Summary

January 12, 2026 - Season 16, Episode 76 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Monday morning episode, Alex Kozora and I get right to talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers as they prepare to play the visiting Houston Texans on Monday night in the final Wild Card game of the week. In our weekly housekeeping portion of this show, which is sponsored by the fine folks at TouringPlans.com, Alex and I talk about the Steelers' latest injury report, which was released on Saturday afternoon. We discuss how we'll be watching closely on Monday whether the team makes any elevations and if so, how any of those could impact the pregame inactive list later in the evening. The Steelers opened the 21-day practice window on DT Isaiahh Loudermilk a few days ago so that nugget also gets our attention early in this show. The All-Pro designations came in on Saturday morning and so Alex and I discuss Steelers DT Cameron Heyward earning Second-Team honors for the 2025 season. We also go over all of the votes that other players from the Steelers received from the All-Pro voters this year. Wild Card weekend included a lot of great games on Saturday and Sunday, so Alex and I go over what transpired in the five contests that have now been completed. We also discuss the fact that the Steelers will play the New England Patriots on the road next Sunday in a Divisional Round playoff game should they beat the Texans on Monday night. With no beat writer from the Texans to talk to on this Monday, Alex and I provide our own preview of the Steelers-Texans game. We break down what we are looking for out of each team on both sides of the football. We start by talking about the Texans' offense and then move on to discussing their great defense. We go over what we think the Steelers need to do on offense, defense, and special teams on Monday night to beat the Texans. Alex and I then give our picks for Steelers-Texans based on the line provided by show sponsor MyBookie.ag. We make sure to give our final score predictions for the Steelers-Texans Wild Card game as well. This 86-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted above and we end this episode by answering several emails we received from listeners. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.
