Amazing the direction this podcast has gone in. Faith family football forever miss you 7

[@jordanclark4097]

As someone who grew up in a house without an example of a male spiritual leader, hearing from you guys goes a long way for me. It’s great to hear 1) strong Christians having “normal” fun conversations and sampling beers, 2) men talking confidently about their Christian faith and talking about strategies on how to do so with their families, 3) some awesome football talk! Thanks for everything, guys. And go Steelers!

[@StarsandStripesGFC]

Love that you guys are getting the point of view from military members. As a former AF guy, its such a huge problem in the military community making life long friends you can have conversations like that. The not wanting to get close to your brothers and sisters in the service is all to real. Thank you for talking about it.

[@airheart1]

Thanks for putting in the bookmarks so we can get to the parts we're interested in!

[@jra5006]

Agree! If I want to listen to faith/religion there are plenty of other podcasts.

[@ThePapaDeejay]

I love it when you guys talk football, but I really love and need it when you guys talk about your faith! Keep up the amazing work all of you.

Yes Amen! 😅

Big Ben, Big Georege from Cleveland, my 50th year as a Steelers Nation fan, Thanks for all the memories. This beer is for you. It Watts turn to go to the show. STEELERS NATION CLEVELAND

Today was a perfect STEELERS win in all fazes

[@yew2oobwacher887]

I just wanted to say when Jerrad first joined you guys I really didnt care for your guy’s rambling I was here to listen about football but as I’ve continued with you guys I want to say your conversations has helped me realize there are improvements I should be making in my life and with my family your experiences truly are blessings to me thank you and keep up the great work.

[@Matthew-xx2qf]

As a native Yinzer I will say Ben knows how we think as fans. I cursed Ben out so many times but loved him at same time. Tough love we call it 😉

"Matriculating down the field" is a famous quote from Hank Stram

[@richdurbin6146]

If you grew up watching NFL Films then you’ve seen this famous quote. Matriculate generally means to advance is is usually used to refer to graduation.

[@cc_golf]

Great victory yesterday !! Love this podcast !! Love how you tie, faith, family, and football!! Need more of this in the world.

[@MarvyG23]

Great victory yesterday 🤟🏽

[@DWAZ529]

Love the show as a father I find myself looking forward to the weekly fellowship. By the way Hank Stram made the saying “Matriculation” famous in the Chiefs first Superbowl win.

[@framp04]

This Podcast is amazing, i love the Faith, Football and Family concept! Helps keep things in perspective with the conversations...I'm a divorced father of 2 kids and Dad Tired is very interesting to me even thou most of the discussion is about men as a husband also. I agree with Spence not enough is done for our military men and women!

[@anitadoddroe5245]

Great episode, very insightful. Regarding the military life, it's not only the military personnel that have difficulty with establishing strong friendships. The spouse and children also get uprooted and leave whatever friends they did make every 2-3 years. It's a hard life for all involved.

[@johns3331]

A lot more negative comments this year it seems. I still look forward to these every Monday and enjoy what Jerrad brings to the table! Here we go🤟

Ben really knows the exact things that the steelers needs to fix the offense, tomlin should give him a call

[@eddiejames9827]

Nope. Ben should show up and give some insight.

[@blayneb-smith3295]

Favorite part of Monday!

[@DCElzie]

Ben should go teach JF how to use the Pump Fake to move DB'S to help our WR's get open! Ben was the best at it!!

[@toninemeth-r9f]

Ben was and is the greatest at the Pump Fake and yes he could teach JF a lot about the Pump Fake Ben was King of the field on that Love Ya Ben and miss you on the Steelers

[@jackiegerring2098]

Ben could change the course of a game with a single pump fake!

[@detailorfitness]

Lol aye Some stuff you just can’t teach…thats kind of like one of those Big Ben signature things…but receiver room will be fine once we are able to establish a healthy balance of run/pass 💪🏽

[@detailorfitness]

O-line is beat up…Biggest part of establishing the run and giving JF enough time to pass/clean pocket

[@FreshmanFrenzy]

We don’t have the oline to give JF enough time to fake a read in the pocket and flip his hips to make those type of plays.. not to mention Ben was a tank so the first guy to get free rarely ever brought him down anyway

[@jakegreen5179]

Finding out Spencer is 6’1 blew my mind

[@CaseyCutrary]

Ben it was good to see you play on that level before the end. You showed the world …..🏈u fed those wide receivers families that was cool to see

[@USMC8506]

I spent 21 yrs as a U.S. Marine. Everything Jerod talks about with the soldiers is the reality of being in uniform. There is an image you must uphold as you rise through the ranks so as to project to the junior troops the confidence, experience, and knowledge they need to feel from you as they rely on you to get them through whatever it is we were going to face. I can relate to pushing down my personal feelings and thoughts to the deepest recesses to enable me to function for the mission. After I retired, I was diagnosed with Transition disorder which I still struggle with to this day. It’s not easy to walk away from what you were for a couple of decades. I’ve grown closer to prayer and reading scripture which has helped me work through situations I deal with in life. It’s hard to express clearly those hurdles I may face, but my faith has helped me learn the Lord has laid out the path to follow.

[@steelersfan1076]

Ben, Spence and Jarod. I want to thank you for uploading every week. One of the highlights of my weeks, i try to watch every vid but sometimes takes me a couple days depending on my time. Now im 16 But i appreciate you talking about your family and how faith is in your family personally thats a big reason i watch this i go to a bible fellowship church in pa so im glad i can call you guys brothers in christ! Miss you ben in the black and gold but all good things have to come to an end eventually. Maybe sometime our paths will cross and meet in person, prob not but its crazy to think how normal a "famus person" can be, i think personally we hype them up to be out of this earth people and idolize them which is not good but i catch myself doing that sometimes so i appreciate you for that and your beliefs ben. Your an example for others keep it up man. GO STEELERS! STEELERS COUNTRY LETS RIDE!

[@timking-iy9jw]

"Who Ride .....We Ride" was J Peezy's pre game chant. I remember when he 1st started doing it. Very cool that it's still around. Wonder if he brought it back himself, when he coached the LB's.

[@robbycross3265]

I grew up watching Ben play for the Steelers, I love hearing him break down the Steelers game. Honestly I skip to the game recap because of the religious tone. Not hating, do you, I will still watch.

[@xx1CRU]

I do the same thing. I have no issue with anyone wanting to express their beliefs and I know a lot of people enjoy that aspect. More importantly, it's their show so they can do anything they want. Who am I to tell them otherwise😅 But I'm not the most religious person, so I just skip around to the other stuff, especially the Steelers game recaps. I love the show

[@christophersexton5778]

Love show. (Minus jared) always look forward to it.

Way 2 go Ben.

[@JoshCrawford]

Great content today boys!

[@delewis4578]

Love the Pod Cast

[@jonathanbusby1255]

Interesting to see this take from Ben about losing games we should win, some of that started towards the end of his era in PIT like 2020 playoffs and 2021 tie to the Lions. Now that it's more prevalent makes you wonder if he's just more obvious to it or how much he kept it under wraps back then due to him calling his own plays based on in game adjustments.

And we're glad to be back W

[@jonnybegood14]

Great team win. Special teams offense & defense

[@danielhall2991]

I would say Big Ben my brother had that problem too he didn’t ask for help much but eventually it ended up being his downfall frfr he still alive but he realized he needed friends good ones to help him along the way .

[@CaseyCutrary]

I liked the year with Jericho Cotchery💛🖤Ben you was on fire that 🔥🔥year all the way to the last play of the year remember?🏈💨💨

[@JoeSteelerFan]

The Steelers offense is kind of like an old car that is currently running, but not running very well. You know that something ain't right, but you continue driving it because it's currently getting you where you need to be. Seriously, It shouldn't take it 3 forced turnovers, 2 Raider roughing the passer penalties and a blocked punt to achieve a 30+ point game.

[@ericthurman1050]

love this podcast. Also agree with Justin take.

[@josephobray1124]

Totally agree with Ben let kids play all sports never know what they can excel in!! I played all sports baseball, football, golf and even bowling and wound up getting a scholarship in Baseball played through college and still enjoyed other sports!! Still a good amateur golfer and actually bowled a 300 game and averaged 200 in bowling!!! Let the kids enjoy without drilling one sport in their heads all year long!!!

[@Tagraz]

His arm is gone and he can't move...

[@xx1CRU]

​@@Tagraz Absolutely NO shade to Ben at all. But after watching his last 2 years with the Steelers and how his arm and mobility had gone south. How are people still making this kind of comment😅 I love Ben!! He made my 20's and most of my 30's some of the best years as a Steelers fan!! And I am definitely realizing now, the luxury of having a legit franchise QB for so long😅 But people saying he could come back now are just delusional. Again, no shade to Ben, I'm sure he would say the same thing. But maybe they are just joking or something🤷‍♂️

[@jamesberner6040]

Well what we need is a QB that can throw in the middle of the field...We have 2 big TE's and don't use them..Fields needs to start using the whole field not just half or a quarter...Love the show and the recap...

[@CaseyCutrary]

The LB intelligence level is probably in the high 90’s this year…that 41 is good, Roberts, WATTs playin at a high level, herbig I mean wow 🏈🌪️🌪️

[@elmehdihamdi8598]

Quick question for Ben!!! Do you think if you come back to play would you be better then most of the nfl starting qbs or no?
