WATCH: Are Zac Robinson, Kliff Kingsbury interviews good signs for Steelers OC search?

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast presented by Mike's Beer Bar, host Christopher Carter welcomes former Steelers and Penn State standout Justin King to break down the Steelers' OC search so far. Are interviews by the Rams' Zac Robinson and former Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury good signs? Which would be the better choice between the two? And which other possible candidate deserve interviews?

Our duo tackles those topics and also looks at the team's secondary. What grade does Joey Porter Jr. deserve for his rookie campaign? What pieces should remain around him? And where should the Steelers look to add from the outside?
