Steelers-Bills: Ed Bouchette reacts to Mike Tomlin's storm-off, defense's latest playoff meltdown
Long-time Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ed Bocuhette joins host Adam Bittner on the weekly Chipped Ham and Football podcast to react to the Steelers' NFL wild card playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday at Highmark Stadium. What should we make of the rumors swirling around coach Mike Tomlin after he stormed out of his post-game news conference when asked about his future? Will this defense led by Minkah Fitzpatrick, T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward ever be great like the Super Bowl defenses of the 1970s and 2000s after yet another playoff meltdown? Or is that core coming to the end of its prime years? Where should general manager Omar Khan focus in the NFL draft with so many clear holes on defense? Does the team have its guy at QB in Kenny Pickett or Mason Rudolph? Or should it add to its mix through the NFL draft or free agency? And do the Steelers have enough at the skill positions with names including Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren, Diontae Johnson, George Pickens or Pat Freiermuth? Or are more weapons needed? Our duo tackles those topics and more.
