Hour 4: Steelers Shock the NFL, Pro Bowl Nonsense, and “God Loves the Patriots”
Hour 4: Steelers Shock the NFL, Pro Bowl Nonsense, and “God Loves the Patriots”  
Podcast: Evan & Tiki
Published On: Mon Jan 26 2026
Description: Evan and Tiki react to the Steelers making a stunning pivot, hiring Mike McCarthy and ending the franchise’s decades-long tradition of young, defensive-minded lifers. They debate what it means for the Rooney family, whether this signals a new era in coaching philosophy, and how the quarterback dominoes could lead to Aaron Rodgers following the Favre script to Minnesota. Then the show takes a hard turn into pure insanity as the Pro Bowl somehow adds Shedeur Sanders, sparking a rant about how meaningless the “Pro Bowler” label has become. Calls roll in on officiating, the need for tech like a chipped football, and why the NFL never adjusts kickoff times even when weather is predictable. Evan also hits a quick baseball note with Harrison Bader landing in San Francisco, before the hour closes with a full Jets fan meltdown, a Mike McCarthy hiring regret spiral, and the ultimate coping mechanism: the only explanation is that God is a Patriots fan. Plus, a last-second cameo from the Roberts household to cap it all off.
