Last night was the 19 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 6: announcing oh Man. 20 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 5: First half hour of this power hour of Steeler Talk, 21 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 5: brought you by Ford, your neighborhood Ford Store. The F 22 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 5: one fifty is the truck of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Well 23 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 5: they got trucked in the second half last night. Yeah, 24 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 5: and there is no shortage of reasons to be angry. 25 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 2: If you're a Steelers fan right now. 26 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 5: I'm giving the offense a pass on just about everything, 27 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 5: even though there's plenty to not like about the execution 28 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 5: in the second half. 29 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: But the defense is so bad. 30 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 5: It's like complaining about a hangnail when you've got, you know, 31 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 5: pancreatic cancer. 32 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 4: Let's yeah, I don't know how you fix this. Well, 33 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 4: the you know, the offense could have been better in 34 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 4: the second half, for sure. You know, at the at 35 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 4: halftime sixteen to seven, they're not running the ball. You 36 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 4: are running the ball against the you know, the second 37 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 4: best rush defense in the league. Look good, you're gonna 38 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 4: get the ball to begin the second half. It's sixteen 39 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 4: to seven. That was really the turning point. I mean 40 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 4: the non off side against Green Bay. 41 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 2: Look at it. 42 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 4: It wouldn't have been a first down I think would 43 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 4: have made it third and three or something like that. 44 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 4: It would have been third and manageable team. I would 45 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 4: have been okay with Rum and Wilson catching that ball. 46 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 4: That would have been too There were a couple of 47 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 4: opportunities that slipped away. It's good to see him more 48 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 4: involved in the offense, but there were a couple of 49 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 4: there's a long win to DK metcalf that got knocked 50 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 4: away from him. I mean there were a touchdown, Yeah, 51 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 4: it would have been a touchdown. There were some plays 52 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 4: the Steelers' offense left out in the field and then 53 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 4: you know, you pin him deep, you get a third 54 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 4: and long, and then that you know, that sort of 55 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 4: wounded duck ball up the right sideline to Craft that 56 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 4: went for fifty nine yards. That was like the turning 57 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 4: point of the game. But again, look at some point 58 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 4: you got to stem the tide somewhere. You've either got 59 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 4: to respond there and go on a long drive, or 60 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 4: you've got to come up with a stop and get 61 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 4: the ball back, or you've got to create a turnover. 62 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: They not only didn't create a turnover yesterday. 63 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 4: I know the Packers had two balls in the on 64 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 4: the ground that the Steelers didn't recover, and so that's 65 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 4: you know, you could call that a little bit of 66 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 4: bad luck perhaps, but they didn't do anything. They didn't 67 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 4: get any pressure on Love, they didn't create any turnovers. 68 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 4: And so I mean, ultimately, when you give up twenty 69 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 4: eight points and a half of football, you're not gonna win. 70 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 5: Well, they're not getting deep into the opponents side of 71 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 5: the field. Ever, everyone keeps saying, like the drivestalled, they're 72 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 5: not much of a drive when you're banging fifty six 73 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 5: yard field goals, right. 74 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 4: The other thing that that's like two first downs. Yeah, 75 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 4: Aaron Aaron rodd you know, they called it the high 76 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 4: red zone. Aaron Rodgers called it the high reds. They 77 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 4: got to be better there. They just they stalled, all 78 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 4: their drives stalled. I mean, you've, you know, thank goodness 79 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 4: for for Boswell. I mean, think about the fact that 80 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 4: they missed two field goals, right, you know they could 81 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 4: have to make they could have had forty last night. Yeah, 82 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 4: think about that, they could have forty points last night. 83 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 4: They missed field goals. And you have Boswell, who's just 84 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 4: incredible banging field goals through for you. He's a great 85 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 4: weapon for you. But you can't rely on that. You can't. 86 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 4: It's you know, and again I don't know whether I 87 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 4: don't know whether they're you know, what they're going to 88 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 4: do here, if they're going to try to, you know, 89 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 4: change their game plan or whatever. 90 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: But it's hard right now. 91 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 4: I think if you're the Steelers to trust that a 92 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 4: defense that's given up thirty or more points four times 93 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 4: in seven games, is gonna do what they've historically done, 94 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 4: which is win the game for you put it away, 95 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 4: you know, I mean often in the last several years, 96 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 4: when the students have had you know, other quarterbacks, you know, 97 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 4: between Ben Roethlisberger and Aaron Rodgers, guys that maybe you 98 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 4: didn't trust offensively on a third and six in a 99 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 4: game you're winning by three, so you punt it away 100 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 4: and trusted defense is gonna stop them. Well, this defense 101 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 4: is given up over thirty points. I mean, I'm not 102 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 4: giving it. This is no revelation. Just look at the numbers. 103 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 4: They've given up more than thirty points four times in 104 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 4: seven games. 105 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 5: Kenger, I'm just so fed up with seeing different players 106 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 5: on the field defensively every down. 107 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 7: Isn't it time for them to just stick with Holcombe 108 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 7: or Wilson or Peppers or Thornhill or Clark, Like, Let's 109 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 7: pick some defensive players and let them get in the 110 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 7: rhythm and let that communication actually start to work, because 111 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 7: I think what's lost in the translation of it all 112 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 7: is the constant changing of personnel. 113 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 5: It looks a situational football that allows the other team 114 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 5: to play that same chess game with you. 115 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, it's certainly. I mean, there's a lot 116 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 4: of things on defense, and so you know when you're 117 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 4: seeing guys, you know, look, people have said too many substitutions. 118 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 4: People have said they're too slow right in the secondary, 119 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 4: in the back end, you have these veteran guys you 120 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 4: brought in with great resumes, but they're too slow. And 121 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 4: we saw Tucker Craft running away from people at the 122 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,119 Speaker 4: tight end position last night. Well we're not talking about 123 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 4: Golden and Watson, who can fly, we're talking about the 124 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 4: tight end. He's a good one, as we saw last night, 125 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 4: but he's running away from people on and so you're 126 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 4: getting other teams are able to find what I'm sure 127 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 4: they're perceiving as mismatches, either schematically or personnel wise. You know, 128 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 4: I have Look, they made big plays down the field, 129 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 4: but they also just simply threw balls into the flat 130 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 4: and we're picking up ten twelve yards a rip on 131 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 4: plays that. You know, you throw a ball out in 132 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 4: the flat, it's first down. If you get six, you're pleased, right, Hey, 133 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 4: second and four, that's a really good play in the flat. 134 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 2: It just felt like they were getting more. 135 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 4: I haven't looked back at the numbers, but it felt 136 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 4: like they were getting a lot more than that in 137 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 4: the flat didn't. 138 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 5: Coach Tomlin kind of refute that in the post game 139 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 5: he was asked about it, He's like, Ah, that's not 140 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 5: why we gave up three hundred yards passing. 141 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 2: No, because they did give up. 142 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 4: I mean, you give up a fifty nine yard at 143 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 4: a craft and you give up other long plays that 144 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 4: you don't want to give up, and that's you know, 145 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 4: those make the yard to jad up. 146 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 2: But it was all part of it. 147 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 4: I mean, I think the point is that, you know, 148 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 4: there's a lot of things like that was my point. 149 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 4: There's a lot you know, so last week in Cincinnati, well, 150 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 4: you don't take away Chase, you don't take away Higgins. 151 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 2: But you also don't take away their running game. And 152 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 2: so teams are they okay job with that? 153 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 4: In the especially they did an excellent job on Jacob's 154 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 4: throughout the game. And then you know, Wilson started to 155 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 4: run the ball more effectively in the second half. But 156 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 4: again at halftime, if you told me, hey, sixteen to seven, 157 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 4: this is these are the rushing totals, right the Steelers 158 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 4: at eighty one. 159 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: I think the Packers had they had less than twenty. 160 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 4: I think, you know, here's the score, and you get 161 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 4: the ball to begin the second half. Okay, you know, 162 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 4: let's march down the field. Maybe stop, you know, settling 163 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 4: for a field goal. You punch one in and it's 164 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 4: twenty three to seven. Instead you go three and out. 165 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 4: You don't get a call. There's one that I'm sure 166 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 4: Roman Wilson it was a good play, but I think 167 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 4: it was Nixon defensively, yeah, you know, Wills. I'm sure 168 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 4: Roman would like to have that one back. Perhaps it 169 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 4: was a good play by Nixon though too. He's a 170 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 4: two time pro bowler, and there were some plays the 171 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 4: offense left out there. But ultimately, you know, when you 172 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 4: score twenty five points, you're gonna win a good portion 173 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 4: of your games. The Steelers almost always win them when 174 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 4: they score more than twenty almost always. And this is 175 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,119 Speaker 4: back to back weeks when that didn't happen. 176 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 5: Why do you think Arthur Smith came out in the 177 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 5: second half and got away from the running game, which 178 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 5: was paying dividends in the first half. 179 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 4: Well, I think some of it, and again I have 180 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 4: to would have to go back and look at each play, 181 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 4: but some of it was penalties, you know, the penalties 182 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 4: the Steelers had. The Steelers didn't rack up like one 183 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 4: hundred yards of penalties, but it felt like every penalty 184 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 4: was just a killer they got themselves, you know, there 185 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 4: was there were two after the whistle calls, one on 186 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 4: herbing on the punt that all of a sudden, now 187 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 4: when you're trying to stem the tide that gets the 188 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 4: Packers of the ball at your forty five yard line, 189 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 4: Well that's troublesome. And then you then on a draft 190 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 4: on a drive later in the fourth, you know you've 191 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 4: got the ball and you're and you're trying to you're 192 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 4: trying to, you know, make it third and manageable, and 193 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 4: instead after the play you get a fifteen yard penalty. 194 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 4: So now you have second in law and so second 195 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 4: in like eighteen or something, and they're just not equipped 196 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 4: to overcome those kind of things offensively. So I think 197 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 4: the penalties there weren't a ton of them, but they 198 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 4: really hurt. 199 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 2: The Steelers in this game too. When they became one dimensional. 200 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 5: It was over too because the pass rusher, like you said, 201 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 5: it was just insane. 202 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 2: This is was rather the turning point of the game. 203 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 4: Love in the shotgun gets the snap Steelers bringing pressure. 204 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 4: Love under duress flings it up, feel that it's. 205 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 8: Caught by Craft a lofting ball, and he brings it 206 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 8: in hustling down the right sideline, dragging defenders, gets inside 207 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 8: the thirty all the way down to the twenty six 208 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 8: yard line. It was a lame duck heaved up in 209 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 8: the air by Love. 210 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 4: And it's Craft who makes the adjustment to come back 211 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 4: and make the catch and get it all the way 212 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 4: down to the twenty six yard line where de Shawn 213 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 4: Elliott now is writhing in pain. 214 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 5: Thornhill lets him get almost thirty yards extra by not 215 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 5: wrapping him up there. Thornhill also misjudges the thirty three 216 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 5: yarder to Watson later in the game, which was also 217 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 5: you know, if Russ Wilson has the moonball, Jordan Love's 218 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 5: got the jump ball. 219 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, And then at the end of that Elliott got hurt, right, 220 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 4: And that's you know, we we've seen that movie with 221 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 4: at Elliott this year and it hasn't been good. 222 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 9: I know. 223 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 5: But I was saying this earlier with all of those 224 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 5: high priced, big name defensive stars, the fact that it's 225 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 5: Deshaun Elliott that makes the Jenga tower fall for them, 226 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 5: defensively is perplexing to me. 227 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, the I think it is safe to say, and 228 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 4: I don't think anybody. I don't see how you could 229 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 4: disagree with the fact that the whole does not seem 230 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 4: to equal to some of its parts right now. I mean, 231 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 4: you have very good players on that defense and for 232 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 4: whatever reason. Again, I'm not going to use adjectives to 233 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 4: describe it. I'm just going to say they've given up 234 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 4: thirty or more points in four out of seven games. 235 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 2: So you've got star power. 236 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 4: You've got guys you've given contract extensions to, You've got 237 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 4: guys that you've invested high draft picks in, and this 238 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 4: is not what you expected to say? 239 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 10: Is it like in baseball where just a whole team 240 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 10: is slumping like it's contagious? Because we talked the last 241 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 10: break with Jerry did about TJ. Watt not winning nearly enough, 242 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 10: not being impactful. But part of it is that all 243 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 10: the attention he's getting, somebody else has got to win 244 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 10: and nobody else on that line is winning it. 245 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 2: Well. 246 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 4: They had a couple of moments in this game, and 247 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 4: including that pass that loved just through. There were some 248 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 4: moments last week in Cincinnati in which the Steelers, who 249 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 4: have one of the heavier blitz percentages in the NFL 250 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 4: this year, aren't getting home. So I think the notion 251 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 4: that a lot of us had coming in was you 252 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 4: go out and get Ramsey. You have sleigh, you have porter. 253 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 4: This equips you to come up and play some brighter 254 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 4: coverage right now. This allows you to unleash the blitz. 255 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 4: So you go, your quarterback, you see the blitz coming, 256 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 4: You go to throw. Oh, he's not open because he's 257 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 4: being pressed with man coverage. Now in that second that 258 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 4: you have to try to look somewhere else or double clutch. 259 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 4: It too late, the blitz has gotten home and the 260 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 4: pass rush has gotten home, and neither one of those 261 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 4: things has been true. You know, the quarterback has been 262 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 4: able to stop throw quickly and find open receivers or 263 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 4: if he has to think again, he's got time. The 264 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 4: last couple of weeks, the blitz just hasn't gotten home. 265 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 4: You know what what is the issue? I don't know, 266 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 4: but I don't think it's you talk about. You know 267 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 4: you just mentioned you know personnel, you know, uh, guys 268 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 4: running in and out of the field. You know, teams 269 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 4: being able to use their best weapons to exploit your defense. 270 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 4: There's just a litany of issues right now, and they've 271 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 4: got to get it fixed because I mean this is, 272 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 4: you know, statistically, I believe they have the worst I 273 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 4: haven't seen the updated SATs. 274 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 2: I believe they have the worst pass defense in the league, 275 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 2: you know. 276 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 4: And and I mean it's uh, it's a tough way 277 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 4: to tough way to live. So what they're gonna do 278 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 4: and what the core issues are, it's difficult for me 279 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 4: to say, because I think there's more than. 280 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 5: One Rob King voice of the Pittsburgh Steelers here on 281 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 5: your radio home with the Black and Gold one on 282 00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 5: two point five d v E. The worst pass defense 283 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 5: in the league is the Cowboys, okay, and next worst 284 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 5: is the Steelers. But good news, we're full two yards 285 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 5: better a game than those guys right now, one and 286 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 5: a half yard still. 287 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 10: Here comes Michael Pittman, junior Tyler Warren and a best 288 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 10: running game in the league. 289 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, suddenly the Colts are formidable, right and 290 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 4: this has got it. I mean, look, man, you know 291 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 4: when the Steelers were off to the four and one start, 292 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 4: people said, and with some justification, look you know who 293 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 4: they really beaten. 294 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: That's that's any good. 295 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 4: Right, you played Seattle, you lost to them. You know 296 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 4: you got to you got you know, the Vikings, and 297 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 4: you get a couple of decent wins on your resume. 298 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 4: But what's gonna happen when you get into the teeth 299 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 4: of the schedule. And you know, my feeling has always 300 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 4: been like, just win the games early and you'll figure 301 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 4: out where you are and continue to progress. And now 302 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 4: you've lost too in a row, and you've got the 303 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,319 Speaker 4: top team in the AFC coming in and the Colts, 304 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:03,599 Speaker 4: and then you got to go on the road to 305 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 4: the Chargers. 306 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 2: You still haven't played the Bills. 307 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 4: You have two games against the Ravens, who are gonna 308 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 4: get everybody back and healthy. I mean, you know, at 309 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 4: least say the healthy one. This is life, This is 310 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 4: life in the NFL. But you've got to reverse the trend. 311 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 4: Lately you're still in first place. That's great. You've got 312 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 4: to reverse the trend because that won't last if you 313 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 4: continue to play like this. 314 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 2: They've got to they've got to find a way to 315 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: play better defense. 316 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 5: I think the issues are much bigger than anything that 317 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 5: we can really tackle, right, And this is what the 318 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 5: frustrating thing about is I think we're going to be 319 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 5: like talking about so much involving personnel and execution and 320 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 5: things like that. As the Steelers middle their way through 321 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 5: the muddle their way to the middle, I should say again, 322 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 5: And I honestly think that it's the message just gets lost. 323 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 5: Mike Sullivan was a great coach. He is now a 324 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 5: New York Rangers coach and not doing so great there 325 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 5: by the way, and the guy here doing great. I 326 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 5: just wonder if this message is getting through anymore, if 327 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 5: Mike Tomlin is as effective as he's capable of being. 328 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 5: Sometimes it's just that it stops resonating. It's it can 329 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 5: be that simple. It doesn't have to have anything to 330 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 5: do with ability. Everyone keeps saying, oh, he's gonna he'll 331 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 5: get snapped up in a second. And I know that 332 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 5: it's the middle of the season right now, or almost 333 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 5: of the middle of the season here, but that's gotta 334 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 5: be something that people are thinking about within the organization, 335 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 5: is are we gonna keep doing this every year? 336 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 4: Well, look, they need to, they need to make some adjustments. 337 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 4: And you know when I when when we talk about this. 338 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 4: So I think that each each season needs to be 339 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 4: judged on its own merit, you know, think about I mean, 340 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 4: just look around the NFL and and tell me what 341 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 4: happens to teams when they don't have a really good quarterback. 342 00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 2: Point to me, the teams that are winning without a 343 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 2: really quarterback. But that's not their problem. What's that? No? 344 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 5: No, no, But I'm saying that's what I'm saying. You 345 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 5: have to judge each season individually. It has been their 346 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 5: problem since Ben really probably since Ben surgery. 347 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 4: It has been their problem, right for six seven years. 348 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 4: And I mean, you know, Kevin Stefanski has won two 349 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 4: Coaches of the Year awards. Yeah, and his record is 350 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 4: what eight games below five hundred. He's had two winning seasons, 351 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 4: He's won Coach of the Year both the years. What's 352 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 4: happened the other three years in Cleveland disaster? And that's 353 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 4: and that's that's a coach of the year. And who 354 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 4: doesn't have a quarterback and can't win a game? And 355 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 4: so when when I when I think about Mike Tomlin 356 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 4: and what he's done, he has won games without quarterbacks. 357 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 4: I think most guys in the league can't do that. 358 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 4: So what's gonna happen? Now, Let's see, look right now, 359 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 4: the sky is falling the defense is not good, and 360 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 4: it's and you've lost two games in a row, and 361 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:58,239 Speaker 4: you're running. 362 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 5: Into the teeth of your schedule, games in front of 363 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 5: national audiences, embarrassing the shield, the organization. 364 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 4: Well, let's see what happens over the next stretch of games, 365 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 4: and let's see if they can, if they can turn 366 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 4: this thing around. I mean, you know, listen, we don't 367 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 4: want to again. I think there's a lot to like. 368 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 4: But but after these last two games, it does have 369 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 4: you scratching your head, particularly with the defense. 370 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 2: Well, you know, just a little emotional this morning. We 371 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 2: haven't slept. I mean two weeks ago. 372 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 10: Before that Bengals game, we were talking about the Steelers 373 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 10: being the number one seed in the AFC. 374 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,159 Speaker 2: I know, yeah, Now now you gotta find it. Now 375 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 2: you want to find her with a coach, the getting 376 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 2: all the players, you gotta regroup. I do like the 377 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 2: way I will see this. I do like the way 378 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,719 Speaker 2: the offense is trending. I think there's a lot of 379 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 2: things to like. 380 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 4: You know, when you when you talk about you know, 381 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 4: and I always talk about that first third of the season, 382 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 4: just win games, right, and then where you start to 383 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 4: trend in the middle third, of the season and then 384 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 4: you get into December and you got to start jocking 385 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,239 Speaker 4: for playoff position if you're one of those contenders. I 386 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 4: think the offense is doing that. I think the offense 387 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 4: is playing well enough to win, and I think the 388 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 4: offense is trending in the right direction. 389 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,360 Speaker 5: They just got to figure out the defense. We're twenty 390 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 5: eighth and total defense, by the way. 391 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, and the yardage I'm sure for the Steelers isn't 392 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 4: great either, But again, yardages and everything, and I'm talking 393 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 4: about for the offense, yardages and everything. 394 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 2: They're scoring some points. 395 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 4: They're scoring enough points to win, and they're definitely scoring 396 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,719 Speaker 4: enough points to win with traditional Steelers defenses. They're just 397 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 4: not getting a traditional Steelers defense. 398 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 6: Right now. 399 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 5: Power hour of Steeler Talk with the voice of the 400 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 5: Pittsburgh Steelers here on your radio home of the Black 401 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 5: and Gold one or two point five DV Rob King 402 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 5: with Us, brought to you this half hour by your 403 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 5: neighborhood Ford Store.

Sports Start brought to you by Bridgal Plots. 424 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 5: I want to take a little bit of a different 425 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 5: approach regarding where they are and how they can get 426 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 5: out of it. If they can get out, Okay, the 427 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 5: defense is not going seven games in. I'm gonna go 428 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 5: way out on a limb and say the defense is 429 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 5: not going to be historian. 430 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: Now, this is what it is. They don't have the people. 431 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 11: If they can figure out a way to solidify the 432 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 11: secondary a little bit, ben but don't break. Get back 433 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,199 Speaker 11: to getting a key tar over a key sack when 434 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 11: you need one. 435 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 2: They look like Keystone cops out there. 436 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 11: They have a chance to be just barely good enough. Yeah, 437 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 11: the offense has got to kick it in a gear 438 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 11: the rest of the way. If they're gonna win games, 439 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 11: they're gonna be scoring points. They are becoming the old 440 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 11: Bengals or maybe the current the current Bengals. You can 441 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 11: light it up, but you can't stop anybody. You just 442 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 11: hope you get the ball last, or you make one 443 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 11: more play than they do. 444 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 2: That kind of thing. 445 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 11: And you know, we talked a lot after the Bengals 446 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 11: game about DK Metcalf getting that ball ripped out of 447 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 11: his hands along the sidelines late in the second quarter. Yeah, 448 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 11: last night, a couple of plays. And this might sound 449 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 11: like I'm picking on Metcalf. Clearly there are many problems 450 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 11: and they are great, but they brought Dk Metcalf here 451 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 11: to be the stud, the Hammhager, the game changing wide receiver, 452 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 11: and last night They got a second and five at 453 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 11: the Packers twenty three first possession and they run, you know, 454 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 11: a little flanker screen to Metcalf. He gets called for 455 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 11: offensive pass interference. They lose ten yards, end up kicking 456 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 11: a field goal instead of maybe scoring a touchdown. The 457 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 11: guy covering him was named Carrington Valentine, who is a 458 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 11: seventh round pick out of Kentucky in twenty twenty three, 459 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 11: six foot, one hundred and eighty nine pounds. Now, he 460 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 11: has started twenty one career games going in the last night, 461 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 11: out of the thirty nineties played, he started the opener, 462 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 11: and then the Packers started a guy by naming Nate 463 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 11: Hobbs at corner. Up until last night, Hobbs was kneeling 464 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 11: a little bit of a knee injury. He was full 465 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 11: participant in practice, but they started Valentine. Valentine beats Metcalf onner. 466 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 11: You got to interfere offensively with a seventh round guy 467 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 11: out of Kentucky and your DK Metcalf. 468 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 2: That cost the Steelers. 469 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 11: Then let's fast forward to the second quarter, third and 470 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 11: three from the Green Bay thirty two. Rogers reads single coverage, 471 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 11: takes the shot deep, going for the throat going for 472 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 11: a touchdown Metcalf has in his hands and then it 473 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 11: gets knocked out by I guess who, Carrington Valentine. 474 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 2: That sounds like a like a soap opera character. If 475 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 2: you're gonna go in to this game, but he was dead. 476 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 2: If you're this game, call the corner, but not for me. 477 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 11: If you feeling wain to this game and tell me 478 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 11: DK Metcalf is gonna get multiple shots at Carrington Valentine. 479 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 2: I'm gonna like DK Metcalf's chances, oh for two and those. 480 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 10: Someone don't know much about Carrington Valentine, do you No? 481 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 5: No, I don't know anything, Valentine. 482 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 2: Maybe this guy's going to the Hall Fame. 483 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 11: Uh maybe the Green Bay guy in the pregame show 484 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 11: is gonna rewrite my funny Valentine and sing his praises next. 485 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 2: Week, Havington Valentine. 486 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 11: Now, let's go to the fourth quarter. All right, it's 487 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,919 Speaker 11: starting to get a little wobbly. It's to get it's no, 488 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 11: it gets world. Okay, it's twenty nine to nineteen, but 489 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 11: there's still ten to fifty one left when the Steelers 490 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 11: get the ball back, plenty of time for two possessions 491 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 11: and to get things going in the other direction. Jalen 492 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 11: Warren runs for five yards on second and seven, So 493 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 11: now it's third and two at the Pittsburgh thirty three. 494 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 11: But wait, there's more unnecessary roughness personal foul after the 495 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 11: play on number four, DK Metcalf. The down counts back 496 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 11: up fifteen yards. Now it's third and seventeen possession torpedoed. 497 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 2: That was a killer, for sure. 498 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 11: Can't be having this stuff from DK me now again, 499 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 11: can't be having this stuff from a lot of guys. 500 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 11: But if we're looking at this through the lens of 501 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 11: the offense has to save them, you really can't have 502 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 11: this stuff. 503 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,920 Speaker 6: From this Great players have to be great. 504 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,239 Speaker 5: That's why they should have kept George Pickens to you know, 505 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 5: calm down, DK Metcalf, You know, oh boy. 506 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: Saying I mean, I think the world of him is 507 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: a player. 508 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 11: I was extacted when they acquired him, and he's been 509 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 11: nothing but great with us, and I think he's a 510 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 11: hard worker and all that. 511 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 2: He's got to play better. 512 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 11: Not the only one. A lot of guys in that line. 513 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 11: It's gonna take a while. It's like going to get 514 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 11: the real ID. If you're gonna line up Steelers who 515 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 11: left to play better. It's gonna take about four hours 516 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,479 Speaker 11: to get through the line. But they're just you know. 517 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 11: I get that there are questions about the schematics. I 518 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 11: get that there are questions about the coaching. It's like 519 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 11: Patrick Queen said, win your reps, man, do your job, 520 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 11: make plays. 521 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 2: If you don't, you lose. 522 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 10: I also think that they got to play complimentary football, 523 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 10: like just just how in years past the defense knew 524 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 10: that the offense was gonna struggle with Kenny Pickett and 525 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 10: Trubisky and all the rest. 526 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 6: You got to pick it up. 527 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 10: You got to know the defense is struggling right now, 528 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 10: and you gotta not settle for threes. 529 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 2: You got to put it. 530 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 10: In the end zone early in games. Lean on teams, 531 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 10: maybe go up big. 532 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,159 Speaker 11: Maybe if Metcalf doesn't make that play, moving forward, you 533 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,359 Speaker 11: go forward on four and two. 534 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: Why not, it's the first home start. 535 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 5: Going for You can't play this Mike Tomlin ball of 536 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 5: let's low scoring, win by one score football. It's got 537 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 5: to be a shootout and like you said, hope you 538 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 5: got the ball last. 539 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 11: The other thing that's really alarming is the Cam Hayward 540 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 11: line quote. There's not a lot of fight in us 541 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 11: right now. And Patrick Queen talking about being timid and 542 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 11: guys losing their confidence and all the things that he said, 543 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 11: like buck up, there's ten for ten games to go. 544 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 11: You're in first place right now, but keep going away, 545 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 11: you going You're gonna. 546 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 2: End up in last place. 547 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 5: Is there a bet on FanDuel right now for whether 548 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 5: there'll be a player's only meeting this week?

They are four and three in their 560 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 11: two games in first place. And you know the NFL 561 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 11: reshuffles every week, and it's yes, just because it happened 562 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 11: yesterday doesn't mean it's going to happen next Sunday.

Frankly, that's 659 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 5: two prime time games in a row where they were embarrassed. 660 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 5: And Mike, it struck me that your dissertation you take 661 00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 5: down or rather just illuminating people to the fact that 662 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 5: you know, there's plenty of finger pointing to go around. 663 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody woke up this morning. 664 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 5: Going f and DK metcalf, But you know what, all 665 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 5: of those salient points, and I think you should think 666 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 5: about like creating weekly bedtime stories for people to purchase 667 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 5: so they can tell their kids. 668 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 2: Because the way you presented that was very matter of 669 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 2: fact in a way. 670 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 5: It is like, and let me tell you another thing, 671 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 5: and then he did this, and then he did this, 672 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 5: and it's a perfect. 673 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 2: Stuff. I mean, these kids are going to have issues. 674 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, maybe I can't sleep, nightmares, insomnia. 675 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 6: Again. 676 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 10: Giving up twenty one points in the fourth quarter at home, 677 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 10: Oh my god, that's non Steelers football. 678 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 2: No, it is definitely not. But I think they the 679 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 2: second half. Seven in the first half, twenty eight in 680 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 2: the second. 681 00:31:55,240 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 5: There are so many teams that respond to injury on 682 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 5: the defense and still get a performance. 683 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 2: I mean the Bengals did it well. 684 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, the injuries are no excuse. No, they're no excuse. 685 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 4: Everybody gets hurt. Everybody got everybody gets hurt. And Mike, 686 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 4: we're talking about too. Thirty five points and you missed 687 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 4: two field goals. 688 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 11: Yeah, because your coaching staff decided to go with the 689 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 11: old kicker who'd been hurt, right, instead of the new 690 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 11: guy who the week before made a franchise record sixty 691 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 11: one yard field goal. 692 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: I no, we don't want him kicking. 693 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 5: I think what you said earlier, though, Mike, is really 694 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 5: the tact that the Steelers have to take. It's that 695 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 5: the idea that you are the same team you thought 696 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 5: you were coming out in Week one needs to be abandoned. 697 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 6: Yeah. 698 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 11: We kicked that around a lot in the pregame show yesterday. 699 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 11: It's going into the year. I thought it was going 700 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 11: to be like most years. Okay, defense is going to 701 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 11: be pretty bad and the offense needs to do just enough. 702 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 11: I'm one hundred and eighty degrees from that. 703 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, well, it looked like that was going to 704 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 5: be the dynamic, and it's completely reversed. 705 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 11: And I'm not normally one that panics quickly when evaluating 706 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 11: this stuff. I get what the NFL is and how 707 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 11: it reshuffles every week, and it's up and down. And 708 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 11: you know, Rogers was talking last week about refusing to 709 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 11: ride the roller coaster. But these two performances back to back, 710 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 11: I think are demanding of a response, a significant response. 711 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 11: Try something different, because what they're doing is not working. 712 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,959 Speaker 5: The Steelers defense gave up thirty two points to the Jets, 713 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 5: thirty one points to the Seahawks, fourteen to the Patriots, 714 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 5: who fumbled it away five times. 715 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 2: Well, they had it knocked out of their hands five times. 716 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 2: I know, I know you want to give that. Okay, No, 717 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 2: A couple of those last night would have gone a 718 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 2: long way to a different results. Right, they're not getting that. 719 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 10: I needed five turnovers to they barely escape New England 720 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 10: with a win, and that's what they. 721 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 2: Got to be On defense. 722 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 11: They're going to give up yards, but they got to 723 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 11: just make those erase plays. 724 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 5: They gave up twenty one to the Vikings, nine to 725 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 5: the Browns, thirty three to the thirty five to the Packers. 726 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 5: And now you have the Colts next week at home, 727 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 5: the Chargers on the road, and the Chargers are kind 728 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 5: of turning things around after dealing with their injuries in 729 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 5: the backfield. Uh. And then you get Flacco on the 730 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 5: Bengals again and the Bears. The Bears are capable of 731 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 5: putting up some points. I think they had a bad 732 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,919 Speaker 5: game yesterday on the road and just kind of fell 733 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 5: flat and didn't know how to handle Snoop Huntly. 734 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:29,800 Speaker 2: But Bills Ravens Dolphins, you didn't know how to handle 735 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 2: Snoop Untley. No, they were. I think they were getting 736 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,280 Speaker 2: ready for a completely different offense. Maybe put NFL players 737 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 2: out there against them, But watch that. 738 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 5: I'm going to make excuses for the Bears because I 739 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 5: loved them going into the weekend. 740 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 2: Yeah you did. 741 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 10: They're not going to stop the run this week. I mean, 742 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 10: this is the best rushing team in the league. He's 743 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 10: got more touchdowns than anybody in the league. 744 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,879 Speaker 5: Well, the point I'm getting to Bill is, I don't 745 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 5: think there's a whole lot of games that coming up 746 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 5: here that I like the Steelers in the way they're 747 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 5: playing right now. And what is my confident level that 748 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 5: they can turn things around defensively, offensively, even with all 749 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:07,319 Speaker 5: the problems that you enumerated earlier, Mike, I think that 750 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 5: they can turn that around. But Rob, I mean, right now, 751 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 5: this is an uphill battle for Mike Tomlins to retain 752 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 5: his no losing season status. 753 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 4: It is hopefully they can turn it around quickly. I mean, 754 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 4: they've got to find a way. You know, we saw 755 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 4: the Ravens do that last year. They made some adjustments 756 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 4: in the middle of the season their defense was just awful, 757 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,879 Speaker 4: and then they made some adjustments to Steelers. Right now, Look, man, 758 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 4: I agree with Mike about the offense. There's they got 759 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 4: to be able to play better complimentary football. 760 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 2: You need far fewer three. 761 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 4: And outs where you're just getting the defense back out 762 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,400 Speaker 4: in the field again. But you got to find a 763 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 4: way to not give up thirty points again. And as 764 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 4: we mentioned, could have been forty in this one. This 765 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 4: was this You know, they've got to figure something out 766 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 4: between now in Indianapolis. 767 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,760 Speaker 5: Not just Taylor and what he's doing on the ground. 768 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:56,359 Speaker 5: The Colts have a renewed Daniel Jones. Did you see 769 00:35:56,360 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 5: any of that coming? No, No, you know they eight 770 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:01,279 Speaker 5: and nine last year. 771 00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,359 Speaker 4: You know, maybe and they beat the Steelers last year, 772 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 4: as we remember, they were eight and nine, and. 773 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 2: Uh, you know, he's our newman, right. 774 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 4: So we we maybe should have seen that there was 775 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 4: some capability there. But I didn't even think there was 776 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,919 Speaker 4: capability there. But it just goes to show you how 777 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 4: a quarterback can lift everything up. Daniel Jones has been 778 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 4: phenomenal for them and has lifted everything up. And you know, 779 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,439 Speaker 4: you keep thinking, well, they're not that good, and now 780 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 4: I think everyone thinks, yeah, they are that good. 781 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 2: So it'll be another big test. 782 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 10: You got to be killing yourself if you're the Vikings. 783 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 10: You had Donold and Danny Dimes last season. Well with 784 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 10: all of the injuries that they're suffering through right. 785 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 2: Now, and Aaron Rodgers wanted to play there. 786 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 12: Right, Well, they're going through the Bay yea. By the way, 787 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 12: they're going to go through the growing paint JJ McCarthy, right, 788 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 12: that's that's what It's gonna be, a growing paint season 789 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 12: for him. 790 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 2: You know. 791 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 4: But I didn't see it coming again because you have 792 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 4: a lot of faith in that coach, right, But. 793 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 10: They got weapons. Yeah, I got a lot of receivers. 794 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 10: Tyler Warren was a phenomenal drug. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 795 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 10: they got what I just meant, how good Danny Dimees 796 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 10: is doing this year. 797 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's good environment for him. It's Indiana Jones now 798 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 2: Indian Extra Stadium. 799 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 5: They're going to have a bulldozer competition on Saturday on 800 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 5: the field, so yeah, and then they're gonna do a BMX. 801 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 11: Yeah, there's a Batman remake that they're gonna Yes, yeah, 802 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 11: they're gonna refilled. 803 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 5: The Derby and then stomp the Broadway show. 804 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 2: That other than that, though, should be pretty good. Fine 805 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: walking around on stilts on the field. They get just 806 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 2: a little picked out Saturday.

Love, who at one point in 912 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 14: the game strung together twenty straight pass completions, finished twenty 913 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:48,280 Speaker 14: nine of thirty seven for three hundred and sixty yards 914 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 14: and three passing touchdowns. Craft was certainly his favorite target 915 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 14: on the night. He was targeted nine times by Love, 916 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 14: converting seven into catches for one hundred and forty three 917 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 14: yards and getting into the end zone twice. The Steelers 918 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,720 Speaker 14: strugg throughout the game to find an answer to Craft 919 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 14: in the Green Bay passing attack, and their defense has 920 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 14: now gone three straight games without forcing a turnover. On 921 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 14: top of that, Sunday Night was the fourth instance of 922 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 14: the season that the team surrendered thirty plus points in 923 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 14: a game. 924 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers turned into. 925 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 14: Decent performance in his first meeting against his former team, 926 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,400 Speaker 14: going for two hundred and nineteen yards and two touchdowns, 927 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 14: but it ultimately proved to be not enough to pull 928 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,719 Speaker 14: out the victory. Things won't get any easier for the 929 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 14: Steelers next week, as the Indianapolis Colts bring their league 930 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 14: best seven to one record into town. 931 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:31,760 Speaker 2: I'm Tom Opferman with the Steelers Report at FNB. 932 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 3: We rewrote the rules of banking and made getting everything 933 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 3: you need a whole
