Season 16, Episode 90 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Friday morning show, Alex Kozora and I get right into discussing the annual NFL Honors awards that took place on Thursday night. We talk about the 2026 Pro Football Hall of Fame class and how once again former Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman L.C. Greenwood failed to get into Canton.
With former Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger becoming a candidate for the 2027 Pro Football Hall of Fame class, Alex and I discuss his chances of being a first-ballot selection as year from now. We also talk about how the late Craig Wolfley was left out of the annual NFL Honors' ‘in memoriam’ tribute on Thursday night and how sad that was to see happen.
Since our Wednesday show, we now know a few more hires that the Steelers are making for their new coaching staff. Because of that, Alex and I go over the news related to Joe Whitt Jr., Derius Swinton II, Pat Reilly, Shawn Howe, and Eric Simonelli reportedly being hired by new HC Mike McCarthy.
Alex recently talked to former Steelers WR Demarcus Ayers about new Steelers wide receivers coach Adam Henry, so we go over the main talking points from that interview.
There's now even more news concerning the 2025 in-game altercation that Steelers WR DK Metcalf had with a Detroit Lions fan that we pass along during this show.
With Super Bowl LX taking place on Sunday, Alex and I preview the big game and give our straight-up picks for the contest as well as against the spread that is listed on MyBookie.ag, a longtime show sponsor. Alex and I also go through and pick several Super Bowl LX props related to the weekend betting action at hand.
Will the Steelers play in the Super Bowl in the next five years? What about in the next ten years? Alex and I address those two questions later in this show. Alex and I also discuss and comment on whether each of us would trade all of the 12 perceived picks the Steelers seem set to ultimately have in the 2026 NFL Draft to move up to select Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza first overall.
This 106-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the above recap and we make sure to read and answer a few emails we have received from listeners.
