When you need optimism and positivity in a time of sorrow for the Pittsburgh Steelers, you turn to Mark Madden and Tim Benz.
We are nothing if not a beacon of hope in your time of need.
For instance, in today’s “Madden Monday” podcast about how the Steelers will miss the playoffs for a second straight year, we remind you of the silver lining of their elimination: HBO’s “Hard Knocks” may be coming to Steelers training camp in August!
That’s right, the Steelers are eligible for the series now that they’ve missed the postseason for the second straight year under the same head coach. Mark tells us if he thinks they’ll get picked.
We also debate what happened to JuJu Smith-Schuster down the stretch of this season. And we dive into the woes of the Steelers run defense Sunday, how their playoff positioning melted away, and how hard the road map is to follow for improvement in 2020.
We talk some Penguins, too. Specifically, we analyze the successes of Bryan Rust and Tristan Jarry, along with the struggles of Matt Murray.
Oh, and it’s “Movie Time with Mark.” We go on a quest for any new ideas in Hollywood.
