The Terrible Podcast – Packers Preseason Game Preview, McCarthy’s Comments, Big Ben 2027 HOF Chances & More

Season 17, Episode 7 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, Alex Kozora and I start by talking about the health of the Pittsburgh Steelers as they get ready to play their first preseason game of 2026 on Thursday night.

Alex and I go over the chances of Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers playing in the preseason opener based on what he and HC Mike McCarthy said on Tuesday. In addition to talking about if Rodgers will ultimately play, Alex and I speculate as to what the QB rotation and playing time might look like Thursday night when it comes to Mason Rudolph, Will Howard and Drew Allar.

In the first half of this show, Alex and highlight numerous players on both sides of the football that we look forward to watching play on Thursday night against the Packers. We discuss potential snaps counts for various players, as well. We also highlight what specifically we will be looking for out of Howard and Allar in their first preseason game action.

After thoroughly previewing the preseason game against the Packers, Alex and I wrap up a few other minor things that McCarthy and Rodgers said on Tuesday during their respective media sessions.

With former Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger likely to be a finalist for the 2027 Hall of Fame class, we go over his chances of being a first-ballot selection a little less than a year from now. We also go over several other legitimate first-ballot candidates for the 2027 class.

Former Steelers S Minkah Fitzpatrick was recently in the news for comments he made on the Pivot Podcast, so we go over what he said and give our thoughts.

This 78-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above.
