On this episode of Off Set, Larry Richert and Jay Caufield dig into the state of the AFC North as the Steelers head to Baltimore for the biggest game of the season. The conversation opens with how Pittsburgh rebounds after a difficult loss and what coordinators must adjust to slow down Derrick Henry and fix the mistakes that cost them last week. The guys break down why this rivalry is wide open, how both teams arrive with flaws, and what it will take for the Steelers to leave Baltimore with a win. Full score predictions are on the table.
The show rolls into updated AFC and NFC power rankings, highlighting which teams are rising, which are slipping and why the conferences look dramatically different heading into December.
College football becomes a major topic as the crew reacts to the Lane Kiffin situation, the chaos of championship weekend and how Pitt nearly snuck into the ACC title game. Rumors of a potential Pitt vs. Penn State Pinstripe Bowl matchup also heat up.
The Penguins conversation covers their strong response against Philadelphia, Crosby’s dominance, injury recoveries and the challenge ahead against Tampa Bay as they enter an important stretch of the schedule.
Jay’s Big Man Blitz focuses on loyalty in college football and why Lane Kiffin’s move sends the wrong message. The show closes with talk of new recurring segments, including Bad Beat of the Week and Bad Call of the Week.
