Episode 59 of the Steelers Sanctuary Podcast is out. Apologies for a truncated podcast, but Ron Lippock had a work emergency. Before he left we had a really good conversation about the future of this franchise. We discussed what happens next with Mike Tomlin, and Kenny Pickett going forward.
Ron gives us some great perspective of what’s going on with the Steelers. His many interviews with current and former players give us insight into what’s going wrong with this football team. His interview with former linebacker Joe Schobert is particularly eye opening, if you haven't read it yet, you definitely should.
We spend a good amount of time on the future of Mike Tomlin with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ron is completely done, and thinks a change is necessary. I’m not quite there yet, but I’m close. I want to see one more year with a competent offensive coordinator.
We wrap up the pod discussing the quarterback situation on this team. On this topic we are in agreement that Kenny Pickett is not the answer. The Steelers need to go get a veteran quarterback to salvage what’s left of TJ Watt, Minkah Fitzpatrick, and Cam Heyward’s primes.
