North Shore Drive podcast - Pittsburgh Steelers, Pirates, Penguins and more

Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey, sitting in for colleague Paul Zeise, joins host Adam Bittner to react to a report from ESPN's Dan Graziano about the Steelers' interest in pursuing a trade for a No. 2 wide receiver behind George Pickens before the NFL trade deadline. What should the level of urgency for GM Omar Khan be after he missed out on dealing for the San Francisco 49ers' Brandon Aiyuk in the preseason? How adequate are the team's existing options: Van Jefferson, Scotty Miller and Calvin Austin III after solid showings in NFL Week 3 against the Los Angeles Chargers? And are the Tennessee Titans' DeAndre Hopkins and the Jacksonville Jaguars' Christian Kirk viable targets, as Graziano reports? Our duo tackles those questions and a couple of others on Steelers. Will the offensive line's growth be linear? And what are reasonable expectations for this team in the AFC North race with the Ravens, Browns and Bengals all struggling? Later, they focus on the Pirates' Rowdy Tellez dilemma and Penn State's primetime matchup with Illinois this week.
