Steelers-Browns WHITE HOT TAKES.

Former NFL defensive back Jason McCourty joined the show. Jason is fired up for the matchup tonight that he gets to call for Westwood One. He talked about what the Steelers need to do in order to get the offense going. He raved about the Steelers talent on offense, specifically the receivers, citing a time Diontae Johnson made him look foolish. He said Mitch Trubisky and Matt Canada have to find ways to get the ball in their hands. Jason talked about the Steelers-Pats game from last week, in which his brother got embarrassed for a play by Najee Harris. Jason had a full breakdown of what we should expect tonight. 

Steve Palazzolo from Pro Football Focus joined the show. Steve has no confidence the Steelers will push the football down the field. Steve said Mitch Trubisky has had some success running play action and thinks it’s something the Steelers should use more often. Adam pointed out a weakness in the Browns defense that comes from a good player. Steve thinks the Steelers could give the extra attention to Myles Garrett off the edge with some injuries to other Browns edge rushers. Steve raved about the Browns run game and pointed to the offensive line as a big piece of that. On the flip side, he agreed that the Steelers offensive front has not been as bad as people expected so far. In the Browns zone run scheme, they attack linebackers and put them in tough spots to make big plays and he said the Steelers LBs have scored OK so far, led by Myles Jack. In the QB comparison, Steve said Jacoby Brissett will always stand on the side of caution, but Trubisky could open things up if he wanted to. Steve described the Browns as a demoralized team and the Steelers win tonight.

BLACK & GOLD GAMEDAY: Adam Crowley joined the party as the official pregame show gets underway. Adam gave his thoughts on what he expects from the game tonight. PROBING QUESTIONS for Steelers-Browns. 

Former Steeler Kordell Stewart joined the show. Kordell talked about what the atmosphere is like playing in Cleveland during primetime. He’s riding with the Steelers tonight even though the offense has not looked good. He said it’s still a good situation with Mitch Trubisky and not to panic just yet. He said it’s apparent Trubisky is afraid to make the bad mistake and that could tie into his overall confidence. He said the Steelers aren’t historically a franchise that “starts fast” except for two outliers in 2004 and 2020. Poni asked why it’s so hard for the Steelers to score a first drive touchdown when the offense is scripted out. Adam asked if the Steelers players looked into the Browns players-only meeting or if they’re just focused on themselves. Kordell said he always felt more comfortable in the hurry-up offense and most players do. Chris asked Kordell about why Trubisky doesn’t have the ability to call an audible. Kordell got into situational football and how it might impact Steelers play calling tonight along with what he would do in some instances. Kordell’s game prediction: 2 passing touchdowns from Trubisky, Steelers win a low-scoring game.
