Summary: Season 9, Episode 57 of The Terrible Podcast is now up and in this Wednesday show, Alex Kozora and I get right to recapping the Tuesday morning transactions made by the Pittsburgh Steelers and what they all might mean for Week 14.<br><br>We move on to talk about the injury rundown that Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin gave on Tuesday that included him ruling out running back James Conner for Sunday’s road game against the Oakland Raiders.<br><br>With Conner now sidelined with an ankle injury, Alex and I discuss if we’re as worried about the Steelers running back position and depth as others seem to be that cover the team.<br><br>Tomlin had a few things to say about the defensive scheme used in the team’s Sunday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers that really set off Alex. While Alex lets off a little steam, I try to play the devils advocate role as we mainly focus in again on the catches that Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen had in the game.<br><br>We cover a few other talking points from Tomlin's Tuesday press conference before finally welcoming Michael Gehlken back to the show.
