Summary

Jan. 1 – Ep. 85: For this episode of The Depot Dive, Ross McCorkle and Joe Clark recap the Steelers' disappointing loss to the Cleveland Browns and the position it's put them in for Week 18. We talk about the lack of offense, the missed opportunities, the WR struggles, and much more. Next, we preview the winner-takes-all game against the Ravens including the injury reports, matchups to watch, and what Pittsburgh needs to do to win. We also give score predictions. For the last topic, we try to get a handle on what this team actually is? Can they win a playoff game if they get in? What will happen to the roster and coaching staff if they don't? To end the show, we answer a listener question about comparing 2024 and 2025 seasons for some players. Thank you for joining us for this 43-minute episode, and we hope to see your thoughts in the comment section.
