There’s a point in this show. When Jerry starts explaining his grandmothers diabetes induced death, and it’s the hardest I’ve ever tried to not laugh at something in my life. I love this show. I love making it for you guys. I love venting. Celebrating with Jerry with you all. Thank you for an incredible season. We’re taking Steel Here to the moon. Love you all.
Hell yeah man. I enjoyed this show a lot this year. You guys really found it this year. Look forward to seeing you guys come back.
The grandma part had me dead 💀
And when Jerry thought it was a bear in your basement! LOL. Thank you both for the show.
Kev love you and Jerry best PITTSBURGH POD OF ANY SPORT PERIOD. Now 1 Tomlin must go same result different staff only 2 things remain the same , head coach and the outcome he’s got his hands in to much when he can barely do his own job. 2 we are WAISTING ABSOLUTELY WAISTING TJ’S PRIME , feel terrible for cam they need to clean house and start with the offense you have to be able to score should have knew our offense was going to be shit when the killer bs era didn’t win anything with all that talent honestly I think with different coaching thru them years we have at the least 1 more ring
Mike way to hard headed idgaf if players like and want to play for him sure didn’t look like it in Baltimore shit it looked like they didn’t wanna see him again for 8 months so they just gave up , also what the fuck you think they are going to say they don’t want to or hate playing for him. We need to move on from him and his same bullshit stupid ass sayings, same answers says 1000 words and nothing at the same time every interview, god I hope I don’t let him pull me into stupidity and believe it’s different again next year
Look at the Rams. They sold the farm to win a Super Bowl. They had ZERO first and/or second round picks for years and they’re right back in it. Their defense is 10x more effective than ours with a bunch of rookies and nobodies. TOMLIN IS GARBAGE
And that's because the Rams were honest with themselves. They knew they would have to live with a couple down years after going all in to win the Super Bowl. Now they very well could get their second Super Bowl because McVay is a genius with offense and selecting his players and personnel. McVay has more losing seasons than Tomlin, but McVay has more playoff wins. Tomlin defenders are crapping on Kyle Shanahan for losing this year and not making the playoffs. Well Shanahan now has an opportunity to get high quality rookie players to replace aging veterans. Also Shanahan has been in multiple Super Bowls with average QB play. We haven't done that. The Steelers need to quit trying to win right this moment and plan for being a real contender in a year or two. I'm not saying to tank. Finishing anywhere from Pick #5 to #16 is still an improvement and would allow us to trade up for a QB we want. There is no hope if we do the same old stuff this offseason. Our best defensive players are either over 30 or approaching 30. We have a realistic 2 year window. We won't have our QB in 2025, so we damn well better plan on getting one in 2026.
Tomlin is double garbage for a fact. I hate Rooney! If 50,000 other fan did what I did (meaning I quit supporting the team, Rooney would have to cave and get rid of this arrogant bum coach.
Good point
The best pod for a team in the country. I’m a die hard ravens fan but so many friends and fam are Steelers fans. So your pod keeps me up to date. Good luck this off season and can’t wait to run it back with y’all next season.
Im a diehard ravens season ticket holder but I love watching this show for you and Jerry. Just 2 guys who love ball.
F season , My first time watching the show and I can let you know now you have a new follower.
John mclane voice, welcome to the party pal!
Been waiting ALL WEEK for this one to drop
This has been so many years in the making. I’ve been off the Tomlin train for a very long time. Been checking & waiting for the show. Thanks for dropping the episode. Keep it up & more timely & frequent please.
Also, it’s the way they lose getting absolutely destroyed in every single playoff game.
Go ahead get rid of tomlin youll be like me a giants fan watching bs for the next decade
Been a steeler fan since I was 7 years old. This might be first year I stop watching because Rooney doesn’t care anymore. I love this team but I can’t expect things will change with Tomlin. Won’t be flying out for a game this year that’s for sure. The standard should never be talked about again in Pittsburgh because it left in 2017 after Tomlin should have been fired after that Jags game.
Exactly! When Tomlin didn’t get fired after the Jags loss I knew then he will never get fired as long as AR2 is team president.
I would love to see what the chiefs looked like if Tomlin coached them and same with if Andy coached the Steelers. Might be the only time we'd score an opening drive td
Wish I could send a super thanks bc I love the passion.
Tomlin matched 6 OL, 1 TE, 2 RBs (one being 300 lb Patrick Ricard) with Nickel/5 DBs. He had their edges crashing to the back with the inside backers walked up in the B Gap, with the post safety as the scraper. That's literally unsound football, 2 guys in one gap. That gets HS coaches fired.
Just finished. Gonna miss u guys for the next months. Looked forward to every video this year. I don’t have many friends so I don’t get to hear or talk football, especially not Steeler ball. Appreciate u guys more than u know. Looking forward to the same shit next year baby! WHOOP WHOOP
Bro please buy a billboard saying fire Tomlin😂 that would be so legendary😂😂
I'll contribute.
Love you guys good year listening to you guys found you guys last season and will continue to listen to
Steel Here gets A plus. The best Steeler podcast .
Hey! You are the voice of every Steelers fan! Congratulations, this podcast is great. Greetings from Mexico City!
Really enjoys these pods K & J …. Keep’em coming next year
Thanks for a great season boys! Our team sucks, but you guys rock!
I would disagree with people who say Tomlin is still a master motivator. That team looked pretty unmotivated to me in Baltimore. No fight, no heart, no will to win. You heard KH say it on the broadcast and he was right, there’s no fight left in this team and that’s not the Steeler way. This team quit on Tomlin, he lost control of the locker room by the end of the season and the Baltimore game was a complete failure. So if he’s not even motivating guys, what value is he adding? Because right now I can’t think of a single thing. I’d rather bring in a young guy like Marcus Freeman and let him to do the job.
Thanks for a good season of videos fellas, best in the business, I look forward to these every week, excited for the offseason but god damn change is needed haha, go Steelers!
The boys about to go crazy 😅
Thanks for a great season fellas, love the authenticity of yall and appreciate every episode and the work yall put in 🖤💛 even when the Steelers are depressing, yall make it just a little bit better with your episodes
We need to talk about how bad the drafting has been. Not a single all pro has been drafted since TJ Watt in 2017. Multiple misses in the 1st since then (Edmunds, Bush, Harris, Pickett). Broderick still questionable. I get that most of those mistakes were Colbert, however Khan has been with the team for 20+ years. Is he really the answer? The common denominator is Tomlin. Most of the guys drafted last year regressed hard. We need to stop acting like we draft well because we don’t anymore.
First listen. Well done and enjoyable. We feel each other's 'pain'
Thanks for this show you guys rock
LOVE THE BILLBOARD IDEA!
Thank you for fellas for your hard work and dedication. I look forward to this show every damn week. Also if you guys sold a, “STEEL HERE” shirt, I would buy and wear the hell out of it. I know this show is going to blow up.
Thank God you guys are NOT delusional like some of these other dudes that put up shows. Them and the comments section of their videos are acting like Fields is some elite QB and will take us further than first round of the playoffs. That he is the one answer to alllll the problems. Mentioning his fucking name with Ben or even Josh Allen. I've never see so many people living in a fucking dream world. Thank you for not making me lose faith completely in Steelers nation.
I broke out the wired headphones for this one
You’re completely right Kev! We’re not close but the issue is that Tomlin and leadership always thinks we are and that’s why nothing changes..
Agree 100%. This sums up exactly how all the Steelers fans in my friends and family feel. Keep up the great work!
I truly honestly didn't want to beleive it, however the 1st half looked lifeless.
At one point I'm convinced the players know too and checked out too.
Change Tomlin or hire some one to threaten or challenge his job security, shit shows
Mike Tomlin literally sets the game plan to play safe which equals the team starting slow. Then he has the nerve to blame the team for starting slow in his post game presser.. Absolutely infuriating!
Boys I just wanna say thank you for an other great year of the best Steelers podcast out there. Went to the terrible tailgate for Cowboys game this year and had a good time. Kevin and Jerry you guys are some real ones. Until next year boys 🫡
This show is one of my favorites.
Tomlin will not agree to a losing season no way in hell lol. Total respect for your honest take! Tomlin has to go! Subscribed
Couldn’t wait for this episode. I’m a Birds fan, but wanna hear JJ go OFF!!!! 😂
I love this podcast you guys do a great job
Good stuff guys!!! Absolutely love the brutal honesty!!!!!!!!
I am always excited to hear you dudes. You talk the same shit us normal fans talk and feel. 🖤💛
Best Steelers pod & its not even close!
Boys, love the energy to wrap it all up. Switching to Russ was only a success if we made a playoff run. Makes Tomlins switch a failure and turning fields into a ? Because he was getting better each week, now we have to use another year (maybe) to even know if he could be the guy
If Robert Saleh doesn’t go with the cowboys Steelers have to go all in on him for DC
Can't. He might pose a non zero chance of usurping King Tomlin.
It won’t happen because Tomlin wants total control of the defense.
@@steelphantom9105exactly
Love your passion love the show!
You can change the whole team with high-end Talent as long as you have Tomlin they will drop the ball
I honestly hate this team under Tomlin now. Theyre such a boring team who's unprepared EVERY WEEK. Great show boys! Y'all set the standard for Steelers podcasts
Jerry delivers once again , looking so tired in the video, where he’s almost falling asleep it’s crazy how much he looks like he’s falling asleep every video
Great season thanks for the content Kevin and Jerry
Let’s hope for a better season next year!
Love the pod, guys! Thanks for a great season. Always looked forward to a listen after a good or bad game. Eventually we will be listening to celebratory playoff run recaps. Eventually...lol.
I'm personally okay with keeping Tomlin, ONLY under the condition that he relinquishes control of identity and coordination to YOUNG, (or at the least) FORWARD THINKING COORDINATORS. Given if that's entirely on him and not Art II. Contrary to what some people might say, I think we had a very solid roster, albeit a weak WR room. But enough to go around if we had good game planning and a good play book. Give Ben Johnson or Andy Reid this roster and they're making a decent playoff run or at least making a Wild Card exit COMPETITIVE. He can continue to be the great leader of men he is, that's great, but they NEED fresh ideas and new blood in this stale organization. Arthur Smith was a bit better than the circus we have had at OC until the back half of the season, and Tomlin/Austin's game planning for the defense is just horrendous. Football purgatory for now, but it's still always Here We Go!
Going to miss you guys. I've agreed with everything you've said all season. Go Steelers
Can’t wait for next season to 💪
From one Steelers fan you guys are the real deal. It’s about time the glazing stops for Tomlin. What a clown this guy has turned into. I want him gone after the Tebow playoff loss. Seriously this over a decade in the coming.
We are lying to ourselves we will all be locked back in come August with that said Gonna miss you boys. Thanks for another good year 🖤💛
Very small side note - DJ lasted 4 years on the Steelers and then got kicked out of four different teams in one year. That just goes to show you how incompetent MT is. He needs to stop being a cheerleader and start being a HC ( he won't.)
Tomlin apologist will flip that and say see, he's a wide recivers whisperer. He got the most out of dj when other coachs couldn't. In reality other coaches seen he was dogshit teammate, a cancer, where the juice ain't worth the squeeze and cut him
@@willr4880 facts
This is about to be a good episode 😂
Oh man I’ve been waiting
Never felt less optimistic about the steelers I actually have no idea what their plan is other than doing the same thing year in and year out. They need to have a draft of a lifetime this year cuz if you look back our drafts have actually not been great for a minute
Fields needs to start. He helped the run game, and was playing the right style of football.
Great show guys. I wouldn't trust what tomlin says about the qb position. Last year he spoke glowing about rudolph. There was also the "qb competition" between rudolph, pickett and trubisky. I wouldn't put too much weight on what Tomlin saying fields now.
Rip “sussy for Russy”
The stat of Tomlin next to Mike McCarthy is crazy
Been waiting!!!!
Aaron Rodger’s coming he can get Tomlin 🔥 maybe that would be great lol
Elite take. Rodgers might be the only person or thing on the planet that could take Tomlin out.
@ stg bro
Tomlin has only won playoff games in 14 out of 18 years! Like wtf is he still doing here Art?!
Absolutely love the podcast 1st time I've seen it. What's amazing is i don't feel crazy now cause I agree with everything u both said nastyd412
I'm new to your show but seen you on X and I appreciate the passion because there's a apart of me that feels some fans don't fan the way we do.. We want success. It's time to move on from Tomlin
I just found you guys i really like your show
Guys , you guys should do show after the draft this year. That would be awesome.
I think fields can be the guy, but as you guys said he’s got absolute shit around him and you have to give the guy a chance. Couldn’t agree more with the takes. Can’t wait until the draft pod ✌🏻
Spot on as always. Let’s play Fields for the entire season and trade the cancers and overpaid veterans. Either we suck and get a good draft pick or we are decent again and continue the cycle
been waiting
Billboard 🎯
Had to Finish this great video, Tomlin does have a lot of the blame on him definitely in playoffs this season, regular season and last 5-8 years. How Tomlin allows Arthur Smith to call the dumbest plays is mind boggling. The Steelers could’ve changed the game of FB this year with the 2 QBs they have. Wilson and Fields 1000% should be been playing at same time to mix it up and keep Defenses guessing. But nope Arthur Smith wants to Pass pass run or whatever then use Patterson who has done anything all game on 3rd 1 , 4h&1 etc Abe just gets stopped or it’s the jet sweeps etc Arthur Smith had 2 greqt RB and couldn’t draw up the correct plays
I've been saying for weeks, GP for a 2nd. And target NYG or N.O., both of which have top 10 picks in round 2.
With both scenarios, i'm also packing our 3rd with GP to move up in the 3rd.
Pit sends:
Pickens - WR
3(89)
NYG send:
2 (33)
3 (65)
NY drafts franchise QB to pair with Pickens and Nebers.
OR
Pit sends:
Pickens - WR
3(89)
N.O. sends:
2(42)
3(74)
Mike Tomlin is the Doc Rivers of football.
This show is great
The boys answered many prayers for one last episode to cap a year of misfortune, disappointment, and (hopefully) change... now we rise like a fucking phoenix from the ashes
We simply need to start justin fields next year. If he loses every game we draft arch manning in the 2026 draft IN PITTSBURGH. Maybe this is our destiny. If tomlin wins us our 7th within 5 years from now it will all be worth it
Well Steele be here men end of day
I dont think Justin Fields wants to stay in Pittsburgh.He skipped speaking to media today
Not a good sign
So what that's great news.
They definitely need to get that defensive line right
Russell Wilson is good QB with 2 good receivers!! Nobody to throw to!!…
Never thought I would say this but I really want this team to lose every single game of the 2025 season. Maybe Rooney would finally wake up and we would have #1 pick and could take Arch Manning as our next franchise QB.
Take the fluffy jacket off Jerry…
this aint the hub homie
North face jacket is 🔥🔥🔥
Both jackets 🔥I might have to cop that nike
Everything these boys said I have felt, and no one says it but them. Trading TJ is the fastest way to improve this team quickly 😢
Tomlin remaining to be the coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers has nothing to do with football. It has everything to do with progress. Tomlin is the first beneficiary of the Rooney Rule. He will be respected in the history books for the color of his skin along with the position he has held for so long and he will continue to hold. Respect coach T because of the color of his skin just as the national media does.
OMG I had to rewind it fucking Jerry talking about his grandma has tears coming out of my eyes 😂😂😂😂😂omfg I got her a sundae on her birthday and she died...love you grama Jerry lol that was funny tho. Rip
Would love us to draft a WR in the 1st round, sign Tee Higgins and get a shut down corner in the 2nd. My dream scenario
What’s crazy is people ask “who would you guys hire?” ANYONE WE FUCKIN WANTED!!! Trade Tomlin, hire Ben Johnson. We give coaches THE LONGEST LEASH IN THE NFL!!! 31:01
Convo at 29:38 about McVay. I said that last year and got laughed at. McVay has the same amount of SB appearances, same amount of wins, and has taken a team that had their receivers out for about half the season, and still got his team to a playoff win. A regular season record does not matter. Win the division games, fuck u can go 9-7, and make the most out of it. Tomlin can’t and will never be able to do that. Get his ass OUT
Tank next year get Archie Manning
It won’t matter if they get Manning, Tomlin will screw that up and he will look like horseshit by the middle of one season. Tomlin misses opportunities to get decent QBs. He had two opportunities to get Lamar but passed.
He would probably refuse to play here.
The fact that Baltimore moved on from a different QB and then constructed the team around him, that’s what will win you championships. That’s what the Steelers have to move to as well. Steelers are stuck in their old ways. But it doesn’t work anymore.
Tomlin ain’t reeling me back in!!
Great show guys. I been done with MT for years, so over rated and lucky.. look at our wins this year: Falcons with Kirk off the jury and new team,Broncos- Nix second start , Chargers- bosa hurt second play and Herbert came into game hurt. Beat raiders who are trash,Jets-a dumpster fire.. Giants- ditto, barely beat Washington on a close call at the end (did they get the dirt down or not), ravens - all FGs and Tucker sucked ass, Bengals- won a shoot out, Browns redemption game at home.. we got lucks as fuck early this season and I argue that’s been Tomlins career overall “lucky” so sick of it
The 🔥 needs to be turned to Rooney. He’s the one ultimately allowing this. Get those billboards up. Crowd fund the damn things if you have to. I’ll donate.
I agree with everything u are saying. I've come to the conclusion that the reason they would never get rid of Tomlin is because he's black. 😂
I think the defense deserves a little grace atleast for the playoff game. They were sick with the flu. They are all human
Put Russ,friermuth,Pickens ,fields , Austin, Moore ,minkah , kazee, queen, JPJ, both heywards and Jackson and Tomlin on the block
No shade to Russ, I think he did everything he could with what he has left at his age and the lack of weapons. But I want nothing to do with Russ coming back. The O-Line is not good enough, and Russ is too short to see over the line to the middle of the field. When he was younger and more mobile, he could manipulate the pocket and get out on the edge to see and make plays. But he is older now, and the line is so bad that if his 1st read isn't open, his eyes immediately go to the rush, and everything breaks down most of the time. Fields hopefully used this time behind Russ to really lock into the mental side of the game. I hope he takes this off-season to work on his intermediate, middle of the field, 2nd level throws. He said he would like to come back and that he did use his time on the bench learning defenses. If that is the case and he can get those parts right, Fields has everything needed to be an elite QB. But will he put it together? We will see I guess.. But if he does not show that next year, they have to position themselves to get up to the top of the draft in 2026 to get a QB. But depending on the situation at that time, they will still most likely be at least a year or 2 away from competing with such a young QB, depending on who they get. Man... not having a franchise QB really FUCKING SUCKS!!!🤬🤬🤬...😅
Tj watt needs to retire a Steeler. He has put to much into this team and city he deserves to win with us. Idk if I could stomach trading Tj because our coaches are failing. Cam is the same way. I love this Podcast fellas. We need honesty and you all provide it.
Nothing changes if nothing changes, guys
