The SuperGenius likes the Pirates presidential hire, but doesn't think it will enact much change, and predicts the Steelers brilliant turnaround will end this week. And next. And maybe even the Week after that, too.

The Steelers find themselves at 4-4 at the turn despite losing their franchise QB, and Mason Rudolph has been the subject of lofty criticism amid an unlikely mid-season comeback under his orchestration. And although Steeler Nation seems split over whether or not Rudolph is the franchise QB of the future, Merril Hoge insists the process takes seasons and not weeks, just look at Steve Young.

Merril Hoge isn't buying the "check down" theory behind Mason Rudolph's criticism, Mark Madden is impressed by the Steelers climb from 1-4 back to .500, but senses a demise is on the horizon, and we hear from the Tomlin Translator - who is inexplicably cruel to one player above all.

Back at 4-4, the Steelers have finally shaken their September Stench, thanks in large part to defensive standouts like Cam Heyward and his War Daddies Bud Dupree and TJ Watt. Even through questionable penalty calls and muffed reviews (to which Gene Steratore can attest), the Steelers have crawled their way into playoff contention at the halfway point.

The Steelers defense is it's strength. Not only are they consistently forcing turnovers, they're also improving on an individual basis in the face of injury. Bud Dupree has stepped up immensely, and TJ Watt is on a steady projection as well. So how will this unit look to keep the momentum rolling against the reigning NFC Champs?

Week 9 tells a similar story with pass interference review calls making headlines, especially in the Steelers-Colts game. Was Mike Tomlin right to challenge, or have league officials developed a tendency to rule in favor of their initial call? Either way the review process has muddled pace of play and will likely be repealed after an abysmal NFL season.

Minkah Fitzpatrick makes another game changing play in yesterday's slim victory over the Colts, but is it enough to quell the "Worthy Trade" debates? Tim Benz and Gerry Dulac measure the safety's input thus far, and the value in finishing (potentially) as a .500 team with him vs. finishing with a top 10 pick without him. Speaking of safety, what more can be gathered from Mason Rudolph's play through five games, he's 3-2. And Stan Savran is fed up with the Special Teams, in nearly all aspects.

Dave Dameshek of the NFL Network likes Mason's progressions leading into another pivotal match up against a formidable AFC foe, Donnie Iris remembers the days when teachers grabbed you by the hair and smacked you upside the head, Minkah Fitzpatrick embraces Steeler Nation, and Godfrey once met James Caan - hairy shoulders and all. Also, Sean Collier's movie reviews and Wreck Loose perform in the Coffeehouse.
