Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Let's Ride: Throw out all assumptions with the 2026 Steelers
Q: Training camp would be deemed successful if what three things happened?
1) No major injuries to start; 2) Offensive line communication and cohesion improve to establish a solid five; 3) Defensive line dominance and trench control are established, setting a strong foundation for the season.
Let's Ride: Throw out all assumptions with the 2026 Steelers
Q: What is one area that Peyton Wilson can work on to become a more successful three down linebacker this season?
To become more effective, Peyton Wilson needs to gain weight, become stronger, and improve shedding blocks, while leveraging his athleticism and coverage ability to handle a two-high safety scheme.
Let's Ride: Playing the “Better or Worse” game with the 2026 Steelers
Q: Is the quarterback depth chart upgrade with Drew Aller a noticeable upgrade over last year's depth, given OTA rumors and development plans?
Yes, Aller is viewed as a higher‑upside developmental option who could provide more long‑term stability behind Rodgers, with Will Howard as a secondary option, improving both ceiling and depth.
Let's Ride: Steelers football in shorts is better than no Steelers football
Q: Coach, what's your take on that?
The practice concept is to expose players to a wide range of looks in a controlled, scalable way so you can build true fundamentals and on-field language. The emphasis is on understanding roles, technique, and the progression from install to execution, which translates into real game-ready decisions later in the season.
Let's Ride: Predicting playing time for Steelers 2026 rookies
Q: How do you see Max Ihana-Chore fitting into the line this year?
He won't be a starter right away, but with proper coaching and development, he has the potential to work his way into the lineup, likely starting inside as the year progresses.
