Show Notes
Stop me if you’ve heard this before, the Pittsburgh Steelers are probably going to finish the season above .500. Again. And if you believe in what you saw on the field in their 28-15 victory over the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football, you might think that the Steelers have a chance to win a postseason game for the first time in a long time.
But Bill Barnwell and the Boston Herald’s Doug Kyed think that, long term, Pittsburgh is stuck in neutral, with no clear path towards improving.
They also wonder if we’re entering the final days of Tua Tagovailoa’s tenure as the Dolphins franchise quarterback.
