Summary

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Wes Uhler of Steelers Nation Radio. The Pittsburgh Steelers must develop a game plan around rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett with the right concepts to get him a jump start against the Buffalo Bills Sunday. His first start will provide challenges, but there could be easier play calls in Canada's playbook to give him simpler reads to process and keep the Steelers' offense converting third downs. Mike Tomlin spoke to Pickett's ability to call audibles at the line of scrimmage. But will Pickett be able to make such switches in a live game that he prepares for? Also, with injuries to Minkah Fitzpatrick, Terrell Edmunds, Ahkello Witherspoon and Cameron Sutton have put the secondary in a tough spot against Josh Allen, Stephon Diggs, Gave Davis and the Bills' offense.v CALL INTO THE SHOW AT 412-223-6644 or if international, e-mail your audio message to LOSTEELERSTOPICBAG@GMAIL.COM Follow Chris Carter on Twitter: @CarterCritiques.
