It was TOTALLY Eli Rogers, you guys! -

[@jacobmeleciox8707]

@@DKPittsburghSportsSteelers I was trying to find the Ramon foster show where you two talked about that🤣🤣

[@randymccracken2722]

I'm 68 and I made it through the WHOLE episode and glad I did! 😅

[@WhiteSpiderInc]

52 and I’m all about having “some” Swagger as long as you back it up! Let’s go!!!

[@snowman8235]

I listened to the to the end and been a fan for 59 years.

[@dennygc5874]

Before AB and Keisel revolutionized the camp entrance, they had to show up with the lunchbox mentality to earn the right to swag. This team needs to earn their right to swag. The longer they wear the hardhat instead of a tiara, the better. ❤️🔥🍻

[@jacobmeleciox8707]

Well said 🤜🏼🤛🏼

[@ChrisB7102]

@@dennygc5874 Don’t forget Harrison showing up in a fire truck 🤣

[@derrickbowman4746]

I'm 54 and there is nothing wrong with swag....heck, I've got epic and Savage razz. Good morning to you DK and to Steeler Nation

[@davetaylor7945]

I'm 73 and love this show. This is my first season of podcasts. You my friend are number one. Keep on doing what you do

[@252MIC]

Pray for me DK Houston we got hit hard with hurricane no power for three days now but I make sure I can charge my phone to listen to daily shots if anyone wants to help me thru this time I would appreciate it

[@jacobmeleciox8707]

You need help?? What do you need

[@terrywbreedlove]

You will be alright

[@petegdula4749]

Hey Dejan, you don't have to be young to have swag! I got as much as possible at 67 years young! My Mom has even more!!!

[@tyukich67]

Goood Wednesday morning DK!!! Can't talk about 70s swagger and not mention the great Frenchy Fuqua..all time swagger great!!! 57 yrs young and enjoyed this entire episode.

[@MarvyG23]

The 2010’s Steeles had Aura, these steelers as a whole don’t strike fear to opponents

[@Mrsonnywentz]

Interesting take I liked the pod today !

[@jerryyeager1307]

Almost got eliminated here DK. I am looking forward to all that swagger coming soon in Latrobe and pre season. T.J. Watt on and off the field. I can feel that roar, need I say more? Thank you DK Great show !

[@zachbalobeck2463]

Hey DK, I love the swagger episode! You look across sports at successful teams, and there is always a guy or two on those teams who wasn’t afraid to let the other team know what’s coming. The single best example I ever saw was JP Sr. Would love to see Jr and the Brodfather take the throne as resident s*** talkers!

[@stuffcoachessay294]

Hey DK, I’m 51 and a HS football coach in VA. I listened to the end..lol. But I agree. There is this narrative that young and full of swag is disrespectful… I’m a bit old school so I get it. But now hearing it I agree. That confidence helps remove doubt. Great work as always.

[@WillSpittTBC.HerbDUC]

Ain't nothin' wrong with Swagger, Dawg!!!! 54 years young here.

[@raymartinez5339]

Eli Rodgers I think

[@JamesSmith-wh1pz]

Swag is self perception! Tell P. Queen bring a Raven hangin on a stick to camp…that’ll be priceless!!❤😂

[@OxyOrangutan724]

Young Zac pulling up in a combine tractor would be crazy

[@jsmitt3700]

I'm still listening 😂😂.. This team needs a Joey Porter of the 2000's.. wait we have Joey Porter

[@GRodPericles]

Swagger is something that’s earned! No one has earned ANYTHING on this team, for THIS team. Start winning and I bet we’ll see all the swagger we can handle

[@jacobmeleciox8707]

Swag doesn't win games but i understand what you're saying.

[@plaubelmakina8916]

JPJ’s got it. That’s EZ to see.

[@user-oy7ec1np8v]

Sutton's incident had another side to it you don't have to like it because no one cares what we think about another person's business. It is what it is and it is what it isn't. . .

[@samuellepley4217]

The “swagger” will be the Team! The focus! The unity! The determination! The “Grit” will be the swagger!

[@Slim1982]

Hey DK! I believe at one time, the Steelers would sometimes have scrimmages against another NFL team like The Washington Commanders in training camp. Do you think that would help this team get better or just be a distraction?

[@BrentHaines-bb1sb]

Happy Anniversary!!

[@ricklove8588]

DK buddy I'm 54 years old and completely understand swagger lol. It was as relevant in the 80s when I played HS ball. We had a reputation of hitting. Decleating was a thing and teams came in nervous. Absolutely a edge going in

[@paulsenzig9097]

Dk welcome to Wisconsin. Steelers fan since 1975

[@Monica_aka_Kansas]

You want to talk about swagger and success, you can't have a better example of that than the Legion of Boom.

[@brucehamilton7702]

Hey DK! Good morning!! Ok, I’m 65 and did listen and I agree, I’ll be surprised if anyone goes overboard with their arrival. I think they are going to be all business. Doesn’t mean there won’t be players who come in with that chip on the shoulder. As long as they back it up, I’m good with it.

[@TrevenGilley]

You’re thinking about Eli Roger’s DK but he did eventually make it on the roster after injuries

[@ChrisB7102]

4:30 wake up at 53 and still listening 🤣

[@williammcpherson9953]

You can just do a grovey show for tomorrow😅

[@frankmancuso9908]

Terry Bradshaw once said in an interview that he remembers seeing fear in the defense player's eyes when the Steelers wouls line up to run a play.

[@cat_boi1753]

DK, DK, DK??? You knew the reaction you would get😅. I'm level 55(we don't age we level up now) a guitar player song writer and my swag is still alive just at the appropriate time😅😅😅usually after I get stoopid😅with my favorite ax....😅😊😂

[@user-cc3rk1fb9d]

Social media doesn’t intimidate. Lining up and consistently beating your opponent intimidates.

[@TheZoodonym]

Queen will be embracing the culture and bringing the swagger back. He is going to be the Bad Guy when playing Baltimore. Russ will have some because we are playing Denver in Mile High. The whole offense will push the line forward for Arthur Smith game one against Atlanta in front of our fans. I think our new punter might even have a leg and Patterson in returning punts. Minkah, TJ, Cam are back from an injury season... I think we have lots of swagger coming!!

[@mathfish6645]

Agreed. JPJ can do it. Prob is the captains of this team have to make it acceptable. TJ, Cam , Minkah need to invite that to the team and embrace it.

[@duprea]

Dude? 67 and climbing. Taking my swag with me bruh. In fact? I have instructions that it be buried with me. Don’t mistake “drama” for swagger.

[@gregiskat8354]

Eli Rogers ?

[@steelerspittsburgh875]

What did he drive or do?

[@daveperfetti2802]

I think that defense has plenty of swagger when they hit the field. Hope Wilson, Pickens, our line and the RBs can bring that to the offense under Smith

[@terrywbreedlove]

I am super hopeful and interested to see how Cory Trice looks in a couple weeks. His entire NFL career rides on this year for the kid. Want to see him have a real opportunity to prove himself with a little Swagger.

[@MrHall-zw5xo]

DK honestly I don’t care GP14 could pull up in an UFO , long as we win some playoff games that’s the only thing that matters lol.

[@michaelperrysr8768]

I think you’re talking about Eli Rogers. 😂

[@christopherkpratt]

Win first. Swag later. These personalities, the personalities we enjoy, are borne from success. Plenty of perennial losers have had players with "Swag" and I don't remember once envying that team for that player.

[@chesterpinkney107]

He's talking about Eli Rogers

[@kennethjones5921]

The mistake of Kenny's preseason was evaluating with a very small sample size.

[@kennethjones5921]

Why do I feel Russell will learn the old tradition and do it?🤔

[@Yendorb1]

Did you forget about GP and Najee? GP has that fire and mentality, we just had to shape it properly.. Najee is a big talker but I think he’s been humbled by the lack of production on offense. You can’t talk when you suck(the offense, not Najee)

[@alterego5550]

Somewhere down the line there will be one player this yr lol. But this is the hardest schedule I've ever seen so there isn't anytime for the games. Which maybe a good thing.

[@MrTheprototype06]

Was it Eli Rodgers that got cut?

[@frisky571]

Gosh, what time you get up, dude?

[@ianbenjiman]

I'd much prefer to have a quiet team that performs.

[@Hanover_Fist]

I'll Bet AB could use the money he spent on that Rolls Royce.

[@willvalentine4906]

Dk you were pretty loud about Cam Sutton coming back to Pittsburgh if i recall correctly. The league will give out the maximum punishment with little to no evidence just to save face due to the ray rice debacle. Stop clutching your pearls. You have done a complete 180 on Cam Sutton.

[@James-lb9bt]

You can't swagger till you learn how to walk!!!

[@steelking22]

Bobby Brister and Eric Green had swagger and they usually sucked. Teams swagger because they win, they rarely win because they swagger. Johnny U - a Yinzer from birth - said it best, "Talk is cheap, I talk on the scoreboard."

[@SquatchWatcher]

'Ol Bubby 😂

[@plaubelmakina8916]

Tell that to Joe Namath.

[@steelking22]

@@plaubelmakina8916Joe Willie is also a Yinzer from birth, he wore #19 at Beaver Falls because Johnny U was his idol. At SB III, he was responding to insults when he said what he said.

[@jake368]

Get the Uncs outta here this the kids table episode Also give Broderick a few years he’s got some swagger to him. All the Georgia boys really

[@lifelongfan07]

Just as long as they don’t have a dud of a first game. SEE the 49ers. This team has to “earn” the right to have “swag” It’s like the guy who celebrates a TD but lose the game. Why not , “Act, like you’ve done this before!”?

[@blazeXXL2]

Pickens is probably the only guy I could see, but perhaps not yet…maybe JPJ? But again, maybe not yet…

[@michaelwalker3074]

Eli Rogers...

[@elbob17]

I love how this video was prefaced right out of the gate. As a 45 year old, I don't care one bit about "swag." That stuff seems so silly and unnecessary to me. This is why none of today's players can do a damned thing without having to do The Worm back to the huddle.

[@williammcpherson9953]

Do. Your show is far out. Lol

[@duprea]

Harrison? He scared people. Joe? Yup. Him too. But not because they came in in a helicopter.

[@jordangarcia5604]

christian kuntz i can see doing something dumb 😂

[@justwatching8357]

You’re lame if you think Eli Rogers was mediocre

[@99baji99]

Swagger is one thing, peacocking is something else. It's the difference between confidence and arrogance, but these guys all idolize phony gangster rappers so it is what it is.

[@rafusdavis5548]

You failed to mention the Rooney involvement in bringing Cam back. I’m sure he cares less about what you don’t like.
