Deebo & Joe - Part 2: NFL Power Rankings + Brandon Marshall GOING VIRAL

**Joe Haden** (0:00)
It's blatant disrespect, Deebo. Blatant disrespect. Right now, I'm with the Steelers. I'm on the Steelers side. The good thing is, they're coming from, everybody's underestimating them. It's good, though. It's good, because they're gonna go out, they have to go out here and play still. You know what I'm saying? So them saying the defense is being old and all of this stuff, forget what they talking about.
We got ballers. We know what we got on the defense side of the ball. We know TJ Watt is ready to come back and prove that he's worth that bread. We got Nick Herbich. He knows that he wants to show dudes he's a top five pass rusher in the league. So he got his time to come eat. Alex Highsmith, he knows he's trying to go get another bag. He deserves, he feels like he's better than Herbich. All these three dudes, they feel like they should be top of the top. So we got all you under contracts, go show it, go do it. Let's see what's up.

**James Harrison** (0:52)
Listen, it's easy to show it.

**Joe Haden** (0:55)
No, I'm just saying though, understanding Odebo with the secondary. We got the coaching staff, we got the players. Thank you, Joe.

**James Harrison** (1:02)
What did we see when we were sitting there the whole time, Joe? When we were sitting there watching games, when we call each other and text each other and we're watching games, what are we talking about? We're talking about breakdowns. We're talking about technical positioning of guys doing the same thing over and over that is completely wrong. So they have to be taught that to do it because it's not just one guy doing it, there's multiple guys doing it.
You can not beat bad technique, horrible alignment and assignment, or point blank period, like it's just a un-gap sound defense.

**Joe Haden** (1:36)
I'm just trying to figure out too, 10 and 7 last year, one of the division, understand Joe Burrow was out, Lamar Jackson missed time. They didn't get, as I don't feel like, but the Ravens lost the offensive linemen.
The Bengals, their defense, they lost Trey Hanson. He went to Baltimore. They did get my big man for the defensive tackle, but like, it's how much better did you really get? Now we're gonna have to go see, you're gonna have to play the games, but the Steelers still at the end of the day, won 10 games, won the division, have the same quarterback, got the same players. I feel like the offensive line got better, the defense, we got a better corner. We got another, we signed Sean as a cornerback, just in another year for everybody to just grow. So, the disrespect for the Steelers is, I don't understand it. You know what I'm saying? Is it, oh man, is it because A-Rod's a little older? Is it because they think the-

**James Harrison** (2:30)
It's because A-Rod is older, that's what they saying. You got this out of him last year, what makes you think you're gonna get any different? Because we're gonna get more from the rest of the team. They will be coached, they will be taught, they will be actually put in positions to succeed.
Yeah, yes.

**Joe Haden** (2:48)
Schemes, game plans. We're running-

**James Harrison** (2:49)
Thank you.

**Joe Haden** (2:51)
We're-
I understand it. We're standing ahead of the sticks, we're up, the defense is being able to pin their note, being able to come after the quarterback now.
Difference, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm excited about it though, because just looking from it, me and you were thinking the whole time, off season moves were going great. We just were worried about the quarterback. Now we got A-Rod coming back to a better squad. So now, okay, let's see what the hell is going on. We don't have to worry. No, we got the players. Now we had our QB. Everything was cool at first when they was putting us back way deep, because we didn't know who was going to be the quarterback. We didn't have Wil Howard or Drew Alder. I'm like, okay, we can chill, we can see about that because we don't know. We've never seen these dudes play. But we got A-Rod now. We know exactly what A-Rod can do. Coming off, he knows it's going to be his last year. He's locked in with his coach. With the better players, with the receivers, with the line, with the running game. Like, I'm just excited to see. I think we have a full team, offense, defense, special teams. Everybody plays well. We're going to be right there.
