Speaker 1 (00:00):
Is wde Pittsburgh gets a snap, We'll give and Jacobs
tried to bounce it outside and Jacobs is.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Going to get to the edge and Jacobs on the
first player of the fourth quorders run in for a
Green Bay Packers touchdown.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Yeah, Steelers weren't very good last night and the Packers
took advantage of that in the second half. I mean
they were down going into the fourth quarter and then
piled on for long. Steelers lose thirty five to twenty five,
and it was not that close. I'm not exactly sure
(00:42):
how this gets better anytime soon, but I will say
that when you looked at those ticket prices on Friday,
you just knew there was gonna be a lot of
Packers fans coming in. I think the Steeler fans gave
up on this team before the game.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
Yeah, my parents were there last night and my mom
was sending me video ahead of it to it a.
Speaker 5 (01:05):
Lot a green, And there was a lot of green
at Stay je for the tailgate, And I just chalk
that up to well, this is the only place really
for them to come, you know, this is the main
meeting place like Sta jem.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
Yeah, so you thought they were concentrating.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
There's going to be the most concentrated amount of a
Green Bay Packers fans because you're not going to see
them taking over a tailgate in the parking lot. But that,
I mean, you knew they were coming in for this game.
I mean, this game is history one way or the other.
I mean, it's the first time Aaron has played Green Bay.
(01:42):
If he beats them, he's now beat all thirty two
teams in the NFL.
Speaker 7 (01:46):
A lot at stake for this, for both of these teams.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
But the idea, you know, we keep saying like, oh,
if they just finished drives instead of relying on Boss.
Those aren't drives. They're like two first days. And then
they kick a sixty yard field goal.
Speaker 7 (02:02):
Yeah yeah, they just kept riding.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Deep into territory.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Nope, Arthur just missplay calling in the second half I
thought was brutal coming out of the locker room. They
had a chance right there to really make a statement
and put them behind the sticks. The secondary was laughably
bad tackling, and some key injuries last night that are
going to make things really tricky going forward, notably say
(02:27):
Malu and Deshaun Elliott.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
That looked like the end of his season last night.
That looked really bad.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
Yeah, I mean he was screaming in pain.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Usually that doesn't mean he'll be back on Sunday unless
you play for the Ravens, and then they'll just they'll
just pretend that you're okay.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
No, Bill and I watched the Deshaun Elliott thing like
seven times in the.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Break Yeah, the Tucker Craft, Yeah, yeah, it looks best
so awkward.
Speaker 7 (02:53):
He lands right on his knee with his whole body weight.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
The thing that pisses me off most about that play,
well the injury probably he was what pisses me off
most about it. But all right, fine, he pushes off
de Sewn Elliot puts his hands up in the airs.
I have to say, like, oh, I didn't interfere with him,
which I mean interfere with him if you're you know.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Please please interfere with hi.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Yeah, I get you got the penalty, Yes, you got
pushed off.
Speaker 6 (03:16):
They should have called that.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
They didn't, and I can see them not calling that
quite frankly. I mean there, that's kind of battling for
the ball there. Yeah, weird, kooky kind of play. But
right after that, Thornhill has an opportunity to tackle him
before midfield. Hey tries to tackle him high midfield and
(03:39):
Tucker does not go down until the twenty six yard line.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
Oh yeah, you got.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
I mean the pad level on that attempted tackle was abysmal.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
They're tackling all night was abysmal.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Oh yeah, Slay And I'm not exactly sure what what
you do here. Mike Tomlin is in a lot of
trouble and he's to have a really brutal week, as
you said, Bill, ten days from getting their ass kicked
in Cincinnati to come back to face the Packers in primetime.
And that's the effort that they gave. They rolled over
(04:13):
in the second half. They gave up. They quit on
Mike Tomlin. And we've seen this too many times. Remember
last year when the defense quit down the stretch? Yep,
the playoff game against Baltimore. Oh godhow doesn't it kind
of seem like even their star players don't believe in
the schematics. Coach was asked about that after the game,
(04:33):
less than he said, certainly, you got to start with
the schematics as being an issue.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Well, this has been one of my this has been
one of my main arguments with Mike over the last
couple of seasons. Is that he starts every season fresh
and I keep saying the meter is running.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
You're changing the players and it looks the same. Yeah,
this is not a.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Brand new season, a clean slate that we're assessing them
as if we haven't seen this exact same thing down
the stretch last year and into the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Matt Canada was fired the week of November twentieth. Right
after that, Browns came in twenty twenty three.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
If they live Duke.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Marriott the third beat us Remember that quarterback? Yeah, nobody
had ever heard of and is not in the league.
Speaker 6 (05:16):
Possibly uh Dorian Thompson Robinson Town Center.
Speaker 7 (05:20):
Yep.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
If the Steelers have similar defensive efforts in the next
two weeks and they don't fire Tell Austin out of
at least just optics, then there's a big problem. I know,
it's not really his defense. He keeps insisting he's the
one calling it and the schematics are the issue. Well,
(05:42):
you got to point the finger at somebody, and the
coaches have to take the brunt of this one player evaluation.
Can't do anything about that now, But they basically have
been given a pile of garbage on the show chopped
and said, you know, make beef struggle off.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
It's like there's no beef.
Speaker 7 (06:02):
There's no strogan off. Well not with the way they're playing.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Yeah, the secondary looked like they were strogging off all night.
I don't know what any of that means other than
I'm very disappointed.
Speaker 8 (06:15):
And yet you do it makes perfect say it makes
perfect sense.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
The two passes that will haunt them are that one
to Craft and who cut the second one.
Speaker 9 (06:30):
The Watson that over Thornhill on Eccles just a jump
ball that he throws up there. Thornhill completely misjudges it.
Speaker 5 (06:42):
Although you know, I mean it's it's hard for me,
just as a lover of ball not to just appreciate
what Jordan Love did last night, because that dude was cooking.
He had twenty completions in a row at one point. Yeah,
he went.
Speaker 7 (06:53):
Off and that throw.
Speaker 5 (06:56):
I've seen Ben make that throw where it looks like
an interception, it looks like it should work, and our
guy comes down with it. Well, that's what happens when
you have a franchise guy and he's out there. I mean,
he had ten, ten different targets last night. Everybody got
some love.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Even the play that Deshaun Elliott got hurt like Queen
had him, like Queen had Love, Like.
Speaker 7 (07:16):
Oh yeah, that should have been hit him as he
threw it.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Yeah, he was an inch away from batting that ball down.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
But that's like when we talk about what we like
about Aaron Rodgers' mobility, that's definitely something Jordan Love has
learned from him. But it works for the Packers because
there's receivers.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Yeah yeah, and you know, DK didn't make a catch
when he needed to last night.
Speaker 6 (07:37):
There were a couple of drops.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
I thought you're gonna see a much different looking Steelers offense.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
In the first half.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
I thought that they were getting that running game going,
and I thought they were gonna come out in the
second half and keep doing that control the time of
possession like they did in the first half. That was
working for them, and then the defense just got gassed.
I mean they got gassed and you could see them
breaking down.
Speaker 6 (08:00):
He's after series and by the fourth quarter it was
just just they had nothing left over. They had no fight.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
And when Cam Hayward, team captain Cam Hayward says after
the game, we don't have a lot of fight in us.
There's some big problems in now locker room?
Speaker 5 (08:18):
How how after ten days off at home in prime time?
Speaker 3 (08:23):
One guy twet me, He's like, I have the biggest
problem with Cam Hayward because he asked for more money
and we gave it to him and he's not doing anything.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
And I was like, we want to be fair. We
didn't really give it to him.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Yeah, incentivized him to do his job.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
You just got a pretended like we gave it to him.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
Yeah, but we gave a lot of people a lot
of money, and it's it doesn't look like it should
look for the highest paid defense in the league.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Steelers lose thirty five to twenty five last night. Jerry
Doulachell join us later Rob King with a sour hour
Steeler talk, trying to make sense and looking ahead at
this week. It doesn't get any easier for them as
the red hot Indianapolis Colts come to town.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
Best best team in the league right now, they've you know,
they've got the best record. They look incredible, They're beaten
teams by multiple touchdowns.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
Will Indie fans make the trek.
Speaker 7 (09:08):
Probably?
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Will MacAfee show up wearing half Colts House Steelers jersey?
Speaker 7 (09:14):
Oh that's a good question.
Speaker 6 (09:17):
I saw those.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
I saw Aaron Rodgers halfs yesterday. Yeah, I saw two
of them.
Speaker 7 (09:21):
Really.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Yeah, that's surprising, Damashek told us that, you know, he
was so hated and said so many nasty things about
Green Bay, which I was trying to look up. Not
that I was like trying to call him out or
anything like that, but I was trying to look up
exact quotes of what he was playing. Claims he said
some pretty I know, and so I was trying to
find some receipts.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Did you no, Okay, well maybe we'll have to bring
that up.
Speaker 7 (09:46):
But oh no, they love him.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
I mean last night you heard the ovation when he
ran out of the tunnel and there was a ton
of Packers fans they all cheered. I mean there was
there was so many Rogers jerseys, Green Bay Rogers jerseys
at the tailgate, and.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Just how could they not be fans. I get that
it ended bad, but a lot of relationships to.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
Yeah, it's him and Farv and Star is there, you know,
the holy trinity for the Packers fans.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
I think that the relationship between the Pittsburgh Steelers and
Mike Tomlin is headed down that path, right now coach
is gonna have a brutal week, and I think he
knows it, and I'm not sure if anybody is going
to be happy and Steeler Nation until that guy is gone,
and I don't know that he could turn it around
(10:37):
and makes you can salid out of what's happening.
Speaker 7 (10:41):
Although we've seen them here before, or we all count
them out and we all say like, well, they're cooked,
they're not possibly going to throw together any kind of
semblance of a good team, and then they rip off
a couple wins they shouldn't and they're still somewhat in
the mix.
Speaker 5 (10:57):
And then you're like, oh, maybe, and then they could
beat bad again. You're like, no, I'm done this time
for real.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
If they lost to the Packers played well, if it
was like that Packers Steelers game from what was a
two thousand and nine where it was like back and
full shootout, Yeah yeah, and you just got bested, it
would feel a lot different. This team is an absolute
mess right now in all three phases. Everybody taking bad penalties.
(11:24):
Nick herbig bad penalty, TJ bad penalty, dkad penalty. Okay,
what are you doing?
Speaker 6 (11:31):
Cam? False start?
Speaker 4 (11:33):
Whenever they were in uh FR goal formation made it
a little easier for him.
Speaker 7 (11:38):
Yep.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
And then you know, the Packers got away with a
lot last night that that wasn't called on Deshaun Elliott,
the neutral zone infraction that wasn't called I throw a
DK that was I mean, the defender made a great
play at the right time, but that balanced out should
have been a penalty that balanced out.
Speaker 6 (11:56):
The fall start by Broderick Jones.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
I thought, so I was okay with it because I
mean we ended up scoring a touchdown on that drive.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
But yeah, you know, you bitch about the calls, then
you you sound like a loser, which we are.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
You very rarely win, and bitch about the referees. That
being said, it's gonna be fun to talk to Jean's
territory tomorrow here on the program. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (12:18):
Some weird calls, some weird calls and and I I
mean I was watching that Rum and Wilson catch, thinking
in the NFL that I grew up watching, that's not
a catch.
Speaker 7 (12:29):
You know, three steps you don't hold onto the ball.
Speaker 6 (12:32):
To ground or whatever.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
Yeah, I mean he didn't go to the ground, but
still like that didn't look like the cat. I mean, hey,
I'm not going to take a touchdown off.
Speaker 7 (12:40):
The board for us.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
But right the other one that we benefited from that
This gets called all the time in the NFL, But
pass interference on an underthrown ball, I kind of feel
like the blinding with the receiver and the you know,
if the ball is underthrown, he has to You can't
stop on a dime if you're the defender there, if
(13:04):
it's underthrown. I'm not sure why that's pass interference, but
it has been for a while.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
Is the letter of the law there that you just
can't peed the receiver's.
Speaker 7 (13:14):
Path to the ball.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Yes, but if you're running with them and the ball
is underthrown, I don't know. You know, good quarterbacks can
make that play all the time, and that was a
big pi for the Steelers there, and they deerately needed
that on third dom, We'll try to make heads.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
Wait, was that the only third down they converted? Because
if that was on third down, they were only one
for ten.
Speaker 6 (13:38):
Yeah. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
Does it count as a conversion when it's a penalty,
that's a good question. I don't think it does. I
think it's like getting walked.
Speaker 7 (13:45):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
Anyways, all right, we've.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Got more to deal with here, but the dissolution of
our superstars and the once vaunted Pittsburgh Steeler defense right now,
it's just a little much to deal with at seven
seventeen in the morning, seven eighteen just turned seven eighteen.
Good lord, Yeah, it'll be fine, Abby, get any to
(14:09):
talk about it, will look? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Sure? Is this hower brought to you by Keystone Basement Systems.
What basement Keystone Basement Systems dot com. Cold start today,
temperatures in the mid thirties. It's sunny today with high
of sixty.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
We'll jump ahead to a bit of a surprise at
the box office. There is a big screen adaptation of
a popular anime movie called Chainsaw Man, and it was
the number one movie at the box office.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
Comes out of Nowhere, which is wild Here exactly.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
And then you had Black Phone two at number two,
which means.
Speaker 7 (14:47):
That there was a black Phone one.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Well, good point, But I was going to say the
Springsteen movie Yeah, ended up being number three, I believe so.
I think a lot of folks thought that Delivered Me
from Nowhere was going to do pretty well, but that
ended up earning about twelve million dollars. Coming in again
at number three, Regretting You was the rom com that
(15:13):
Sean also reviewed for US.
Speaker 6 (15:16):
Oh you know what, I take that back. That got
number three.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Springsteen came in at number or at nine million, So
that came in at number four. Oh wow, so that
didn't I don't get a lot of love this weekend.
And as much as we are still probably on the
fence because we haven't had an opportunity to see the
movie yet, it sounds like director Scott Cooper suggests that
Bruce Springsteen's Life has enough material for a sequel or
(15:39):
even a trilogy to the film. So your idea, Randy,
that the multiverse. Yeah, this is a multiverse of Springsteen.
It's got legs.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
So like Batman versus Superman, we can have Dylan versus Springsteen.
Speaker 6 (15:54):
Challa May and Jeremy Ellen White as you've never seen
them before.
Speaker 7 (15:58):
Who can get sadder?
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Everybody I talked to, Uh, actually, well, I did a
show with Joe Grisheki on Saturday and we were talking
about the movie and he told me he was like
I was in that room with him and I heard
those songs. He played Nebraska for me and we're just
like really, He's like, yeah, not the whole record, but
(16:22):
he's like, hey, I wrote some songs. He's like, I
was in that house. I was hanging with him. He's like,
that's when we were hanging a lot back and then
and he said that like Bruce played, he goes and
he thought they were demos. And that's, of course, the
famous story about it is that the record company's like, Okay,
those are demos and you're going to redo them, right,
And then he's like, no, I think we're good. But
he said that basically, Bruce told him on Friday that
(16:49):
this is the movie he wanted to make. Like this Friday, Yeah,
this past Friday, he was hemmit.
Speaker 7 (16:56):
Springsy talking all the time, like one Friday.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
No Friday. Like He's like, I was talking to him yesterday.
He told us this on Saturday. He's like, I was
talking to him yesterday and he told me this is
the movie I wanted to make.
Speaker 7 (17:09):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
And it's a movie about the most depressing part of
his life, the most depressed era of his life. And
I I'm not sure that outside of diehard Springsteen fans
of people want to rush to go see that.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Well, no, it sounds like they want to see Black
Phone two A little bit little bit more.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Yeah, it's just not an era that people feel comfortable
celebrating because maybe people are also depressed themselves right now.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
It's like, I don't want to get that sat I'm
going to see chainsaw Man instead.
Speaker 6 (17:38):
I'm gonna go to the Steelers game.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Oh damn, I do you see it? Just did the
Wisconsin album last night. I don't know if Mike went
and saw that or not. I have to ask him.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
He was, yeah, I'll have to ask him. I'm going
to see it. There was.
Speaker 4 (17:56):
At the afi Fest premiere of the movie, like Mark
Maron said that Jeremy Allen White's singing performance was so
good that you know, it even fooled Bruce Springsteen.
Speaker 6 (18:07):
And I saw a.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Little lot of is that me?
Speaker 7 (18:12):
Well, yeah, from me? Then who's you? Wait?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
But I saw a lot of tiktoks this weekend where
they had all of these like Lucy Dakas was in it,
the guy I don't know that everybody's name in the National,
but whoever the lead singer of the National is Matt Berenger, maybe,
I think, But they were all listening in studio and
I couldn't tell who it was because they were reacting
(18:37):
to it being Jeremy Allen White.
Speaker 6 (18:39):
Oh wow, well I know that the band that he
played with.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
That at the Stone Pony scene is Credavan Fleet.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Oh no kidding?
Speaker 7 (18:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (18:49):
Really yeah? Interesting?
Speaker 5 (18:51):
I you know, I'm sure that they put so much
thought into this, but why not release it over Thanksgiving?
Because isn't that the big movie weekend the year?
Speaker 7 (19:00):
Like?
Speaker 6 (19:01):
Because it's close? Yeah, they don't trust it to open.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Pig Yeah, somebody must be afraid that it's not as
good and again it was.
Speaker 7 (19:09):
A chainsaw man? Is it going to take us down?
Speaker 3 (19:12):
I'll tell you what I want to say. I want
to see the Terry Bradshaw movie. I mean, I want
him to get the full biopic treatment.
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Did you guys you know he has a one man show,
or at least he did he did?
Speaker 6 (19:23):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Did you hear Terry on the Pig Show yesterday talking
about trying to call Andy Reid? And the thing that
I would worry about more so in Washington is the
other day I text Andy Reid and.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
I got a text back and I thought it was
Sandy Reid, but.
Speaker 7 (19:39):
It's some guys selling pigs.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
But I sounded good. I shouldn't have told you all
that so y'all would.
Speaker 7 (19:43):
Have thought I actually called Andy Reid, but I didn't
really want a breakdown.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
I wouldn't be so sure that that wasn't Andy Reid,
because I feel like Andy Reid might try to sell
you some pigs.
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Yeah, sure he's got He's got a couple.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
On Strahan's face when the camera pans over him, like, Terry,
what are you talking about.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
We have to take his keys, guys, we have to
take his car keys.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
You can't let him driving home from today. Steelers lose
last night to the Packers Sunday Night football.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
That's two losses in a row. And they up and
quit on coach Tomlin.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
They absolutely gave up in that fourth quarter in the
second half, really a couple of injuries and then they
just you could see it. They just deflated at home
in front of a crowd that was way too green

think there were a whole bunch of cheese sets chit
and go pack go. No, No, I mean were there
highways at.
Speaker 7 (22:54):
Heads at that point?
Speaker 12 (22:55):
Yeah, it's bad sports. That starre brought to by Bridgal
Plants a couple of things before I got to uh
my stuff this hour. Roman Wilson was a touchdown because
he's in the end zone and they threw them the
ball and he caught it and his feet are on
the ground and he's holding it up. It's the same
as the guy running over the goal and you can't
chase some eight yards into the end zone. And swap
the ball out of his hand. Yeah, plays steps. He
(23:17):
didn't have to go to the ground. Because he didn't
go to the ground, they had a two point conversion.
That was no good for the exact same because he
didn't catch the ball. He had two feet down but
it didn't.
Speaker 7 (23:29):
But the possession was he was bobbling it. Yeah, he's doing.
Speaker 12 (23:32):
Possession was not established. I get the rule and not
made by the way. Yeah, right, exactly, that's what he's
here for. Jon and Smith catch the ball. Yeah, give us,
give us a chance for a cover the guy tackle
the guy, catch the ball. We get too deep in
the schematics here. I know they're going to because they
got to look under every stone and all that. But
(23:53):
you know they're not. They are playing poorly. They were
playing bad football. Their better players are being outplayed by
the other teams better players.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
I think this needs the old Looney Tunes TNT.
Speaker 6 (24:08):
Because I just don't see this getting better.
Speaker 12 (24:10):
On a brighter note, if you want to go see
the Bruce Spinstein movie at his most depressing time of
his life, now, it's probably a good time. I haven't
seen it yet, but he's on the cover of time
again and there's a phenomenal artical Time Magazine explains, Yeah.
Speaker 6 (24:28):
I get it.
Speaker 12 (24:29):
It's one of the best works on Springsteen I've ever read.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Who wrote it, I don't know. Yeah, nobody reads Bylins.
One might be AI, he's my point. I No, it's
definitely not Ai.
Speaker 12 (24:40):
It's brilliant writing and perspective and context.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
It's really good. I'll get to the movie eventually.
Speaker 7 (24:49):
No, I know.
Speaker 6 (24:49):
Look, it was a big weekend.
Speaker 12 (24:51):
Maybe after the Colts put up five hundred and thirty yards.
Speaker 7 (24:54):
Oh Man, sports is are.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Brought to you by Bridgeville Plans.
Speaker 12 (24:57):
The Steels were actually writing I had halftime last night,
but things started to get away from them early in
the third quarter and they never did have a way
to get him back on track.
Speaker 7 (25:09):
Well, it felt good at sixteen seven.
Speaker 10 (25:10):
You know, we had a nice drive there in the
first half, and then you know, just didn't decide the game.
But the one play where I don't know if it
seemed like the guy was off sides on third and
eight and he didn't come up with the catch, they
didn't make a penalty call, and then we punt it
and they hit a kind of wild played eighty five
(25:33):
to kind of get back in the game.
Speaker 7 (25:34):
That was like a big momentum turn in the game.
Speaker 12 (25:38):
Yeah, it was not just because it flipped the field.
We're talking about the Jordan Love desperation. He even hope
to the tight end craft fifty nine yards and they're
on the way to getting the touchdown and getting back
in the game. But the Steelers lost to Sean Elliott
on that play. And I don't this is going to
(25:59):
sound like I'm trying to make an excuse for them,
and I'm not, because they were awful, But the Elliott injury,
given the status to who he is and the importance
that he brings to the defense, and just the whole
horrific nature of it, everybody taking a knee and standing around.
I was watching the Eagles Giants earlier yesterday because I
didn't wait all day for Sunday night. I actually watched football,
(26:22):
and then I watched more football.
Speaker 6 (26:23):
But that's just me.
Speaker 7 (26:25):
Uh.
Speaker 12 (26:25):
Tom Brady was doing the game and the Giants lost
Camp scatter Bow. Yeah, and it was a horrific leg injury.
Carted off just they wouldn't even show the replay. It
was so bad. And Tom Brady was talking about how
people never understand the impact that has.
Speaker 6 (26:39):
On people emotionally when when you lose that guy in
horrific fashion.
Speaker 5 (26:44):
So, I mean it had a huge impact on his quarterback,
his bro friend. I mean he was almost crying as
they head budded before he got carted off.
Speaker 6 (26:52):
Did you see that, Yes, but.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
It's like, I'm sorry, you heard your leg.
Speaker 7 (27:00):
Here's a concussion.
Speaker 6 (27:01):
Yeah, yeah, let's penance it out.
Speaker 12 (27:04):
The non penalty Rogers reference was third and eight from
the Steelers twenty nine, and he said, we didn't catch it.
I didn't get a great look at the end of
that play, Roman Wilson, and there was a pass defense.
I don't know if he could have caught it, didn't
catch it, should have caught it, had a chance to.
Speaker 6 (27:21):
Catch, but play wasn't made.
Speaker 12 (27:23):
But watching it, it's all Rogers taking a shot because
it's a free play.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
I thought that was the DK. No, it was to
Roman Wilson. It was to Roman Wilson. And he looked
like he put a half effort into that one.
Speaker 12 (27:35):
So rather than having third and eight become third and three,
he punt the ball back and then the the you know,
the desperation he flips the field and then they score
and then the Steelers end up driving again, installing themselves
out settle for a field goal. Packers get their next
flip field flipping play to Christian Watson, and yeah, hey,
(28:00):
that was a great bootleg and athletic throw and.
Speaker 6 (28:05):
A leap and catch.
Speaker 12 (28:06):
There is no way the ball can be in the
air that long down the middle of the field and
have a guy go up and get it, like you
don't have a defender.
Speaker 6 (28:12):
It just can't have that. And you know that's not schematics.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
By the way, I think it was Nixon on Wilson
on that third down that they thought was a free play.
He came over and just kind of knocked the ball
down what you're allowed to do. And Eckles didn't even
make a play from behind on that one.
Speaker 12 (28:31):
Well, yeah, after if you're in the general vicinity, that's
what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Yeah, Like it's one thing to watch Thornhill completely misjudge it. Yeah,
and he's backpedalingo like he's falling in a tub. And
I mean Eckles come up over the top of them there,
do something like, don't worry about the penalty.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
The guy's gonna catch it there, make a play, do
some try.
Speaker 5 (28:56):
I thought that the Minka Fitzpatrick trade was a good trade.
I think that they should have made that move, and
I also think they miss him. In the middle of
the field has just been wide open, tons of splash.
Speaker 7 (29:07):
You never saw make a give up a play like that.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (29:09):
Yeah, And a really curious thing to me is you've
got Chuck Clark and Thornhill basically alternating at free safety.
Clark on rundowns and Thornhill on passing downs. And Clark's
the guy they added in training camp. I don't know
(29:29):
how they got there. They were real excited about that
secondary when camp opened, and not so much right now.
Offense couldn't do anything to stem that avalanche of Packer
momentum either, at least not until it was way too
little and way too late.
Speaker 10 (29:48):
Yeah, we had too many penalties, too many native yards plays,
and then you know, we just I wasn't accurate enough
on third down and we weren't to create enough space.
But we look at the film and you know better,
and we got a good team coming in next week.
Speaker 7 (30:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
Aaron Rodgers I thought played well a couple more plays
that they make for him, and maybe it's a different story,
but they didn't and it.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
Was not abby. Will have your news at the top
of the hour.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Sounds like there were arrests in the Louver heist. But
also we're gonna talk about uh Steve Martin rocking out
with Aerosmith and young Blood.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Jerry Doulag, Rob King still to come, top plays of
the game when we come back.
Speaker 6 (30:25):
Make yourself at home the Red Carpentraatment Hunt.
Speaker 13 (30:28):
Michelle Michaels is your host for the All Request the
Electric Lunch at noon.
Speaker 6 (30:32):
Hey, Michelle, I.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
Got a good one for the lunch.
Speaker 13 (30:34):
Great ideas on one oh two point five dv E.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
If you can't get enough. If you're Pittsburgh Steelers, then
check out the latest podcast from Steelers Nation Radio, a
part of the Steelers Audio Network.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
One hundreds to the Packers thirty five to twenty five
Sunday Night Football Akerscher Stadium. A lot of green in
the stands, olpack Go. A lot of green in the stands,
not so much on the field.
Speaker 6 (30:56):
All those people have sold their tickets should feel a
shame today, Randy, I agree, not as much. Actually, it's economics.
Speaker 12 (31:05):
Do what you gotta do, and those tickets were tickets
are expensive that there was money to be made.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
Hey, if Darius Lay can make a business decision, Steelers
season ticket holders can do the same thing as I
was saying. Not a lot of green on the field,
as much as there was in the stands last night,
field taking a beating a lot of white once again, Steelers.
Speaker 7 (31:25):
Might as well have been waving the white flag.
Speaker 6 (31:29):
Top five plays of the game were most impactful.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
However you want to look at this, The first half
was a real rock fight, and I thought the way
that Rogers handled that last drive to end the first
half after settling for Boswell field goals the entire time
was exactly what you wanted. Bled the clock down, got
it all the way down to thirty seven seconds before
he throws short to the right.
Speaker 6 (31:54):
DK Metcalf for the touchdown.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
Rogers turns, throws slam right touchdown.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
It's DK Metcalf from three yards out.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
Yeah, And Mike, like I said to me, they bled
the clock down to almost nothing there and made it
hard for them.
Speaker 12 (32:12):
BA got four h six to almost Yeah. It was
look great at that point. They were in control.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
And they were getting the ball back in the second half,
That's exactly what you want to do there. They get
the ball back, and then on third down of the
first drive, an obvious neutral zone in fraction, Rogers thinks
it's a free play alas it was expensive.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
Packer's showing pressure.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
They come early and Rogers throws it down field and
it's incomplete. Roman wilsonays it knocked away by Keyshawn Nixon.
Has to be flags on the field. I don't see
any flags. Well, Rogers thought he had a free play.
He's he's he's gesturing with his hands wondering what's going on.
They are clearly offside. This is incredible that no call
(32:59):
was made here.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Devonte Wyatt is clearly across.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
The line of scrimmage before the ball is snapped and
they don't call anything.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
Wow, how on earth did they miss that one?
Speaker 7 (33:11):
It's a big one.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
They huddled up even afterwards, and they were talking about
it on the broadcast, like has there ever been a
non penalty called? And then it resulted in a flag.
Speaker 6 (33:21):
Subsequently, Mahomes has done it to the refs.
Speaker 3 (33:23):
He's talked him into it, but Aaron Rodgers he's just
not hot enough for them anymore, so he couldn't talk
him into it.
Speaker 12 (33:28):
They didn't make sure they called a holding penalty on
Green Bay's three yard putt return, just to sort of
try to even it.
Speaker 6 (33:34):
Out a little bit.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Well, you know, I didn't get too bummed out about that,
only because we did get away with Proderick Jones leaving
a lot early on the drive that would end up being.
Speaker 6 (33:48):
A touchdown right now.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
So I thought that was kind of like, Okay, that's
a little karmic retribution ball don't lie situation.
Speaker 6 (33:55):
Let's I agree with.
Speaker 12 (33:56):
Bill when you complained about the refs after you lose,
you know what that makes you lose?
Speaker 6 (34:00):
There there?
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Oh man, So now you got third quarter and uh,
Rather this one was earlier than that.
Speaker 7 (34:12):
This was.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
The save on Williams touchdown, the nine yard touchdown, which
I couldn't stand this play because this is the one
that Darius lay just let him elate them into the
end zone.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Here shotgun formation for look, gets a snap, throws out
quickly wide rescriver screen to save you on. Williams scoots
up the left sideline and he is in for a
Green Bay.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
Packers touchdown eight yards. That was nine minutes left in
the third quarter. Yeah, I was after the Yes, it
was after that. Yeah, and Matt made it sixteen to fourteen.
After the extra point, that's when it started to crumble
for the defense and you saw them starting to quit.
Speaker 6 (34:55):
Thirty three years did not defend every blade of grass, No,
he not, because he's half day Selestuh.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
The throw we've been talking about this thirty three yarder
jump ball to Christian Watson. If you can stop him there,
you still got a shot. But they let Jordan Love
just throw it up for grabs and two Steelers can't
grab it.
Speaker 6 (35:18):
Watkins did or Watson did.
Speaker 2 (35:20):
Love rolling out to the right, heaving downfield, has a
man down there. It's Watson and it's caught at the
seven yard line and there is a flag on the play,
I believe. But a long completion to Christian Watson and
there's a flag on the far side of the field
and it's gonna be against the Steelers and it's gonna
be declined.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
Yeah, I forgot that.
Speaker 12 (35:39):
There was a push off before that, and that was
holding on Joey Porter. That was starting seven. You gotta
get off the field. It's fact breaker.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
Number one play of the game, though, is the one
we keep talking about where there were so many screw
ups on this and then you end up losing to
Shawn Elliott for what looks like is going to be
a considerable amount of time. A fifty nine yard reception
on third and five, third and five from the fifteen
and Tucker Craft pushes off a little bit, and you know,
(36:11):
I think that's a little gamesmanship.
Speaker 6 (36:12):
I'm not too pissed about that one.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
But the way that Deshaun Elliott reacted and Thornhill's inability
to bring.
Speaker 6 (36:19):
Him down there just sealed the Steelers faith.
Speaker 2 (36:22):
Love in the shotgun, gets the snap, Stephen's bringing pressure,
Love under duress clings it up a few minutes, caught
by Craft a lofting ball when he brings it in
hustling down the right sideline, dragging defenders, gets it tied
to thirty all the way down to the twenty six
yard line. It was a lame duck heaved up in
the air by Love, and it's Craft who makes the
(36:44):
adjustment to come back and make the catch and get
it all the way down to the twenty six yard
line where DeShawn Elliott now is writhing in pain.
Speaker 7 (36:52):
Patrick adding injury to insult on that play.
Speaker 3 (36:55):
Yeah, Patrick Queen just inches away from making a huge,
huge play there. If you bring Jordan Love down there
and make them punt out of their own end zone.
Maybe it's a different second half, or if you intercept
the lame duck that too.
Speaker 7 (37:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (37:10):
I was unfamiliar with Tucker Craft's game, but last night
he looked like Gronk dipped.
Speaker 3 (37:15):
And Ditka national tight ends day he gets two touchdowns.
Speaker 6 (37:18):
Thirty five twenty five.
Speaker 3 (37:20):
The Packers embarrassed the Steelers at home in every way possible,
and they did it while the Steelers were wearing the
stupidest looking jerseys ever.
Speaker 7 (37:28):
It's the khaki pants, man, Yeah.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
Curse of the khaki pants.
Speaker 7 (37:32):
But I don't hate the jerseys. I hate the khaki
pants and the yellow helmets.
Speaker 5 (37:37):
If they went murdered out black on black or black
with the rest of it, you would not hate that jersey.
Speaker 7 (37:42):
I promise.
Speaker 6 (37:42):
It's not the jersey. It's the khaki pants and the
helmet and the yellow sox. I hate the white numbers
on the front too, but yeah, I don't love that.
You wouldn't see the crest if you had black numbers.
Speaker 3 (37:52):
Well, our disappointment in the jerseys was far outweighed by
the output from the Steelers in the second half. I
thought that touchdown to end the half was going to
dictate the pace of the second half that the Steels
were gonna come out and feel pretty confident.
Speaker 6 (38:10):
I didn't like throwing the ball right away.
Speaker 3 (38:12):
I would have loved to keep establishing the run there, Mike,
eat up the clock because they owned the time of
possession in the first half, not the end.
Speaker 6 (38:20):
I know, Yeah, bootleg right.
Speaker 12 (38:22):
It would ended up being to throwaway and then quick
pass to the side to Friar Muth the game two
yards and then there was the penalty that wasn't.
Speaker 6 (38:32):
And Rumman Wilson should have caught that ball.
Speaker 12 (38:34):
Yeah, I didn't get a good look at the other
end of that. I mean he stayed in the fight. Yeah,
absolutely can't say that about a lot of guys.
Speaker 7 (38:43):
What was DK doing, I don't know, but I'm not
gonna talk crap about him. He's a massive person.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
But the two people that you really needed to make
big plays last night didn't DK dropping that one in
the end zone, were allowing the breakup, not securing the
ball in John hu Smith, Look, you're still in it,
two point conversion. There no reason to not come down
with that ball.
Speaker 12 (39:05):
Yeah, just you know, another example of their lack of finish,
and they're the Green Bay making more.
Speaker 7 (39:12):
Play making plays. Man that Pass Rush got to Rogers too.
Speaker 3 (39:17):
Jerry Doulac will join us at eight forty five Rob
King for that sour power hour.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
Steeler talks Power.
Speaker 7 (39:29):
Fittsburg Challenge Challenge.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
Renegade came up small lessli too.
Speaker 7 (39:35):
They should have played Renegade at the coin Flip.
Speaker 3 (39:39):
Sometimes I think you just should not play Renegade. I'm
in the minority here. I understand that it's an experience
for how I kind of feel like it should be
a more special like, oh, we got to write, like
when you go to see.
Speaker 6 (39:49):
Like, you know, The Grateful Dead and you're like.
Speaker 7 (39:51):
We got a dark scar.
Speaker 6 (39:52):
You know, like it should be a special thing.
Speaker 7 (39:55):
But it would be like going to Disney World and
not seeing the fireworks.
Speaker 3 (39:58):
You agreed, Jacob. Do people of your age group thinks similarly?
Speaker 6 (40:03):
Do you guys.
Speaker 8 (40:03):
Become totally redundant at this point and ineffective? I think
it's a fan service.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
Yeah, that's what it is. But that's okay. I mean,
in and of itself, it's not supposed to actually have magic.
Speaker 6 (40:15):
Yeah, but.
Speaker 8 (40:17):
It's also like a as we saw earlier this year,
who was it that it was Seattle use it for
their motivation.
Speaker 6 (40:25):
Now, yeah, other teams.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
I think the Bills did that to us one year too,
where they just like pretended like, yeah, this is our song.
Speaker 7 (40:30):
Well that only works when they win, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 5 (40:34):
Like when when the Steelers aren't playing well in the
fourth quarter, you're hearing the go Pack go on the broadcast,
You stay in it, you beat their ass.
Speaker 7 (40:43):
You don't hear those chants. You're not gonna scream go
Pack go if you're down two touchdowns.
Speaker 12 (40:48):
Well those Trunks might, but yeah, point take it. It was
very Dublin like, well you didn't think there's any Viking.
Speaker 5 (40:57):
Scow until Addison catches that ball and they get back
in that game.
Speaker 6 (41:03):
You know.
Speaker 12 (41:03):
Originally the Terrible Towel was just supposed to be a
special occasion thing.
Speaker 6 (41:08):
I see.
Speaker 12 (41:08):
It was supposed to be big game thing, a playoff
game thing, And wasn't it.
Speaker 5 (41:12):
Andy Russell was like, hey man, we're not a gimmicky
type team.
Speaker 7 (41:15):
We don't like this towel thing.
Speaker 6 (41:18):
I don't recall. I think Myrene actually got yelled at
him about that. I think Myrone, I'm sure he did.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
He got really pissed about that and then like schooled
him on the charity aspect of that whole thing. See,
I'm bummed that the jumbo package stopped working for them
because my idea was to replace the terrible towel with boloney,
Like did we actually have jumbo packages?
Speaker 6 (41:36):
Yeah? And twirl baloney at the game.
Speaker 7 (41:38):
I mean that's what the defense was doing last night, swirreling.
Speaker 12 (41:42):
I'm gonna jerk into another lane. Speaking of ridiculous calls,
the one on Rogers that was an incompletion where he's
faced about to get.
Speaker 6 (41:57):
Just dropped it, Like, but he knows the right.
Speaker 12 (42:01):
How is that not something that benefits the defense beyond
an incompletion? I mean, it's just can't say it scribing
because he's trying to throw the ball and being hit.
Speaker 6 (42:10):
I thought he fumbled it. I'm like he's trying to
do too much with to let my tweet to lead
my tweet.
Speaker 12 (42:15):
Ever, Really, things just kind of dropped it, like, oh,
there you go making a hand motion and he's so smart,
so you know the calls are the calls are screwed up.
Speaker 6 (42:22):
They're making it up as they go along, and you
just got to work around it.
Speaker 13 (42:26):
Free ride joy ride, whatever you ride, save a seat
for Chad Tyson. He's got a reloaded cut for the
DV Morning show Sports and a Workforce commercial free hour
at three, Thank You and Rockhoon Afternoons with Chad Tyson
on DV E.
Speaker 3 (42:44):
It's Randy from the DV Morning Show. You know, it's
more important than ever before to connect with people in
real life and how that connection can make these big, huge,
unexpected changes in our lives, like in Racing Wisconsin this
past summer. On a ninety degree day at and T,
technician Marco Herrera was called out to install fiber internet
and a house and he was like, man, this house
is really hot.
Speaker 6 (43:03):
And then these little kids came over.
Speaker 3 (43:05):
And started like showing them their toys and stuff, and
he starts talking to their mom, Anastasia Benson, and she
tells them It tells him that she's got five kids
and they lost their home to a fire in June
and this was just a temporary place they were living
and the AC wasn't working and that's why it was
so hot. So Marco called the supervisor, Anthony Kafferre, to
see what was possible. At and T approved the purchase
of a five hundred dollars ac unit almost immediately through
(43:26):
the company's Acts of Kindness program, which allows the technicians
to request support to impact customers in a special way.
Speaker 6 (43:33):
How great is that to see.
Speaker 3 (43:34):
A big company like AT and T connecting with and
taking care of its customers in such a meaningful way.
Speaker 6 (43:40):
Connecting changes everything at and T. It's football season, so
how about not wasting an
