ALL ACCESS, Smith guys, Mike Florio

ALL ACCESS w/ Aditi – Aditi told the guys about how the air really is thinner in Denver. She is surprised by the lack of players that complain about playing in that city. Aditi thinks it would only be wise for the Steelers to have a package involving Justin Fields this season. She credited Mike Tomlin for the troll job he pulled on some national media members when it came to the QB competition. She got into the cohesion that is needed when it comes to offensive line play. The guys ran through a few receiver options for the Steelers on the scrap heap. Who are some guys on the scrap heap that play receiver or corner? Are they caught up on guys who only worked for Arthur Smith? Some funny fantasy football chatter. Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike anticipates a fairly long leash on Russell Wilson as the Steelers starting QB. He expects Wilson to be the man for at least the first half of the season and the Steelers will revisit things at the bye week. Does a conservative system work in today’s NFL? Mike thinks the Steelers will find their ways to get Justin Fields on the field, even as the backup. The guys asked Mike about a few names that are available after roster cut down day? What is the deal with a player like Kadarius Toney and could he be a Steeler? Mike got into some of the players around the league and if their outstanding contracts could create issues. When will we see the Brandon Aiyuk saga come to an end? How much does Mike get into college football nowadays? Mike doesn’t think Deion Sanders will ever be able to cut it as an NFL head coach.
