Hgaru.   Has there been any talk about Navarro bowman from he Steelers management? And deep down inside do u feel they would like to pull the tag from bell but they simply just can’t?  Your thoughts thx Ernie in Ohio
Gerry Dulac
2:27
No on Bowman, except for just normal discussion on any available free agent. And Kevin Colbert has said they won't rescind the franchise tag once it is offered, so no to that as well

how much longer can Big Ben go ?
Gerry Dulac
2:27
We shall see. To me, no reason -- none -- he can't be very good for 2-3 more years

I hope LeVeon has a great year and we can win a Super Bowl, but am I the only Steelers fan who will not be sad when he leaves?  What happened to working together for a common goal.
Gerry Dulac
2:28
Actually, you are probably in the majority. His fan club is losing members
Theo
2:28
you dismissed that Jarvis Jones idea pretty quickly...he's still young, would be very cheap, and knows the defense. At least they'd look better for taking him in the first round if he finally contributed
Gerry Dulac
2:28
I'll dismiss it just as quickly again.

There's no way this team is set at MLB with Matekevitch and Vince Williams, they're either grossly over confident or are planning on some weird 3 or 4 safety formations, yes?
Gerry Dulac
2:28
That's the big yes!!

Since the Super Bowl loss to the Packers ended their 2010 season the Steelers have a total of 3 playoff wins. How is Tomlin not on the hot seat? Is 3 playoff wins in 10 years the standard?  Is that above the line or whatever gobbledygook?
Gerry Dulac
2:31
Another satisfied customer I see. John, I think Tomlin will really feel the heat this year because of what happened last year with the home playoff exit to Jax. Last year, the Steelers went 13-3 after making it to the AFC Championship game in 2016, so there was just grumbling about his missteps when the Steelers lost. Not this year. There will be full-blown fury every time the Steelers lose, and it will be directed at him
Craig

Whatever, I say we move on from Tomlin, the guy just isn't getting it done. Mangini is drooling for a shot at a roster this talented...
Gerry Dulac
2:32
You lost me at Mangini. Please.

I read VinceWilliams is old school, and is gonna have less to say on social media etc.. In his last game he is part of a defense that gives up 400 yards and a home playoff loss... And reports to TC carrying a title belt ??!! ... Your thoughts?? Thanks
Gerry Dulac
2:33
As long as people don't expect him to be Ryan Shazier or James Farrior, Vince is OK on the inside.

Gerry - haven't seen a word about Marcus Allen...any observations?  Thanks.
Gerry Dulac
2:34
yea, they like him. Good athlete.

Can you please ask Theo to explain why He thinks middle linebacker is Jarvis Jones’ more natural position?   He has been asking that same damn question for 6 years.
Gerry Dulac
2:35
Haha. I don't ask em, I just answer em, except for some of the really stupid ones.

I’ve been reading good reviews about WR -Damoun Patterson.  I know it’s early but do you see legit talent there?
Gerry Dulac
2:36
I don't know about legit talent, but he has stood out the first week of camp, if you're looking for surprise standouts. But Waaaaaay too early to determine if he can make the roster. His chances are slim.

Was it a coincindence that Bell missed camp but was finally healthy for the playoffs? I'm not super upset that he is getting an extra month off of hitting. Should some others players do the same?
Gerry Dulac
2:37
I suggest Le'Veon Bell come to camp and avoid the average plays he made last season.

Is the ILB position the most wide open? .. Does Galambos and/or Thomas have shot to stick in your opinion...or check back in a couple weeks? Thanks
Gerry Dulac
2:38
Wide open is not a good way to describe ILB. That means they have nobody of quality, which isn't far from the truth. Yes, Thomas has very good chance to make the team
Ginny
2:38
Of course Gerry bails when the questions get tough
Gerry Dulac
2:38
Tough? I call them stupid.

Can you think of a name of an UFA that has opened some eyes thus far ? Thanks
Gerry Dulac

Matthew Thomas. Jarvion Franklin, Chuk's teammate at Western Michigan.

I heard al shoe horn Bundy was briefly a steeler. I even heard he scored 4 touchdowns in a game for polk high. Any of this true? If it is wish we had him instead of leveon Bell.
Gerry Dulac
2:40
Al Bundy once was a Steeler in training camp
Ryno
2:40
I understand Bell not showing up for training camp in an attempt to avoid injury, but wouldn't it also behoove him to be there so he doesn't get off to another slow start? I would think he would look more valuable to other team's next season if he led the league in rushing or something like that.

That's all the time we have today kids. Thanks to those with the good questions. No thanks to those with the inane.
