Ben Roethlisberger bashed Broderick Jones for his tape on Sunday. Are we close to declaring him a bust? Chris was the biggest Jones fan of them all and he still wants to wait out what he can do with more games at left tackle. How many guys on the offensive line have actually done well under the coaching of Pat Meyer? Is it just another instance of bad coaching? Poni said the Steelers should have jumped on Hank Fraley before his coaching career took off. Chris doesn't think Troy Fautanu has been much better than Jones. Judge Donny – Should the Pirates pull Paul Skenes tonight the moment his ERA goes below 2? Mike Florio from Pro Football Focus joined the show. Why can't the Steelers or Vikings go over to Dublin until Friday? Mike told a story about his first Steelers-Vikings game, which are his two favorite teams. The guys think it's odd than an industry like the NFL didn't make sure that every international location had suitable facilities to allow the teams to practice well ahead of time in that city. Mike talked about teams dealing with giving away a home game in favor of playing internationally. Who is in more trouble – the Chiefs or the Ravens, one of which will fall to 1-3 this Sunday? The guys got Mike's reaction to Russell Wilson being benched in NY. How will the Steelers' comp picks be impacted by what has happened to some of their free agents?

Should coach Mike Tomlin be encouraged that Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt, Nick Herbig, Jabrill Peppers, Cole Holcomb and Brandin Echols were able to generate five turnovers on defense? Or is it a concern that Patriots QB Drake Maye was still able to move the ball in between those big plays? Can this unit really rely on that amount of ball luck in subsequent weeks? Or does DC Teryl Austin still need to figure out how to limit opposing offenses better? Our duo tackles those questions, then gives thoughts on the offense as well.

Is the lack of success holding back Arthur Smith's offense, even as its identity has shifted more toward Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf and the passing game?

September 10, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 22 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers signing veteran S Jabrill Peppers on Tuesday. We discuss what Peppers brings to defense and how he could see some playing time right away with S DeShon Elliott currently sidelined with a knee injury. The Steelers injury report has grown some heading into Week 2, so Alex and I go over Elliott, DT Derrick Harmon, and ILB Malik Harrison already being ruled out for the team's Week 2 Sunday home game against the Seattle Seahawks. We also talk about CB Joey Porter Jr. and OLB Nick Herbig both entering Week 2 as questionable with hamstring injuries. The Steelers made several transactions on Wednesday morning, so Alex and I make sure to cover those during the show. We address the Week 2 third quarterback situation the Steelers now have and if rookie QB Will Howard might find his way back from the Reserve/Injured list sooner than expected now that QB Skylar Thompson has joined him on that list as of Wednesday morning. Steelers HC Mike Tomlin held his weekly press conference on Tuesday and as usual, Alex and I recap the main talking points that came out of that session with the media. We discuss Tomlin's thoughts on the two starting tackles, Broderick Jones and Troy Fautanu, potential defensive line adjustments, the play of QB Aaron Rodgers in Week 1, and the usage of RB Kenneth Gainwell to start the 2025 regular season. Several other talking points from Tuesday are also discussed as well throughout this show and Alex and I both discuss Steelers DT Keeanu Benton and his play in the base defense and potential future at the nose tackle position. With the all-22 tape from the Week 1 game against the New York Jets now fully digested, Alex and I both deliver our additional thoughts from Sunday's win against the Jets when it comes to the offense, defense, and special teams. We pass along several advanced stats as well as personnel usage from the game against the Jets as part of us recapping what stood out from the all-22 tape of that Week 1 contest.

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.

And can coach Mike Tomlin get where he wants to go if Broderick Jones, and potentially also Troy Fautanu, aren't playing at close to a Pro Bowl level in protecting a largely immobile Rodgers behind center? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

In this clip from the Tuesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey welcomes insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze the Steelers' situation at offensive tackle with Troy Fautanu and Broderick Jones. Did either or both show enough in training camp and the preseason to prove that they can be building blocks for the young offensive line, which also includes names like Mason McCormick and Zach Frazier? And will they be able to adequately protect Aaron Rodgers, who increasingly lacks mobility at QB? Later, they ponder whether the running game or high number of new faces in the secondary is a bigger concern. With Jalen Ramsey, Darius Slay Jr, Juan Thornhill and others all trying to find their place. And they explain how they feel the Cam Heyward contract dispute may play out now that he's returned to practicing with the team.

On the Tuesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey welcomes Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to analyze the team's situation at wide receiver and in the running game. Should fans be alarmed about Calvin Austin III's injury after he suggested there is a chance he may miss NFL Week 1 against the New York Jets? Would Gabe Davis be an adequate replacement at WR2 behind DK Metcalf, following his latest visit with the team for a physical? And where does Roman Wilson belong in the pecking order after his strong preseason? Our duo tackles those questions, then takes stock of the way Arthur Smith's offense has run the ball thus far. Did Kaleb Johnson show improvement against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers? Do young offensive linemen Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu, Mason McCormick and Zach Frazier need to show they can perform when they count before fans can really count on the unit? And how much of a difference with Darnell Washington, Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith make for the blocking schemes when they're in the lineup more regularly?

Has Cory Trice Jr. run out of time to prove he can stay healthy and earn a cornerback spot behind Jalen Ramsey, Joey Porter Jr. and Darius Slay Jr.? Is Will Howard in danger of landing on IR or even losing his roster spot amid strong outings by Skylar Thompson in the competition to back up Mason Rudolph and Aaron Rodgers? Why hasn't Robert Woods been able to hold off names like Scotty Miller and Roman Wilson in the receivers battle behind DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III? Is DeMarvin Leal officially a bust on the defensive line? And why has the running game been so week? Do offensive linemen including Broderick Jones, Troy Fautanu and Zach Frazier deserve the blame?

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.

The comments made by Cam Heyward didn't help matters yesterday. The waters are getting murky with the whole situation and the legacy of Heyward seems to be taking shots left and right. It seems like mistakes were made at the negotiating table by Heyward and his agent last year. Fans chimed in on both sides of Cam Heyward contract dispute. Poni made a bet with Anthony in Oakland on Heyward's status heading into Week 1. Steelers OL coach Pat Meyer talked to our own Jeff Hathhorn on the final day of camp. Jeff asked Pat about the youth on the offensive line. Pat got into the maturation of Broderick Jones and how important the season is to him. Pat said Troy Fautanu is finding his game again after missing almost the entire 2024 season (his rookie year).

The latest on the Cam Heyward front makes it sound like the Steelers are not in the mood to pay him, per Adam Schefter. It sounds like he wants more than just a little sweetener on the top of his deal. Is there some animosity because the Steelers paid multiple guys on the defense this offseason, but not Heyward? The guys think the team was the side leaking things to ESPN. Do the Steelers have the ability to roll over some money from next year or would Heyward also turn that down?
