January 7, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 74 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into talking about the Baltimore Ravens firing HC John Harbaugh on Tuesday and all of the fallout and related items associated with that move. We discuss candidates to succeed Harbaugh in Baltimore and much more. We also discuss whether Harbaugh's firing has any impact on the Steelers quickly deciding to move on from HC Mike Tomlin, should he lose in the Monday Wild Card game. After quite a bit of head coaching talk from around the NFL, Alex and I talk quite a bit about Steelers K Chris Boswell and his failed extra point attempt late in the Week 18 game against the Ravens. Specifically, we discuss that miss by Boswell being in the books as a blocked kick and whether the tape shows any conclusiveness to that being the case. We also discuss the confusion related to the initial official scoring related to the Boswell failed extra point attempt. Former Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger made an interesting statement on his Tuesday podcast regarding a recent conversion that he had with Boswell, so we make sure to discuss that briefly. The Steelers made a practice squad move on Tuesday, so Alex and I make sure to cover that transaction early in this show. We also discuss the Steelers roster officially being at 52 players as of Wednesday morning. Steelers HC Mike Tomlin held his weekly press conference on Tuesday and as usual, Alex and I parse all of the notable things that he had to say to the media. We discuss his comments on the team's health heading into Super Wild Card week. We discuss how healthy the team is right now and the possibility of a few players having their 21-day practice windows opened on Thursday. Tomlin talked about special teams play on Tuesday, so Alex and I discuss that topic on the heels of the team's Week 18 win against the Ravens. We also go over what Tomlin had to say about the play of DT Keeanu Benton and DT Cameron Heyward against the Ravens. We make sure to cover Tomlin's comments on the team starting faster as well as what he had to say about the return from suspension of WR DK Metcalf. Alex and I begin our weekly recap of the All-22 tape of the Steelers’ last game, the Sunday night home win against the Ravens. We start on the defensive side of the football and spend a lot of time discussing the play of several individual players. After thoroughly discussing the defensive tape from Week 18, Alex and I then do the same when it comes to the offensive side of the football. The 2025 All-Pro selections should come out on Friday, so ahead of that, Alex and I go over the list of Steelers players likely to receive votes. We also give our thoughts on the two players on the team that are most likely to be voted First-Team selections. This 110-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted and we wrap things up by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.
