Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the play of cornerback James Pierre, who made his first start of the season in Sunday's 34-12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Pierre was replacing Darius Slay, who missed the game with a concussion, but has he played well enough to keep that starting job, even after Slay returns?
Alan breaks it down.

On today's episode, we discuss James Pierre and Kyle Dugger bringing out what we had hoped for from this Steelers defense. A team that could match the Bengals wide receivers. How we got here was unconventional, but the secondary got theirs back. We also discuss the growth of Darnell Washington, Kenny G. stepping up in relief (again) and the Jalen Ramsey-Ja'Marr Chase incident.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's whether the team has a quarterback controversy after Mason Rudolph played well in relief of Aaron Rodgers in Sunday's 34-12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
The team does not, as they intend to play Rodgers as soon as he's healthy, which could be this Sunday against against the Chicago Bears.
But should they? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's whether the Pittsburgh offense can go toe-to-toe with Cincinnati's in a shootout.
In the last five games between the Steelers and Bengals, every time Cincinnati has had Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins available to them, they've scored at least 30 points.
The Pittsburgh offense is coming off its worst game of the season, managing just 10 points after a garbage-time touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. But it may be up to that unit to find a way to return to form, and secure victory for the Black and Gold.
Can they do it? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's how the Pittsburgh defense can handle the star Cincinnati receivers.
Last time around, JaMarr Chase and Tee Higgins torched them for over 250 yards, with Andrei Iosivas and Noah Fant piling to make it fan even 350 yards for the top four receivers combined in a 33-31 Cincinnati win on Thursday Night Football last month.
This time around, there are different personnel available to Teryl Austin, Mike Tomlin and company, but is there a schematic answer? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the return of rookie quarterback Will Howard from the injured reserve list.
Howard has been out since training camp with a broken pinky finger that cost him his best opportunity to make an impact during his rookie year -- the preseason. With Howard now returning mid-season, will he get a real opportunity to show what he can do, or will it mostly be a wasted season for the sixth-round rookie from Ohio State?
Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the last four games of extremely inconsistent football.
The Pittsburgh offense played well enough to win against the Cincinnati Bengals and Green Bay Packers, but the defense fell apart. Last week, it was the offense coming up well short against the Los Angeles Chargers while the defense held serve.
So what to expect going forward? Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the team's Week 10 game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday Night Football.
The Chargers have the sixth-worst run defense in the league by yards per carry, and while Jaylen Warren had only 31 yards against the Indianapolis Colts last week, getting him going looks like the key to another West Coast win.
Alan breaks it down.

Welcome to Steelers Morning Rush, our new daily short-form podcast with Alan Saunders, giving a longer perspective on a single news topic surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers or the National Football League. Today, it's the roller coaster of emotion that Steeler Nation has been riding the last two weeks.
After consecutive losses to the Cincinnati Bengals and Green Bay Packers, the pitchforks and torches were out, with a large portion of the fanbase wanting to fire Mike Tomlin despite a 4-3 start that had the team in first place.
Two days after a win over the Indianapolis Colts, the fanbase is now aflame that general manager Omar Khan had the audacity to stand pat with the very same squad the fanbase wanted to jettison, instead of going all in on winning a championship this season.
Alan breaks it down.
