Are the Steelers targeting Jakobi Meyers as their WR2?
27/08/2025 Duración: 14minAdam Crowley had a birdie tell him that the Steelers checked in on Jakobi Meyers. Should Steelers fans get their hopes up in finally getting a wide receiver two? Aaron Rodgers talked about his targets for this season. Apparently the Steelers want the Raiders to take on some of Meyers' deal for a potential trade. But why? Do they want to use other money for Cam Heyward or other targets? Adding Meyers makes the two tight ends the Steelers have a cherry on top of two solid wide outs. Poni says that if the Steelers want to be taken seriously in the AFC, they need to make the Raiders an offer they can't refuse.

HOUR 4 - Surprises on 53-man, Derrick Bell, Name Game
26/08/2025 Duración: 37minMore reaction to the Steelers 53-man roster with a few surprises. Skylar Thompson will make the initial roster with Will Howard going on the IR ‘at some point.’ The Steelers cut Beanie Bishop after he was the camp darling of 2024 and finished the season with 4 interceptions. Steelers film junkie Derrick Bell from Pittsburgh Sports Now joined the show. Derrick was a little bit surprised by Skylar Thompson making the roster, but he made it difficult to deny. Derrick thinks Will Howard could have a solid, backup QB career, but is hesitant on saying he’d be a ‘good’ starting QB. Derrick got more into Howard’s game and what he likes/doesn’t like. Derrick gave his take on some of the receivers that are on the open market after cut-down day and if the Steelers will kick the tires on any. He said Jakobi Meyers is the move they should try to make. Derrick believes Steelers fans should be ‘extremely’ excited about Yahya Black after what he did in the preseason.

HOUR 3 - Greg Brown, Waiting on Steelers roster, 53-man is set
26/08/2025 Duración: 32minPirates broadcaster Greg Brown joined the show. We reacted to the DFA of Andrew Heaney after he reached an incentive last night in a brutally bad stretch of pitching. Greg talked about winning in 2026 and why Heaney didn’t fit into that equation. Where does Jack Suwinski fit into future plans? Greg doesn’t dismiss Konnor Griffin starting 2026 with the big-league club, but noted that it is still unlikely. Chris pointed out the wild Pirates stat, that they are objectively great at home but horrible on the road. Greg still doesn’t think the Pirates are really THAT far away from being a good team. 15 minutes after the hour and still no 53-man roster. What could be the cause of the hold-up? We spent a few minutes on Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, who got engaged earlier today. Donny Football Debrief – The Browns have named Dillon Gabriel the backup to Joe Flacco – not Shedeur Sanders. And we finally got the Steelers 53-man roster. None of their 2025 picks were cut.

There is another receiver who may be available that is coming off a pretty good season. Pitt man Pat Bostick joined the show.

HOUR 1 - Colbert's '22 disaster, Calls, HOCKEY TALK!
26/08/2025 Duración: 38minKenny Pickett was traded, again. It’s now his 4th team in as many years. But it’s a worse look for Kevin Colbert, whose final draft looks like an absolute disaster.

HOUR 4 - Whacky ESPN trade, Nick Farabaugh, Can you take me HIGHER?
25/08/2025 Duración: 36minWe poked some fun at Kaboly for whiffing on his punter battle prediction. Who are some WR targets the Steelers should be circling in the coming days? ESPN posted an article that predicted the Steelers would make a trade for Anthony Richardson since he’s set to be the Colts backup QB. Steelers insider Nick Farabaugh from Penn Live dot com joined the show. The Steelers made some more cuts in the last few minutes, so the guys got Nick’s initial reaction as the roster fills out. Nick said he isn’t ‘stunned’ that Cameron Johnston was released, but Corliss Waitman looked good and came at a cheaper price. Nick believes there may have been some holding skill that Chris Boswell liked from Waitman. Nick expects Robert Woods to be among the list of cuts. Nick said names like DeMarvin Leal, Beanie Bishop and Cory Trice are the notables to pay attention to tomorrow.
