I would say Joshua Dobbs off the top of my, umm, head.
Jacob Emerick
2:24
Best place to eat in Pittsburgh that’s not Permanti?
Ed Bouchette
2:25
I rarely eat in Pittsburgh restaurants.
Jacob Emerick
2:25
Do you see Pittsburgh adding another professional sports team in the distant future?
Ed Bouchette
2:25
Someone told me today they were adding a pro woman's soccer team. If so, I'd say that's about it.

Hi Ed, thanks for all your work, you are my go to for Steelers news in Jersey. In your opinion, which was the most dominant era for Steelers linebacking corps? Blitzburgh in the 90's?
Ed Bouchette
2:27
You mean AFTER the 1970s with Jack Ham, Jack Lambert and Andy Russell?
Pammy Whammy
2:27
Good Afternoon Ed, Any details on Ju-Ju's injury and it's seriousness?
Ed Bouchette
2:27
He participated in some drills with his team in the last OTA, so it's not serious, whatever it is.
Ike Steelheart

Hello Ed, we enjoyed the time spent with former and current Steelers in Cancún, México.
Ed Bouchette
2:28
They have held annual camps in Mexico for quite some time now.
John Strange
2:29
Does yet another one and done this season put Tomlin on the hot seat?
Ed Bouchette
2:30
You need to read up on your Steelers coaching history. Start with Chuck Noll.

What does it take for you to block someone on Twitter.  Seems ridiculous that a sports writer would feel so insecure he would block people
Ed Bouchette
2:30
I block idiots who tweet in bad taste.
Brian D.
2:31
Thanks for the chat Ed. Who do you think has the best chance of stepping up and becoming a defensive playmaker this season?
Ed Bouchette
2:31
Jon Bostic at ILB. He must stay healthy, which he often hasn't been.
Ron
2:32
Ed, what do you make of ab ‘s comments today (or yesterday)? We’re you apart of that?
Ed Bouchette
2:32
Ray handled that and wrote a story that is now on the PG website. From talking to people who listened, they did not know what to make of what he said.
Scott Cook
2:32
I read articles from other Steeler websitesthat use your article as a basis for theirs.   Is that ok with you or are they “cheating”?  Seems like they are getting around the rules by technicality.
Ed Bouchette
2:33
That's what bloggers do who cannot or will not get their own stuff. It's the way of the world. We used to call them "columnists"
MDT
2:34
I hear Watt and Dupree are switching sides, is that true?
Ed Bouchette
2:34
They have in practice, yes. It may not be permanent, but they may switch on and off during games
Mark
2:34
We all know that Gerry would beat you in golf, what would you beat Gerry in?
Ed Bouchette
2:35
Number of years at the Post-Gazette
B.. Pile
2:35
Do you think it is appropriate for fans to say AB is the greatest WR in Stiller history, when he has not won a Super Bowl?
Ed Bouchette
2:35
Dan Marino did not win one either.
John MA
2:35
Do the Steelers have the option to not conduct OTAs or is it an NFL requirement?
Ed Bouchette
2:36
Not required. They don't have to practice during the season if they don't want to either
Bill
2:36
Why isn't Andy Russell in the HOF?
Ed Bouchette
2:37
Or LC Greenwood, or Donnie Shell, or Alan Faneca. Every team has a handful of players that fans cannot understand why they are not yet inducted. Russell has advocates who are trying as a Seniors nominee.
Joel
2:38
Ed- Any chance of Timmons getting signed with the Steelers?
Ed Bouchette
2:38
Boy, there seems zero interest in him throughout the league. I'd say only if there are injuries at that spot.
Ed
2:38
Do you think they would consider trading Jones if Rudolph shines in training camp.
Ed Bouchette
2:39
He'd really have to shine.
Cowher Power
2:40
Do you think Cowher ever coaches again?
Ed Bouchette
2:40
No, I do not. I believe he enjoys what he's doing.
2:41
Thank you for another great chat. See you July 24, the eve of training camp. Enjoy the summer.
