Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
I'm sensing sabotage in my midst. There's no Bob here, which has nothing to do with that. Although, why is Bob not here? It's a Tuesday. Limits?
Chapter 2: Why is Bob not present today?
Maybe he's at the hypothetical Tomlin news conference today. I guess.
I thought that was the excuse on Tuesdays. Well, that was legitimate because he hosted the Tomlin News Conference. He was the emcee. And if you need an emcee out there, well, Larry Richard or Bob Pompeiani is your guy. Is there an event in Pittsburgh that's not emceed by one of those two men? Honestly, probably not. So why isn't he here then? I don't know. Do we know he wasn't going to be here?
He's never been here on Tuesdays, typically. Because of that?
Chapter 3: What is the significance of the Tomlin news conference?
There is no Tomlin. Tomlin's not here anymore. Well, in the summer, he's typically not here on Tuesdays either. I haven't even done a summer with Bob, have I? We're both off the whole summer. That's true. Then in the meantime, Limits, you're extremely distracted today. Unbelievably distracted. You're playing old music for the show. I heard you last night. I heard you last night.
You had a good show on, even though you didn't show up to produce this show. You had your own show. You weren't here either. Yeah, I know. I'm off.
You took the day off and I took the day off.
No, you didn't. You worked last night. So you worked last night. So I worked and you did it.
You're trying to bash me for working.
No, I'm not bashing you for working. I'm saying that you're starting to rise in the ranks. You're seeing a little crack. Oh, stop it. A little crack in the door. And now with this show, there's sabotage in my midst. And I'll tell you why.
You're just trying to make a big point here.
The lazy show opening for one with a terrible song.
Lazy show opening? With one of the songs that just appears on our rotators here in the Rolodex.

Chapter 4: How do distractions affect the show production?
A lot of thought you put into that. I try to spice it up for you. And then I asked you for a listing so I can have it in front of me. And I don't ask you for much. I hardly ask you for anything. I ask you sometimes for a clip. I said, can you print out a list of the coaching openings and who's been hired? And you didn't, but you texted me one. I did. And you didn't include Robert Sala.
And you didn't include Robert Sala for the Titans. You have that as a blank. So you wanted me to go on the air and start reading these and be wrong about it. Well, that's why you're the savvy old newshound. There's sabotage in my midst. I can feel it.
I feel it all over right now. Limits. Maybe the excuse is that your friend Limits is a little bit under the weather over the last couple of days, and that's why I didn't produce the show yesterday. But you did your own show at 6. You couldn't have been that much under the weather. If I did two shows, that would have been a lot. I would have been completely gassed by the evening show.
All right. Let's get started here in spite of all this. By the way, I have quiche for lunch. Is that any kind of party foul? Do you like quiche? I've never eaten quiche. Bacon? It's just, I mean, it's pastry. It's cheese souffle. You've eaten cheese souffle, haven't you? I don't know. No, you don't know if you've eaten it?
I guess not, then. I'm excited for Tim's Corner Market subs today. Yeah, that will be fun. That's what I'm looking forward to.
Let's talk about Steelers coaches' limits. This is getting ridiculous in here. All right. What are we supposed to make of Mike McCarthy being reunited with Aaron Rodgers, potentially? I heard the morning show talking about this for a little while. Is this is this for real? Could this actually happen? I mean, first of all, before we get to anything else.
I went back to research this this morning and found headlines like this one from CBS Sports dot com. Aaron Rodgers apparently had toxic 13 year relationship with Mike McCarthy when McCarthy was coaching. And it goes back to the day he was drafted.
When McCarthy was working for the Niners, which, of course, is Aaron's hometown, basically, and it says was influential in them taking Alex Smith over Rodgers. And that began their relationship. Now it went to some very good places. And I don't know, sometimes you can't believe what you read. I get it limits, but it didn't seem like that was a marriage made in heaven.
And it seemed to end poorly. And it seemed that Rogers was the guy who kind of wanted McCarthy out. Am I wrong about that? I don't think you are. No, that's the way that I understood it. So there's going to be reunion and everything's good. And we're just going to run it back. Like nothing happened and like neither guy left Green Bay? It's just going to be Green Bay 2.0 here?

Chapter 5: What are the potential quarterback options for the team?
If they go with Rudolph? Yeah. I see a possibility where they do go Rudolph, Howard, and then maybe they draft somebody in the fourth or fifth round.
Just take a flyer on somebody with all the picks that they have. Seriously. Maybe Drew Aller as a fifth-round flyer, a fourth-round flyer.
As long as they stay away from Carson Beck and Cade Klubnick.
Well, there's also people you could trade for. Oh, limitless wonder. Like Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray? No, thanks. Gino Smith? No, thanks. Who are the other ones out there to trade for? Why can't I remember them?
Those are basically the big two that are going to be the most logical pieces to go.
Is Kirk Cousins tradable for?
Probably not because, well, I mean, he's tradable for, yeah. But does Atlanta want to do that with Penix up in the air with his injury?

Chapter 6: How do injuries impact quarterback trades and drafts?
He's going to miss at least the first couple weeks of the year. And with Stefanski, are they going to try to win immediately? I would think so. So they might keep Cousins to be a veteran presence over the first couple weeks.
Well, now I can't find the tradable quarterbacks. I just had this up limits. Can you find that, please? No interest in Kyler Murray?
No.
Are people calling? And why don't you ever update me on whether people are calling?
Yeah, here's our guy Harry in Westview to chime in. Hi, Harry. Hey, guys. Let me shut my radio off. There we go. Hey, Joe, what do you think about bringing back quarterbacks like these guys that were on? Try to draft a quarterback that was highly rated coming into the season and might have just had a crappy team.
Well, that's interesting. I was thinking about this last night, listening to a radio show that was starring a man named Austin Bechtold.

Chapter 7: What are the implications of the coaching carousel on team performance?
Get out of time.
Yeah. I know the guy. He's really good. He's really good. You were good last night, Limits. I will say that. Thank you, Joe.
I saved up all my energy and got a lot of sleep for last night's show.
Seriously, though, that's an interesting question because maybe we've overcorrected the other way on this draft class. It was supposed to be great. Then it was highly disappointing to the point where is everybody just written off? Or are there some guys out there who are victims of circumstances, as you're suggesting? Maybe Drew Aller is a guy like that. I don't know.
Limits, do you think he's draftable right now?
Yeah, I think he's draftable now. I asked Pomp while you were off the same question. So this is like Pomp versus Joe. Pomp's response was, it's based upon the results, Harry, and what they do out there in their performance.

Chapter 8: How does the conversation reflect on the Penguins' current season?
So you're taking a different stance against the Pomp.
Wait a second. What did Pomp say?
He said it's based upon performance during their college years. If they weren't good during their last year, then that kind of makes it less likely of them. But then he also said that I wouldn't be surprised to see these guys picked in early like they were going to be originally. I like when I put Pomp versus Joe. I never did it before.
All right. I was just talking to limits. Listen, I don't know that I'm disagreeing with Bob. I appreciate that.
That's what I mean.
I agree with both of you. What? I don't know that I am disagreeing with Pomp. He's saying that it's ā I don't know what he said. I wasn't listening. Was it all results-based? I don't know. I didn't hear Bob's show except when I called in at the beginning yesterday.
All I'm saying is there could be a quarterback or two out there that's still really talented and might have a really good pro career but was a victim of his circumstances in his last ā Drake May had a disappointing last year at North Carolina. How does he look now? You know what I mean, limits? There could be a guy out there
That may still be a very good pro that just had a crappy team this year.
Drew Aller with his offensive coordinator that ended up going back to Kansas because he couldn't get any other job.
