Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Derrick Bell of SteelersNow.com.The Pittsburgh Steelers' new offense under Arthur Smith is supposed to feature the run game, but what kind of run scheme will they lean on?

Questions about how the team can use play action, as well as the middle of the field, all are important things covered in this episode.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to [email protected] Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mark Kaboly of the Athletic.The Pittsburgh Steelers signed Justin Fields for his potential, but did he struggle at minicamp? Reports differed, but at the center of them was Mark Kaboly of the Athletic. Chris Carter interviews Mark about what happened at minicamp, why Fields didn't struggle, but faces real challenges as he tries to revive his career behind Russell Wilson. If Fields is going to improve, it might primarily involve his mechanics and his ability to read the field. Chris and Mark discuss this, and also feature Fields' most recent talk with Pittsburgh media in the show. Finally, how do Fields and Wilson fit into Arthur Smith's offense? And can that style of play make the Steelers Super Bowl contenders?CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to [email protected] Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.The Pittsburgh Steelers assembled their linebackers in 2024 to include Patrick Queen and potentially fix a problem that's existed for years at the position. But combined with T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, Nick Herbig, Payton Wilson and Elandon Roberts, could this unit be the key to making the Steelers' defense the elite of the elite again in the NFL? Chris Carter examines that question and shares clips of his talks with Steelers linebackers coaches Aaron Curry and Denzel Martin from Steelers minicamp, explaining how this unit compares to the late 2000s Steelers defenses and how the linebackers could be the key to them being the best defensive unit in the NFL again.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to [email protected] Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com.The Pittsburgh Steelers have been a potential trade partner with the San Francisco 49ers for wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, and a recent viral TikTok video from Aiyuk suggests the 49ers don't want him. Will the star receiver be more available for Omar Khan to make a workable trade for the Steelers to add him to their offense? Chris Carter and Alan Saunders don't see that the situation has changed, even with Aiyuk publicizing that the 49ers don't want them. If the Steelers are to make a trade, they don't see it happening anytime soon and more likely being for a receiver like Courtland Sutton. Also, who is the more likely player to have a bigger impact on the Steelers' offense between Calvin Austin, Darnell Washington and Cordarrelle Patterson? Chris and Alan agree on one of those names. Finally, Chris and Alan talk about the impact of the Steelers being set to appear on the in-season version of HBO's Hard Knocks along with the rest of the AFC North.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to [email protected] Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.The Pittsburgh Steelers' offense needs Arthur Smith to blend both the old and new players to make the team's new offense. Chris Carter sees ways for the Steelers' offense to become a strong unit. Tune into this episode as Chris talks with running backs coach and former interim offensive coordinator Eddie Faulkner about how Arthur Smith has leaned on the Steelers' coaches that remained on the team after last year and how that can help speed up the process to create a powerful rushing attack with Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren, and Cordarrelle Patterson. Chris also sees Patterson as a bigger piece in the Steelers' offense with his capabilities as a receiver and a running back. After talking with him at Steelers minicamp, Chris sees Patterson as a piece that could open up lots of unpredictable possibilities for the Steelers' offense. Finally, Chris also goes over Troy Fautanu's last talk with media before the end of minicamp. How does the rookie first round pick look to be fitting in before training camp?CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to [email protected] Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mike DeFabo of the Athletic.The Pittsburgh Steelers' new wide receivers coach Zach Azzanni has taken a hard coaching style approach to challenge the team's yound receivers. George Pickens, Calvin Austin and Roman Wilson all have room to improve and things to prove, and seem to respond well to how Azzanni has pressed them early at OTAs and minicamp. Chris Carter and Mike DeFabo explain what they've seen and how the Steelers' wide receiver group needs to respond to its coaching if they're going to be a productive unit. Also, Roman Wilson has acknowledged he's had some growing pains and Azzanni has challenged him a lot early on.

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.The Pittsburgh Steelers' new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and head coach Mike Tomlin both spoke at the first day of Steelers minicamp, and Christopher Carter sees two battles they face to fix the offense. Tune in for today's episode to hear straight from Arthur Smith about what he's worked on to get the Steelers' offense back on track, as well as words from Pat Freiermuth on how Smith's coaching has been received. Christopher Carter goes into detail about how Tomlin and Smith have two battles to win to fix the offense when it comes to the schematics of the game and the culture of the unit. The schematics seem to be a factor that will come with time, planning and practice. But culture will require more work from the Steelers' coaches, and talented players who will embrace the new foundation being built for the Steelers' offense to thrive once again.CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to [email protected] Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.Theme music is 'Soul Kick' by Ceddy P, and 'Too Easy' by Nerdboy.
