Post by smithessmokin » Fri Dec 19, 2025 3:50 am

The Steelers showed out at Acrisure as they bounced Dolphins out the playoff hunt in dominant fashion. Now the Steelers must take the road to Motown aka Detroit to take on a desperate Lions team as they're currently on the outside looking in for the NFC playoffs. Join your hosts Jeremy Kohlman, Wil Masisak, and Korey Karbowsky as they discuss the dominant Dolphin win, look at the matchups against the Lions, and pick some winners in another week which features some playoff caliber showdowns in Week 16.

I don't have anything against Jack Sawyer, he's just not very good. He is on a different athletic plane entirely from Nick Herbig, let alone Penei Sewell. Do you think he's a good NFL player? Based on what?

I dunno, B2B...as I said, you know this way better than me. They don't seem reluctant to play him...how does he compare vs run to Herbig?

Sawyer has some strength-- he's kinda like a AAAA First Baseman who doesn't hit for power–it's a position where you really should be the best athlete on the team in order to be better than average. He's maybe better than a college player but when I watch him, I don't see a run defender who holds his gaps or gets off blocks as well as Herbig, and I don't think Herbig would ever be considered a great run defender.

Emmanuel Sanders had just cooked the best CB on the planet in the prior meeting and drew a penalty and caught a 20 yard pass before breaking his foot in this game. That was a huge loss for PIT not only in this game but in the Super Bowl, a game where they needed to crank the offense to 11 in order to keep up with a red-hot Rodgers.

Well, fingers crossed he's hitting for power tomorrow. Didn't he have a penchant for big plays at Ohio state?

Did Jason Gildong have a penchant for the dong sack? Do stopped clocks tell time twice a day?
