Predicting the Steelers 53-man roster after the Jets game

The second preseason is in the books, and as the final game looms, now comes the hard part: Who makes the Pittsburgh Steelers' 53-man roster?

Joe and Brian make their final roster predictions following Pittsburgh's preseason finale against the New York Jets. Which players helped their case, who may have played their way off the roster, and where could Mike McCarthy and his staff have some difficult decisions ahead?

The hosts break down the roster position-by-position, including the quarterback battle, offensive line concerns, crowded skill-position groups and some of the toughest calls on defense and special teams.

Plus, which players could be headed to the practice squad, and could the Steelers still make a move before the regular season begins?

Young Steelers Get Another Shot Against the Jets

The Steelers are back at Acrisure Stadium for their second preseason game, this time taking on the New York Jets.

With Aaron Rodgers and Mason Rudolph sitting this one out, Will Howard will get the start at quarterback before sharing the workload with Drew Allar. That gives both young passers another valuable opportunity to make their case as Pittsburgh continues sorting through its depth chart.

Joe previews Friday night’s matchup, including what to watch from Howard and Allar, which position battles could start taking shape, and which roster hopefuls have the most to gain against the Jets.

It’s another chance for Pittsburgh’s young players to make an impression as the preseason rolls on.

What can the Steelers learn from the Seahawks’ Super Bowl win?

The Steelers don’t need to copy the Seahawks’ Super Bowl blueprint, but there are real lessons worth paying attention to.

Joe and Brian break down how Seattle built a defense with depth and speed, why their run game became the stabilizing force of their championship push, and how a quarterback‑friendly structure kept everything on schedule.

The hosts look at what parts of that formula actually translate to Pittsburgh, how the current roster fits those ideas, and what the new coaching staff can borrow as they shape a new identity.
