• Steelers-Dolphins reaction: Mike Tomlin, Arthur Smith push the right buttons for rare onslaught?
    2025/12/16

    On the Tuesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Noah Hiles welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo to react to the NFL Week 15 Monday Night Football victory against the Miami Dolphins.

    How much credit do coach Mike Tomlin and OC Arthur Smith deserve for this team's most complete victory of the season? What adjustments did Smith make to get Aaron Rodgers, Kenneth Gainwell, DK Metcalf, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and the offense on track after a shaky first 25 minutes? Why was Tomlin more aggressive in going for fourth downs with the Connor Heyward tush pus? Is Gainwell becoming the offense's most dangerous weapon? And how did Cam Heyward, Alex Highsmith, Patrick Queen, Jalen Ramsey and the defense clamp down on De'Von Achane and the Dolphins running game after struggles the past two weeks against James Cook and the Bills and Derrick Henry and the Ravens? Especially without T.J. Watt? Our duo tackles those questions and more.

    Then later, the guys ponder this team's NFL playoffs chances and the ability of "castoffs" including Valdes-Scantling, Asante Samuel Jr. and Kyle Dugger to give it the boost that it needs come January.
