Steel Here Episode 60 - A Field Day

[@brysonbetts7733]

Nothing better than a Steelers win, followed by a steel here episode the next day

[@kevinadams2686]

Hell yeah. Nothing I love more than winning and then getting to hop on the mic and shoot the shit about it.

[@TylerHooser-h2v]

HOW ABOUT FRAIZER!!!!!! You gotta love seeing this play we havent seen since Pouncey. You even heard Romo talking up 54!

[@willr4880]

Might have to get a Frazier jersey

[@aliciaandgregrunnels5876]

Yeah, thats an excellent point!! It’s easy to get lost in the sauce with Fields and the defense.

THE AMOUNT OF LOVE I HAVE FOR THIS PODCAST IS INSANE

[@kevinadams2686]

You been a rider since day 1. I’ve paid attention and appreciate it.

[@keychain4206]

As a bears fan, I was a huge fields supporter and I can say that fields recent success is due to being on a team that is professional and a professional coaching staff. An OC that can develop a young QB. The Bears had a lot of problems his first 3 years. Change of scenery is what he needed. I wish the best for Fields and hope he brings good fortune to the team!

[@kevinadams2686]

He shows such flashes of greatness it’s hard to not believe he can be a freak if cultivated.

[@Smiley869]

Hey guys. I really love your show and intensity. So fun and cathartic. Started to watch last year. Steelers nation is around the world and huge in Québec Can. I live in Montréal and I've been a Steelers since end of 70s. We had the games then too. Now we have the US and french speaking networks .. and DAZN to follow the/my team. Im totally crazy as I follow them all year long via Pittsburgh post gazette and the Fan radio station. You guys are great. Fantastic work and passion. Merci beaucoup. Philippe.

[@huntera2577]

Fields is the future for sure. MOF and intermediate passing was a struggle for him in Chicago. He looked amazing at it against Chargers. The development is for real now.

[@Beermalls]

Yeah clock draining drives! Then a 10 Point lead late in the 4th! Hot on the field! “ Finish Him” a couple solid runs by Najee and Patterson it was over for Em!

[@leveraged6694]

If Fields can continue to play like that we are going to be unstoppable.

[@kevinadams2686]

Absolutely we are.

[@scottpeskowitz]

That was an all around great team win. I think Fields remains the starter unless he gets hurt. Wilson at the end of the season is not a bad thing

[@Ghost-304]

Wilson can’t come in 2nd half of season when schedule is brutal without playing before then . Ravens , Browns, Bengals twice also Eagles and Chiefs in that 2nd half of season. Wilson has to get caught up to speed before then 100% . Wilson should be playing by Raiders , Jets, giants or Washington game . Before that brutal schedule

[@kevinadams2686]

Yep. All 3 phases. Complete team win.

[@brianacierno7345]

Great Podcast! been listening from the beginning

[@kevinadams2686]

Thanks Brian. Really appreciate that!

[@battistimo]

Very satisfying win, but the concern is the injuries to key players are starting to pile up. Chargers didn’t have Bosa, that’s their Watt, can’t overlook that. Yes, a good D, but they were missing a key piece.

[@kevinadams2686]

Agreed. But you can only play who is out there. Injuries worry me but gotta just keep riding. Everybody has them.

[@yourdumbeyes]

It wasn’t just Bosa. The Chargers lost LT Rashawn Slater near the end of the first half and the second he wasn’t there in the second half, Herbert got destroyed and had to come out of the game. So they had no LT, no QB; and then eventually lost RT Joe Alt. It doesn’t mean the Steelers don’t have a great defense but do you honestly think Pittsburgh wins if the same Chargers team from the first half is there the second half? Be honest

[@MrNinjaburial47]

Great ep. Getting hype!!

[@kevinadams2686]

Thank you! I couldn’t be more hype.

[@heymd86]

Let's go boys! Steeler Nation in 🇨🇦

[@kevinadams2686]

We’re world wide!

[@NeweraGolf]

Mike tomlin is one of the only coaches ever to have a winning record w back up QBs and the other Coaches on the list have such a small sample size it’s hard to even compare but he’s a defensive coach, sure, but he instill confidence and breaks downs film well those 2 things I think are huge

[@steelersgrl2772]

What in the actual hell is happening?! Are we back?! I live in Cincinnati and I have been taking a beating from these fans behind enemy lines. I now go to sleep to the Bungles fans cries again and it’s FABULOUS! 💪🏼🖤💛🏈 Great show fellas!

[@kevinadams2686]

Talk your shit!!! We back!

[@patrickhiretennis]

Great Team Win. Love the show. I'll comment on the WR talk and doubt. Is Aiyuk a great player? Yes, he is solid. But I don't think with the Steelers' offense and their style, he would come in and be a game changer. We are going to grind and break down defenses in the 4th quarter with the finisher #84 Patterson. He has fresh legs at the end of the game and the MAN runs hard. Also, don't sleep on Warren. He will be just fine. The team is built for playoff football.

[@kevinadams2686]

You’re damn right Patrick! And yeah I want another elite WR but idk how much value they’d have. We def need one more elite option though.

[@LittleBitofCoin]

Herbert played up until midway thru 3rd quarter I think. They only got that TD due to a rare blown coverage by jpj. So think we still would've won with Herbert in the whole game. Roman wilson hopefully will make his debut this week. Another speedy wr for us

[@Hashim00]

Kerp it up guys, great shows!

[@kevinadams2686]

Thank you! Means a lot to us!

[@NoCoastGolf]

Victory Monday! Let's keep this rolling. Defense wins championships

[@kevinadams2686]

Bully ball is back.

[@codysanders926]

Last thing, fact of the matter is our style of football is and always has been sustainable as long as we can move the ball. Difference between this year and post Ben era, we are punting like 3 times a game now. We don’t force our D to play 40+ minutes a game we can absolutely keep this style of football all up.

[@kevinadams2686]

That’s just it. Keep getting first downs, let the defense get wind; they can beat anybody that way.

Whoever it is Fields or Russ comes in during that brutal 2nd half of season then if they lose the talk will be well should’ve played the other QB that’s how it’s going to be put blame on other. It’s actually great Russ is keeping legs fresh for 2nd half of season and body not beat up etc .

[@Ghost-304]

It’s great that Fields didn’t get in his head when throwing a pick . Fields has to believe in his self and continue to play smart ball .

Dont forget what Jerry said last week

[@Ghost-304]

I’ll say it again Steelers win when they run the ball to work the clock and keep defense fresh instead of 3 & outs under 2 min keeping defense constantly on field. Also CA3 will have big year this year if given the opportunity with his speed CA3, Pickens , Muth , they can make plays .

[@crowe1974]

Yes, Fields has been looking better with each game. I want to see Rus less and less. If Fields keep it up, I'd be down with trading him, too.

I give fields two more, if he’s playing this well, you can look at moving on.

[@Ghost-304]

Defense has to stay healthy this year 1000% . The defense is heart of ths team and this team needs everyone healthy

[@BrandonBaker-r7f]

What are y’all’s thoughts on Warren? I think his hamstring is worse than what was led on. Luckily they haven’t needed him as much the first 3 weeks, but we’re gonna need him the back half of the season. Hopefully if they continue to play winning football they can let him heal up. I just know he adds another dimension to the running game and the offense as a whole. Credit to Patterson for coming in and making plays though.

[@kevinadams2686]

I think they’re slowly easing him back in because of the hammy. Which I’m fine with. Patterson has been good too.

[@BrandonBaker-r7f]

@@kevinadams2686 Now there’s news of Najee in a sling, hopefully that’s minor, but gonna need Patterson to continue to play well.

[@DougShauger-ov8pj]

He has to pass the ball like today !14 yards rushing in first half and Fields kept chains moving with hi arm! We can beat anyone if we get that passing with 4th quarter running we saw yesterday!!!

[@kevinadams2686]

If he figures it out like he did yesterday, he’s a force because his legs are always a threat too.

[@garrettstryzs3872]

Could Herbig win the job?

[@BrandonBaker-r7f]

I was thinking that as well. Highsmith has been the beneficiary of having Watt get the majority of the attention on the other side. I don’t think he’s put up nearly the numbers he should have. Seems like everytime Herbig is in he’s getting after the QB making plays.

[@garrettstryzs3872]

@@BrandonBaker-r7f Agree. I think Highsmith has the advantage in the run game because of size but Herbig has to be on the field on 3rd downs

We broke the chargers lol Herbert, bosa (brod took him out 1st quarter), slater & alt injured too. Brod played much better. I think they should prob keep jones at RT & move Troy to LT next year as brod will have played more rt than Lt in college. Great show again boys. 3-0 baby! 🎉

[@benjermin44]

Fields broke 200 passing yards for the first time, had one TD and one INT. HOW does that equate to him being QB1? Seriously, pump the brakes. Russ was on pace for 29 TD's and 9 INT's last year. Fields is on pace for 11 TD's and 6 INT's. I'm rooting for the kid and would love if he continues to improve in Arthur Smith's offense, but if you're going nuts for one TD and one INT, I can't imagine what you'll say if he throws TWO whole touchdowns in a game. 😉

[@DatBoiMunchie]

What were yall watching Broderick played great sent Bosa to tha bench!

[@BrandonBaker-r7f]

Any concern with injuries to the CB room? I know Trice was ruled out with a Hamstring, and I would’ve really liked to see him build on his game last week. I think Jackson was out for a bit as well, but ended up coming back.

[@kevinadams2686]

Gotta hope they’re not long term injuries and just dings. Remember we get Sutton after the bye week too. Injuries always worry me. But gotta keep plugging and pray they’re minor.

[@BrandonBaker-r7f]

@@kevinadams2686 Completely forgot about Sutton. He would slide more in to that Beanie Bishop role as the nickel corner though right? I don’t remember him playing much outside in Pittsburgh, not sure about Detroit.

And because he did that you saw receivers like Austin and Miller shine he anticipated guys going to be open!!
