00:00Yeah, outstanding. 29 of 38, 414 yards for Russell Wilson. Three tutties. He did throw
00:11one pick and he spread the ball around to everyone. Pickens, Friermuth, even Naze and
00:16Warren each had 50 yards receiving off of some screens.
00:20That pick was a pass interference, a horrible miss call. The guy tore Pickens' head off
00:26and then had a pick six hizzy. It was a terrible miss. Everyone knew that was pass interference.
00:31He yanked his head and yanked him to the ground.
00:35Yanked him to the ground. So that was the only blemish for Russell on the day. But he
00:39had plenty of these and that's tutties, including to my man, who you know I love putting on
00:45the anytime touchdown board. And that is Friermuth on CBS.
00:51Second down and five. Wilson steps up. Wilson avoids it. Throws on the move and finds Friermuth for the touchdown.
01:00Russell Wilson extends the play. And then hits Friermuth with a strike for the score.
01:10The Birdmen, you know, I think they have started to capitalize on this guy's talents. Friermuth,
01:17I never thought they threw the ball to him enough, Mike, in the last few years he's been there.
01:22And now all of a sudden he's become a key to their offense and they're giving him the ball and he's scoring tutties.
01:28Coming up big on third downs, making plays. They have to keep going to him. He's a big receiver.
01:34I love Washington as well. He's enormous and he's 300 pounds and he runs over people.
01:39Yeah, and I think that just a part of that is Russell Wilson continuing to get to work with him, right?
01:45Like the more weeks, the more time goes by, the more comfortable he is with these guys,
01:50especially guys like Big Friar. He's going to be OK. Of course, we always love Mike Tomlin's words of wisdom,
01:57not just heading into the weekend, but after a big Steeler win. Here is the coach.
02:03You know, it's always a challenge. You know, the intimacy of these divisional relationships.
02:10We know them. They know us. But I just thought our group, you know, smile in the face of it, particularly Russ.
02:17You know, it's the first time for him going through this AFC North football.
02:21And then I thought he acclimated himself to a well today.
02:25He put himself squarely in the history of these series and this series with that performance today.
02:31Man, we're thankful for it. I mean, you know, the bottom line is, is that if they're in a shootout,
02:38we know what he's capable of. If they're down in a game at the half, we know what he's capable of.
02:46This guy can strike in droves all over the field and in the end zone.
02:52And it makes him dangerous. The Steelers having a quarterback that can do what he can do.
02:58And that guy, Tomlin, knows that he's like this guy is the one that I wanted starting.
03:05Tomlin was the one that said, I'll go down with the ship if I'm wrong.
03:09But he's our starter. And look what's happened to this team since he took over.
03:13I mean, they score way more points than they did with fields.
03:17They still use fields in real bizarre fashions. One play here and there.
03:22It's Russell Wilson's team. That's just all there is to it.
