What are Steelers fans saying about attending the game in cold weather?

We're back with more Pomp and Joe show on a frigid Monday in Pittsburgh. 412-928-9370. Austin, we've been asking people if they're going to go to the games, and some are, some aren't, but I know you have some callers to that degree. Yeah. People who may be on their way there. Our guy Jay in Columbus is going to the game. How about that? Jay, are you driving right now? Hey, good morning, guys. How are you, Jay? You're driving right now, right? Yeah, I'll get there around three. Got field passes, and the only thing that scares the living daylights out of me is Mike Tomlin and Artie Smith not going all out and throwing the ball down the field and trying to break the number one peanut brittle in all of professional football in half tonight.
Well, how about you? We just said the winds are going to be like 18 miles an hour. I don't know if that's going to affect the passing game. It may affect the kicking game. Who knows? I want to ask you about your tickets now. Are you a season ticket holder, or are you just somebody who goes once in a while? No, my uncle owns a bar, and one of his distributors gave us really, really good seats and field passes tonight. So you are going to miss it no matter what. I don't care if it was Snowmageddon or you're going to show up, right? No, this is like $1,000 each, and that's – So, Joe, Jay is driving from Columbus, and he's not going to miss the game no matter what the temperature was. No matter what. A dedicated man.
I do. I think there are a lot of people – well, I was going to say sell your tickets, but like I said, Crowley's brother said $20 apiece, so what are you even going to get for that if you don't go? Well, Jay has field passes, though, too, so he does want to miss that. I wouldn't want to miss it either, and I admire your dedication, Jay. Who are you picking? I think no way Mike Tomlin screws this up. 27-6. Mike Tomlin, Bob, we appreciate the call, has never lost. Safe travels, Jay.

How does Mike Tomlin's record impact Steelers fans' expectations?

Safe travels, a Monday night home game. How about that? It's funny how that works because Thursday the opposite happens. And they stink in primetime this year. I just don't understand how that works or what are the reasons for it other than, you know, players rise up. They get excited about this. They have their color rush uniforms on tonight. I often wonder that, too. Sometimes fans get really into the uniforms and superstitions about it. I love their, you know, I wish those were like the regular uniforms. I love them. The color rush, you know, the black and gold standing out the way they do. Bob, are the Dolphins any good or do they stink? That's another question I think is quite legitimate. Well, they were 1-6.
I think you have to give credit to them. They fired their GM, and ever since, things have changed. I don't know how that adds up for anything, but Mike McDaniel has survived, and not only that, he's got them right back into this. So I would imagine they're pretty high on what he's done, and what he's done has changed the way they played. They were careless with the football, making mistakes in the air, and they have totally almost taken the ball away from two. I mean, they have one really good win. The whole year. That's at home against Buffalo on November 9th. So that was over a month ago. 30-13, they rose off the mat. Since then, it's been the Commanders in overtime, the Saints by four, and the Jets.
And everybody beats the Jets. For all I know, Bob, this team absolutely stinks. Yeah, I mean, that's impressive to think of their only one win is against the Bills and everything else. But look at the Steelers. I think David Todd put out there today an interesting win total. They've beaten all the teams that are really good. And they lost to Cincinnati. But the teams that they have beaten, you know, New England included, Indianapolis included, Baltimore. Who else did they beat? Minnesota. Minnesota. Cleveland. You know, there are teams that had high expectations that were supposed to be better teams, and they beat them. You can argue that if the New England Patriots and Steelers would play again, that might be different.
