Summary

June 12 – Ep. 59: On this episode of The Depot Dive, Ross McCorkle and Joe Clark dive into the Aaron Rodgers signing and the various topics discussed during his introductory press conference. How much say does he want in the offense and what will the dynamic be between him and OC Arthur Smith? Ross gives reasons to get excited for Rodgers given his extensive list of injuries last season and an offensive scheme that will protect him better in Pittsburgh. For the second topic, we talk about the most notable quotes from the various coordinator and coach interviews including Calvin Austin III as the WR2, Derrick Harmon being named a starter and Rodgers being compared to Peyton Manning. We then dive into Adam Schefter's report about Aaron Rodgers being the Steelers' third option and some clarifying comments he made on Wednesday about Justin Fields and Matthew Stafford that were particularly interesting. To wrap things up, we answer a listener question about a game we would like to travel back in time to see in person.

0:22.6	There was Cam Hayward's podcast. There was Ben Rathesburg's podcast. A bunch of players,

1:02.8	We had the opportunity in Indianapolis, but we did not go.
