WATCH: Will Brian Flores' departure hurt the Steelers defense?

On the Wednesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, Post-Gazette sports writers Christopher Carter and Brian Batko discuss the news that Brian Flores is leaving the Steelers to become defensive coordinator for the Minnesota Vikings. They also tackle colleague Gerry Dulac's report that the team would like to hold onto backup quarterback Mitch Trubisky. And later, Chris analyzes the Penguins' big win over the defending Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday night.
