Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders explain why the team's so confident in the run game in 2025.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.The Pittsburgh Steelers didn't make the blockbuster trade like the Green Bay Packers did in the Micah Parsons trade, but Christopher Carter thinks the bigger deal is Omar Khan sticking to the plan. While the Packers may be in their Super Bowl window with Jordan Love, the Steelers are trying to establish their own window by finding their quarterback in the NFL Draft. That will take patience and the development of the Steelers' offensive and defensive lines to become the nucleus of the future. Also, Chris explores what he might think is the defense's weakest link, and why it could be a part of the defense that's easier to protect than last year. And does Aaron Rodgers have the ability to exploit defenses with the Steelers' talents on offense?CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to LOSTEELERSTOPICBAG@GMAIL.COMFollow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'How Can I Lose' by Johnny Quest the Rebel, under his label Renaissance Music.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com.The Pittsburgh Steelers' offensive plan around Aaron Rodgers looks to incorporate several aspects to its passing game that haven't worked in recent years. But Christopher Carter and Nick Farabaugh explore the question if that will be enough to make up for the lack of a bonafide WR2 behidn DK Metcalf. From screens, to play action, to attacking the middle of the field, none of that had been a strong part of Arthur Smith's offense with the Steelers and Russell Wilson, but will be a big part of what they do with Rodgers. Also, the addition of Jalen Ramsey changes the game with how the team sees slot cornerback play a role in their defense. How can that play a big role in the 2025 defense being better than recent years? Finally, the Steelers set their practice squad with some signings that brought back familiar players. Which players will be most likely to see action this season?CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to LOSTEELERSTOPICBAG@GMAIL.COMFollow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'How Can I Lose' by Johnny Quest the Rebel, under his label Renaissance Music.

Will Omar Khan make a move to trade for Meyers or another receiver? Finally, Chris gives his final 53-man roster picks with Alan's thoughts on who he thinks sticks around.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to LOSTEELERSTOPICBAG@GMAIL.COMFollow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'How Can I Lose' by Johnny Quest the Rebel, under his label Renaissance Music.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.com.The Pittsburgh Steelers completed their joint practice against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so Christopher Carter and Nick Farabaugh give their insights. Both think the Steelers' offense can be better with Aaron Rodgers than it was in 2024, and they explain what aspects of the offense can be expected to improve. The key they focus on is efficiency, and that comes down to timing with DK Metcalf and the receivers, as well as chemistry betwen Broderick Jones and the offensive line with Jaylen Warren and Kaleb Johnson.

Chris and Nick discuss that as well as their expectations for Saturday night's preseason matchup with the Buccaneers.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to LOSTEELERSTOPICBAG@GMAIL.COMFollow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'How Can I Lose' by Johnny Quest the Rebel, under his label Renaissance Music.
