Welcome back to BTSC’s Friday night open thread:
- The Senior Bowl kicks off on Saturday. Will you be watching? If so, which prospects will you be focusing on?
- The Pro Bowl Games also take place this weekend. Of the four Steelers who made the event as alternates — Miles Killebrew, Patrick Queen, Russell Wilson, and Isaac Seumalo — who was the most deserving?
- If you could add one event to the Pro Bowl Games to make it more watchable, what would you add?
- The Super Bowl is also coming up. If you could add one player from each Super Bowl team to the Steelers (Patrick Mahomes and Saquon Barkley don’t count to make it interesting), who would you pick? Once you make your picks, would they make Pittsburgh a Super Bowl contender?
- What was your favorite underrated play of 2024? One that probably won’t be making any highlight reels but deserves a shoutout — for example, mine is Kyle Allen’s only pass of the season being a 19-yard rocket down the seam, just for him to disappear for the rest of the season.
- We’ve talked a lot about bowls in this one, so let’s end with a food question. What’s the best bowl meal? Not a soup — think in the genre of meat and rice in a bowl.
BONUS: My song of the night. I discovered that Beth Gibbons of Portishead fame released a solo project last year, and it’s an excellent listen.
So, settle down for the weekend, share your food and drink of choice, and let’s talk some football.
