Speaker 1 (00:02):
Keeler and Motes are on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
This is the Steeler's Blitz on your twenty four to
seven home of the Black and Gold SCN are Steelers
Nation Radio.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Good afternoon, Stealer Nation. How we do it?
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I feel electric like it's a fried dude.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Well, that's good, me too. Our number two, it is
the Steelers Blitz on the Steelers Audio Network. We rock
and we roll into the final hour of the week,
final hour of the day. Of course, it is a
Fixings Friday, and it's time mixing to really turn it
up because part of those fixings, perhaps the main course
(01:11):
of those fixings.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Don't you do that?
Speaker 4 (01:13):
I think you could even argue, is a little thing
we call five Star Friday. It's our matchup segment. Professor Motz.
He's gonna tell you the five key matchups to keep
an eye on that will determine the outcome of Steelers
Brown Sunday, one o'clock Akroscher Stadium.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
We're humbled and excited to be in these five star matchups.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Five star matchup. Somebody leaving here with the loss not
gonna be.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
A five Star Friday matchup. Number one, well, well, well.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I know they won last time.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
But they ain't that good. Ay, so let's get right
to it. James Winston missed the crab legs miss to
deliver us from pick sixes. Lord have mercy, let the
church say amen. And unfortunately you actually know again, I
said a man that just yet you get to go
against this Pittsburgh Steelers second dairy.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
And why is that important?
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Tell me Jameis doesn't really respect boundaries.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
When you watch him play.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
There are certain things at the quarterback position that says
you should not put that ball there. Why because that
defender is good enough to make that play? I e
a boundary. But we will see him constantly take chances
with the football. Sometimes he makes some really good plays.
Told you threw for almost five hundred y'alls and three
(02:33):
tities in the game just on Monday night.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
But also said that, hey, he doesn't respect the boundaries.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
Hen's the reason why he had three of them pick
things and one pick six two. You catch what we're saying, Okay,
So would that being the case, we got a very
opportunistic secondary that does do a great job of catching
the football. We talk about West Virginia's finest Vinny Beanie
Bishop had him on the podcast yesterday. Checked that interview
out on YouTube when you get it. But not only him.
(03:01):
Have you looked at Dante Jackson. He likes to get
a lot of turnovers, ass five interceptions, huh. And I
know we always holler about the whole manka, manka, manka.
We ain't even worried about him. If he get one, great,
but if not, you know JPJ got one already too. Right,
it's multiple. You catch what I'm saying, right, you catch
what I am saying. This is another great opportunity to
(03:23):
come on. He touched paint.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Don't know that. That's mister touchdown, okay, mister touchdown.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
He got an interception and a touchdown.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
He touched down, he touched down. Okay.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
But more importantly, this is a week where we gotta
catch the ones that he throws to us. He will.
He did it in the snow game and who caught it. Hello,
mister Dante Jackson. We appreciate you.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Right, he's going to throw it to you.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
You have to catch the ones that he throws to
you because he is a good enough player that he's
gonna make some plays out there. But the reason Jamis
has never been completely married in a football since is
because he doesn't respect the boundary of I can't make
every throw. There is nobody on earth they can make
every throw. Even Mahomes had to learn that. Alright, don't
(04:04):
do that one, Brady, don't do that one, Josh Allen,
don't do that one.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Sorry, He's gonna win MVP this year. He's gotten those
turnovers up his game. But that's the thing, it's like, yo,
don't do that.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
James still to this day has it pertained to this
Monday night. He still hasn't got that part out of
his game. Just hit and we have to continue to
take advantage of that. So that's the first matchup.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Baby, don't let this be the week that he gets
that part out of his game. Five Star Friday matchup
number two.
Speaker 5 (04:32):
Now, I'm excited for this one because this is a
rematch in Unfortunately it was not in our favor, so
I had to spend the block. Jerry Judy, you look good.
You looked real good on Monday night versus your former employer.
Sometimes when you go get your former employer, you really
want to show them what they missed out on. It's
kind of like when you get out of relationship and
you just happen to come across that that old ex
(04:54):
Look how happy I am, and you like, yeah, you
see that. I even tie my shoes with a smile,
now a yeah, you see look at my headphones they
even they even the music even plays.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Better out of these. You like that? All right? So
I get why Jerry looked like how Jerry looked. I
get it.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
But I've also had that feeling where you felt like,
you know what, man, I got, I got got. But
now it's the rematch. Now I get a chance to
write the ship. Now I get that second chance at you. Ooh,
you know I ain't gonna miss it now. You got
me the first time. Hey, I ain't gonna he have
you in the first half. I ain't gonna like you
having the first half. But now this time, oh baby
JPJ I know what time you on. I've heard the
(05:34):
people how they talk about you afully. You ain't really
paying attention to that. Go back to the first segment
of y'all know what I'm talking about, all right, But
there's another great opportunity. Man, Jerry Judy is playing some
big time ball right now, and Jamis is force feeding him.
Not just feeding him, force feed him. He is that's
his guy. He has found a lot of comfort in
Jerry Judy. It's gonna be on you, JPJ. Make those
(05:56):
plays man physical at the line of scrimmage. If they
call a who cares. You just can't allow Jerry Judy
to have that type of night that he just had
because that will throw a monkey wrench in the whole
equation and we do not need that. But JPG is
more than capable of it. And that's why this has
to be one of the ones for us man big time.
(06:16):
This is one of those games within the game for sure.
Five Star Friday Match from number three, the.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Big pay back bound up signed for some payback.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Man.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
You know why because I remember I remember just two
weeks ago, a little of two weeks ago Thursday Night
foot but they were talking about how Jack Conckland.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Oh man, we don't even heard about TJ wat today.
TJ is quiet.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
Have you seen the game at Miles Gurtts having Where
is TJ TJ TJ TJ.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Nick Herby made to play TJ TJ TJ. Right, everybody's on.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
That the big pay back. Well, Jack Conklin, TJ said
he got his. He left the snow tires at home
that night. You ain't gotta have no snow tires this week, baby,
all right. I had to talk to the weatherman. Weatherman said,
ain't no doing this forecast. Play TJ. Bring out the
ones you play here. You know the ones that you
playing with the get off. You know you had them
out there last week, And says Snatty, you can just
(07:07):
bring the ones, all right, that's the matchup though, Jack
Conklin versus TJ.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Why we gotta have it?
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Man?
Speaker 5 (07:13):
We understand what Jamie says as a passer. We understand
what they can do in terms of some of their
eligible receivers. Right, they have really good players, even at
the tight ends spot and Joke good player.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
But the mismatch has to be what we do in
the trenches.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
You've heard me say it multiple times this season. You're
gonna continue to hear me say it. We play our
best when we win in the trenches. Versus Cincinnati, we
were able to what protect Russ and still create pressure
on Burrow to the point where we had multiple sacks,
multiple hits and then we even had the big strip
sack to get up out of there. That has to
(07:49):
be the case this week. But it only starts. It
only happens if TJ is whooping Jack Conklin's tail from
start to finish. And I think he's gonna be a
little bit motivated because I know you heard them comments
from a Miles Garrett on the front end of the game,
beginning of the game, obviously during the game, and the
most definitely after the game. So uh yeah, yeah, I
(08:10):
think you're ready for this one.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Plenty of bulletin board material there to work with.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
You better believe that five star Friday matchup Numero quatro.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Man, this is the beauty when you play a team
twice in two and a half weeks, especially if it
doesn't go in your favorite You got a lot of rematches,
all right, you got a lot of Can I spend
the block on that one real quick? You punched me
on my eye last time I seen you. Can I
get run this back? I got to get my lick
back real quick. Everybody knows abou getting get licked back.
Everybody knows how that feels. Where this in the family,
(08:44):
with your siblings, with a cousin, with your best friend,
with dude on your tea, with the little girl of
your class, Like, everybody knows how that Oh you got me.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Oh, I get a chance to get you back on. Huh.
We ain't really like our run situation looked last time. Man.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
We didn't like how we looked as a whole from
just in the trench's physicality standpoint.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Man, we thought they're guys.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
Dalvin Tomlinson, you heard that name right, Shelby Harris, you
heard her name right, Isaia Maguire, you heard that name right.
We thought that they made a little bit too many
plays snow or not last time we played them. Agreed,
We felt that we weren't leaning on them at the
end of the plays and pushing the pals and regulating it.
In that sense, we were being the ones getting regulated.
(09:25):
We don't like that. That's not how we operate. So
those big three, I gotta have you again versus my
big three, And I'm talking Isaac say my lam, I'm
talking about West Virginia University's finest mister almost Heaven, Zach
Frasier careers in Mason McCormick, my one double la brother.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Yeah, we gotta win in the trenches. Though. We can't
run the ball.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
If they don't win this matchup, we can't take the
shots we want to take down Phil if they don't
keep those guys at bay. But that's the matchup, man.
And they're big physical guys. But guess what those big
three that we got off big physical as well. Oh
and I don't know if you know this, but Zach Fraser,
he also was a wrestling in high school.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Kicked a real booty.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
He wrestled in high school.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
It was crazy, man, that would make it.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
I mean, I guess I can kind of see it
now you point that out.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
I mean, two losses good.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
I think two losses in four years, multiple championship is
pretty good.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
They said the one loss, it was like both losses
he just lost. It was a d Q for one
of them.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Rooki years yea okay, Oh, like he didn't get.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
The rules or something. It was kind of like how
John Jones has one loss on his record.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
You're like, who John Jones? Looseter is like himself because
he almost murdered a guy in the ring. It was
like that I heard.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
I heard I already beat that guy later on in
the state playoffs. You know how, even though I have
no idea what you're talking about, I heard he beat
that same guy later on. You knows it really.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Absolute dog, absolute dog. So shout out to Zach Fraser.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Five Stuff Food.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Day matchup number five.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
This is the one that matters the absolute most every
game that we've played against them that we have felt
good about it. This guy has been pretty quiet on
the handful of games where the outcome has not reflected
what we felt it should.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
This guy's unfortunately been able to make a little noise. Okay,
I think I see where this is going.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Sometimes he makes noise with his play. I definitely see
where this is going.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Sometimes he's made noise with his words, context cluse, and
we've even seen.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Him make noise using uh other people's helmets. Okay, ladies
and gins, boys and girls, I'm talking about Miles Geart.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Okay, last time we played Miles, Miles played pretty well.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
I know we try to minimize it and say, whoa
he do anything in the second half. When you get
three sacks in the first half, it really doesn't matter
what you do in the second half, Okay, I'm just
telling you as a player, that's just how we look
at it. So you got three sacks, man, all right,
six sect in the game would have been even greater.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Sure, but you've got three secs.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
In a game in a force one I was gonna say,
don't forget about that, A pretty big one to.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
That, all right.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
So with that being the case, dan More, you know
I've been dan More Club president for the past couple
of years now, man, Yeah, shout out the Wolf.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Yes, Wolf is definitely part of it.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
Yes, but we're in the dan Club fan club, dan
More fan Club, all right, club thing, all right, good,
I'm a part of the club, man T shirt.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
I'm a board member, all right, I got I got
a rank. All right. If I'm not the problem vice president,
I'm up there at the top treasure. We need you.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
This is your chance to continue to run up that bag, okay,
because man, were talking about that salary cap right, Well, hey,
now it's your turn to put pressure on the salary caps.
You'll turn to get your check, all right, because you've
put together a heck of a career thus far, regardless
of what people might say or lack of appreciation they
might use towards you.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
I know what you mean.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
I know exactly your impact on this running and past offense.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
I don't take you for granted.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
So god there and continue to show why you deserve
to get that check. Man, go out there and show
why you deserve to be somebody starting left tackle for
a long time.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Regrets if it's here or elsewhere.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
Man, But the only one you can do that is
to continue to show up versus these type of guys.
You faced Miles Garrett countless times being in the division.
We can only count a handful of times where it's been.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Louds they'll say he's done pretty well.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
So let's let's make sure that we give Dan his flowers,
because we know Miles Garrett is a reigning Defensive Player
of the Year award winner like current like current last
name on the troupe. Yeah, like just happened, kind of
like Jesus birthday, jess birthday coming up a couple weeks.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
He just got that trophe like Thankskeevn's names on the
trophy right now.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Yeah, like he just got like it's still his yeah yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
Okay, So for Damn Moore, you face this on countless times,
and you've done your job and you held your own
on numerous occasions.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Let's get back to that.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Blame it on the snow seat comfort if you need to,
but let's get back to what we know works. You know,
what you do and you know exactly how to do
it versus this guy. So let's go out there and
show it on on Sunday night or excuse me, Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Had a feeling that that was going to pop up
on this list somewhere, Professor, don't have to have that
sounder right, Come on man for Monday along with Johnny
Drama Professor motes one more time for those who just
want to double check their notes or maybe joined us late.
The five matchups that will determine the outcome of Steelers
(14:36):
Brown Sunday, one o'clock at after sure state, Well.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
We got to start with the crab leg man, mister
Jamis Winston, and of course our secondary he is gonna
put the ball in harm's way, take advantage of it,
catch the ones he throws to you. Jerry Judy, man
shout out to that revenge game. But unfortunately you ain't
got a revenge with us. We got revenge with you now,
So Jerry Judy, what up?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
JPJ. I need it in my life.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
Come on, baby, go out there and show them with working
with I know you got it, so let's get it.
I don't know who your daddy is. I know he
ain't gonna let you get done. You can't not never sleeping, Nah,
your daddy ain't going for it. All right, all right,
But then after that man Jack Conklin, wooh, you felt
good about what you did on Thursday and in the
little snow hunh, you felt really good about yourself.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Hum. Miles, Gary probably had you over there really beating
on your chest. Hunh. Well great, because now you gotta
pissed off TJ. Watt. Congratulations, you get to take on TJ. Watt.
Huh uh huh. I can't wait.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
Then after that, man the Big Three to enter your
d line, Dalvin Tomlinson, Shelby Harris, Isaiah McGuire versus our
big boy trio, Isaac say you might lose Zach Fraser,
Mason McCormick.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
What was Fraser's wrestling record again in high school?
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Do you remember? One hundred and fifty million and two? There
it is, all right?
Speaker 5 (15:44):
And then last, but certainly not least, mister Miles Garrett,
the raining Defense Player of the Year versus Damn More.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
It's a five star matchup.
Speaker 4 (15:58):
Because we're in there.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
I don't want to see anything.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Brands putting a fake cran on Miles Garrett head again.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
All right.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
First of all, you don't even have a logo on
your helmet, so how could you wear a crown? Second
of all, that's Lebron James's thing, if anything. All right,
and he left you guys twice, so just just settle down.
One guy who would never leave us, Brian middle name Baco.
We didn't figure out what that middle name is, so
you can really be part of the family. Bacco joins
(16:32):
us on the other side with all the latest from practice.
Who's in, who's out? How's he feeling about certain status
of status? Updates of current Steelers down there. We'll get
to that. We'll also get his prediction as well to
keep yours rolling in. We'll read them before we get
out of here. At Westleyeler at the Body fifty two
duh by the Steelers Blitz on the Steelers Audio Network.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
This is the Steelers Blitz with Wesley Euler and Arthur
Motes on your twenty four to seven Home of the
Black and Gold sn R.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Rolling along here on.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
A Fixen's Friday as we get you ready for game day.
Of course, part of our starting lineup on a Fixen's Friday.
It's Shaler's finest our buddy, Brian Baco covers the Steelers
for the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. He joins us with all
the latest as always, cousin, thank you for taking the time.
Let's get right into it. Alex Heismith gon play on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yeah, whoa, I like the company.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
Yes, he didn't even think about no hesitation. That's what
I need to hear, baby.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Short and sweet. Did he say as much?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I don't think he talked today, but I mean he's yeah,
he's been available throughout the week, obviously being listed full yesterday.
I'm pretty confident in that one. But I did talk
to Calvin Austin and he said he is feeling good
and inside baseball, if the player is even talking to
the media during practice week, that generally means they are
out of concussion protocol. So everything pointing up for number nineteen,
(18:29):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I like it all right.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
So with that being the case, knowing that both of
those guys are potentially back in the fold, where do
we anticipating usage wise? Man, with Heigh Smooth coming back,
her Big still in the full, we still anticipating seeing
that rotation going on out there.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I think so, you know, could this be a spot
where Mike Tomlin even gets a little creative para astin
cooks up some of those wrinkles with three outside linebackers
on the field, I would say maybe. But also that
could be a club they save in their bag for
Ravens round two, because they've done that in the past
against Lamar. So I understand wanting to be thoughtfully non rhythmic,
(19:10):
but yeah, I mean, they're about to have that rotation
in as good as shape as it's been all season
because they really haven't had the full compliment since Preston
Smith got here. So that's why Mike Tomlin was really uh,
you know, showing that unbright oled excitement for it on Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Baco.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
I know someone who is excited to get back out
there on Sunday again, it's got to be Joey Porter Junior,
and it is. You know, it's not necessarily Jamar Chase
that he's lining up against, but still a really capable,
really good wide receiver and Jerry Judy one who certainly
made some plays when these teams met just a couple
of weeks ago. What sense, what sense of you gotten
(19:48):
from young JP J on where he's at this week
and just you know the opportunity for him to uh to,
you know, to to go out there and have a
strong performance.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah, and you may have seen the Jerry He made
some plays on Monday nights for goodness gracious. He's got
five straight games with at least five catches or in
seventy plus yards, and career game against his old team,
the Broncos on Monday night. So he's rolling right now.
I don't know if the Steelers are gonna have Joey
shadow him or if he'll play sides because Cedric Tillman
(20:21):
for the Browns is another bigger guy. I mean, he's
not T Higgins, but he's T Higgins like in his
body type and everything. So I'll be curious to see
how they deploy Joey. But I do get the sense
from him that he's a quiet confidence this week, like
not really seeing a boisterous Joey Porter Junior. I think
(20:43):
he's he's probably not happy the way that game went
and then obviously all the spotlight that comes with it.
So yeah, I mean, I think he's itching to get
back out there, and I think his teammates believe him.
His postgame presser in Cinti Demonte Casey was standing right
next to him and me or somebody else at what
do you do to adjust to all these flags? And
(21:03):
Casey was yelling, was here nothing, We're coming right back down.
I'm straight pressing. So that's what they want to see
from twenty four. They just need him to clean it
up a little bit to do that.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
Now.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
You're absolutely right, and I love the response and support
by CAZy as well.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Ben, Yes, indeed.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
But I'm gonna ask you the serious question, man, because
we's trying to bury the lead.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
How'd you feel about NFL hard Knocks? Man, come home, baby.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
We saw some real life action going on in some
real life games with our black and goal guys.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Man, I loved it most. I never thought i'd see
the day that the Steelers run hard knocks. I would
have loved it when I was growing up watching it
in high school, and I guess probably more so college.
But then even once I started covering the team on
the beat, I remember thinking to myself, that'd be cool,
but it's never gonna happen. What's happening. We're living it.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
We are though it was awesome.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I've always loved the show. I think they do a
great job. I know some people will poke holes in it,
and it's not as edgy as it once was. That's
probably true, you know, you show how the sausage is
made so many times, and teams are going to start
to pull back on that a little bit. But I
still think it's really enlightening to get all that inside access.
I've never seen, you know, those inside of some of
(22:14):
those Steelers meeting rooms. So I think they did a
cool job with it. And I would assume the microscope
is going to be on the Steelers again in a
large way this week, considering the Ravens are off, the
Bengals are playing a Monday night game against the Simpsons.
I think I don't even know if the Cowboys are
gonna be there, and we've got the Steelers Browns is
(22:34):
one of the best games all week because of the
pettiness between these two. So hopefully we see more of
Mike Tomlin in company on Tuesday Night.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
All right, mister Bacco, Now that we've gotten the ha
has and the hellos and the the t's crossed and
the eyes, the ols.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
All the pleasantries, all all those little surface levels.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
It's time for the main event, how.
Speaker 4 (23:01):
Does a playown Sunday one o'clock Agroscer Stadium, the fourth
of the four straight AFC North games for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Do they get vengeance on the Browns Sunday afternoon?
Speaker 1 (23:17):
I could see this going either way. I could, as
much as the Steelers normally would. If not for some
of the extracurriculars a couple Thursday nights ago, I would
have probably chocked this up as all right, the Browns
won their Super Bowl, this is an exhibition for them.
The Steelers will get their lick back easily at home
(23:38):
this time. But because there was so much feistiness that
came with that loss, it almost feels like the Bronwnds
still have plenty of motivation to come in here and
play Spoiler. That said, Fellas, I just don't think they're
gonna do it. I think the Steelers offense is rolling
too much right now. They're a pick your poisoned unit
(23:59):
with Russ the way he's operating to George Pickens, Pat
Bryar muse, I think we could see a little more
Mike Williams this week. I mean, granted the bar is
pretty low there. One catch would be more Mike Williams
this week, but I think he gets back involved to
some extent. I don't know how much. But then you've
got Najie Harrison and a fired up Jalen Warren in
(24:20):
the running game too. I don't think the Browns are
gonna have enough answers defensively. They're leaking oil on the
back end at safety, particularly free safety. So I think
the Steelers put up thirty again. Twenty two. Steelers win
it at Agricure Stadium.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I like that. You have me nerves. I'm not gonna lie.
You had me in the first half. Yeah, I was going.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
I thought so too.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
I was like, he's doing it again.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
I come on, man, the Steelers for the first time
since good Lord, before we were born, back.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Eighty eight, he shotting the money from eighty eight.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
Shout out to eighty eight man. It's a great year, man,
thought the most born to an eighty man. I shout
all my eighty eight babies out there, if y'all know,
y'all know, man.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
And this also would be three wins in a row
for Cleveland, which they haven't done since eighty nine.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Oh yeah, we'll need that.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
The history of it's pretty interesting. As well.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Certainly is one that has been slanted in the Black
and Gold's favor, and hopefully that continues Sunday afternoon, mister Baco,
make sure you're checking out all of Brian's work in
the Post Gazette. Thank you for the time as always,
and we'll see you on Sunday.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
My pleasure, as always.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
My pleasure is at the chick on the end of
Chick fil A is not open on Sundays.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
We should go to chick fil A today.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
You think they got a Chick fil A and shaler.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
You need to fore got chick fil over here. And
if nine they got in shady sight.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Now that you mentioned it, Chickilance for fire would totally
kill something.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
It's always time for Chick fil A. Don't play. Chick
fil A is always on the menu, Bro, it's chick
fil A.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
They got something you want, healthy, you want, you want,
you want the quick nuggets, like what you want?
Speaker 3 (25:56):
They got all whatever you looking for. They got anything
you're looking for.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
Man, love chick greatest weakness in life, Like I just
found the answer. You know, when you sit down for
job interviews, and I haven't had one of those in forever,
but you know, when you sit down for job interviews.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
Next.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
That did kind of sound ego testicals, didn't it. I've
met as we've been doing this for a while. I'm
really happy. Talk to my agent. Show me the money,
Jerry Maguire.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
I'm just glad I know you. I'm glad they let
me here.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
You know, any job interviews they like to ask you, like,
what's your greatest strength, what's your greatest weakness. The next
time I get asked what's my greatest weakness, I'm just
gonna say fast food.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
That's my greatest weakness. Fast food.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
It all sounds delicious, Chick fil A, Taco, bell canes
of the drive past, these places out of here to
get home.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
You need your food to survive.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Though, anywhere with a drive through window is my kryptonite.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Here's about his health. That's all positive.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
On the other yeah, clearly on the other side although,
but but I do though, because it's the first step
to fixing a problem that you have is admitting you
have a problem, right, But if you're.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Perceiving it as a problem and it's not could be
doing damage.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
Well No, it once was when I weighed like one
hundred and ninety pounds. Now I'm at a much healthier
like one sixty one fifty eight.
Speaker 5 (27:18):
Hey is life man, Drink water not too much. That's
eating food not too much. No, just get your rest,
but not too much. It's all It's all about a balance, right.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Just eat well like ninety percent of the time and
the other ten percent of the time fast food.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Sleep. Don't sleep for too long though good eight hours
every evening. Travel, but don't drivel too much though only on.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
The Steelers Jet. We gotta get to a break final
segment coming up. You know what that means. Last chance

Speaker 5 (29:09):
But we don't do cap baby, just like I got
Brian Bacho shout out to the best.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Haven't changed our number since the seventh grade. One thing
that remains the same as well, had it changed a
couple of times, just a couple of times, just quote
one person on this program might have had to lease
people with passion had to go with gotta look crazy.
One thing, though, that has been standard that we have
not let go from the past is here we go song,
especially not this year when we've been cooking cousins.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Bars on bars on.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Bars and I got something special for the Cleveland Browns

ha jokey joke a couple of weeks ago on Thursday, right.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Big payback.
Speaker 4 (29:50):
But my parents once told me, it's not about who
laughs first, it's about who laughs last. Why, And you'll
never worry about laughing last if you've been laughing the
whole time, or something like that.
Speaker 5 (30:02):
Something like that. That's not about right, that's not about right.
I think Abraham Lincoln said that also.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
So it's on the internet, so it must be true.
So they think they got jokes, but I got bars, Maestro,

Stocks up certainly is bye bye, bye bye bye, Jim
from Kentucky. You gonna lead off our predictions here as
we get rolling, he says, nice and simple. Steelers twenty
four Browns twenty one say tweets us and says, it's
a grud match, grudge match, blood match, grudge match, blood match,
(33:33):
no games, no flash, Let's get right and show these
boys what's up. Twenty four to nothing. Watch shows up
big time and.
Speaker 5 (33:40):
I like the no flash. If you know, you know
talking about Miles Gary, wein got time for that.
Speaker 4 (33:43):
Doug tweets all the Steeler nation walked, watched Hard Knocks,
and we're gonna be lit on Sunday. Steelers win twenty
four to three. A couple blowouts to get us started here.
Steeler Man seven tweets and says fourteen nineteen eighty eight
and twenty two score pick six for Minca as well.
Steelers thirty eight to seventeen over the Browns who ride?
Speaker 3 (34:02):
I want that meg.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Thirty eight seventeen. Though, let's see here as we continue,
Jeff tweets and says, hand out those fixons. The Steelers
are going to get revenge Wilson in the offense, get
(34:25):
touchdowns instead of field goals, and the defense is much
better this time around. Steelers twenty seven, Brownies thirteen less
go twenty seven thirteen feels like guess popular score as
well to Steeler Nation nine twenty says I'm turned up
to eleven today thirty four to twenty one. Let's get
that payback? Jamis two interceptions, JPJ has a pick six.
(34:46):
George Pickens goes Ham to ride.
Speaker 5 (34:49):
Now, listen, you know how GP feeling this week? He
didn't want who set the tone at the d gay.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
Some type of way?
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Uh huh?
Speaker 3 (34:55):
Who is he feeling? Some type of way? Some might
say that.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
Mike Jones tweets Rusco's for over three hundred yard in
the air and three touchdowns nause and uh and h
Cordello Patterson with rushing touchdowns, three interceptions, uh TJ Alex
cam herbig cause chaos. Good guys win forty five to
twenty seven over the elves.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
Who' tweetd that you that?
Speaker 4 (35:17):
Mike Jones, who angry Bike Lane says, I'm sticking on brand.
I think everyone is taking this reckoning thing for granted.
I'm worried the defense will be flat. Russ will put
up a valiant effort, but will settle for too many
field goals. Bad guys twenty eight, Good guys sixteen on brand.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
I like keep the same energy.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
I like consistency.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
Abraham tweet us and says, Steelers win thirty to seventeen.
TJ two sacks, three interceptions for the defense.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
Garrett gets zero sacks.
Speaker 5 (35:47):
Do you remember how foreign it fell into? Predictediting over
twenty points? Sah, and now we will say thirty.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
Hit thirty, We could do thirty.
Speaker 4 (35:56):
Ricky says what's up West and coach Coach modes and predict.
The good guys win forty two to twenty. Revenge is
of dish, best served cold, big bad wolf. That's Rod
Dalla changes his name upon us all the time. Steelers
win six feet three. Rod share a line, maybe a
d D tweets us and says, good afternoon, and my
best Tomlin voice. I think we come out mad after
(36:18):
a few weeks ago. Get them and smack them in
the mouth the first possession and off from there.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Good guys.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Twenty eight team named after a color twenty all right,
last refresh, here we go, speak now or hold your piece.
Cuban dan Dale tweets, I would feel better if Baco
had gone against the boys, but I still feel good.
Twenty seven to nineteen. Close at the halftime, but in
the end, not so much. Steelers defense to takeaways. Linda
(36:45):
tweets sweet revenge Steelers win twenty eight to seven. Bill
says I'm making deliveries in Ohio. I'm hoping the Steelers
deliver that win thirty two to twelve. Matt tweets and says,
what's up? Fellas a little worried about this game, Uh,
until I got in my car and Renegade started playing.
It's a signed Steelers thirty three Browns twenty four. Richie
(37:07):
tweets and says, Steelers forty eight Browns seventeen seven sacks
coming in hot. Also, how about my Red Raiders?
Speaker 3 (37:14):
All right?
Speaker 4 (37:15):
That happened with our old head football coach doesn't count.
No new era, all right, new coach.
Speaker 5 (37:19):
New stop bringing up all the stuff, man, coach Man
go yeah yeah, turned.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
On Frank with the last word of the day. Steelers
thirty three, Cleveland nineteen. Coach t Stars on Hard Knocks Again.
I think we all agree on that as a prediction.
But Mozi, how do you think it plays me Sunday?
Speaker 5 (37:38):
You know they going to be the focus they are. Listen,
the Browns are going to be the focus this week
and the Browns are playing who this week? Man?
Speaker 3 (37:44):
The Steelers come on, baby, listen.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Whether it goes well over, whether it's a blowlout, we
are going to be. Whether it's a heartbreaking loss, it's gonna.
Speaker 3 (37:51):
Be the Steelers. Yes, absolutely, man. But how's the score prediction? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (37:55):
But for me, Man, I got it as a competitive game,
Like I said, the Browns with Jamis win said, they
can score.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
They are very competitive and they believe.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
At the same time, they still do some of the
things that put them in the position to have a
record that reflects an inconsistent team and that is not
protecting the football, specifically at the quarterback position. So I
have a twenty seven to twenty still is getting a
job done. I'd like us to ultimately be up about tennish,
maybe even fourteen is late in the game. And this
(38:23):
is the you know, the the Joe Burrow score, the touchdown,
but you got to get the on side kick scenario
song and dance, and we'll come here on Monday and
play the whole.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
Did we win by enough? Was it close enough? Are
we for real? Real contenders? Are we just frost?
Speaker 5 (38:37):
And we'll do that whole song and dance, but it'll
be on a victory Monday, So make sure Johnny's ready.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
I concur you know you and I feel like our
score predictions have been pretty close all year. We haven't
had one exactly the same, and the words of you,
we're Simpatiko, my friend, We're not far off. I'm gonna
go twenty eight twenty one Steelers not the embarrassing multiple
score victory revenge. Maybe Steeler Nation is thirsty four, but
(39:02):
one that also feels pretty comfortable despite being just a
touchdown victory. Maybe Cleveland scores late to you know, in
garbage time to feel better and it's never really in
doubt something like that. Twenty eight to twenty one. I
did one last refresh here, okay, because I am a
man of the people and DJ the sparky gets in
at the buzzer. Let's go big win, big win, thirty
(39:23):
four to twelve for the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
All right, had a buzzer, he just went off. You
beat the buzzer for us. You said he got a buzzer.
You are the professor.
Speaker 4 (39:38):
I mean you know.
Speaker 3 (39:41):

Keeler and Motes are on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
This is the Steeler's Blitz on your twenty four to
seven home of the Black and Gold SCN are Steelers
Nation Radio.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Good afternoon, Stealer Nation. How we do it?
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (00:46):
I feel electric like it's a fried dude.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Well, that's good, me too. Our number two, it is
the Steelers Blitz on the Steelers Audio Network. We rock
and we roll into the final hour of the week,
final hour of the day. Of course, it is a
Fixings Friday, and it's time mixing to really turn it
up because part of those fixings, perhaps the main course
(01:11):
of those fixings.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Don't you do that?
Speaker 4 (01:13):
I think you could even argue, is a little thing
we call five Star Friday. It's our matchup segment. Professor Motz.
He's gonna tell you the five key matchups to keep
an eye on that will determine the outcome of Steelers
Brown Sunday, one o'clock Akroscher Stadium.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
We're humbled and excited to be in these five star matchups.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Five star matchup. Somebody leaving here with the loss not
gonna be.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
A five Star Friday matchup. Number one, well, well, well.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I know they won last time.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
But they ain't that good. Ay, so let's get right
to it. James Winston missed the crab legs miss to
deliver us from pick sixes. Lord have mercy, let the
church say amen. And unfortunately you actually know again, I
said a man that just yet you get to go
against this Pittsburgh Steelers second dairy.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
And why is that important?
Speaker 5 (02:06):
Tell me Jameis doesn't really respect boundaries.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
When you watch him play.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
There are certain things at the quarterback position that says
you should not put that ball there. Why because that
defender is good enough to make that play? I e
a boundary. But we will see him constantly take chances
with the football. Sometimes he makes some really good plays.
Told you threw for almost five hundred y'alls and three
(02:33):
tities in the game just on Monday night.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
But also said that, hey, he doesn't respect the boundaries.
Speaker 5 (02:39):
Hen's the reason why he had three of them pick
things and one pick six two. You catch what we're saying, Okay,
So would that being the case, we got a very
opportunistic secondary that does do a great job of catching
the football. We talk about West Virginia's finest Vinny Beanie
Bishop had him on the podcast yesterday. Checked that interview
out on YouTube when you get it. But not only him.
(03:01):
Have you looked at Dante Jackson. He likes to get
a lot of turnovers, ass five interceptions, huh. And I
know we always holler about the whole manka, manka, manka.
We ain't even worried about him. If he get one, great,
but if not, you know JPJ got one already too. Right,
it's multiple. You catch what I'm saying, right, you catch
what I am saying. This is another great opportunity to
(03:23):
come on. He touched paint.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
Don't know that. That's mister touchdown, okay, mister touchdown.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
He got an interception and a touchdown.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
He touched down, he touched down. Okay.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
But more importantly, this is a week where we gotta
catch the ones that he throws to us. He will.
He did it in the snow game and who caught it. Hello,
mister Dante Jackson. We appreciate you.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Right, he's going to throw it to you.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
You have to catch the ones that he throws to
you because he is a good enough player that he's
gonna make some plays out there. But the reason Jamis
has never been completely married in a football since is
because he doesn't respect the boundary of I can't make
every throw. There is nobody on earth they can make
every throw. Even Mahomes had to learn that. Alright, don't
(04:04):
do that one, Brady, don't do that one, Josh Allen,
don't do that one.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Sorry, He's gonna win MVP this year. He's gotten those
turnovers up his game. But that's the thing, it's like, yo,
don't do that.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
James still to this day has it pertained to this
Monday night. He still hasn't got that part out of
his game. Just hit and we have to continue to
take advantage of that. So that's the first matchup.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Baby, don't let this be the week that he gets
that part out of his game. Five Star Friday matchup
number two.
Speaker 5 (04:32):
Now, I'm excited for this one because this is a
rematch in Unfortunately it was not in our favor, so
I had to spend the block. Jerry Judy, you look good.
You looked real good on Monday night versus your former employer.
Sometimes when you go get your former employer, you really
want to show them what they missed out on. It's
kind of like when you get out of relationship and
you just happen to come across that that old ex
(04:54):
Look how happy I am, and you like, yeah, you
see that. I even tie my shoes with a smile,
now a yeah, you see look at my headphones they
even they even the music even plays.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Better out of these. You like that? All right? So
I get why Jerry looked like how Jerry looked. I
get it.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
But I've also had that feeling where you felt like,
you know what, man, I got, I got got. But
now it's the rematch. Now I get a chance to
write the ship. Now I get that second chance at you. Ooh,
you know I ain't gonna miss it now. You got
me the first time. Hey, I ain't gonna he have
you in the first half. I ain't gonna like you
having the first half. But now this time, oh baby
JPJ I know what time you on. I've heard the
(05:34):
people how they talk about you afully. You ain't really
paying attention to that. Go back to the first segment
of y'all know what I'm talking about, all right, But
there's another great opportunity. Man, Jerry Judy is playing some
big time ball right now, and Jamis is force feeding him.
Not just feeding him, force feed him. He is that's
his guy. He has found a lot of comfort in
Jerry Judy. It's gonna be on you, JPJ. Make those
(05:56):
plays man physical at the line of scrimmage. If they
call a who cares. You just can't allow Jerry Judy
to have that type of night that he just had
because that will throw a monkey wrench in the whole
equation and we do not need that. But JPG is
more than capable of it. And that's why this has
to be one of the ones for us man big time.
(06:16):
This is one of those games within the game for sure.
Five Star Friday Match from number three, the.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Big pay back bound up signed for some payback.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Man.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
You know why because I remember I remember just two
weeks ago, a little of two weeks ago Thursday Night
foot but they were talking about how Jack Conckland.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Oh man, we don't even heard about TJ wat today.
TJ is quiet.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
Have you seen the game at Miles Gurtts having Where
is TJ TJ TJ TJ.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Nick Herby made to play TJ TJ TJ. Right, everybody's on.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
That the big pay back. Well, Jack Conklin, TJ said
he got his. He left the snow tires at home
that night. You ain't gotta have no snow tires this week, baby,
all right. I had to talk to the weatherman. Weatherman said,
ain't no doing this forecast. Play TJ. Bring out the
ones you play here. You know the ones that you
playing with the get off. You know you had them
out there last week, And says Snatty, you can just
(07:07):
bring the ones, all right, that's the matchup though, Jack
Conklin versus TJ.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Why we gotta have it?
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Man?
Speaker 5 (07:13):
We understand what Jamie says as a passer. We understand
what they can do in terms of some of their
eligible receivers. Right, they have really good players, even at
the tight ends spot and Joke good player.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
But the mismatch has to be what we do in
the trenches.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
You've heard me say it multiple times this season. You're
gonna continue to hear me say it. We play our
best when we win in the trenches. Versus Cincinnati, we
were able to what protect Russ and still create pressure
on Burrow to the point where we had multiple sacks,
multiple hits and then we even had the big strip
sack to get up out of there. That has to
(07:49):
be the case this week. But it only starts. It
only happens if TJ is whooping Jack Conklin's tail from
start to finish. And I think he's gonna be a
little bit motivated because I know you heard them comments
from a Miles Garrett on the front end of the game,
beginning of the game, obviously during the game, and the
most definitely after the game. So uh yeah, yeah, I
(08:10):
think you're ready for this one.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Plenty of bulletin board material there to work with.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
You better believe that five star Friday matchup Numero quatro.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Man, this is the beauty when you play a team
twice in two and a half weeks, especially if it
doesn't go in your favorite You got a lot of rematches,
all right, you got a lot of Can I spend
the block on that one real quick? You punched me
on my eye last time I seen you. Can I
get run this back? I got to get my lick
back real quick. Everybody knows abou getting get licked back.
Everybody knows how that feels. Where this in the family,
(08:44):
with your siblings, with a cousin, with your best friend,
with dude on your tea, with the little girl of
your class, Like, everybody knows how that Oh you got me.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
Oh, I get a chance to get you back on. Huh.
We ain't really like our run situation looked last time. Man.
Speaker 5 (08:57):
We didn't like how we looked as a whole from
just in the trench's physicality standpoint.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Man, we thought they're guys.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
Dalvin Tomlinson, you heard that name right, Shelby Harris, you
heard her name right, Isaia Maguire, you heard that name right.
We thought that they made a little bit too many
plays snow or not last time we played them. Agreed,
We felt that we weren't leaning on them at the
end of the plays and pushing the pals and regulating it.
In that sense, we were being the ones getting regulated.
(09:25):
We don't like that. That's not how we operate. So
those big three, I gotta have you again versus my
big three, And I'm talking Isaac say my lam, I'm
talking about West Virginia University's finest mister almost Heaven, Zach
Frasier careers in Mason McCormick, my one double la brother.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Yeah, we gotta win in the trenches. Though. We can't
run the ball.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
If they don't win this matchup, we can't take the
shots we want to take down Phil if they don't
keep those guys at bay. But that's the matchup, man.
And they're big physical guys. But guess what those big
three that we got off big physical as well. Oh
and I don't know if you know this, but Zach Fraser,
he also was a wrestling in high school.
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Kicked a real booty.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
He wrestled in high school.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
It was crazy, man, that would make it.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
I mean, I guess I can kind of see it
now you point that out.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
I mean, two losses good.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
I think two losses in four years, multiple championship is
pretty good.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
They said the one loss, it was like both losses
he just lost. It was a d Q for one
of them.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Rooki years yea okay, Oh, like he didn't get.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
The rules or something. It was kind of like how
John Jones has one loss on his record.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
You're like, who John Jones? Looseter is like himself because
he almost murdered a guy in the ring. It was
like that I heard.
Speaker 4 (10:38):
I heard I already beat that guy later on in
the state playoffs. You know how, even though I have
no idea what you're talking about, I heard he beat
that same guy later on. You knows it really.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Absolute dog, absolute dog. So shout out to Zach Fraser.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
Five Stuff Food.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Day matchup number five.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
This is the one that matters the absolute most every
game that we've played against them that we have felt
good about it. This guy has been pretty quiet on
the handful of games where the outcome has not reflected
what we felt it should.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
This guy's unfortunately been able to make a little noise. Okay,
I think I see where this is going.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Sometimes he makes noise with his play. I definitely see
where this is going.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Sometimes he's made noise with his words, context cluse, and
we've even seen.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Him make noise using uh other people's helmets. Okay, ladies
and gins, boys and girls, I'm talking about Miles Geart.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Okay, last time we played Miles, Miles played pretty well.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
I know we try to minimize it and say, whoa
he do anything in the second half. When you get
three sacks in the first half, it really doesn't matter
what you do in the second half, Okay, I'm just
telling you as a player, that's just how we look
at it. So you got three sacks, man, all right,
six sect in the game would have been even greater.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Sure, but you've got three secs.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
In a game in a force one I was gonna say,
don't forget about that, A pretty big one to.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
That, all right.
Speaker 5 (12:12):
So with that being the case, dan More, you know
I've been dan More Club president for the past couple
of years now, man, Yeah, shout out the Wolf.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Yes, Wolf is definitely part of it.
Speaker 5 (12:25):
Yes, but we're in the dan Club fan club, dan
More fan Club, all right, club thing, all right, good,
I'm a part of the club, man T shirt.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
I'm a board member, all right, I got I got
a rank. All right. If I'm not the problem vice president,
I'm up there at the top treasure. We need you.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
This is your chance to continue to run up that bag, okay,
because man, were talking about that salary cap right, Well, hey,
now it's your turn to put pressure on the salary caps.
You'll turn to get your check, all right, because you've
put together a heck of a career thus far, regardless
of what people might say or lack of appreciation they
might use towards you.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
I know what you mean.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
I know exactly your impact on this running and past offense.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
I don't take you for granted.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
So god there and continue to show why you deserve
to get that check. Man, go out there and show
why you deserve to be somebody starting left tackle for
a long time.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
Regrets if it's here or elsewhere.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
Man, But the only one you can do that is
to continue to show up versus these type of guys.
You faced Miles Garrett countless times being in the division.
We can only count a handful of times where it's been.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
Louds they'll say he's done pretty well.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
So let's let's make sure that we give Dan his flowers,
because we know Miles Garrett is a reigning Defensive Player
of the Year award winner like current like current last
name on the troupe. Yeah, like just happened, kind of
like Jesus birthday, jess birthday coming up a couple weeks.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
He just got that trophe like Thankskeevn's names on the
trophy right now.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Yeah, like he just got like it's still his yeah yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
Okay, So for Damn Moore, you face this on countless times,
and you've done your job and you held your own
on numerous occasions.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Let's get back to that.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Blame it on the snow seat comfort if you need to,
but let's get back to what we know works. You know,
what you do and you know exactly how to do
it versus this guy. So let's go out there and
show it on on Sunday night or excuse me, Sunday afternoon.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
Had a feeling that that was going to pop up
on this list somewhere, Professor, don't have to have that
sounder right, Come on man for Monday along with Johnny
Drama Professor motes one more time for those who just
want to double check their notes or maybe joined us late.
The five matchups that will determine the outcome of Steelers
(14:36):
Brown Sunday, one o'clock at after sure state, Well.
Speaker 5 (14:38):
We got to start with the crab leg man, mister
Jamis Winston, and of course our secondary he is gonna
put the ball in harm's way, take advantage of it,
catch the ones he throws to you. Jerry Judy, man
shout out to that revenge game. But unfortunately you ain't
got a revenge with us. We got revenge with you now,
So Jerry Judy, what up?
Speaker 3 (14:56):
JPJ. I need it in my life.
Speaker 5 (14:58):
Come on, baby, go out there and show them with working
with I know you got it, so let's get it.
I don't know who your daddy is. I know he
ain't gonna let you get done. You can't not never sleeping, Nah,
your daddy ain't going for it. All right, all right,
But then after that man Jack Conklin, wooh, you felt
good about what you did on Thursday and in the
little snow hunh, you felt really good about yourself.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Hum. Miles, Gary probably had you over there really beating
on your chest. Hunh. Well great, because now you gotta
pissed off TJ. Watt. Congratulations, you get to take on TJ. Watt.
Huh uh huh. I can't wait.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
Then after that, man the Big Three to enter your
d line, Dalvin Tomlinson, Shelby Harris, Isaiah McGuire versus our
big boy trio, Isaac say you might lose Zach Fraser,
Mason McCormick.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
What was Fraser's wrestling record again in high school?
Speaker 4 (15:40):
Do you remember? One hundred and fifty million and two? There
it is, all right?
Speaker 5 (15:44):
And then last, but certainly not least, mister Miles Garrett,
the raining Defense Player of the Year versus Damn More.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
It's a five star matchup.
Speaker 4 (15:58):
Because we're in there.
Speaker 3 (16:05):
I don't want to see anything.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Brands putting a fake cran on Miles Garrett head again.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
All right.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
First of all, you don't even have a logo on
your helmet, so how could you wear a crown? Second
of all, that's Lebron James's thing, if anything. All right,
and he left you guys twice, so just just settle down.
One guy who would never leave us, Brian middle name Baco.
We didn't figure out what that middle name is, so
you can really be part of the family. Bacco joins
(16:32):
us on the other side with all the latest from practice.
Who's in, who's out? How's he feeling about certain status
of status? Updates of current Steelers down there. We'll get
to that. We'll also get his prediction as well to
keep yours rolling in. We'll read them before we get
out of here. At Westleyeler at the Body fifty two
duh by the Steelers Blitz on the Steelers Audio Network.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
This is the Steelers Blitz with Wesley Euler and Arthur
Motes on your twenty four to seven Home of the
Black and Gold sn R.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Rolling along here on.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
A Fixen's Friday as we get you ready for game day.
Of course, part of our starting lineup on a Fixen's Friday.
It's Shaler's finest our buddy, Brian Baco covers the Steelers
for the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. He joins us with all
the latest as always, cousin, thank you for taking the time.
Let's get right into it. Alex Heismith gon play on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Yeah, whoa, I like the company.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
Yes, he didn't even think about no hesitation. That's what
I need to hear, baby.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Short and sweet. Did he say as much?
Speaker 1 (18:03):
I don't think he talked today, but I mean he's yeah,
he's been available throughout the week, obviously being listed full yesterday.
I'm pretty confident in that one. But I did talk
to Calvin Austin and he said he is feeling good
and inside baseball, if the player is even talking to
the media during practice week, that generally means they are
out of concussion protocol. So everything pointing up for number nineteen,
(18:29):
I like it.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I like it all right.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
So with that being the case, knowing that both of
those guys are potentially back in the fold, where do
we anticipating usage wise? Man, with Heigh Smooth coming back,
her Big still in the full, we still anticipating seeing
that rotation going on out there.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
I think so, you know, could this be a spot
where Mike Tomlin even gets a little creative para astin
cooks up some of those wrinkles with three outside linebackers
on the field, I would say maybe. But also that
could be a club they save in their bag for
Ravens round two, because they've done that in the past
against Lamar. So I understand wanting to be thoughtfully non rhythmic,
(19:10):
but yeah, I mean, they're about to have that rotation
in as good as shape as it's been all season
because they really haven't had the full compliment since Preston
Smith got here. So that's why Mike Tomlin was really uh,
you know, showing that unbright oled excitement for it on Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Baco.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
I know someone who is excited to get back out
there on Sunday again, it's got to be Joey Porter Junior,
and it is. You know, it's not necessarily Jamar Chase
that he's lining up against, but still a really capable,
really good wide receiver and Jerry Judy one who certainly
made some plays when these teams met just a couple
of weeks ago. What sense, what sense of you gotten
(19:48):
from young JP J on where he's at this week
and just you know the opportunity for him to uh to,
you know, to to go out there and have a
strong performance.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Yeah, and you may have seen the Jerry He made
some plays on Monday nights for goodness gracious. He's got
five straight games with at least five catches or in
seventy plus yards, and career game against his old team,
the Broncos on Monday night. So he's rolling right now.
I don't know if the Steelers are gonna have Joey
shadow him or if he'll play sides because Cedric Tillman
(20:21):
for the Browns is another bigger guy. I mean, he's
not T Higgins, but he's T Higgins like in his
body type and everything. So I'll be curious to see
how they deploy Joey. But I do get the sense
from him that he's a quiet confidence this week, like
not really seeing a boisterous Joey Porter Junior. I think
(20:43):
he's he's probably not happy the way that game went
and then obviously all the spotlight that comes with it.
So yeah, I mean, I think he's itching to get
back out there, and I think his teammates believe him.
His postgame presser in Cinti Demonte Casey was standing right
next to him and me or somebody else at what
do you do to adjust to all these flags? And
(21:03):
Casey was yelling, was here nothing, We're coming right back down.
I'm straight pressing. So that's what they want to see
from twenty four. They just need him to clean it
up a little bit to do that.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
Now.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
You're absolutely right, and I love the response and support
by CAZy as well.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Ben, Yes, indeed.
Speaker 5 (21:18):
But I'm gonna ask you the serious question, man, because
we's trying to bury the lead.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
How'd you feel about NFL hard Knocks? Man, come home, baby.
Speaker 5 (21:26):
We saw some real life action going on in some
real life games with our black and goal guys.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Man, I loved it most. I never thought i'd see
the day that the Steelers run hard knocks. I would
have loved it when I was growing up watching it
in high school, and I guess probably more so college.
But then even once I started covering the team on
the beat, I remember thinking to myself, that'd be cool,
but it's never gonna happen. What's happening. We're living it.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
We are though it was awesome.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
I've always loved the show. I think they do a
great job. I know some people will poke holes in it,
and it's not as edgy as it once was. That's
probably true, you know, you show how the sausage is
made so many times, and teams are going to start
to pull back on that a little bit. But I
still think it's really enlightening to get all that inside access.
I've never seen, you know, those inside of some of
(22:14):
those Steelers meeting rooms. So I think they did a
cool job with it. And I would assume the microscope
is going to be on the Steelers again in a
large way this week, considering the Ravens are off, the
Bengals are playing a Monday night game against the Simpsons.
I think I don't even know if the Cowboys are
gonna be there, and we've got the Steelers Browns is
(22:34):
one of the best games all week because of the
pettiness between these two. So hopefully we see more of
Mike Tomlin in company on Tuesday Night.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
All right, mister Bacco, Now that we've gotten the ha
has and the hellos and the the t's crossed and
the eyes, the ols.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
All the pleasantries, all all those little surface levels.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
It's time for the main event, how.
Speaker 4 (23:01):
Does a playown Sunday one o'clock Agroscer Stadium, the fourth
of the four straight AFC North games for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Do they get vengeance on the Browns Sunday afternoon?
Speaker 1 (23:17):
I could see this going either way. I could, as
much as the Steelers normally would. If not for some
of the extracurriculars a couple Thursday nights ago, I would
have probably chocked this up as all right, the Browns
won their Super Bowl, this is an exhibition for them.
The Steelers will get their lick back easily at home
(23:38):
this time. But because there was so much feistiness that
came with that loss, it almost feels like the Bronwnds
still have plenty of motivation to come in here and
play Spoiler. That said, Fellas, I just don't think they're
gonna do it. I think the Steelers offense is rolling
too much right now. They're a pick your poisoned unit
(23:59):
with Russ the way he's operating to George Pickens, Pat
Bryar muse, I think we could see a little more
Mike Williams this week. I mean, granted the bar is
pretty low there. One catch would be more Mike Williams
this week, but I think he gets back involved to
some extent. I don't know how much. But then you've
got Najie Harrison and a fired up Jalen Warren in
(24:20):
the running game too. I don't think the Browns are
gonna have enough answers defensively. They're leaking oil on the
back end at safety, particularly free safety. So I think
the Steelers put up thirty again. Twenty two. Steelers win
it at Agricure Stadium.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
I like that. You have me nerves. I'm not gonna lie.
You had me in the first half. Yeah, I was going.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
I thought so too.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
I was like, he's doing it again.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
I come on, man, the Steelers for the first time
since good Lord, before we were born, back.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Eighty eight, he shotting the money from eighty eight.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
Shout out to eighty eight man. It's a great year, man,
thought the most born to an eighty man. I shout
all my eighty eight babies out there, if y'all know,
y'all know, man.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
And this also would be three wins in a row
for Cleveland, which they haven't done since eighty nine.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Oh yeah, we'll need that.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
The history of it's pretty interesting. As well.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
Certainly is one that has been slanted in the Black
and Gold's favor, and hopefully that continues Sunday afternoon, mister Baco,
make sure you're checking out all of Brian's work in
the Post Gazette. Thank you for the time as always,
and we'll see you on Sunday.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
My pleasure, as always.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
My pleasure is at the chick on the end of
Chick fil A is not open on Sundays.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
We should go to chick fil A today.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
You think they got a Chick fil A and shaler.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
You need to fore got chick fil over here. And
if nine they got in shady sight.
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Now that you mentioned it, Chickilance for fire would totally
kill something.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
It's always time for Chick fil A. Don't play. Chick
fil A is always on the menu, Bro, it's chick
fil A.
Speaker 5 (25:50):
They got something you want, healthy, you want, you want,
you want the quick nuggets, like what you want?
Speaker 3 (25:56):
They got all whatever you looking for. They got anything
you're looking for.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
Man, love chick greatest weakness in life, Like I just
found the answer. You know, when you sit down for
job interviews, and I haven't had one of those in forever,
but you know, when you sit down for job interviews.
Speaker 6 (26:07):
Next.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
That did kind of sound ego testicals, didn't it. I've
met as we've been doing this for a while. I'm
really happy. Talk to my agent. Show me the money,
Jerry Maguire.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
I'm just glad I know you. I'm glad they let
me here.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
You know, any job interviews they like to ask you, like,
what's your greatest strength, what's your greatest weakness. The next
time I get asked what's my greatest weakness, I'm just
gonna say fast food.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
That's my greatest weakness. Fast food.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
It all sounds delicious, Chick fil A, Taco, bell canes
of the drive past, these places out of here to
get home.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
You need your food to survive.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Though, anywhere with a drive through window is my kryptonite.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Here's about his health. That's all positive.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
On the other yeah, clearly on the other side although,
but but I do though, because it's the first step
to fixing a problem that you have is admitting you
have a problem, right, But if you're.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Perceiving it as a problem and it's not could be
doing damage.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
Well No, it once was when I weighed like one
hundred and ninety pounds. Now I'm at a much healthier
like one sixty one fifty eight.
Speaker 5 (27:18):
Hey is life man, Drink water not too much. That's
eating food not too much. No, just get your rest,
but not too much. It's all It's all about a balance, right.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Just eat well like ninety percent of the time and
the other ten percent of the time fast food.

I want that meg.
Speaker 4 (34:04):
Thirty eight seventeen. Though, let's see here as we continue,
Jeff tweets and says, hand out those fixons. The Steelers
are going to get revenge Wilson in the offense, get
(34:25):
touchdowns instead of field goals, and the defense is much
better this time around. Steelers twenty seven, Brownies thirteen less
go twenty seven thirteen feels like guess popular score as
well to Steeler Nation nine twenty says I'm turned up

that payback? Jamis two interceptions, JPJ has a pick six.

twenty seven over the elves.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
Who' tweetd that you that?
Speaker 4 (35:17):
Mike Jones, who angry Bike Lane says, I'm sticking on brand.
I think everyone is taking this reckoning thing for granted.
I'm worried the defense will be flat. Russ will put
up a valiant effort, but will settle for too many
field goals. Bad guys twenty eight, Good guys sixteen on brand.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
I like keep the same energy.
Speaker 1 (35:37):

of dish, best served cold, big bad wolf. That's Rod
Dalla changes his name upon us all the time. Steelers
win six feet three. Rod share a line, maybe a
d D tweets us and says, good afternoon, and my
best Tomlin voice. I think we come out mad after

a few weeks ago. Get them and smack them in
the mouth the first possession and off from there.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Good guys.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
Twenty eight team named after a color twenty all right,
last refresh, here we go, speak now or hold your piece.
Cuban dan Dale tweets, I would feel better if Baco
had gone against the boys, but I still feel good.
Twenty seven to nineteen. Close at the halftime, but in
the end, not so much. Steelers defense to takeaways. Linda
(36:45):
tweets sweet revenge Steelers win twenty eight to seven. Bill
says I'm making deliveries in Ohio. I'm hoping the Steelers
deliver that win thirty two to twelve. Matt tweets and says,
what's up? Fellas a little worried about this game, Uh,
until I got in my car and Renegade started playing.
It's a signed Steelers thirty three Browns twenty four. Richie
(37:07):
tweets and says, Steelers forty eight Browns seventeen seven sacks
coming in hot. Also, how about my Red Raiders?
Speaker 3 (37:14):
All right?
Speaker 4 (37:15):
That happened with our old head football coach doesn't count.
No new era, all right, new coach.
Speaker 5 (37:19):
New stop bringing up all the stuff, man, coach Man
go yeah yeah, turned.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
On Frank with the last word of the day. Steelers
thirty three, Cleveland nineteen. Coach t Stars on Hard Knocks Again.
I think we all agree on that as a prediction.
But Mozi, how do you think it plays me Sunday?
Speaker 5 (37:38):
You know they going to be the focus they are. Listen,
the Browns are going to be the focus this week
and the Browns are playing who this week? Man?
Speaker 3 (37:44):
The Steelers come on, baby, listen.
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Whether it goes well over, whether it's a blowlout, we
are going to be. Whether it's a heartbreaking loss, it's gonna.
Speaker 3 (37:51):
Be the Steelers. Yes, absolutely, man. But how's the score prediction? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (37:55):
But for me, Man, I got it as a competitive game,
Like I said, the Browns with Jamis win said, they
can score.
Speaker 3 (38:01):
They are very competitive and they believe.
Speaker 5 (38:03):
At the same time, they still do some of the
things that put them in the position to have a
record that reflects an inconsistent team and that is not
protecting the football, specifically at the quarterback position. So I
have a twenty seven to twenty still is getting a
job done. I'd like us to ultimately be up about tennish,
maybe even fourteen is late in the game. And this
(38:23):
is the you know, the the Joe Burrow score, the touchdown,
but you got to get the on side kick scenario
song and dance, and we'll come here on Monday and
play the whole.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
Did we win by enough? Was it close enough? Are
we for real? Real contenders? Are we just frost?
Speaker 5 (38:37):
And we'll do that whole song and dance, but it'll
be on a victory Monday, So make sure Johnny's ready.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
I concur you know you and I feel like our
score predictions have been pretty close all year. We haven't
had one exactly the same, and the words of you,
we're Simpatiko, my friend, We're not far off. I'm gonna
go twenty eight twenty one Steelers not the embarrassing multiple
score victory revenge. Maybe Steeler Nation is thirsty four, but
(39:02):
one that also feels pretty comfortable despite being just a
touchdown victory. Maybe Cleveland scores late to you know, in
garbage time to feel better and it's never really in
doubt something like that. Twenty eight to twenty one. I
did one last refresh here, okay, because I am a
man of the people and DJ the sparky gets in
at the buzzer. Let's go big win, big win, thirty
(39:23):
four to twelve for the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (39:29):
All right, had a buzzer, he just went off. You
beat the buzzer for us. You said he got a buzzer.
You are the professor.
