Pittsburgh native Michael Keaton was on “Late Night” with huge Steelers fan Seth Meyers on Wednesday night, so you know they talked football.

Toward the end of the interview Meyers said he feels good going into the season, but Keaton is a little more hesitant.

“I’m okay, I’m a little nervous, 39 ain’t young if you’re a quarterback but then you look at some people,” said Keaton.

But while Keaton is nervous, he can just text coach Mike Tomlin if he has any worries.

The “Batman” actor revealed that he has Tomlin’s number and told a story about texting him after Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa.

“He texts me back, I’m going, ‘why would you bother, you just won the super bowl, why would you take nine seconds out of your life to text me back’,” said Keaton.

Keaton then suggested the best idea I’ve heard in a long time.
He invited Meyers to do his show from Pittsburgh, to which Meyers responded they should do an entire week.

Who knows if this will ever happen but if he does, Meyers wants the Mt. Rushmore of “Burgh people” on the show.

We’re here for it if and when it happens!
