The Pomp And Joe Show
Six Pack - Rodgers could definitely return, Will Howard, Penguins dominate
30 Jan 2026
Chapter 1: What are the latest updates on Aaron Rodgers' potential return?
Did limits just say a brevi instead of a bevi of things? Yeah, limits. I'm a little bit worried you might have messed up there. It's a bevi, not a brevi?
There is no brevi. Brevi's not a word, I don't think. You better check your Malsy Thesaurus.
That's why I added that in. Because I don't know how to check the thesaurus. Bevi, I think it's B-E-V-V-Y.
It's not brevi. Really?
Yeah.
24 years on this earth and I always thought it was brevi.
Yep. You might have to take a ballsy moochoo while you're at it.
It's up there with Zygest now.
Zygest?

Chapter 2: Why is Will Howard generating buzz among NFL fans?
I just don't see that ending with anything beyond sneaking into the playoffs and getting hammered in the first round. Art said he'd run it back, Art's running it back. Your reaction out there to what Kabaly wrote and to the notion that Aaron Rodgers will be back for another run, the notion of it, we don't know yet.
We don't know for sure if this is going to happen yet, but, man, I know Pompeiani doesn't think it'll happen, but it sure looks that way. 412-928-9370. Welcome to Adani Football Friday. Off the top, presented by J.P. Roofing and Siding. Fan Twitter brought to you by South Hills Kia Peters Township. It's them at SouthHillsKia.net.
The text line brought to you by Edgar Snyder & Associates, a personal injury law firm where they always say there's never a fee. unless we get money for you. And of course, the Rogers story is accompanied by another one limits and I would like you to crack one in favor of this. Thank you. It's will hard and we have Donnie in here. A tried and true Yinzer, and I mean that as a compliment, Donnie.
You're an unbelievable Yinzer. And I want you to judge who had the better Will Howard, a caller to your guy's show the other day who said I'm a Will Howard guy, or Mike McCarthy. And I suspect that McCarthy, even though he needs no lessons in Yinzerese, really went hard on Will Howard in his news conference to appease the masses.
So, Limits, why don't you play for Donnie the caller and then Mike McCarthy multiple times, and we'll let this man, and there's no better judge that I've ever met, to judge which one was more pure yinzer, the caller or Mike Mack.
I'm a Will Howard guy. I'm a Will Howard guy. I'm a Will Howard guy. I'm a Will Howard guy.
I'm really excited about Will Hart. I'm really excited about Will Hart. I'm really excited about Will Hart.
Donnie, do you need another sampling or was that enough to judge?
I'm really excited about Will Hart.

Chapter 3: How do the Steelers plan to address their quarterback situation?
And I respect Bob's opinion. Maybe I'll be totally wrong. I don't know yet either, by the way. I'd like to see the guy play a preseason game. But if we're going national championships, and I've read this list before, this is just since the year 2000. Among the national champions... And I didn't hear anybody, by the way, saying at anybody's NFL camp, man, I can't wait till Matt Mauck gets here.
I'm real high on him and Josh Heupel. Here we go. National champion since 2000, Josh Heupel, Ken Dorsey, Craig Krentzel. Ohio State, and I remember him. Matt Mock, Matt Leinart, Chris Leak, Matt Flynn, Tim Tebow twice, Greg McIlroy, A.J. McCarron, Stetson Bennett, Jake Coker, and Cardell Jones. Man, we can't wait to give this Jake Coker a shot.
Man, we're really thinking ahead to a couple years how he's going to turn out. The whole thing is bizarre that this guy is a central talking point in the future when he was drafted in the sixth round and nothing has happened since that day. I guess he got off to an impressive start in training camp.
I heard somebody on the radio talking yesterday, a guest, I can't remember who, honestly, who said, yeah, his first week, he really impressed people. By doing what? How he walked to the cafeteria?
Donnie. Football in shorts. You know who else impressed people? In that stage, Caleb Johnson. Yeah, he did.
Oh, they couldn't stop talking about Caleb Johnson. Right.
So that's just something else to consider, and those are guys that got picked –
second night of the draft you know not even midway through that third day right and people confuse my opinion with me thinking that will howard stinks i don't know but but the idea that he's a central talking point everywhere i turn about the steelers future at quarterback if i were a stealer fan would be downright frightening to me he might be a backup plan
I'd like to see him get some preseason work. I'm a little bit curious, but I was curious about Omar Jacobs. I remember writing a column about him. I think he came from Bowling Green. He was a curiosity, a talented kid. So was Dennis Dixon. St. Pierre. Landry Jones was taken in the fourth round. Josh Dobbs was taken in the fourth round. And I know Ben was here. If Ben wasn't here...

Chapter 4: What are the implications of Mike McCarthy's hiring for the Steelers?
Yeah. And when we talk first-round picks in hockey, it's not of the same value, I think, to be fair, as, you know, we're talking in football.
Right.
Where maybe there's a generational dude at the very top, but then – A lot of people will say it turns into a crapshoot after that, after the first couple of picks. Even then sometimes. That's a reason why we saw a ton, too, during the Jim Rutherford era where he would be trading those babies off left and right. He wasn't really worried about them, and it got them back-to-back Stanley Cups.
I would do that.
I hear you, and Tyler obviously would. He brought it up. I can't remember what Pomp said. I think Pomp said he would do it, and Limits and I said no. It made me think. I think it's a great question. I just can't give up on that kind of talent and future at 21 years old. I want Miroshov as my future goalie. I think he's going to be an absolute star. I do get it, though. I get the thinking.
Limits, are you with me on that?
Yeah, I am with you. I would not trade Miroshov. I just think that... For a team that has struggled with goaltending ever since Flory was taken by Vegas and Matt Murray fell apart, if you do have the anchor in net for the next 10 years, I just don't think you can give that up, and I think that Miroshev has that potential.
Me too, but believe me, the more I thought about it, to get a guy, this kid's only 26, Miroshev's 21, Robertson is 26, so I hear them. Give me another one, Limits, if you'd be so kind. All right, Donnie, we still have more to get to coming up next with Patrick Graham, seemingly going to be their defensive coordinator. I know you wanted to get a word on some of these other hires by Mike McCarthy.
Andy Weidel staying. We'll talk about that. But first, before we go, one other item. We're getting real close to pitchers and catchers reporting, my friend. February 11th in Bradenton. Limits and I are trying to combat your show so that we're the ones that get sent this year because I want to play golf in Bradenton.

Chapter 5: What are the Penguins' recent performance highlights?
Oh, my God.
Yeah, not like, oh, yeah, I hit a walk-off grand slam. No, the kid just hit me in the head.
Is that like when Harry Callas got hit in the far? Did anybody get a video of this?
I mean, we're talking, this is probably like 2004, 2005 when this happened.
Is that great?
