Summary

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers pulled off another fourth quarter comeback, this time in a 20-16 win over the Tennessee Titans Thursday night at Acrisure Stadium. Kenny Pickett--again--struggled throughout the game, but then found a way to turn it on during the fourth quarter with a 32-yard pass to Diontae Johnson and a touchdown pass to Johnson that gave the Steelers the lead to win the game again. How does he keep turning it around? The Steelers' defense struggled to limit Will Levis in the first half, but once again brought strong second half adjustments that led to better defensive play to close the game and advance the team to 5-3. Chris Carter brings his postgame thoughts from Acrisure Stadium.

I'm Chris Carter, the Locked-on Steelers podcast, and I'm here at Ackershire Stadium after the Steelers have won again,

0:06.0

2016 over the Tennessee Titans advancing to five and three here on the season. It was another wild, crazy fourth-quarter comeback game that Kenny Pickett pulls off again. And listen, I'm running out of ways to explain why he is so bad in the first three-quarter,

0:26.5

first three-quarters of a game and missing wide-open guys and just doing things that just seem

0:32.2

like, wow, he's not that good, and then turning it on in the fourth quarter.

0:35.7

I charted him for, I think he was five of seven for 47 yards and a touchdown in the fourth quarter,

0:42.7

giving him a 129.17 passer rating in the fourth quarter.

0:46.2

I think coming into this game, he had maybe the third best fourth quarter passer rating in the NFL.

0:52.0

It is insane what he does when the fourth, when the fourth quarter goes into play. But before the fourth quarter pass rating in the NFL. It is insane what he does when the fourth,

0:55.0

when the fourth quarter goes into play. But before the fourth quarter happened, there was a lot

0:59.0

that went into this game. First of all, the Steelers get their first opening drive touchdown of

1:02.4

the season, huge game. Kenny Pickett said that it wasn't his idea for Matt Canada to be on the

1:07.6

sideline, but it certainly helped. He was able to talk to all the different position groups and helped them get in alignment and get ready for the next drive

1:13.7

each play. And Matt Canada, I thought, called a decent game. And I've said this for a while on the

1:18.4

Locked-on Steelers podcast that he's been calling good games at times. It's the execution that needs

1:24.6

to improve. And I think more and more people are starting to see it throughout this game,

1:28.9

missed opportunities from Kenny Pickett.

1:30.5

On a third down, he tried to throw a low ball to Alan Robinson in the end zone that was well

1:35.9

covered.

1:36.7

He had Connor Hayward wide open in the back of the end zone.

1:38.8

There were plays where he had Deonté Johnson wide open and would miss him.

1:42.0

George Pickens on a cross that could have gone for big yards, missed him there.

1:45.8

And so you think, man, he's just not good.
