How are you doing, Ray?

Thank you. Merry Christmas greetings to you, Rush. First-time caller. Second generation listener.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Great to have you!<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Over here in Salt Lake City today and just wanted to get your take on the NFL. I know you\u2019re Pittsburgh Steelers fan and so am I. I\u2019m actually second generation on that. My dad was a Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, resident. So I grew up loving the Pittsburgh. (sic) I have more faith in them. But right now, we\u2019re up against the Ravens next, and just wanted to see what your take was with them getting into the playoffs and just carrying on without JuJu.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: They\u2019re just gonna miss JuJu Smith-Schuster No. 19 for one game.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Ryan Shazier is out for the season, no doubt, and he was important. He\u2019s the best tackler on the field and he\u2019s the middle linebacker, captain of the team. Defense especially. What I\u2019ve noticed about the Steelers &#8212; and I have to be honest, Ray: I haven\u2019t watched as many games this year since the kneeling protests began. It made me sad. But the Steelers are my team. What I\u2019ve noticed about \u2019em is they play to the level of their competition and frustrate the hell out of me. I mean, they should have rolled through Green Bay and it took a last-minute field goal.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-257407\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/650-120817-Ju-Ju.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/650-120817-Ju-Ju.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/650-120817-Ju-Ju-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>Ditto the Bears. They lost to the Bears, one of the first\/early games. And Cincinnati? They really should have rolled over Cincinnati. It shouldn\u2019t have taken a last-minute field goal there either. Now they got the Ravens coming to town. The Ravens are not lighting it up on offense. Their offense is starting to come back. They\u2019ll rise to the occasion. The game everybody is looking forward to is a week from Sunday, New England in Pittsburgh. That\u2019s where Steelers fans still lack the confidence that the Steelers secondary can hold up against Tom Brady, and I don\u2019t know about that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I haven&#039;t watched as many games this year since the kneeling protests began.
