1
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Please. He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson

2
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:12,559
Speaker 1: on Home of the Black and Gold Steelers Nation Radio.

3
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Drive. I'm Dale Lolly here with Matt Williamson.

4
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: It's a Thursday, but a Wednesday. Wednesday. It's kind of

5
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: a Wednesday type practice day for the Steelers as they

6
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: get ready to play the Bears on Monday night. Uh,

7
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: they practice today. Ben Roethlisberger putting in a limited day

8
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: of practice, Chris Boswell limited today with the concussion. That's

9
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: that's what you want. That's what you want. That's the step,

10
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: the next step in in concussion protocols to get out

11
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: there and do some physical activity. So it looks like

12
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: he's progressing well, be explained a million times, but I

13
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: mean tomorrow if there's any ill effects from doing stuff,

14
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: even kicker stuff. You know. He's the nice thing for

15
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 1: the Steelers is they do have that extra day, right,

16
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: that's a good point. So yeah, he's on course. Uh.

17
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: Boswell with with was limited. B J Finney with a

18
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: back issue was limited. Get hurt, stuff happens stuff. Yeah. Uh.

19
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: Eric Kee Brown with the hamstring was the only one

20
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: who did not practice, and then Cam Hayward with an

21
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: ankle was limited. Um, that's kind of been what they've

22
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: been doing. They Here's the thing with Cam Hayward. He

23
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: he never likes to not practice because he wants to

24
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: set a good example for everybody. So they have to

25
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: list him with some kind of injury on there to

26
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: keep him out of practice. Okay, but it can't be

27
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: a coach's decision. Okay, that's he's not cool with that. Yeah,

28
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: he's not cool with that. They're gonna put him on.

29
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: There was something so got Ben Today he was limited,

30
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: but the Wednesday he was the first one. Yeah. Um,

31
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: so all in all, not bad, not bad at all. Yeah,

32
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: I mean, considering where we're at in the season. I

33
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: know there was just a bye week very recently, but

34
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,679
Speaker 1: still you could be a lot worse injury wise. Um,

35
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,119
Speaker 1: do you have any Bears news? I keep getting asked

36
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: about Kalil Matt no idea, I know. I mean it's

37
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: a little early, maybe two. Well today it will be

38
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: the day we would get at least some kind of inclination.

39
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, I've seen not. I mean I can scour

40
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: and stuff. I know it's Aboday night game, but it

41
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: is Khalil Mack involved or not. And I've also heard

42
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,839
Speaker 1: David Montgomery might actually get involved this week. I see,

43
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: I heard exactly the opposite. I heard he's not back

44
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 1: until at least week eleven after their bye week. I

45
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: wouldn't rush them back, that's for sure. Herbert was really good. Yeah,

46
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: I in fact, I heard that this morning. So I

47
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: heard it earlier in the week, and that was from

48
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: somebody on the on their beat. So okay, okay, I

49
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: don't think he comes back off and I certainly wouldn't

50
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: rush him back. That's one position that they have bad shape.

51
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: Nothing here on their website. I'll even listing injury or

52
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: thing on here. So teams are goofy about kind of

53
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: are uh. They did get Mattneggy back from the for

54
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,959
Speaker 1: better or worse. I mean, I do know. I'm not

55
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: being hard on the coaches. I mean, he GE's probably

56
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: more heat than he deserves because things aren't going. He's

57
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 1: an easy target. But um, I found it curious that

58
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: Fields had his best day rushing the day that Naggie

59
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: wasn't on the sidelines or preparing the theme. Coincidence, I

60
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: don't know. I think Naggy seat is very, very warm

61
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: and when we you know, a week ago when it

62
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: came out, you know he's a MRS game because of

63
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: COVID related trust me. I mean all the Bears fans

64
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: that had followed me were thrilled, you know what I

65
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: mean there, he's not the most popular dude. And a

66
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: little note that they did do today, Yes, who they

67
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: signed to whether practice squad? I don't know. I didn't

68
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: see that it would be Cassious Marsh bringing in the

69
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: guy from the get some uh yeah, get a little

70
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking too much into it, but that's not a

71
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 1: ring endorsement. Mac's gonna play, but you know he might

72
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: as well, you know, pick Marsh's mind a little bit

73
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: though on you know, defensive schemes and adjustments and things

74
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: like that too. He's fresh from around here. They did

75
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: activate Jimmy Graham from that MR one catch this season. Yeah,

76
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 1: I can't believe they're still paying him. He makes a

77
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: lot of money and is a shell of himself. Has

78
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: never been a blocker, and even recently he kind of

79
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 1: runs like a dad and he's been a game was

80
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: predicated on speed, right right, I mean, but he I

81
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: mean some of these old tight ends fade away slow

82
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 1: and just use their body right and sit down in zones,

83
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: and he was still a red zone weapon. I think

84
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: that Day's shot they play a lot of tight ends.

85
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: As I say that stack packet I do, and all

86
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: that they're tight end usage to me blows me away.

87
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: Like they're using not the Browns level, but a very

88
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: high percentage of twelve and even thirteen personnel. But in

89
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: past plays they don't keep them in the block, you know,

90
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: like right like col Cometz a fine receiver, and we

91
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: know who Jesse James is, but they're not Kellen Winslow

92
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 1: and Auzie Newsom. You know. I'm like, maybe you could

93
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: help the protection a little more with these two or

94
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 1: fifty pound people. Yeah, I don't know that they're doing

95
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: the best job of helping the young man exactly. Goes

96
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: back to that topic. But this is a game that

97
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: I keep looking at it, and you hate to say this,

98
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: but I don't see how the Steelers lose this game,

99
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: especially the Monday night home all eyes on you you know, rested. Yeah,

100
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 1: it sets up really all for them. I mean, they're

101
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 1: they're you know, their defense is not good. That's a

102
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: thing that's the misconception is I think people think oh,

103
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: the Bears will can maybe grind out a twelve ten

104
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: type of win. And we know the Steelers games in

105
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: general are gonna be low scoring and that gives you

106
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: a less room for air. But this defense isn't the

107
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: monsters of the midway Buddy Ryan's forty six. It's not

108
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: even what they were last year average at best, yeah,

109
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: at best. Yeah, And you know the numbers. I mean,

110
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 1: they've given up twenty two touchdowns this year and they've

111
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 1: scored twelve. I don't know. I texted this either other night,

112
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: looking at their stats and like, how is how are they?

113
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: How do they say? How are they? How are they?

114
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: Three and five? They've beaten the Bears or I'm sorry,

115
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: they've beaten the Bengals, the Raiders, they beat the top

116
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: two season. Going into last week, they had beaten the

117
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: two of the top season. So that's where, you know,

118
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: the whole a f C NFC thing doesn't make sense

119
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: to me. You know, I understand that the football's a

120
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: matchup driven games in week the week, but that Bengals

121
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: game was completely flukey. You know, Burrow through three through

122
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: three consecutive interceptions on passes. That just doesn't I forgot

123
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: about that. Wow, it just doesn't happen. I mean, where

124
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: they're at in terms of yards allowed. I know that's

125
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: not the best, right, you know, while you're digging though,

126
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: I mean to defend the Bears a little. Their defense

127
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: when all over that often and takes that many sacks, well,

128
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: you're not put in exactly great situations. No, I understand that.

129
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: But even the eyeball test, they're average. I mean they're

130
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: they're giving up three fifty seven yards per game, twenty

131
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: four point four points per game. Um. That that's almost

132
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: leak average. Period. But if you look at the you know,

133
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: the passing yards to two point seven, okay, rushing one

134
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: thirty one point three. They can't stop the run. They

135
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: don't stop the run very well. I would imagine this

136
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: is a huge nazy game, you know, I mean, really

137
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: get back to that. Probably a heavy dose the first

138
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: down runs. I mean, this isn't the type offense that

139
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: you need to worry about jumping up on your twenty

140
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 1: to nothing. Um. Defensively, they have some guys, especially if

141
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: Mac plays, I mean, Hicks is a really good player,

142
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: and I'm really excited about where ro Quans come their secondaries. Okay,

143
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: we were talking about a little bit off the air before.

144
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: You know, Johnson, the second year corner occasionally will travel.

145
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: Uh he didn't last week against Eebo Samuel. I mean

146
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: he's a hard guy. Should have probably should have. Um

147
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: we talked about this yesterday too. Deebo is a hard

148
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: guy to travel with because they do such a good

149
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: job of, you know, getting him been you know, spots

150
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: to really excel. But it's inconsequential to me. I mean,

151
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: if Johnson travels with Johnson, great. I mean, you know,

152
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: here's the thing that really stands out about them. Now

153
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: we all know the Steeler's offense has not been great.

154
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: They're averaging three D thirty point four yards per game,

155
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 1: nineteen points per game. Steelers are talking average. Yeah yeah, okay.

156
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: The Bears two D sixty four yards per game, fifteen

157
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: point four points per game. The yard is is dead last.

158
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: Their seventeen yards a game behind seventeen behind the Texans.

159
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: We're halfway through the season. The Texans offense like he's junk.

160
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: It's like the lowest d v l A that football

161
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: side has having like five years too. I mean, just however,

162
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: they formulate their to the rankings really bad. I mean,

163
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: if they could count down on the sacks and turnovers, Hugh, Jeff,

164
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 1: you know, if Kansas City could eliminate the turnovers and

165
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: back to being the best, you know in the league.

166
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 1: I mean, that would be a start, at least. I

167
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: still think having Fields run more would be a start,

168
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, at least get your back, you know, approaching

169
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: mediocrity or out of the cellar. I thought Fields played

170
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: his best game, but they don't block for him. Well,

171
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: you know, like he has to be super They still

172
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: only scored twenty two points, like right, right, and that's

173
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: as good as again. San Francisco's defense is not that's okay,

174
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: it's middle of the pay but like both the re

175
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: t havoc on them, do I mean, just like Watt will.

176
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: They're averaging fifteen point four points a game. The Texans

177
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 1: are the only team worse than that. The Jets are

178
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: average sixteen point three. The Lions who come in next

179
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,839
Speaker 1: week or sixteen point eight. Yeah, they're miserable to like

180
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: this is this is a bad offense. Yeah, boors in

181
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 1: the league type Like, they're averaging a hundred and twenty

182
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: seven point four passing yards per game. That's not rushing

183
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 1: passing and you're losing a lot um. You know, we

184
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: know anyone that plays fantasy understands Allen Robinson's numbers are

185
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: really bad. They just went over a thousand passing yards

186
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: for the season in their eighth game last week. Yeah

187
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 1: last week. I didn't realize that, but that adds up.

188
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: I mean, that's how bad it is. They're on pace

189
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 1: to throw for less than yards for the season. And

190
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 1: we can give Nag a hard time, we can. This

191
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: is his this is his thing though. He's an offensive

192
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: guy hired from the Chiefs to go and turn to

193
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 1: risky into your next mahomes and out fields into the

194
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: next mahomes and you'll see how that's going. Fields deserve

195
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: some heat though, too. I mean he has not thrown

196
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: the ball nearly as well as he did Ohio State

197
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: like accuracy was the strength of his He air mettles

198
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: a lot of balls. He plays very frenetically. Again, I

199
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: thought he played his best game his past week, and

200
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: I know you and I were both really high on him.

201
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: So I think he does have a bright future if

202
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: the nest improves. But they're really swimming upstream on offense, Yeah,

203
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 1: I mean there are You're looking at two three four

204
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: or five, six seven teams who have more rushing yards

205
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 1: than they do passing yards this season. That's amazing. In

206
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: today's nfla where everything is predicated, everything is set up

207
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: for you to be able to throw the football. They

208
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: can't do it right now. No, I mean more than

209
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: half their yardage comes on the ground, and they are

210
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 1: an okay running team, but they're not the Ravens or

211
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,839
Speaker 1: so if if you're Keith Butler and Mike Tomlin, you're

212
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: putting together a defensive game plan this week, he just

213
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: played that. He just played the Browns, who are the best,

214
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 1: came into that game as the best running team, and

215
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: you shut that down. One thing that's a little different.

216
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: Contrary to popular belief, the Browns are more power come

217
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: off the ball and the run game than they are

218
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: wide zone things like that. This Herbert's are really good

219
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: outside zone runner and that's kind of their bread and butter.

220
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: So yes, I'm sure gap integrity is didn't stop talking

221
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: about it after the Browns game. All we got that right,

222
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: But it's a little would be a little different. I

223
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,839
Speaker 1: mean it's maintaining it on while moving laterally on the

224
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: run on the move, and we've seen you know, this

225
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: is not unique to the Steelers, but over the last

226
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,719
Speaker 1: year or two, some of these wide zone teams have

227
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,199
Speaker 1: given them problems, which is why everybody runs it, you know. So,

228
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: but that's like they're that's they're the only card they

229
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 1: have in their hand. Is that is that going to

230
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: consistently score points for you? At some point you're gonna

231
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 1: get into a third and seven and have to convert,

232
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: and you gotta block the Steelers front. I mean that

233
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: means a big issue. Um. I still think Robinson is

234
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: a good player, and one of these games he's gonna

235
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: have a hundred yards and you know, Yds the only

236
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: throw seven a game, seven going everybody else. The Mooney's

237
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: their favorite target, fields his favorite target. I'm sure if

238
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: I'm them, I'm taking some shots with him and you

239
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: can't allow. It's not to the metcalf Locket level, of course,

240
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 1: but I think there will be a little bit of

241
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: that of don't let Mooney get behind you, especially on

242
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,719
Speaker 1: third downs. Be very conscientious of that. So if he

243
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: catches six for sixty five, fine, you know, just don't

244
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 1: allow the big play um fields. As a runner is

245
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: the thing you've got to worry about most of my

246
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: opinion slash playmaker me because most days runs. Last week

247
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: we're on passage. Yeah. Yeah. If you look at their

248
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: d v o A, there twenty six in the league overall. Again,

249
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 1: I don't know how they get three. It's amazing. There

250
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: thirtieth in offensive d v o A minus twenty six

251
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 1: really bad. The only team is worst Detroit and Houston.

252
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: And that's that's a company they keep. They're eighteen in

253
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: defense of d b o A. I think that's probably fair.

254
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: In thirteen in terms of special special teams, yeah, there's

255
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: but the returners have been good. Yeah, but thirteenth is

256
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: still again middle of the pack. Yeah, that's the best thing. Yeah,

257
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: that's their best that's their best thing. Well that's on

258
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: the field for six snaps a game. Yeah, I mean,

259
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: especially when you know you turn the ball over like

260
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: they do, you're you're not punting, that's right. I don't

261
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: like how the team was built. I mean, you can

262
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: give the coaching staff a hard time, but their front

263
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: office consistently trades up in the draft for fields. Fine,

264
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: that's what I'm talking about. I'm talking about trading up

265
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: for Cole Commet and you know, like year after year

266
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: and then when you trade up for fields, you immediately

267
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: trade up for Tevin Jenkins. Again, not their fault that

268
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: he got hurt, but doing it twice in a row

269
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: early in draft, Like you wonder why you don't have

270
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: third and fourth round body of your roster, cheap labor

271
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: that are really playing well because they don't make many

272
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 1: draft picks. They mortgage the future. And again for a quarterback.

273
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: That's fine, but why don't you have much of an

274
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: offensive line? Well, where's the homegrown talent? You know, where's

275
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: the next comers? You know, it's it's a little mind boggling.

276
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: They deserve to be their seat, deserves to be hot. Yeah,

277
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: it really is. I did want to also look at

278
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: their offensive line d v o A here, Um, I

279
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: know people are hate the Steelers office. The Steeler's offensive

280
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: line I think at this point is getting a bad

281
00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: around the league because I think people look at the

282
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: overall we're gonna talk about a Bill Barnwell article in

283
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: the next thing. Uh, you know, they look at the

284
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: Steelers offensive line d v o A right now say well,

285
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: they're not playing well. The times change. They didn't play

286
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: well the first three weeks of the Sea even four

287
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: weeks of the season. Now they're playing maybe a Monday

288
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: night spotlight game is enough for the general public be like,

289
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: oh wow, these guys are moving bodies off the off

290
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: the line in sacrammage, just lines getting better. If Mac plays,

291
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: I don't think they get much pressure on bed either. Yeah.

292
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean Floyd and Hicks is a really

293
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: good player, but he's a certain type of player. He'd

294
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: be a great stealer and you know all that. But overall,

295
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: I mean, who's who really scares you? They don't blitz

296
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: a ton a little and there's usually ro Quan The

297
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: safeties are fine, you know, but I mean every NFL

298
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 1: team has something, and they don't have a lot their

299
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 1: their twenty three and overall offensive line play. Uh, if

300
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: you look at it, their past protection has to be

301
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: last dead, last dead last thirty sacks. They're they're adjusted

302
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: sacaratest twelve point two percent. Um, it's just not good.

303
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,800
Speaker 1: The next closest team to that is Seattle at ten

304
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: point four percent. Well, you saw what the Steelers did

305
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: the Seattle's offensive line when they needed to do it.

306
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: I mean it wasn't pretty. Um, you know that Cleveland

307
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: offensive line is at eight point nine percent, and the

308
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 1: Steelers got the Baker Mayfield pretty consistently. Yeah. Uh, every

309
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: time Fields drops back to pass is gonna be And

310
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: I would hope crowd noise factors in and all that

311
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 1: stuff too to your advantage. You know, Um, I like Fields.

312
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 1: He's not played well by starting NFL standards. They don't

313
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: help him, help him at all. But his style doesn't

314
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 1: help either. For sacks, just in terms of what it's

315
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: it's almost like the Lamar Jackson thing. Lamar will run

316
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: himself into some sacks because he keeps the play alive,

317
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,680
Speaker 1: thinking he can escape somewhere. There's gonna be some of that.

318
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: Here's the thing with Fields. He's made six starts this year.

319
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: He's lost. He's fumbled eight times. Five of them have

320
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: been in the last two games. As great as he

321
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: was last week against against the forty nine, is he

322
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 1: fumbled three times in that game, right, Because the more

323
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: he carries the football, the more he's going to get

324
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,199
Speaker 1: hited out there. And sometimes you'll hold You'll see him

325
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: holding it with one hand too and away from his body,

326
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,239
Speaker 1: and you know, yeah, and the Steelers will hit him

327
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: when he's running with the ball. That's that's the way

328
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 1: they play those running quarters. With that question, he has

329
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 1: loads of talent, but some of those guys that are

330
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: way more talented than everybody else can get away with

331
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: some not so great habits, you know, I mean, holding

332
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: the ball that tick longer until guys come open, maybe

333
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: not protecting the football as well as they should. Things

334
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 1: like that are areas he needs to get better. You

335
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about that. And he's playing perdue

336
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 1: no right right right, you know. And if I'MBO, you'll

337
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:32,120
Speaker 1: probably get them all right back and score the next time. Yeah,

338
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 1: So I I just I don't know. I mean, I

339
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: know the Steelers don't have a great history against the Bears. Um, yeah,

340
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: I don't. That doesn't factor into this game at all. No,

341
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: that's not like it's a division game or boy, they

342
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 1: don't have a great history play on the Raiders every

343
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 1: four years, right right right. It's not a common opponent

344
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: at all. And they've been playing since nineteen thirties something,

345
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: you know, And the only that many games against they're

346
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: games period. It's not like it's a you know, lengthy

347
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: you know, I do my my look back every week

348
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: historical game, and you know, I I didn't want to

349
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: take the low hanging fruit and take the two thousand

350
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,479
Speaker 1: five game Lauer game. Yeah, oh I did that. When

351
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,640
Speaker 1: I could come up with I went back to five

352
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: when the Steelers snapped just kind of snapped along losing

353
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: streak against the I think they were like at that point,

354
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, like two eleven and one against the Bears.

355
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,479
Speaker 1: The Bears are dominated the ear Yeah right, which makes sense, right,

356
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: I mean that was kind of like the seventy five

357
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: coming out, like you smacked the Bears around, like Okay,

358
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: at that point, they were a legendary franchise and they

359
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: were what the Steelers were, one of the beat yeah,

360
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: and soon became yeah, yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, And

361
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: they're an odd organization in general to really are. They're

362
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: not a quarterback ever, you know what I mean. And Reggie,

363
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: I looked at this game and thought before really digging

364
00:19:58,520 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: into it, and so a lot of the numbers you

365
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: brought up and stuff like that, like this is probably

366
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: a Bears type of game under yeah weather maybe you know,

367
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 1: like late in the seasoned nice close, but yeah, I

368
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 1: mean like, but when you start looking at it, like

369
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: what matchups cho the Chicago really have going for them

370
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: struggling to find them. They are. You know, there's some

371
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: franchises that you look at and you say, it's just

372
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: kind of blah. To me, it's it's the Bears. It's Washington,

373
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: like they're just ordinary. Like, yeah, they're sometimes okay, but

374
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: they're never Washington has at least been great. The Bears

375
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 1: had that stretch in the mid eighty it was actually

376
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: one year. That's what it is. Like. I'm not ripping

377
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: on the Bears. I get that they're a great fan base,

378
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 1: big city, one of the Hallison. I mean, I understand

379
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: their importance years ago. But I'm forty nine. I've been

380
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: paying attention to the NFL since I was like five,

381
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,199
Speaker 1: and they were good once. I mean, they're never awful.

382
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: They're not the Lions, but they're because they play in

383
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,719
Speaker 1: the same division as Alliance, right, they can always say, well,

384
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: we're better than Alliance. You know, just it's just kind

385
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: of a you know, quarterback is part of the thing.

386
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: I'm they even looking for a quarterback from Jay Cutler,

387
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 1: the best quarterback in history there. I mean, man wasn't

388
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: even that great or hopefully it's fields. People are hoping

389
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: it was tribhisky A couple of years ago. You know,

390
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,360
Speaker 1: it's not a good line of failure at that very

391
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,360
Speaker 1: important position, without questions, without question. I mean, that's why

392
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: they were so fired up in the fan base was

393
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 1: so fired up to get Fields. They were also fired

394
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: up to get Trabisky. You know, it's just it's a

395
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: I mean, the difference was you were picking in the

396
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: top five. You know, you already get somebody who's your favorite.

397
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 1: They were one of the only ones that thought Robisky

398
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: was that good. But fine, whatever, they made the wrong

399
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: choice or developed them poorly this one, they at least

400
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: were regressive and at the fan base went crazy. Didn't

401
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: see that coming, and boom, we were the team that

402
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: got Fields. Plus he's a big ten guys, but then

403
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: you throw him in this situation and expect him to

404
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 1: do well, you know, like I don't know. I mean,

405
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson comes to mind too, like did you expect

406
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 1: him to be much better than this? You know? And

407
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: some of that's on those guys, really, because I don't

408
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 1: want to talk at the both sides of our mouth,

409
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 1: because we were saying he should be playing from the beginning.

410
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 1: But you gotta help him, you gotta help him a

411
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: little more. You can't just go go out there and

412
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 1: run the same offense you're running with Andy Dalton. The

413
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 1: lack of design quarterback runs and even quarterback movement, I

414
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 1: mean just rollouts and boots and things like that play

415
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: those strengths. That doesn't make They did do that a

416
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: little bit more last week. They did. They did roll

417
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: them out a little bit more. And those are I

418
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 1: guess Laser took over play calling like two or three

419
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 1: weeks ago too, So those design rollouts are something that

420
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: the Steelers are going to have to be cognizant of.

421
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: But they're gonna they're gonna put stress on your guys

422
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: on the edge because roll him out and if you

423
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 1: cover it, then he's gonna run. If you come up,

424
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: then he's gonna throw. Yeah, they should do a lot

425
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't be surprised to

426
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 1: see Mica Fitzpatrick bade him into a throw in that situation.

427
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 1: He seems about due for one too, and this is

428
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 1: a good opportunity for that and take of the house.

429
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: I will say that if people haven't watched Fields, or

430
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: if you didn't watch him in the Ohio state, you

431
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,719
Speaker 1: might be blown away by his athleticism. Yeah, I mean

432
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: I'm a big I sight grade Coast sell a lot.

433
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: And I was listening to a podcast to him this

434
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: morning and he said, Fields to me is really a

435
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,159
Speaker 1: combination of Newton and Vic It's like wow, I mean,

436
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: he said, that's extreme. That sounds crazy, you know, not

437
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: putting words in Greg's mouth, but that's what kind of

438
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: what he is. I mean, he's not just a speed guy.

439
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 1: He's very physical. He's got a lot going for him.

440
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 1: He's thicker, yeah, and he's a four four oh yeah, yeah.

441
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 1: I mean he'll stop and start and run you over.

442
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: And I like his makeup. But boy, he's in a

443
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: tough situation. He he really is. I mean, they just

444
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: don't have a lot around him. So and that's that's

445
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:04,760
Speaker 1: an talking about them. It's just again I'm not super exciting.

446
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: But we will take a break and when we come back,

447
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: we'll talk about well, the Steelers in the a f

448
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: C North. Bill Barmore wrote an article about that on

449
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: ESPN dot com. I thought we'd dig into that a

450
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: little bit and talk about who is the favorite to

451
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 1: win the a f C North. We'll talk about that

452
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: when we come back. He is Matt Williams and I'm

453
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: Dale Lally. You're listening to the Drive here on Steelers

454
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: Nation Radio.
