Leroy is somber after reports come out on who Michigan they are looking at to be their next head coach. We preview the Monday Night Football matchup between the Dolphins and Steelers. We start off the second hour with a bit of silly sauce as Tobin tries to convince Leroy and Brittney of his ridiculous time zones theories. We quickly pivot as Tua told the media that he was “happy” with the Dolphins despite him not throwing the ball much, and Tobin raises the question if Tua will even be here next season. We then try to Tickle Leroy's Fancy ahead of the NFL football weekend slate. Tobin is sick of people trying to bait him with the Giannis to the Heat rumors, he swears that he is a changed man and will not resort back to his old ways of getting excited about players coming to Miami… we all call bs. He then goes on to rant about the NBA begging them GIVE THE HEAT THEIR PICK! Leroy spends the segment fighting with technology and Tobin has enough!

TJ Watt is officially out against the Dolphins due to his lung issue. Who is right? Mike Tomlin speaks, but says very little.

An NFL star has been hospitalized after experiencing an unexpected health issue. Correspondent Gethin Coolbaugh reports.

It sounds like Derrick Harmon will be back on Monday night. Given the defensive rushing stats, they will welcome him with open arms. The numbers make the argument that Harmon is the team's MVP. They allow roughly 100 fewer yards against the run with Harmon in the lineup. The guys talked about the draft structure that has changed since Kevin Colbert retired and why they like the working relationship between Omar Khan/Andy Weidl and Mike Tomlin throughout the process that culminates in late April.

A scary situation out of Steelers practice as TJ Watt was sent to a local hospital after a lung concern that took place while getting treatment at the facility. The Steelers have a 1-11 record, including the playoffs, without Watt on the field. Are they better backfilled than they were in the past? This is a big opportunity for Nick Herbig and possibly Jack Sawyer on Monday night. We compared it to the Tyrod Taylor situation with the Chargers back in 2020 that led to Justin Herbert getting his first start. An ESPN update on TJ Watt doesn't tell us much new. We revisited the 1 win the Steelers have without TJ Watt on the field. PG writer Jason Mackey joined the show. After the Pirates missed on big hitters the MLB Winter Meetings, Jason thinks they are truly in on conversations with the Rays for power-hitting infielder Brandon Lowe. He doesn't expect it to take a ton in return. Jason isn't sure if the Buccos will pull in a big-time guy, but thinks names like Jorge Polanco or Eugenio Suarez are possible. What else could be headed in the Pirates' direction?

Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo from the PG joined the show. Ray is having a hard time thinking TJ Watt will be able to play Monday night, but it won't be because he doesn't want to. Ray isn't ready to rule Watt out yet with a few days to go before the game. What caused this to happen? Ray didn't want to speculate, but he brought up a similar situation with Jerome Bettis before a playoff game in 2001. If Watt can't go, Ray said the Dolphins have a truly threatening run game. Does Ray think they can backfill there? Ray went through some of the other injuries on the report from this afternoon and who they could be getting back, like Derrick Harmon. Ray thinks the Steelers win.
