Summary

October 30 – Ep. 78: For this episode of The Depot Dive, Ross McCorkle and Joe Clark start off the episode discussing how disappointing the Steelers' defense has been with several stats to back it up. We recap Sunday night's loss to the Packers and where the blame falls. Why did they abandon the run and does the offense share in the blame for the second half collapse? Next, we talk about next Tuesday's trade deadline and the Steelers' first deal for Patriots S Kyle Dugger. Who else should they add and is it even worth it at this point given their 4-3 record? For the final topic, we preview the Colts game, go over the injury reports for both teams, and discuss a few notable matchups to watch. To wrap up the show, we answer a listener question about possible rule changes. Thank you for joining us for this 45-minute episode, and we hope to see your thoughts in the comment section.

Above me here on the screen is Joe Clark, my co-host as always,

and we are going to be discussing the Steelers' loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night football.

Their second loss in a row, the sky seems to be falling in Pittsburgh.

0:21.3

We're going to break down what went wrong in that game and just the general direction of the

with another difficult game coming up. We're going to talk about that Colts game as well

Before we dive in, Joe, I generally label myself as an optimist,

0:58.7

and I think most people who read my writing would probably say,

1:03.3

you defend X, Y, Z person within the Steelers too much,

1:07.6

whether that's Tomlin or whoever that might be.

1:11.6

I'm kind of at a breaking point at this point with this team.

1:15.2

And I think a lot of people, the few optimists that were remaining after the loss to the Bengals,

1:21.1

I think are starting to slip away.

1:23.5

And I would count myself in that category.

1:27.3
