Steelers Podcast - The Terrible Podcast

Season 2, Episode 123 of The Terrible Podcast is up and co-host David Todd and get right into talking about the recent salary cap numbers offered up on NFL.com recently and how they could be deceiving if they do not include the veteran salary cap credits that the Pittsburgh Steelers will surely use again this year. We move on to discuss the John Clayton "Theory of 150" as it relates to offensive lines. The offensive line of Baltimore Ravens certainly fit that bill, but David is not a big fan of it. We move on to also take a look at the offensive lines of both the Cincinnati Bengals and the Cleveland Read more [...] The Terrible Podcast – Talking Salary Cap Credits, Theory Of 150 & Jaworski QB Rankings Episode is a post from: Steelers Depot

Season 2, Episode 122 of The Terrible Podcast is up and co-host David Todd and welcome the month of July as that means training camp for the Pittsburgh Steelers begins later this month. We start the show off though by taking a look at the 2012 offensive line of the Baltimore Ravens and where their strengths and weaknesses are compared to last year. Is this a unit that has more downside than upside this year? I think so. The news came out yesterday that former practice squad tackle Trevis Turner has been suspended for four games in 2012 and David and I touch on that briefly before talking about Read more [...] The Terrible Podcast – Talking Ravens Oline, Starks, Adams, Turner & Safeties Episode is a post from: Steelers Depot

We discuss how big of feat that is and why it will likely stand for a while. We move on to talk about the the Thursday transaction that saw the Steelers waive former University of Pittsburgh linebacker Brandon Lindsey and sign former LSU linebacker Ryan Baker.

Season 2, Episode 120 of The Terrible Podcast is up and co-host David Todd and I get right to talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers decision to release quarterback Troy Smith on Monday and move forward with Jerrod Johnson as their fourth string quarterback heading into training camp.

Season 2, Episode 118 of The Terrible Podcast is up and David Todd and I start off with a hat tip to LaDainian Tomlinson, who announced his retirement on Monday. Is LT a first ballot Hall of Famer?

Rashard Mendenhall turned 25 on Tuesday and we discuss if this will be the last one he celebrates in Pittsburgh, as he is an unrestricted free agent after the 2012 season. Mike Wallace had an interesting tweet on Monday and we discuss it as well as the article on NFL.com by Steve Wyche that states the Steelers cant sign Read more [...] The Terrible Podcast – Tomlinson, Mendenhall, Camp QB’s, OLine & More Episode is a post from: Steelers Depot

David ask me if I think Ryan Mundy can supplant Ryan Clark at free safety this year and I give my thoughts on that.
