Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are expected to rest George Pickens against the Philadelphia Eagles. Christopher Carter and Alan Saunders explain why that's the right idea. Pickens' star power abilities will be needed in the more important AFC battles to come against the Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals. If he re-injures his hamstring trying to rush back against the Eagles, it could doom the Steelers' season.
Also, it's time for Stars and Skulls grades, where Chris and Alan go over a strong performance by the Steelers' offensive line, linebackers and the most two-star grades ever given out for a single game. And of course, a big nod towards the captain, Cam Heyward.
