Expectations shouldn't change without Watt, pressure on Buffalo

The Fan Morning Show - A podcast by Audacy - Fridays

Hour 1 with Dorin Dickerson and Adam Crowley: Andrew Fillipponi has changed his expectations for the Steelers now that T.J. Watt is out against Buffalo. We disagree with Poni that it's ok if the Steelers get crushed in this game. Alex Highsmith thinks the Steelers will be ok. It's real that the Steelers are 1-10 without Watt, but the Dolphins had Skylar Thompson last year and lost by three. The game will depend on Josh Allen. How will he play? Allen was sacked SEVEN TIMES against Miami. No T.J. Watt is important. The Steelers might need to rush five. The Steelers can not get blown out AGAIN in the playoffs after terrible losses to Jacksonville, Cleveland, and Kansas City in the recent trips to the postseason. The weather could affect things and might help the Steelers. Rob in Chicago suggests the Steelers should be loose, as they're playing with house money. It started out as a failed season for Buffalo floating around .500. The Bills could get nervous in the 4th quarter if the Steelers have the lead, tied, or close. Pressure is on Buffalo. People are mad about having to pay for Peacock to watch Dolphins-Chiefs. An old ESPN executive thinks the Super Bowl might be a pay-per-view event soon.
