Welcome to BTSC’s Friday night open thread:
- We’re officially in the NFL offseason. Do you have a favorite part of this time of year? (Free agency, draft, training camp, etc.)
- Last weekend, we watched the two most successful teams this season compete in the Super Bowl. Do you have any takeaways from the game/each team’s run regarding what it takes to build a contender in the modern NFL?
- The Steelers finalized their 2026 coaching staff on Thursday. There are a lot of new faces. Who’s your early pick for the Matt Canada/Pat Meyer figure everyone will be mad at by midseason? Who’s your pick for the Mike Munchak figure everyone will be a fan of?
- Pick one option for 2026: Aaron Rodgers on a one-year, $20-ish million deal, Malik Willis on a two-year, $50 million deal, or Ty Simpson with the No. 21 overall pick.
- It’s Valentine’s Day weekend. Tell us how you fell in love with the Steelers.
- The Winter Olympics are going on right now, and I’ve become a lot more invested than I expected I’d be. Curling and downhill skiing have been some of my favorites to watch. Have you been watching the Olympics much this year?
Bonus: My song rec for the night.
