The Terrible Podcast – McCarthy Takeaways, Health Updates, Porter Jr. Impasse, Jets Game All-22 Recap & More

Season 17, Episode 13 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing several key things that Pittsburgh Steelers HC Mike McCarthy said during his morning media session.

The Steelers are planning to have rookie OT Max Iheanachor practice on Monday, so we discuss the possibility of him making his debut Thursday night in the team’s preseason finale. McCarthy also said that DB Jalen Ramsey is set to practice on Monday as the Steelers are activating him from the Active/PUP list. We also pass along the seemingly good health of several other players who have been dealing with injuries.

On Monday, McCarthy refused to confirm that QB Will Howard will definitely make the 53-man roster this year, so Alex and I discuss that tidbit. We also talk a little bit about McCarthy telling the media on Monday that the team is at an impasse with CB Joey Porter Jr. when it comes to contract extension talks.

The Steelers made several transactions on Monday morning, so we go over what those moves entail.

In the middle of this show, Alex and I get into our full All-22 recap of the Steelers’ second preseason game against the New York Jets. We start by discussing the two interceptions that Howard threw against the Jets and the role that WR Roman Wilson seemingly played in both of them. We also discuss the mistakes that Howard seemed to make on both of those interceptions. As part of us discussing those two interceptions, we drill deeper into translating what McCarthy said about both of those plays.

After breaking down the Friday night play of both Howard and Drew Allar, Alex and I discuss whether the Steelers keeping four quarterbacks on their 53-man roster appears to be an almost lock at this point.

Alex and I then discuss the starting offensive line’s play against the Jets. After discussing several offensive position groups, we recap all of the position groups on defense and that includes highlighting the play of several players on that side of the football.

Should the Steelers be looking for another wide receiver with three weeks remaining before the regular season starts? Should they be genuinely concerned with Wilson’s seeming lack of development so far? We address both of those questions during this show.

Later in this show, Alex and I discuss the Cleveland Browns reportedly naming Deshaun Watson as their starting quarterback on Monday.

This 83-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap above.
