Reacting to Steelers, Art Rooney II's ugly grades in NFLPA survey. Should he get more heat?

In his weekly YouTube appearance, Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise and host Adam Bittner react to scathing reviews of the Steelers organization and owner Art Rooney II in the latest NFLPA survey on how players rank their teams in facilities and quality-of-life issues. Are these perceptions a barrier in attracting talent or getting the most from players on the existing roster? Does Rooney deserve more heat despite his family's rich history with the team. And should positive reviews of coach Mike Tomlin change perceptions of his role in the Steelers' recent mediocrity? Our duo tackles those topics and more from around the Pittsburgh sports scene. Should we take growing roar of rumors tying the Steelers to QBs including Justin Fields, Mason Rudolph and Russell Wilson as replacements for Kenny Pickett any more seriously than we have in the last couple of weeks. Are Pitt's March Madness hopes toast after a costly loss to Clemson? Can trading players like Jake Guentzel and Tristan Jarry really help the Penguins in the short term? And how loud will calls from Pirates fans to see Paul Skenes in the opening day rotation get if he pitches well in spring training and GM Ben Cherington fails to add another pitcher?
