1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: I posted a blog today about the college football playoff. 2 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: Oh this time, but bought was by eighty four Lomber 3 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:10,879 Speaker 1: by the way, and I don't want to debate the 4 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: new rankings because they're dumb. It's incredible the college football 5 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 1: refuses to adopt an objective system to determine a national 6 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 1: champion on the field. And that's not because they can, 7 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: it's because they don't want to. They want duovers for 8 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: brand names. 9 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 2: I said for. 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: Years, it's my blog today at wxdx dot com. Take 11 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 1: your top forty four programs, four divisions of eleven, all 12 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: aligned geographically. You play each team in your division once 13 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: home and away alternates from year to year. You can 14 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 1: have your four division winners play semis and then a final. 15 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: You can have your top two in each each division 16 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: play quarters, then semis, then a final, a no conference 17 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: championship game. Whoever finishes first in the conference is that 18 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: you're conference champion. If you want to use all the 19 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: old timey conference names like SEC, Big ten, knock yourself out, 20 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: that's no problem. But my way is one hundred percent 21 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: fairing on the field. And people say, what about the 22 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: tradition of the SEC in Big ten? But those traditions 23 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: like you think have been dead for years with all 24 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: that realignment and all the nil and all the transferring. 25 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: Just put Alabama and Auburn in the same division, call 26 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: it the SEC, Michigan and Ohio State and the same division, 27 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: call it the Big Ten. And that's that. I know 28 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is the right thing, but don't ever 29 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: do it. Let's go to Dan in the car. Dan, 30 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 1: you're all with Mark? 31 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 2: Hey? 32 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 3: Mark, Hey, I got two friends, and I got two bets. 33 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 3: I bet my one body depends weren't gonna make the playoffs. 34 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: I bet my other friend the Steelers are gonna have 35 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 3: a losing record for the first time in Tomlin's reign. 36 00:01:58,640 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 3: Which bet am I gonna win? 37 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: And? 38 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: Why? 39 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 4: Thank you? 40 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: I think both are like fifty to fifty. Which one 41 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: do you think is a better bet? 42 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 2: Uh? 43 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 5: Definitely the Steelers. I think. 44 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: I don't know, eight and nine. 45 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 6: I think this is going to be. 46 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 5: Eight and nine. 47 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, possibly seven and ten. 48 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 2: I think that the Penguins probably have a slightly. 49 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 1: Seven and ten. Boy, if they went seven and ten, 50 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: that'd be more glorious. 51 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: Than D Day. I don't know how much did you bet? 52 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: How much did you bet a hundred bucks, hundred bucks 53 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: each bet. 54 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 2: And who cares if you win or lose your chief skate. 55 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 2: Let's go to Don hundred bucks exactly what. 56 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 7: Hey, we live in a world where there's a total 57 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 7: lack of logic with pretty much everything the ESPN. Let's 58 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 7: call it tom lenitis that they suffer from. Where I 59 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 7: can give you four four big names. Rex Ryan, eyes 60 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 7: in at times, stephen A Smith. They talk in complete 61 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 7: conflict with one another. 62 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 1: Even even stephen A thinks Tomlin's time is up, but 63 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: he won't acknowledge that he's not doing a good job, 64 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: that he's never been a good coach. 65 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 2: Tom has never been a good coach. 66 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: But Rex Ryan, as part of the coaching fraternity, Eisen 67 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: and Tom what are well known friends. The best thing 68 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: you could do is not to trust anything said on ESPN. 69 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 1: It used to be the objective worldwide leader, and now 70 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 1: every single thing said comes with an agenda. And really 71 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: that's a trickle down from Pat. Pat's ruined it. 72 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 7: For sure. 73 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 2: Those those let's go to Randy. Randy, you're own with Mark. 74 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 5: Hey, you're in the deal now with all these Brian 75 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 5: backers forgetting how to tackle and all they're going to 76 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 5: do is punch the balls. If this is a high 77 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 5: speed team, they would be running laps. I'm tired of 78 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 5: saying that the runner gets an extra four or five. 79 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: I think, I think, I think coaches emphasized trying to 80 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: strip the ball because whoever wins the turnover battle wins 81 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: the game. Now, there's no reason why you can't wrap 82 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: up and try to strip the ball, which is not 83 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: which is not what we're seeing. You're right, we're seeing 84 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: guys just go slowly to strip the ball. What does 85 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: it all the time. 86 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 5: He doesn't, and he's rather successful at it, but other 87 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 5: guys are, and it's just they're giving up. They're giving 88 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 5: up too many yards. 89 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: It looks well, that's another that's another damnation of Tom. 90 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: When here's this guy supposed to be this great defensive coach. 91 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: The Steelers are one of the worst tackling teams I've 92 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 1: ever seen. 93 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 5: Absolutely did Mark. 94 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 2: Let's good to Joe, Joe, you're all with Mark? 95 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 8: Hey, Mark, I coach Tomlin. 96 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 9: He said it a press, he said, fans twenty twenty 97 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 9: three fat sads. He spoiled. That's how he likes to 98 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 9: keep the fans. 99 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 2: That's a while ago. But okay, to keep himself. 100 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 9: That way now, though I think it's focus the shift 101 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 9: that he's getting sassy with the press. There's an urgency 102 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 9: studies studies. 103 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: He's never respected the press, especially the local variety, in 104 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: terms of in terms of expectations being low and there 105 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 1: being no urgency, I disagree with that. I think this 106 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: team went all in this year to win a playoff game. 107 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: I think the urgency is there. I just don't think 108 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: the talent or the acumen is in terms of coaching 109 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: the ladder, and they just don't know what to do. 110 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: Urgency dissipates when you don't know what to do. 111 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: If there's no logical path to get to where you want, 112 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 1: then then what's the point being urgent? 113 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 2: You basically get confused. 114 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 10: I think it's comfort, But do do do. 115 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: Dude, if you think there is any comfort in that 116 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: organization now beyond Tom Win knowing he can't lose his job, 117 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: and in terms of them knowing they look like the 118 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: biggest bunch of black and gold hypopsychloid dinks that they 119 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: look like their organization is falling apart. 120 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 2: If you don't think there's pressure. 121 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: On Art the second as much as there is on 122 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: the guy who can't get fired. If you don't think 123 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: there's pressure on Tomlin as much as there can be 124 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: on a guy who can't get fired. 125 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,239 Speaker 2: Oh, you're not paying attention. Let's go to Paul. 126 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 10: Hey Mark. How you doing today? 127 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 2: Hi, Paul. 128 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 10: Hey Mark. Did you happen to hear De Courcy's comments 129 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 10: talk with Tim Benz yesterday by any chance when you 130 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 10: were out? 131 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 2: Obviously? I did, not being out in all. 132 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 10: I was just surprised because De Coursey was very, very 133 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 10: in defense of Tomlin. 134 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: He's a Tomlin guy. He's a Tomlin guy. Mike's one 135 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: of the most knowledgeable people in sports. He's a great writer. 136 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 1: He's one thousand percent wrong on this. 137 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's what's the surprising part. Today He's pretty pretty 138 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 10: good objectively with the Steelers and most other talks. 139 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: Well, Mike, Mike is exemplary, and I should I should 140 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: really ask him about this next week. Mike is exemplary 141 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 1: of a certain group of media and fans too for 142 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: that matter, who have decided that Mike Tomlin is right 143 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: and everybody else is wrong. No matter what, they have 144 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: removed his level of success from the equation when evaluating him. 145 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 10: Well, it was a lot of the same, you know, 146 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 10: things him saying about like how he won with picket 147 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 10: and a lot of the guardage that kind of comes 148 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 10: up when in defensive. 149 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 2: What what did he win with picket? I find that 150 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 2: hard to believe that that was said. 151 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 10: Well, that they, you know, were close to the playoffs 152 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 10: they won. I think was it nine games the picket 153 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 10: when Pickett was the primary start? I can't even remember 154 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 10: because there's been so many. 155 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go to a break. I don't want to 156 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: talk about Kenny effing Pickett. I mean, come on, that's 157 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: a bit passe a, not only at the Pittsburgh level, 158 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: but at the NFL level.

This isn't a hiccup. 177 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: It's the decline and fall. We've been witnessing the decline 178 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: for a while, but it feels like it's finally gonna 179 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: go splats and that would be a good thing. You 180 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: may not think so, but it would be a good thing. 181 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: Time for calls on the fifteens dial. Now, I took 182 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: too many last segment, but you can still get a 183 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: line eight three three, four to one two WSDX. 184 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: Let's go to Matt. Matt, you're on with Mark. 185 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 6: Hey, Mark, how are you doing today? 186 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: Good night? 187 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 6: So I was watching a clip, a YouTube clip from ESPN. 188 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 6: I'm not sure who it was that said it, but 189 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 6: she said she was blaming the quarterback situation, and she 190 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 6: said Tomlin was able to take the Steelers deep in 191 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 6: the playoffs every year when he had been which. 192 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 2: Was that's just not true. That's just not true. 193 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin's only won a playoff game in four of 194 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: his eighteen seasons today. 195 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 6: Right, I mean he should have. 196 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,679 Speaker 2: No, No, you're right. 197 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: But what said on the air and in particular on 198 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: ESPN about Tomlin and his tenure and his acumen is 199 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 1: like eighty percent lies, and nobody at the table on 200 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: like Get Up those shows ever calls out the lie 201 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: when it's told, right. 202 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,599 Speaker 6: And that one was completely false. And it's like you 203 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 6: can put somebody in the national It's like someone in 204 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 6: the national media can get hired into one of these 205 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 6: platforms and not know anything about Tomlin. 206 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 2: No, no, no, they know. 207 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: They're just they're in a lot of cases willfully spreading 208 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: misinformation because they just think Tomlin's Like I said, there 209 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: is a great hesitation to criticize the NFL's pre eminent 210 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: black coach. That is maybe a bigger fact than I'm emphasizing. 211 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: But I'm the only person who bothers to say it 212 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 1: at all. Frankly, who has the guts. 213 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, it's it's just a disappointing thing to 214 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 6: see happen to the season again. 215 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 2: Oh no, I think it's hilarious. But thank you for 216 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 2: the call. 217 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: And by the way, just to show you that it's, 218 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: you know, not all about race with me, and it's not. 219 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: But they got adam feelen, they got older, they got whiter. Obviously, 220 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: when your team's not playing well and it's two thirds 221 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: the way that through the season, and you're facing a 222 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,080 Speaker 1: game you really gotta win this Sunday at Baltimore, so. 223 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 2: What you need to do is get older and whiter. 224 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: The answer is to bring in thirty five year old 225 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: white boy Roy and put them on the outside to 226 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: catch balls. 227 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: Of course I'm being sarcastic. 228 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: If there's ever a team that couldn't afford to get 229 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: any older and whiter, it's the Steelers.

He 283 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: covers the team for the Post Gazette. Always a pleasure 284 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: to chat with. Jerry Dulac Jerry. How can the Steelers 285 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: stop Baltimore's running game with Derrick Henry? 286 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 2: And is that the number one order of the day? 287 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 4: Well, market better be, and certainly we haven't seen it. 288 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 4: The last two games in Baltimore within three weeks of 289 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 4: each other last year, Henry ran for three forty eight 290 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 4: of the Ravens five nineteen mark. That's a staggering total 291 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 4: in two games, five hundred and nineteen yards rushing, especially 292 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 4: when the larger amount came after they galled them the 293 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 4: first time. And you think they would say, wa ain't 294 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 4: letting that happen happen again? But they did it. Not 295 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 4: only happened again, they got pushed around, they got manhandled, 296 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 4: and that, of course is what spawned their offseason moves, 297 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 4: drafting two defensive lineman, a big outside linebacker like Jack Sawyer, 298 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 4: trading for Jalen Ramsey, a big, physical cornerback, and so 299 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 4: we'll see how it works. Not a good prelude to 300 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 4: Baltimore by giving up two forty nine rushing to the 301 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 4: Buffalo Bills. So you know, what happened was an example 302 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 4: of what can happen here, except that I think the 303 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 4: Ravens have a lot more weapons than the Bills, but TJ. 304 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 4: Watt said after the game that their ability to run 305 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 4: the ball affected the Steelers' ability to rush. Josh Allen, 306 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 4: who was sacked eight times a previous week, was chased 307 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 4: all over the field. In addition to that, Steelers didn't 308 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 4: get to them once and the Bills were playing without 309 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 4: two of their starting offensive tackles. That's how the run 310 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 4: game can affect the pressure. But so that's going to 311 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 4: be priority Number one is stopping Derrick Henry in the 312 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 4: run game. We don't see Lamar Jackson. We haven't this year. 313 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 4: I'm sure because of his injuries. He's just not running 314 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 4: as much. He doesn't look like the same player, but understandably, so. 315 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 1: Yes, stay with that because it's it's now three games 316 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: in a row he's not rushed for over thirty yards, 317 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: which is the first time that's happened his career. 318 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 2: What is wrong with him? 319 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: It is still the hammy or they hasn't tend to 320 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: put it at risk to turn him loose. And when 321 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: will that end? I mean, might they try more? In 322 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 1: a game with such implications as Sundays. 323 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 4: You know, Mark, you would think each week he goes 324 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 4: it probably gets whatever his injuries or whatever's bothering him, 325 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 4: probably gets a little better, maybe you would think. And 326 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 4: I know the wear and tear pair each week affects 327 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 4: you as well. Small example, he practiced yesterday, Well he 328 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 4: hasn't been. I think it's the first time he's practiced 329 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 4: on Wednesday all year. And maybe that's a sign that 330 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 4: he's feeling better. Maybe that's a sign that he knows 331 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 4: it's the Steelers and first place is up for grabs. 332 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 4: But yeah, he just hasn't been the same two time 333 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 4: MVP type of player. And what I saw against the 334 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 4: Bengals surprise me even more. His inaccuracy. One thing about 335 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson he doesn't get enough credit for. He's extremely 336 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 4: a high percentage passer and that's going down the field 337 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 4: seventy percent completion and you know his he makes. He 338 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 4: can make all the throws, whether he can drill it, 339 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 4: whether he can touch it. And what I saw against 340 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 4: Cincinnati was a guy who it just wasn't the same quarterback. 341 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 4: He hasn't looked the same for most of the year. 342 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 4: And the Bengals game was a prime example. 343 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: Where's the Baltimore defense at Jaron? What do you think 344 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: the Steelers approach will be come Sunday. 345 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 4: Offensively, Well, it's get Yeah, it's getting better. Mark and 346 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 4: I think getting to move Kyle Hamilton into the role 347 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 4: where they could use him whatever the case may be, 348 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 4: whether the line of scrimmage or whether dropping him, you know, 349 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 4: as a dime linebacker, the nickel slock guy. However, that 350 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 4: gives him the freedom to play. You know, they like 351 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 4: to say he's there, Troy Paula mala let me tell 352 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 4: you he's good, But he ain't Troy Paula Maler. But 353 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 4: and I think you know they've been without him Duque 354 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 4: all year and that's a big blow to their defensive line. 355 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 4: But they've gotten healthy. Rokwan Smith has been back now 356 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 4: four or five games. You know, you see their defense 357 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 4: getting better. At the beginning of the year, it was 358 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 4: certainly a defense that was very on Ravens like. But 359 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 4: they've gotten a little bit better. But they're still they're 360 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 4: not the shutdown defense that they used to be. 361 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: Marking Jerry, Uh, what's Rogers's status? I mean, we know 362 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: he's gonna play, should he what percents he at? Would 363 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: playing Rudolph on one hundred be more advisable? I know 364 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna go with Rogers, but I thought he looked 365 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: like such a fraction in this lost is past week 366 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: against Buffalo. 367 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, Mark, and he wasn't a whole lot better than 368 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 4: the previous week or his his previous game as well. 369 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 4: And I know he got hurt in that game, but 370 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 4: the first half wasn't terribly good either. But you know, yeah, Mark, 371 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 4: he's going to play, you know, each week. I'm sure 372 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 4: he'll feel more comfortable this week than he did last week. 373 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 4: And what you know, what level of comfort that is, 374 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 4: I can't quantify, but I don't think there's any question 375 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 4: for that first half. He just looked uncomfortable to me, 376 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 4: and probably because you know he's he's you know, focusing 377 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 4: worried about his wrisk. What happens when I take a hit, 378 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 4: what happens when I fall? Well you found out in 379 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 4: the third quarter when Joey Bosa jumped on him from 380 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 4: behind and and out came the ball. So you know 381 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 4: he has to protect himself when he goes to the 382 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 4: ground because you know that risk is fractured. So I 383 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 4: think he'll feel because he came through the game. Okay, 384 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 4: not a question of pain with them, you know, Mark, 385 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 4: They tell me that he is one tough ombre and 386 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 4: I believe it, you know, so that you know, is 387 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 4: he afraid of the risk? Is he feeling the pain? No, 388 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 4: but I'm sure he's very much aware of it, and 389 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 4: I think some of that will subside. We heard Mike 390 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 4: Tomlins say the other day that you know him if 391 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 4: you won't see him solely in the pistol and the shotgun. 392 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 4: So you might even see him behind center. Well I'll 393 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 4: wait to see that, but maybe he will be. But 394 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 4: the other thing, you notice, all his pitch plays and 395 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 4: toss plays were all to the right with his right hand. 396 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 4: Nothing went to the left. So you know, we'll see. 397 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 4: But you know there are instances where that makes a difference. 398 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 4: You know when some of those third and four, third 399 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 4: and threes, you know where it's run or passed, and 400 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 4: you know where he could turn his back to the 401 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 4: line of linus scrimmage from under center. Well, not being 402 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 4: under center limits them in that regard. There's no question 403 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 4: they're limited by That doesn't mean it's it's, you know, 404 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 4: something you can't overcome, but it's certainly had to limit 405 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 4: them and him, especially in some form. 406 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: We're talking to Jerry Dulak. He's brought this by bud Light. 407 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: Easy to drink, easy to enjoy. Jerry, can you venture 408 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: a guess where Rogers's head is at? Because when he 409 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: speaks now, he looks like a pow like like maybe 410 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: a ward time president. He just looks like he hasn't 411 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: gotten what he bargained for. 412 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 4: Well, Mark, I think a lot of that is. You know, 413 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 4: he's wearing the tossle cap. The beard's coming in now 414 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 4: pretty full. You know, he has a cut on his nose. 415 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 4: He looks like a war torn vet, you know, right 416 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,479 Speaker 4: out of the battlefield, if you will. But you know 417 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 4: it's that time of year, and I can't speak to 418 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 4: his psyche or where he is in terms what he 419 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 4: feels about the team. I think I haven't gotten any 420 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 4: sense that whatever he thought before has wavered. But you 421 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 4: know what, Mark, it has to have wavered. He'll never 422 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 4: say it, and I know, you know, I know everybody 423 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 4: wants to. He threw John O'smith, John Who Smith under 424 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 4: the bus last week, which effectively he did saying he 425 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 4: changed the call. John who didn't get it. He ran 426 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 4: one way and he threw it the other. And so 427 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 4: you know, with guys, maybe not being able to get open. 428 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 4: You know, when you get to the scrambled drill, how 429 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 4: about guys finding some way to get open. You just 430 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 4: don't see that. So, yeah, there's probably some amount of 431 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 4: disgust in there, but I don't think he's really showing it. 432 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 4: I think when he shows disgust, Mark, I honestly believe it. 433 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 4: It's some of the questions he keeps getting asked, because 434 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 4: I know he's not a fan of It's not so 435 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 4: much he's not a fan of the questions. I think 436 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 4: he thinks a lot of the questions are kind of stupid. 437 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 4: So I think some of the disgust you see isn't 438 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 4: reflective of what he's seeing on the field, but rather 439 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 4: in the postgame interview. 440 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: Session, Jerry, why did the secondary turn out so bad? 441 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: With Slay now gone and Thornhill haven't departed earlier? It 442 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 1: was supposed to be a strength and here we are 443 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: after twelve games. It's still a work in progress. 444 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, Mark, First of all, I always thought Thornhill was 445 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 4: an add on. I don't think he was a big 446 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 4: part of their plan. When when they kind of stated that, 447 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 4: you know, okay, one hit Thornhill back there, I thought 448 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,959 Speaker 4: it was a bit of a reach Darius Slay. You know, 449 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,439 Speaker 4: Tarol Austin had him in Detroit, and so Darius Slay 450 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 4: is a good corner, But Darius Slay in Detroit was 451 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 4: twenty eight and twenty nine, not thirty four. And at 452 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 4: some point in your career, mark your ability to run 453 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 4: isn't as good as it used to be. And you know, 454 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 4: Darius Slay was looking like a thirty four year old corner. 455 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 4: So the plan to bring in Slay ten million dollars 456 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 4: for a year, which still amazes me, trade for Jalen 457 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 4: Ramsey and pair them with Joey Porter, the plan to 458 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 4: quote run and cover with anyone, which are Mike Tomlin's words. 459 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 4: That's all out the window now because Slay's gone and 460 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 4: Ramsey's at safety. And so the test for their off 461 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 4: season plan from Sunday in Baltimore when they made all 462 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 4: the all the you know, the decision in the off 463 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 4: season to draft big two defensive linemen, a big outside 464 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 4: linebacker in Jack Sawyer, trade for Jalen Ramsey, a big 465 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 4: physical cornerback, and you do all that because of the 466 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 4: way you got pushed around and manhandled by the Ravens 467 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 4: in the playoff game. So now we'll see if test 468 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 4: number two because test number one failed. We saw that 469 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 4: in Cincinnati in the first game. Now we'll see if 470 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 4: you know their off season plan to get bigger and 471 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 4: more physical because of the Ravens, We'll see how that 472 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 4: works out. 473 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 2: Jerry DJ Watt isn't terrible. 474 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 1: Just for a guy making forty one mil on his 475 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: new deal, has he lost a step? I mean, I 476 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: just would not have given him that deal, and I 477 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 1: feel like he's done nothing but prove me right. 478 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 5: Mark. 479 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 4: You know, they knew at the time that it could 480 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 4: be a bad business decision because they know what they 481 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 4: were getting locked into. But when you're paying a guy 482 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 4: that much money and guaranteeing him one hundred eight million dollars, Look, 483 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 4: I'm not going to sit here and say TJ. Watt 484 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 4: is awful, because he's not. But when you're paying a 485 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 4: guy that much money, you better be getting at least 486 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 4: fifteen sacks a year. And he's thirty one years old. 487 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 4: Now you're seeing what Miles Garrett does. The money he's gotten, 488 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 4: he's worth it. He's been worth every penny with nineteen 489 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 4: sacks already and terrorizing backfields, and it just hasn't been 490 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 4: the same TJ. 491 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 2: Watt. 492 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 4: Is he terrible by no stretch, But is he playing 493 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 4: like he's worth one hundred and eight million guaranteed or 494 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 4: is he producing like he's worth a hundred and eight 495 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 4: million guarantee. They're paying him because of his ability to 496 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 4: sack and disrupt the quarterback, and you know, seven sacks, 497 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 4: we're not seeing it, Mark, And so you know, that's 498 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 4: kind of I don't want to say that's what they 499 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 4: were worried about, but they knew when they made that deal. 500 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 4: It's kind of like, you know, you're almost topped between 501 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 4: the rock and a hard place. It's TJ Wat, your 502 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 4: defensive former defensive player of the year, the star of 503 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 4: your defense. And so they give them the money based 504 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 4: on not only probably more so on what he had 505 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 4: done than maybe on what they thought he could do 506 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 4: or would do going forward. But yeah, it was a 507 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 4: big time commitment and they're not getting they're not getting 508 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 4: the bang for their buck. And that's been to me, 509 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 4: it's been a problem with the defense. 510 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: What kind of snap does Adam Thielen get on Sunday 511 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: And why not just finally throw to Pat fryar. 512 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 4: Mood Well, Mark, my feeling is is you identify first 513 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 4: of all the best players on your offense. Who are they? 514 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 4: Dk Metcalf, Pat fryar move Jalen Warren if you feel 515 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 4: he's your top running back, and nothing against Kenny Gamewell, 516 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 4: who's been really good. But if they're your best players, 517 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 4: then you play them predominantly and you sprinkle everybody else 518 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 4: in around them. How Pat Fryermuth plays only seventeen snaps 519 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 4: at this point of the season, And don't tell me 520 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 4: it's you know, it depends week the week on the 521 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 4: game plan, not when you're in week fourteen, Mark, it doesn't. 522 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 4: And so to me, you make sure Pat fryer moose 523 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 4: on the field. He doesn't go out in past formation 524 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 4: nine times for those measly seventeen snaps. Don't tell me 525 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 4: it's because you only had forty three offensive snaps. I 526 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 4: don't care. He should be playing thirty four or thirty 527 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 4: five of them and rotate all the other guys. I 528 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:29,239 Speaker 4: get all about situational football, Mark, I'm well aware of 529 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:33,959 Speaker 4: the game today with substitution packages and personnel packages. But 530 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 4: you put your best players on the field and sprinkle 531 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 4: in the others and tell the other team Okay, you 532 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 4: come stop us. If they're your best players, use them. 533 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 4: If they're your guns, you shoot them. And so to me, 534 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 4: that's been a failure of this offense to develop the 535 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 4: consistency that they're looking for. And you know what, time's 536 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 4: running out, Mark, no more time. Just keep playing those games, 537 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 4: you know, take advantag into the best players you have 538 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 4: and use them and try and win that way. 539 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: Finally, Jerry, I know Baltimore struggling too, and we've talked 540 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: about Lamar not being one hundred percent. The Steelers really 541 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 1: feel like they're gonna have to upgrade themselves quite a 542 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: bit to even hang. 543 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 2: In this game. 544 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 4: You know, Mark, they have had. The funny thing is, 545 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 4: despite what happened last year in those two games of 546 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,719 Speaker 4: Baltimore again, their success in Baltimore in big games has 547 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 4: been really good. Now, look, I know that's the past, 548 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 4: and the past doesn't necessarily have anything to do with 549 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 4: what goes on Sunday. But every week, everybody, including myself, 550 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 4: we keep waiting for those bounce back games because we've 551 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 4: seen it from the Steelers before. We thought it would 552 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 4: be a Green Bay, and we thought it would be Chicago, 553 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 4: and we thought it would be Buffalo, and maybe everybody's thinking, Okay, well, 554 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 4: this is a game that they're going to be the 555 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 4: team that we saw against Indy, the team that we 556 00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 4: saw against Minnesota. And you look at some of their 557 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 4: first half sta'ven pretty good four halftime lead marks, leads 558 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 4: mark and they have blown them all three of which 559 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 4: were at home, so you know, first and foremost. And 560 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna morph back into one of those 561 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 4: old Steeler Ravens games. I don't think it's thirteen to ten, 562 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 4: but I don't think it's thirty four to twenty eight either. 563 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 4: But I think if they're gonna win the game, it's 564 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 4: gonna have to be like what we saw the Bengals 565 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 4: do on Thanksgiving Night. And I know the Ravens gave 566 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 4: them two touchdowns back with dropping it at the goal 567 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 4: line and the penley did negated the touchdown. But that's 568 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 4: the way they're gonna. 569 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 5: Have to win. 570 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 4: It's gonna have to be with their defense, and it's 571 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 4: gonna have to be with some timely turnover takeaways. 572 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: Jerry, I can't decide is Aaron Rodgers when he's doing 573 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: interviews and looking more like a pow or award time president. 574 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it might be somewhere in between, Mark, but yeah, 575 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 4: it's And you see, he doesn't change expression a whole lot, 576 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 4: and his voice doesn't vary a whole lot. So yeah, 577 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 4: he's He's an interesting case study, there is no question 578 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 4: about it. But I will say all in all, he's 579 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 4: been He's been very cooperative with the media, even though 580 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 4: I know he's not a big fan of some of 581 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 4: the questions he's asked. 582 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 2: Jerry, great stuff, enjoy the game. We'll do it next week. 583 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 4: All right, Mark, you got it, man. 584 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: Jerry, do you like broadcast by bud Light, Easy to drink, 585 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 1: easy to enjoy, don't forget I'm Adinos tonight in Latrobe 586 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: to watch the Penguin game.

There was a celebration down town 607 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: today that a lot of people attended. I was doing 608 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: a radio show, but I was certainly there in spirits. 609 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: Now it's time to ask Mark anything brought to you 610 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: by People's Natural Gas, People's Hyphengas dot Com. Uh, let's 611 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: go to Manny Manny, ask Mark anything. 612 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 4: Hey, Mark. 613 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 15: So, I'm actually expecting the Steelers to finish eight to nine, 614 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 15: and I don't anticipate that the fire Tom and Chance 615 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 15: are going to go away anytime soon. 616 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 8: And I can actually see it happening at the. 617 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 1: Draft, and I know they're just not firing him though, 618 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I agree with you. There's a very real 619 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: potential that if this team doesn't write itself dramatically, that 620 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: the draft is going to be ruined by irate Steeler 621 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: fans who do chance fire Tomlin and maybe even sell 622 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: the team. And to be honest, if you want to 623 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: hit Art where it hurts, that's the way to do it. 624 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 2: Because this draft was his dad's dream. It's been his dream. 625 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 1: If you're dissatisfied, the way to show it is to 626 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: ruin the draft. 627 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 8: I agree with that, but that's what I was going 628 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 8: to ask you if he would much rather, you know, 629 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 8: suffer through that humiliation or or break family tradition and 630 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 8: actually fire the coach. 631 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 2: But he's not going to fire the coach. Let's go 632 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 2: to Greg. Hey, Doublem, good afternoon, Good afternoon. 633 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 16: I just wanted to ask how people in Pittsburgh are 634 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 16: steel Steelers fans and after almost ten almost ten years 635 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 16: of no playoffs, not. 636 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 2: Winning a playoff game, you got it incorrect? Oh, I'm sorry, Yeah. 637 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: Because that's what they do. That that's a Pittsburgh tradition. 638 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: It's And to be honest, being a fan of a 639 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: team has never been about winning. 640 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 7: Not to me. 641 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: I support the team no matter what, but I also 642 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: express my dissatisfaction and I also expect my team to 643 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: change things when things have gone wrong for significant period. 644 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 1: And that's the most frustrating part about the Steelers. Things 645 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: have gone wrong for an extended period, but they show 646 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: no sign of changing even a little bit, not even 647 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: in the most minor way. 648 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 16: Absolutely, and I love the Steelers. That just sucks to 649 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 16: see them at this state under the Tomlin regime. 650 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 1: I don't love the Steelers, and I find this hilarious. 651 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: Let's go to Ben Ben ask Mark anything, I said, 652 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: good day? 653 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 5: Hey, if Tom would happen to go coach. 654 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 15: At college team, He's not going. 655 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 1: To He's not going to Goodbye. Do I think Tom 656 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 1: would be a good college coach. No, He's never recruited 657 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 1: at that level. I mean, was he a college assistant 658 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: for a while. I think he might have been.
