Repeating in full voice: NO RACISM -- or anything remotely resembling it from any perspective -- on our company's threads. One strike, and you're out. This is a Pittsburgh company, and we proudly carry ourselves accordingly. -
I feel for TJ, Cam H., and Minkah. I want them to get a SB ring as Steelers. I appreciate the long hours and hard work they all have invested toward getting that ring. I hope they all get to that game and get that ring soon!!! Love the show, DK, and thank you!!! Really appreciated the TJ video. I had seen it earlier, and it was even better seeing it this time!!
You’re right DK. Ive become disengaged. I dream about the first play of the game and its 1 and 10 Najee up the the middle for no gain. And then I wake up.
DK and Chris this all sound great but guess what Tomlin won’t do any of this . And that’s the sad part Tomlin won’t give us the best opportunity to win.
If we come out in the first two drives and the first two plays are runs. If it's still daylight out here on the west coast I'm going to go the mow lawn. We need to spread them out in three wideouts sets it's not against the rule to run out of that set!
In regards to Minkah's deep third in cover 3. I've never seen any coach at the HS or college level ever coach a safety to play that deep. He just can't be competitive on anything. In fact it makes it easier to hit seams quickly, over routes, and such. It's so damn conservative!!!!!
You're not wrong. This is the least excited I've ever been about a Steelers football game. I breathe this game and this team......I'm so frustrated with the direction of it and its current trajectory. I need this team to go on a little run here for me to have hope for '25 and beyond.
You were excited last year in Buffalo, or a couple of years earlier in Kansas City? I’m sure just like me the last time you thought the Steelers were gonna win a playoff game was 4 years ago at home vs the Browns. I’ve had zero faith since then. The last two home playoff games are the most Pittsburgh has ever given up at home in the playoffs.
@johnbruce4003 with #7 I always had hope. Even when he was old. He has a lot of GW drives even in his last season. Last season they were playing better football down the stretch so yes I was hoping for an upset......but the performances since the AFCCG in the playoffs and watching the results over the last 5 seasons overall have sapped that from me.
Are the Ravens really that much better than our Steelers? Are the Steelers really that bad? Steelers vs Ravens last meeting, Wilson fumbled in scoring territory. If he doesn't fumble Steelers at least get 3 points. In the 4th qtr, Wilson throws the pick six. If he doesn't force that throw, Ravens don't get 7 pts and the score is something like 27-20 Ravens. Some of Wilson’s stats, 217 yards 2td to 1 int and the 1 fumble. Some of Jackson’s stats, 207 yrds 3td to 1 int. Wilson ran for more yards than Jackson. Oh by the way, Pickens didn't play in that game. The Steelers still have a chance to finally get a playoff win if they eliminate mistakes. These are The Ravens and The Steelers. They know each other very well. I'm not predicting who going to win, but the Steelers have a chance y'all. At least for one playoff game.
Thank you Dk and Chris, I was but I made my mind up to be positive. We all would love to see a win. I want to see TJ Watt fired up and ready. I'm ready to see my most favorite team in the whole world give it their best. I refuse to glum out. Here we go !!!! Great show guys, A win is possible
Congrats DK!! It took 18 weeks but you finally brought up the biggest issue! Minkah is a non factor and that has to change, immediately. Here we go Steelers!!
Unfortunately fans don’t have amnesia. I’m just focused on this game, You can’t win a SB if you don’t get in the playoffs. Sure it’s ok to be unhappy about the previous 4 games, but come on, reset your attitude and focus those good vibes to your team!! HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO!!
J1Q: Howdy, DK! Your “Daily Shot” about Mr. Rooney had me thinking and I wanted to get your thoughts because I feel as if you’re the best person to ask that will provide an honest answer. All across the internet and social media are conversations regarding the coaching staff. A topic that is popular amongst many fans and one that I’m constantly hearing/reading is suggesting that the reason this team doesn’t go after a Ben Johnson or Brian Flores type of coordinator is because the Rooney’s don’t want to pay them such large sums of money. Basically, they’re accusing Art of being too cheap. Personally, I think that’s wildly ridiculous and don’t believe it, nor have I really seen any actual evidence to support such a claim. Can you dispel these rumors and provide some clarity? Love the show! Donovan Nashville, TN
Yes, we have become disengaged and it’s for a good reason. When a team is struggling as bad as the Steelers have been it is only natural for people to become less engaged in content relating to the team. Regardless of our hope for the Steelers, they’re gonna win and lose based on their performance and their competency of the staff coaching. I wish that the fan outrage was simply manufactured , however, it’s not we’re just vetting the Steelers and their performances for the last four games, and the last seven years or so . I mean this with all due respect.
Zay Flowers out? Mike Tomlin “Hold My Drink “ we’re gonna smash up the middle with Najee then we’ll really throw em off and bring Patterson in and throw some pitches for no gains and losses. Russ do your thing check downs and throw a moon ball to Pickens. The other receivers are just placeholders. On defense we’ll really throw them for a loop we’re gonna run our zone and put zero pressure on Lamar. Let’s get em fellas
Im not disengaged. But I believe this team has proven its shortcomings insurmountable, so I dont have a reasonable expectation of victory. When things didnt work, and they knew it wasnt going to work, they changed absolutely nothing and pretended to be shocked at the predictable results. So, as a reasonable human being, I think it makes sense to expect more of the same, with same said predictable results. I will still fist pump the air on any touchdown, sack, interception, fumble recovery, block etc. for the good guys, but I wont go in to the game with the expectation that victory is remotely likely.
TE Likely is no slouch. If he goes somewhere else he’s a star. Good afternoon DK. I’m not disengaged with our team. Disengaged with narratives that can only be cured with playing and winning.
Sutton was a good player in the past but has slipped this season. I agree Beanie should get more PT. Honestly, I'd rather play big nickel or base against them if Balt deploys 2 TE
TJ is absolutely right. For me, I’ve said for years that the best LB in Pittsburgh since Lambert and Ham is James Harrison. I’ve seen plenty of fans say Watt is the best Steelers LB of all time. Sorry, this isn’t Jacksonville, it isn’t Detroit. The Steelers Franchise is built on six Super Bowl trophies in their trophy case. If you’re not a part of any of those Championship Teams you’re automatically excluded. You can’t call someone the greatest boxer of all time if he never won a title. Some say Big Ben is better than Bradshaw. Ben’s postseason QB rating if I remember correctly is around 80. Terry’s was something like 113. Bradshaw has 2 more Super Bowl rings, 2 Super Bowl MVP’s and a League MVP. Case closed.
I think there is a key difference in boxing though. Boxing is one guy, so yeah you can't be a goat without winning a title. Football is different because it is at least 22-25 guys that matter. You can be easily be the goat and be stuck on a bad team, look at Barry Sanders. No championships, one playoff win, still the best running back of all time. I just can't agree with you because of that, the sports are way too different to apply the same standards.
I would start Jaylen Warren having the defense have to chase wear them out then have Najee punish in the 4th and thats if we're up and our O-line can run block
Yep, you are right. A long time fan that has become very disengaged. Not really looking foward to this game. We have a bad Offense, a Defense that much of the time is not elite. Also a coaching staff that is not good.
Mink & Kazee play deep to keep everything underneath. Tackle the catch. We all saw a few years ago where deep balls beat us regularly. Now they may be 5 yards too deep. Just my 2 cents
Pure anger and fury is more like it. Fed up and disgusted, yeah that too. I cant even begin to imagine how the former players feel about this mess. They need to get outa this funk and get this game won at all costs. Dont talk about it just do it!
Great show D/K. Win lose or draw I'm all in to win I have faith and hope that this team plays this game like I think they can. I've been a Steeler fan since August 23 1970 when I was old enough to semi understood the game the reason I breathe bleed for the BlacknGold because of the colors go figure. Born in 1966 . The game was thoroughly explain to me every day. I'm not. worried about the drama the fake media . I read what sports writer's put out. I don't give a dam about what the drama queen say on espn etc.. I'm a Steelers fan not a media fan.
#steelers fans for the rest of the week, lets be positive towards our team. Lets not complain Lets worry about that stuff on the off season, right now We have the Ravens we see them 2ice a year. This is a good thing we can beat them, positive talks and vibes only. #herewego
Now for some reality how about stop running the ball when you know it’s not working I appreciate TJ but how about tell your d coordinator or coach to strategize ways to make you more effective instead of blindly letting you get triple and double blocked. How about use the pass to set up the run because you have yet to be a running team do some of those things then we will have faith
What worries me with Flowers being out is that if Baltimore is smart… and I think their coaches are quite a bit smarter than ours… they will utilize their TE’s more and that is something we have historically struggled to defend ! On the flip side.. will we change our offensive gameplan at all and actually come out attacking their weakness ( their Secondary)?? Now that would be something wouldnt it?
Great show, however call me cynical but I can see a no name WR light the team up 🫣! I remember Tim Tebwo throwing for a mile against to the Steelers to a little known Brandon Marshall.
I am a Steeler fan that has never given up and I'm not giving up now let's just see what happens. I say we beat the Ravens I'm not worried at all our team has made it to the playoffs not needing any help support them and let's get number 7!!!
If there are any players reading these comments. Don't worry about the last few weeks. They don't matter. You have to play football and win. This team can do that against the Ravens. We did it earlier this year. Its gonna be tough but the defense will make this game close. Offense just needs to change up the play calling a bit and we will be fine. Here we go Steelers, Here we go!
Ur wasting ur breath telling us this....even the players...this is a conversation u should be having with the coaches.....sadly even TJ's love for Tomlin is blinding him from knowing that the very coach he loves is the same one that's keeping him from a Lombardi.
We really weren't all that phenomenal prior to this 4 game losing streak. We're 1 missed Justin Tucker field goal from not even being in the playoffs. Maybe they'll find something this weekend. I'm not holding my breath but I'm hoping they surprise me!
Tomlin deserves heat for 8 years of playoff futility as well...but blame is equal. A lot of it (Pouncey snap to open Cle 2020 followed by Ben int) is on our stars stinking it up in big moments.
The team might be "trying", but it's not about wanting it really badly. It's about understanding that every single thing you do should be directed at winning. You should be starving to learn how to play your position better. You should devour any bit of knowledge that your coaches give you about the other team. The team has been playing sloppy mistake ridden football, which doesn't sound like they're really trying. It seems like they're wasting a lot of energy on being frustrated instead of addressing the problems in the team. I will believe that this team is trying to win, when they play with some focus and discipline.
The Steelers better pull out all the tricks in the book on offense and defense give Baltimore something to think about catch them off guard throw something at them they havent seen before. Make it competitive for crying out loud.
Could it be coaching needs to get 100% better? Play to our strengths and not to what "feels" comfortable! We have the players, we need Tomlin to put the right combination of players in winning situations. That is what a coach is paid to do!
I hear ya DK...but how about TJ helps his own cause? Has either been injured or played below the line in his playoff career...he and Ben(4 multi-int games in Tomlin era) own that while Tomlin has taken all the heat. Pat F gets zero heat despite giving away last two games. No wonder the disclaimer.
The first Steeler's play will be Najee for no gain and..........that's when I tune out, and dream about the Draft actually coming to the rescue this time.
It’s crazy how Dan Campbell has faith in Deion branch but Tomlin has zero faith in beanie bishop it just shows Tomlin has zero patience in young players 🤦🏽♂️
Nobody's saying there aren't players, like TJ, on that team that want to win it all. We have never been a team of complete bums, a group of losers, or quitters. Those of us disengaged by the outcome of this season are like those in a marriage who keep arguing over the same issues for the past 8 years. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. How can you be excited about the FUTURE unless SOMETHING CHANGES? MEDIOCRE MIKE has been EXPOSED this year, more than any other. Even if they beat The Ravens tomorrow, that's not that big of a deal to real Steelers fans (because the Ravens aren't ALL-WORLD this year, and Lamar has a choking narrative like Mike Tomlin's playoff record). We desire to see GREAT FOOTBALL because that is our Franchise Standard. This team is not....and not likely to be...a GREAT FOOTBALL TEAM. Our standards dropped to winning a single playoff game, like we're The Jets or The Bears or The Jaguars. Mike Tomlin has become Marvin Lewis 2.0! (Marvin was a good football coach, but did ANY Steelers team ever fear Cincinnati when he was their Head Coach?) ABSOLUTELY NOT! Time for a Change!
Because tomlin is illogical - our offensive and defensive schemes are stupid and do not ever use the players strengths. Tomlin decides at the beginning of the year (same every year) what the schemes will be regardless of the personnel or who we play. Zero creativity as well. The Ravens wont worry coz we don't press, cover tight ends or the middle of the field.
You can analyze all you want. But at the end of the day, it's steelers ravens. YOU do NOT know what's going to happen. Any whining you do before or after the game is completely pointless. Ravens vs steelers. Ravens wouldn't be worried playing anyone OTHER than the steelers. Harbaugh is sweating and shttin himself saying "gddamn why's it have to be the steelers?!" Get over yourself. Watch the game. Root for the steelers.
@@lubskipunch8706 lol im just stating the obvious. I am a life long steelers fan and of course will be cheering for them as I do every game. 2 things can be true at the same time ;)
I'm HYPED for Saturday. Steelers/Ravens playoff football? Are you kidding me? What happened to my fellow Steelers fans? Hope is not lost. WE CAN BEAT THE RAVENS. We just gotta find that spark. Which we can. A wrinkle here, a wrinkle there. Things can go our way. Let's collectively will the Steelers to victory. You gotta have faith!
We know this team can beat the Raisons. They already have once this season. To me it is up to the Players. They have to get their act together. Steelers 24-21
Repeating in full voice: NO RACISM -- or anything remotely resembling it from any perspective -- on our company's threads. One strike, and you're out. This is a Pittsburgh company, and we proudly carry ourselves accordingly. -

Sad that this has to be a disclaimer under a video in 2025
@@DKPS_Steelers My guy.
THANK YOU, DK🎉!
Leave it to TJ and his demeanor to give me a little honest faith 😂 love it Let’s go Steelers!!!
You’re right DK. Ive become disengaged. I dream about the first play of the game and its 1 and 10 Najee up the the middle for no gain. And then I wake up.
No no no. The toss play to Najee for a loss. Sorry to ruin your dream..
About sums it up 😢😢😢
Up the middle?? I wish!? More like a hb toss back of 5 yards then get tackled once he makes it back to the line
lol
Arthur Smith just said in an interview that he doesn’t think the offense is predictable.😮
If he can’t see it, unlikely he changes it.
Chris is spot on.....covering the TEs and mid level routes
Dejan, I had a long day, and I was sitting here "disengaged," but the energy you came in with at the start of this episode was what I needed, lol.
Never underestimate a Steelers secondary from messing up an entire geme
Thanks!
We gotta do more than "The Standard" and "Routine Plays"
Idk how anybody could forget Warren's older cousin! Fast willie was awesome
Tackling will be the key especially on King Henry
DK and Chris this all sound great but guess what Tomlin won’t do any of this . And that’s the sad part Tomlin won’t give us the best opportunity to win.
If we come out in the first two drives and the first two plays are runs. If it's still daylight out here on the west coast I'm going to go the mow lawn. We need to spread them out in three wideouts sets it's not against the rule to run out of that set!
I’m with you on this one
In regards to Minkah's deep third in cover 3. I've never seen any coach at the HS or college level ever coach a safety to play that deep. He just can't be competitive on anything. In fact it makes it easier to hit seams quickly, over routes, and such. It's so damn conservative!!!!!
Glorified "Prevent" Defense.
The out of date coaching philosophy for 2025 and the current QB room, if brought back, tells me things won't change next year.
You're not wrong. This is the least excited I've ever been about a Steelers football game. I breathe this game and this team......I'm so frustrated with the direction of it and its current trajectory. I need this team to go on a little run here for me to have hope for '25 and beyond.

Are the Ravens really that much better than our Steelers? Are the Steelers really that bad? Steelers vs Ravens last meeting, Wilson fumbled in scoring territory. If he doesn't fumble Steelers at least get 3 points. In the 4th qtr, Wilson throws the pick six. If he doesn't force that throw, Ravens don't get 7 pts and the score is something like 27-20 Ravens.

Hopefully somebody sent Rooney the link to that TJ video. There's being patient, then there's being passive.
Mr Rooney will watch that and think “damn I need to sign Tomlin to another extension” 😅
Rooney enables Tomlin and therefore simply doesn't care.
That game by the Bus I'm pretty sure it was in Denver. Like 4 rushes 3 TDs and maybe 6 yards. Some crazy numbers like that
Season opener vs Raiders in '04.
@steelking22 to old to remember that well I guess. Had the division right lol
Thank you Dk and Chris, I was but I made my mind up to be positive. We all would love to see a win. I want to see TJ Watt fired up and ready. I'm ready to see my most favorite team in the whole world give it their best. I refuse to glum out. Here we go !!!! Great show guys, A win is possible
I for one, appreciated DK’s Neil deGrasse Tyson reference.
Congrats DK!! It took 18 weeks but you finally brought up the biggest issue! Minkah is a non factor and that has to change, immediately. Here we go Steelers!!
Here We Go Steelers 🚀🚀🚀
Tomlin is not ready to do what is required to win . He needs to let go of his ego
100%
Tomlin is living in the Big Ben era, while everyone is living in the now 🤦🏽♂️
If TJ wants that playoff win he’s gonna have to do it himself. Take over this game, I know you’re hungry TJ
Unfortunately fans don’t have amnesia. I’m just focused on this game, You can’t win a SB if you don’t get in the playoffs. Sure it’s ok to be unhappy about the previous 4 games, but come on, reset your attitude and focus those good vibes to your team!! HERE WE GO STEELERS HERE WE GO!!
A lot of people are just checked out man, happens when you see the same bs over and over. Can’t blame em 😂

Freezing at the bengals game crushed my spirits. It’s very hard to get excited for the game, but we’ll be watching once again and hoping.
The Bus had 3 TDs with only 1 rushing yard against Oakland 2004 season opener
This has to wake Tomlin up in the middle of the night. Imagine watching a player like TJ retire without a ring.
Another point proven here about tomlin with how they're using minkah. Minkah is taking so much crap over it.
Yes, we have become disengaged and it’s for a good reason.

Can the Steelers offense ditch the pitch!
1st pitch over or under 5 snaps of the game on offense. I'm going with the under 😂
Is it possible that our Oline simply can’t pass protect very well?
HES A GOAL KEEPER...
5:08 Feel horrible for TJ. There's a fair chance that he won't win a playoff game. Not in Black n Gold.
For him that means he never will win one. As I can't see him leaving Pitt
I dont know why but i see Jackson just tearing us up!!! not without the game ......
Come on, Pittsburgh! WIN THIS GAME! Gettin’ hyped seeing TJ. They are hungry!…they better be. 😆
Pittsburgh Feelers
I would start Jaylen Warren having the defense have to chase wear them out then have Najee punish in the 4th and thats if we're up and our O-line can run block
Anybody know what happened to the Ramon Foster show?
I enjoy watching the Washington team. full tilt boogie start to finish regardless of the score. Just as it should be.
We need DK on the coaching staff
Yep, you are right. A long time fan that has become very disengaged. Not really looking foward to this game. We have a bad Offense, a Defense that much of the time is not elite. Also a coaching staff that is not good.
Mink & Kazee play deep to keep everything underneath. Tackle the catch. We all saw a few years ago where deep balls beat us regularly. Now they may be 5 yards too deep. Just my 2 cents

Does it really matter how thin Baltimore's receiving core is?
No, it doesn’t, sadly.
So is ours
Ever since Pounce snapped that ball over Bens head this teams been absolute poverty in the playoffs
Before that honestly. The only playoff game they’ve won by a considerable margin was against the dolphins in 2016-2017.
#steelers fans for the rest of the week, lets be positive towards our team. Lets not complain Lets worry about that stuff on the off season, right now We have the Ravens we see them 2ice a year. This is a good thing we can beat them, positive talks and vibes only. #herewego

First play is a TE pass ,for a 8 yard gain 🎉
Tomlin deserves heat for 8 years of playoff futility as well...but blame is equal. A lot of it (Pouncey snap to open Cle 2020 followed by Ben int) is on our stars stinking it up in big moments.
beanie has been alot better then sutton lately..
Agree but they'll keep sending Sutton out there for no damn reason
The team might be "trying", but it's not about wanting it really badly. It's about understanding that every single thing you do should be directed at winning. You should be starving to learn how to play your position better. You should devour any bit of knowledge that your coaches give you about the other team.
The team has been playing sloppy mistake ridden football, which doesn't sound like they're really trying. It seems like they're wasting a lot of energy on being frustrated instead of addressing the problems in the team.
I will believe that this team is trying to win, when they play with some focus and discipline.
At this point we are just trying to tell ourselves we are gonna lose so it doesn’t sting as bad we are years away from being a real contender
What is the injury status of Chris Boswell?
If only the offense was clicking like the defense
The Steelers better pull out all the tricks in the book on offense and defense give Baltimore something to think about catch them off guard throw something at them they havent seen before. Make it competitive for crying out loud.
When we lost to ravens didn’t we miss out on 3 fumbles? And of course the pick six?
Completely checked out of this game.
The FS is back that far bc. Coach Tomlin is living in his fears. Point blank
Maybe they'll win
Could it be coaching needs to get 100% better? Play to our strengths and not to what "feels" comfortable! We have the players, we need Tomlin to put the right combination of players in winning situations. That is what a coach is paid to do!
Bishop with two ⛏️
I hear ya DK...but how about TJ helps his own cause? Has either been injured or played below the line in his playoff career...he and Ben(4 multi-int games in Tomlin era) own that while Tomlin has taken all the heat. Pat F gets zero heat despite giving away last two games. No wonder the disclaimer.
Help use Obi 1
The first Steeler's play will be Najee for no gain and..........that's when I tune out, and dream about the Draft actually coming to the rescue this time.
Unfortunately the draft won't change the play calling...
Well, I had Michio Kaku on my DK football analogy Bingo card tonight, and you drop NDT. Disappointed.
It’s crazy how Dan Campbell has faith in Deion branch but Tomlin has zero faith in beanie bishop it just shows Tomlin has zero patience in young players 🤦🏽♂️
It's just talk. Tj talking. Tomlin talking. Whoever. Talk talk talk. No more talking. Show me. Do it. Then I'll believe.
You want my opinion i think the guys are worn out ⚠️
Nobody's saying there aren't players, like TJ, on that team that want to win it all. We have never been a team of complete bums, a group of losers, or quitters. Those of us disengaged by the outcome of this season are like those in a marriage who keep arguing over the same issues for the past 8 years. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. How can you be excited about the FUTURE unless SOMETHING CHANGES? MEDIOCRE MIKE has been EXPOSED this year, more than any other. Even if they beat The Ravens tomorrow, that's not that big of a deal to real Steelers fans (because the Ravens aren't ALL-WORLD this year, and Lamar has a choking narrative like Mike Tomlin's playoff record). We desire to see GREAT FOOTBALL because that is our Franchise Standard. This team is not....and not likely to be...a GREAT FOOTBALL TEAM. Our standards dropped to winning a single playoff game, like we're The Jets or The Bears or The Jaguars. Mike Tomlin has become Marvin Lewis 2.0! (Marvin was a good football coach, but did ANY Steelers team ever fear Cincinnati when he was their Head Coach?) ABSOLUTELY NOT! Time for a Change!
Please Stop!🤦🏾♂️
Because tomlin is illogical - our offensive and defensive schemes are stupid and do not ever use the players strengths. Tomlin decides at the beginning of the year (same every year) what the schemes will be regardless of the personnel or who we play. Zero creativity as well.
The Ravens wont worry coz we don't press, cover tight ends or the middle of the field.
You can analyze all you want. But at the end of the day, it's steelers ravens. YOU do NOT know what's going to happen. Any whining you do before or after the game is completely pointless. Ravens vs steelers. Ravens wouldn't be worried playing anyone OTHER than the steelers. Harbaugh is sweating and shttin himself saying "gddamn why's it have to be the steelers?!" Get over yourself. Watch the game. Root for the steelers.
@@lubskipunch8706 lol im just stating the obvious. I am a life long steelers fan and of course will be cheering for them as I do every game. 2 things can be true at the same time ;)
Mediocre Mike = One & Done son
I'm HYPED for Saturday. Steelers/Ravens playoff football? Are you kidding me? What happened to my fellow Steelers fans? Hope is not lost. WE CAN BEAT THE RAVENS. We just gotta find that spark. Which we can. A wrinkle here, a wrinkle there. Things can go our way. Let's collectively will the Steelers to victory. You gotta have faith!
We know this team can beat the Raisons. They already have once this season. To me it is up to the Players. They have to get their act together. Steelers 24-21
IF WE SCORE A TD ON OUR OPENING DRIVE IM 100% SURE WE WINNING THE GAME
