HR2: Mailbag Part 2

Matt and Dale are back as Dale is feeling better. The guys answer listener questions for the majority of today's show!

Listener questions continue to be answered by Dale and Matt.

Even though the Steelers don't have a standout WR2, Aaron Rodgers can elevate the play of guys like Calvin Austin, Robert Woods, and Pat Freiermuth. Jaylen Warren and rookie Kaleb Johnson can be a better dual running back tandem than last year's.

There are a lot of what ifs for the o-line, but in 2025 it has the potential to have its best season since the Pouncey era. ESPN's Aaron Schatz and Seth Walder set out to create a 53-man roster to best represent the first 25 years of this century.

Since ESPN did such a poor job picking a league wide all quarter century team, Tom and Jacob take it upon themselves to decide the roster for the Steelers all quarter century team.

The Steelers chose to extend Safety DeShon Elliott to retain a key contributor in the secondary. Which Steeler who is up for a new contract could get their new deal done next.

From the defensive line to the outside and inside linebackers, every starter and most of the backups have the capability of being major contributors to the Steelers defensive front.

Minkah, JPJ, Darius Slay, and DeShon Elliott with Beanie Bishop as the fifth man might have the biggest question mark when realizing their full potential. Adam Rank lists his five NFL players who are most deserving of being immortalized with a statue outside of their respective teams' stadium.

This week, Michael is joined by Steelers punter Cameron Johnston. After an injury at the start of the 2024 season, Johnson is itching to get started in 2025. He chats with Michael about his NFL journey - and what's to come.

Ben Roethlisberger is arguably the best Steeler of the 21st century, and he was followed up by Russell Wilson for only one season, and now Aaron Rodgers comes to town. How do all three legendary QBs line up against each other.

Aaron Rodgers not only officially signed with Pittsburgh, but he has been an active member at mandatory minicamp, and it already seems like his impact is being made.

TJ Watt did not report to mandatory minicamp but it shouldn't cause too much of a worry when considering his next contract. With Aaron Rodgers now officially on the team, it's time to revise the Steelers win/loss predictions for the 2025 season.

The Blitz gets into more Mini Camp observations as the Steelers approach their final practice.

Uhler and King break down the addition of Aaron Rodgers, and are joined by Steelers sideline reporter Missi Matthews to continue the conversation.

Joey Porter Jr is coming off something of a sophomore slump and Darius Slay is getting up there with age. Both starters need to prove they can handle going up against elite passing offenses this year.

Unfortunately, Donald Parham is going to miss all this upcoming season, so should that make it a no-brainer to sign Jonnu Smith. Minkah Fitzpatrick has had two back-to-back seasons of lackluster play, and it is of the highest importance he returns to first team all pro quality.

Tom and Jacob rank their top ten tight ends from the 2024 season and looking ahead to next season in 2025.
