Summary

Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Doug McKain of the Locked on Rams podcast for a Crossover Thursday. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Rams have two of the best defensive players in the NFL in T.J. Watt and Aaron Donald. Their game Sunday could very well come down to which player wrecks their opposing offensive line first, as both the Steelers' and Rams' offensive lines have struggled so far this season to protect Kenny Pickett and Matt Stafford. Could that be the factor that determines a winner? Also, Kenny Pickett finished strong in his last game against the Baltimore Ravens, and now he gets the return of Diontae Johnson and Pat Freiermuth healthy from injury. But will that be enough to finally wake up the offense? Finally, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua have been big playmakers for the Rams' passing offense. And the Steelers' secondary has allowed too many big plays to receivers. Will Patrick Peterson, Joey Porter Jr. and Minkah Fitzpatrick be ready to limit their production?
