguars. We make sure to hit on the offensive line combinations used Saturday night and how the pass blocking was much better than the run blocking in Jacksonville. Alex and I make sure to note the play of all of the rookie draft picks that played Saturday night such as DT Derrick Harmon, RB Kaleb Johnson, OLB Jack Sawyer, DT Yahya Black, and ILB Carson Bruener. We make sure to hit on special teams play from Saturday night and that includes the Jaguars kicker nailing a 70-yard field goal before the end of the first half.

Alex and I go over the extensive list of players that Tomlin said won't play Saturday night and why.

Steelers TE Darnell Washington was asked recently if he would consider moving to tackle at some point down the road so Alex and I discuss what he had to say about that, and probability of such a position move ever happening.

August 1, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 4 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the Pittsburgh Steelers getting ready for their annual training camp night practice under the high school lights. We make a point to recap the health of the Steelers ahead of their Friday Night Lights practice and how a roster move or two are likely to happen at some point today because of recent injuries the team has sustained to their defensive line. Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin was in the news on Thursday night as he has reportedly requested to be traded. Alex and I look at the likelihood, plausibility, and probability related to Steelers trading for McLaurin. While neither of us think the Steelers will trade for McLaurin, we both think the Steelers should at least inquire about him. We discuss how cash spending would likely be the biggest obstacle when it comes to the Steelers possibly trading for McLaurin. Alex and I then move on to discuss several recent comments made by Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers since our last episode. We go over what Rodgers said about how Steelers HC Mike Tomlin courted him this offseason and what he thinks about C Zach Frazier, who enters his second NFL season.

We also talk about Pouncey's chances of being voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame at a later date. The Miami Dolphins have now revamped the contract of new S Minkah Fitzpatrick since the Steelers traded him, so Alex and I go over the details of what that looks like.

Steelers GM Omar Khan also had a press conference on Wednesday, so Alex and I parse the main talking points to come out of his media session.

In this Monday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the new throwback uniforms that the Pittsburgh Steelers have now revealed for their 2025 season. We go over the uniforms and helmet that pay homage to the 1933 Steelers.

Watt agreed to a three-year, $123 million contract extension on Thursday. As you would expect, Alex and I cover the Watt contract extension from several different angles. The full contract details hit the internet early in this show, so we make sure to go over those thoroughly. We discuss Watt's cap charges, cash flow, guaranteed money, and we also go over how he was the big winner in nearly aspect of his negotiations with the Steelers. Alex and I have a long discussion about whether extending Watt and making him the new highest paid non-QB in the NFL was the right decision. Both of us think it was, and we explain why we both feel that why. We talk about how and why some analysts, media members, and fans of the team are likely upset that the Steelers extended Watt for so much money. We also discuss the overall franchise philosophy the Steelers have had for some time and how the Watt extension played into that. How big of risk do the Steelers now have with Watt moving forward? Alex and I attempt to address that question and topic during this show as well. Could and should have the Steelers gotten Watt extended earlier in the offseason to save a little money? Should they have traded Watt prior to the 2025 NFL Draft? We attempt to address those kinds of questions that several people seem to have concerning Watt during this show as well. After fully discussing Watt's extension multiple ways, Alex and I then dive into more players that we have yet to cover in my annual 90 in 30 series.

July 16, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 161 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to going over the latest contract information regarding two new members of the Pittsburgh Steelers, CB Jalen Ramsey and TE Jonnu Smith, based on the latest NFLPA salary cap update. We go over what the new salary cap hits for Ramsey and Smith are perceived to be set at currently for 2025 and how the uncertainty of the former's option bonus could still play into his amount before Week 1. Based on the latest NFLPA update, the Steelers are now $25,425,794 under the cap. We go over what that means and also talk a little bit about where the Steelers now seem to be at from a cash spending perspective for the 2025 season. Could the Steelers make a trade for Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin or San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings really work from a cash and cap perspective if they really wanted to acquire either player? Alex and I address that popular question that several fans seem to have right now. We also discuss the latest reports cornering both McLaurin and Jennings regarding whether either might ultimately be traded by their current team. Starring in the middle of this show, we pick up where we left off on Monday when it comes to reviewing players in my annual 90 In 30 series. Today, Alex and I discuss 12 more players from that ongoing series and they are: DT Esezi Otomewo, RB/KR Cordarrelle Patterson, CB James Pierre, CB Joey Porter Jr., ILB Patrick Queen, ILB Mark Robinson, QB Aaron Rodgers, QB Mason Rudolph, K Ben Sauls, OLB Jack Sawyer, G Max Scharping, and RB Trey Sermon.

July 14, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 160 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday episode, Alex Kozora is back after a long weekend off and we get right to discussing the latest concerning Pittsburgh Steelers OLB T.J. Watt and his ongoing contract situation. Specifically, Alex and I look at the probability and possibility of Watt holding out completely at the start of training camp and thus not showing up at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe when the rest of the team does. San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings is back in the news on Monday morning as he reportedly wants a new contract or to be traded. We look at if Jennings could potentially land with the Steelers via a trade and what kind of new contract he's likely looking for this summer. As a Monday morning, most of the NFL's 2025 second round selections remain unsigned. We discuss why that's the case this year and who is most likely to blame for that. We discuss the Steelers not having to worry about that problem this year and we look back at the contract that C Zach Frazier signed last year as a second round selection. On the heels of Ross McCorkle doing a 2025 passing and receiving stats exercise during the Friday show, Alex and I go over the changes he submitted over the weekend. Alex and I discuss a few loose stat projections that he has right now for the Steelers tight ends, QB Aaron Rodgers, and WR DK Metcalf as well. With Alex back on Monday, we pick up where e left off on Wednesday when it comes to reviewing players in my annual 90 In 30 serries. Today, Alex and I discuss 12 more players from that ongoing series and they are; OLB Eku Leota, DT Isaiahh Loudermilk, DT Dean Lowry, C Ryan McCollum, G Mason McCormick, CB Cameron McCutcheon, WR Lance McCutcheon, CB Kyler McMichael, WR DK Metcalf, WR Scotty Miller, OLB Jeremiah Moon, and T Doug Nester.

July 11, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 159 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday episode, Ross McCorkle sits in for Alex Kozora, who is taking some well-deserved time off ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers reporting to Latrobe for the start of their 2025 training camp. Ross and I start this show off by discussing where Steelers DT Cameron Heyward is ranked in the Top 100 Players for 2025. We discuss Heyward's ability to bat down passes and how this year's ranking on the list feels a bit low. We also discuss where Steelers OLB T.J. Watt is likely to land in this year's Top 100 list. We also discuss the probability associated with Watt being traded this summer and how most of the fanbase probably feels about him and his contract situation this offseason. Former Steelers RB Najee Harris, who is now a member of the Los Angeles Chargers, had an unfortunate fireworks accident during the Fourth of July weekend so we make sure to go over that bit of news that surfaced on Thursday. We also discuss the fact that not too much is known concerning the contracts of new CB Jalen Ramsey and TE Jonnu Smith as of Friday morning. Even though Alex is away on this Friday, his latest post about three overlooked players currently on the Steelers roster deserves some attention and review by us. Ross and I go over the three players that Alex listed in that post and then we attempt to build it out by two more players. In the middle of this show, I sort of ambush Ross a little bit with a passing stat prediction exercise for the Steelers' 2025 season. I start with getting Ross' 2025 stat predictions for the top five wide receivers. From there, I get Ross to throw out his 2025 passing stat prediction for Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers. We then subtract the wide receiver stat predictions from his Rodgers' prediction and go over what would presumably be left over for the Steelers tight ends and running backs in 2025. Overall, this exercise produces a little bit of eye-opening and should result in some level of pushback from the listeners. It's a great exercise to conduct at this point of the offseason and I will let Ross revise his numbers for Alex and I to go over during Monday's show. Based on the Friday stat exercise, it certainly seems less than likely that the Steelers will add another notable wide receiver to their roster this offseason. Near the end of this Friday show, Ross and I discuss the plausibility and probability related to the Steelers possible signing veteran free agent safety Justin Simmons this offseason. That discussion is a result of a few things that Simmons said about his future during a recent interview from this past week. This 105-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap.

July 9, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 159 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about a few more details that have surfaced this week concerning the contract of new Pittsburgh Steelers CB Jalen Ramsey. We also go over the fact that Ramsey's new 2025 cap charge as a member of the Steelers is still yet to be known and how that should change by Friday night. Former Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger had a few interesting things to say about the backup quarterback battle in Pittsburgh this summer so we briefly touch on that topic and how it's very unlikely that rookie QB Will Howard will bypass veteran QB Mason Rudolph on the team's depth chart by Week 1 of the regular season. Alex and I spend a little time in this show discussing the hype surrounding Howard right now and especially when it comes to the majority of the Steelers' fanbase. Are fans needing to pump the breaks some when it comes to Smith's rookie season? Also in this show, Alex and I pick up where we left off when it comes to discussing players in my annual 90 in 30 series. Today, we discuss nine more players ahead of training camp getting underway and they are P Cameron Johnston, OT Broderick Jones, OG Steven Jones, CB Donte Kent, S Miles Killebrew, LS Christian Kuntz, DE/OLB DeMarvin Leal, DL Logan Lee, and WR Montana Lemonious-Craig. We spend a little extra time during the above segment discussing Broderick Jones and what a huge 2025 season it is for him.

July 7, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 158 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking more about the Pittsburgh Steelers signing GM Omar Khan to a contract extension last week. This comes on the heels of Alex and Josh Carney discussing that news on the Friday show. This time I give my thoughts on the decision to extend Khan, and we go over how he should be graded so far in his short tenure and what should be expected out of him these next two seasons. After having a lengthy talk about Khan's career to date and his extension news, Alex and I go over his recent grading of all the big decisions and moves the Steelers have made so far this offseason. We grade the team trading for WR DK Metcalf, the trading away of WR George Pickens, the selection of DT Derrick Harmon in the first round, the addition and process of signing QB Aaron Rodgers, and the big trade that was recently made between the Steelers and the Miami Dolphins. While Alex and I are close when it comes to our grading of those several offseason moves, we do differ slightly on a few of them and especially when it comes to the Steelers trading away Pickens. Later in this show, Alex and I pick up where we left off when it comes to discussing players in my annual 90 in 30 series. Today, we discuss nine more players ahead of this year's training camp getting underway and they are OLB Alex Highsmith, ILB Cole Holcomb, QB Will Howard, RB Evan Hull, RB Max Hurleman, CB D'Shawn Jamison, WR Brandon Johnson, RB Kaleb Johnson, and S Quindell Johnson. As part of Alex and I discussing Howard on Wednesday, we offer up some predictions and hopes when it comes to the number of preseason snaps he will ultimately play this summer. This 125-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap.

July 4, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 156 of the Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday Fourth of July episode, Josh Carney and Alex Kozora discuss the three-year contract extension Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan received yesterday. We discuss the busy offseason Khan and the organization has had and wonder the status of Assistant GM Andy Weidl, too. Josh and I talk about why Khan received his extension, too. Josh shares his thoughts on Monday's mega-deal that sent FS Minkah Fitzpatrick to the Miami Dolphins in return for CB Jalen Ramsey, TE Jonnu Smith, and a 2027 Day Three pick swap. Josh weighs in if he likes the move and the impact Pittsburgh's aggressive offseason could have on 2025's results. We discuss why Fitzpatrick was dealt and what Ramsey's role on the defense could look like. Josh also shares the free agent addition he'd like to see Pittsburgh make. We briefly discuss the Steelers' Malibu workout that took place earlier this week. Several pass-catchers joined QB Aaron Rodgers in California for at least one practice and we offer our thoughts on how much it will help ahead of training camp. Finishing out our beat writer offseason reviews this week, Browns Zone's Scott Petrak joins myself to recap the Cleveland Browns past few months. We discuss the reason why Cleveland drafted DL Mason Graham in the first round, why the team moved up for QB Shedeur Sanders, and who has the edge in the team's up-for-grabs quarterback battle. We also discuss expectations for the Browns this season and the future of head coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry. Be sure to follow Scott here, @ScottPetrak. And thank him for joining us today. This roughly 65-minute episode also covers a few other topics not mentioned above, including the topic of sports betting and the negative impacts felt across sports. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

July 2, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 155 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking a lot more about the trades the Pittsburgh Steelers made on Monday. This includes more discussion about the Steelers acquiring CB Jalen Ramsey and TE Jonnu Smith from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for S Minkah Fitzpatrick. Alex and I discuss the average number of interceptions Ramsey has had per season for his NFL career date, his fit in the Steelers offense, and his potential heavy volume of playing time. We discuss the Steelers' possible usage of their top three cornerbacks throughout the 2025 season and if the team might add another veteran free safety at some point during this offseason. We also discuss once again what led to Fitzpatrick being a piece of the Monday trade with the Dolphins. We also discuss whether Fitzpatrick could have a 2025 season with the Dolphins that might make the Steelers regret trading him. Not to be forgotten, Alex and I discuss a little bit more what Smith brings to Pittsburgh's offense in 2025 and how he's not a No. 3 tight end on this year's roster. Will the Steelers sign veteran free agent WR Tyler Boyd this offseason? Should they? We discuss those two questions in addition to whether we think veteran free agent WR Gabe Davis will ultimately land with Pittsburgh before Week 1 of the 2025 regular season. In the second half of this show, Alex and I are joined by Jonas Shaffer, who covers the Baltimore Ravens for The Baltimore Banner on thebaltimorebanner.com. Jonas spends over a half an hour with us previewing the 2025 Ravens and several other aspects related to the team and the offseason they have had to date. As usual, please make sure to follow Jonas on Twitter/X at @Jonas Shaffer and make sure to read his work and listen to his podcast here: https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/author/jonas-shaffer/ Alex and I close out this Wednesday show by discussing the next six players listed in my annual 90 In 30 series; DT Derrick Harmon, ILB Devin Harper, ILB Malik Harrison, OLB Nick Herbig, DT Cameron Heyward, and TE Connor Heyward.

In this Monday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the busy morning the Pittsburgh Steelers had when it comes to several trades they made. This includes us discussing the Steelers acquiring CB Jalen Ramsey and TE Jonnu Smith from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for S Minkah Fitzpatrick. We go over all of the known details related to the big trade between the Steelers and the Dolphins and we update several of those as the show guys on. We also make sure to go over some of the early known contract details related to both Ramsey and Smith. Alex and I give our overall thoughts on the Steelers trades and how the new players fit in Pittsburgh. We also discuss the departure of Fitzpatrick and wonder how the Steelers might go about filling his free safety position moving forward. We discuss the several surprising moves the Steelers have made so far this offseason and how it's been a spring and summer for the ages when it comes to the organization. Alex and I make sure to discuss what the Monday trades mean when it comes to Steelers OLB T.J. Watt as he continues to wait for a new contract. We discuss if a Watt extension is still in his future and why. In the second half of this show, Alex and I are joined by Jay Morrison, who covers the Cincinnati Bengals for Sports Illustrated on BengalsTalk.com. Jay spends roughly a half an hour with us previewing the 2025 Bengals and several other aspects related to the team and the offseason they have had to date.

June 25, 2025 - Season 15, Episode 152 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the Tuesday appearance that new Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers had on The Pat McAfee Show. The Rodgers interview went over 40 minutes so as you can imagine, he said a lot of things worth discussing. We talk about 2025 likely to be his last NFL season, his thoughts on the team's leadership and his role within that, his mentoring of the other quarterbacks on the roster, and much more. Alex and I discuss a few of the major media thoughts to come out of the Rodgers' Tuesday interview. We also discuss Rodgers' thoughts on his privacy as well. The Steelers seem set to sign a new long snapper to the roster in the coming days, so we discuss that forthcoming transaction. We also talk a little about the recent story that surfaced on Tuesday concerning the possible collusion that has happened when it comes to fully guaranteed contracts and quarterbacks. On the heels of my annual 90 In 30 series getting underway over the weekend, Alex and I go over the next six players that I have covered. That means that we both take an in-depth look at DB Sebastian Castro, T Dylan Cook, DT Domenique Davis, CB Brandin Echols, DT Daniel Ekuale, and S DeShon Elliott.
