00:00Also, rather surprising, I guess, but Jim Harbaugh wins
00:07football games wherever he coaches and the Steelers win
00:10football games under Mike Tomlin. What a matchup we have
00:14in the Steel City on Sunday. Just a point and a half in
00:18favor of the Steelers minus 120 on the money line. It is the
00:21lowest total of the entirety of the week three slate at 35 and
00:26a hook. Quarterback questions the title of the game board,
00:29Joe and that is fair. Justin Herbert dealing with an ankle
00:32injury. He suffered late in Carolina last week. Not sure it
00:36matters. Jim Harbaugh can suit up and hand the ball to JK
00:38Dobbins 50 times in this game and we still expect it to be
00:43Justin Fields starting for Pittsburgh. Joe, let's go big
00:47picture first before we dive into the game. Is Justin Fields
00:50going to start the majority of the games at the quarterback
00:53spot this year in favor of Russell Wilson? Well, that's a
00:57great question here, Ben, because he is just one of, I
01:01read one of three quarterbacks that has not thrown a
01:05turnover-worthy throw. In other words, he didn't throw it two
01:09yards. It should have been picked, Ben, but it wasn't
01:11picked kind of throw where we've seen a lot of guys. He has not
01:14had one of those. Is that even remotely close for a guy that
01:19has had 41 turnovers in the last three years? Is that even
01:23possible to sustain? At some point, I think Justin Fields
01:28going to turn into a pumpkin. Those throws, those
01:31turnover-worthy throws will end up as a turnover and guess
01:34what? Russell Wilson will be there. So, enjoy it while you
01:38can. They're going to have to rely on his arm at some point
01:42and I think that'll be the determining factor if he stays
01:45on the center. They have not asked him to do a ton, 43 pass
01:50attempts in total. He is thrown for 156 yards or less in both
01:55but he has done what has been necessary. You would be
01:58surprised. I kid to know the Steelers have also been under
02:02in both of their first two games this year. Same case
02:06though for the Chargers. Why? They are going to run it down
02:09your throat if they are able to. Justin Herbert, Joe, I joked
02:13that his ankle injury wasn't really a big deal because Jim
02:17Harbaugh could be there but Herbert, in his five years now
02:20in the national football league, has thrown for less than
02:2330 attempts in a game in back-to-back games for the
02:27first time ever. That's what happened this season to begin.
02:32So, as we look at this game, it's close to a pick them. It's
02:36a point and a half spread. The total is low at 35 and a hook.
02:40Which way are you leaning for Sunday in the Steel City? This
02:44game comes down to whether or not that rookie right tackle
02:47Joe Ault, remember Ben there? The big guy. I know that they
02:51ended up drafting in the top round. Yeah. Can he hold his
02:55own against TJ Y? If he can and gives Herbert time to throw,
03:00Chargers win. If he doesn't, you know what happens there in
03:03Pittsburgh.
