I do not. Doesn't mean they shoudn't.

Hey Gerry - get your crystal ball out - What year will the Steelers get a new HC?
Gerry Dulac
2:48
I don't have a crystal ball.

Not saying Ben should come back — but do you think he has more
Gerry Dulac
2:50
Yes I do. Did you happen to see that offensive line he played behind? Or had to run plays from a coordinator who had never done it before in the NFL?
Ghost of Cecil Espy

Not saying Ben should saddle up for another year — definitely time to go. But to your eye, did he have more left in his arm / legs / body than Peyton did in his final year? I think in the right situation he could’ve succeeded.
Gerry Dulac
2:50
Absolutely he did. It was almost painful to watch Peyton try to throw an out pass his final season.

Gerry, let me rephrase:  If Jameis Winston is let go by new oleans would you consider signing him to a contract.
Gerry Dulac
2:50
Nope. Not even as a backup
Leon

Gerry, all the dink and dunk and missed throws...are we just ignoring what was right in front of us? Maybe Ben was just shot
Gerry Dulac
2:51
I think you are ignoring what was right in front of him, as I just stated.

Gerry, have you heard any news regarding Tuitt coming back?
Gerry Dulac
2:51
All I can tell you is they plan of having him back.

How many more seasons without a playoff win can Tomlin survive? He has already matched the 50 year record for post season futility.
Gerry Dulac
2:52
That's a good question. It's crawling up on Marvin Lewis territory
Aaron Smith
2:52
Do you think we'll ever find out what exactly happened to Tuit this year? And do you think he'll be in a Steelers uniform next year?
Gerry Dulac
2:52
I think we know what happened with Tuitt this year.

Jim Leyland just blasted the MLB HOF for keeping b bonds out of the HOF.
Gerry Dulac
2:52
He is right!!

Gerry, do you feel coach Tomlin wants to call signals on defense because he feels he needs to?  If there is an established DC available do you think coach Tomlin would be interested?
Gerry Dulac
2:54
I don't think it's because he feel he needs to. He does it because he wants to and, apparently, thinks his way is better.
Rob

Gerry, could you see Tomlin doing what Sean Payton did yesterday assuming the qb situation isn’t great in a year or two?
Gerry Dulac
2:55
I can't speak for Sean Payton, though I'm sure he feels the same way -- Mike Tomlin will not run away because his QB situation is not the same without Ben.

Hi Gerry, Thanks for great insight into the team. How much time will the Steelers give Coach Tomlin to turnaround the team. Meaning playing in late January AFC Championship/Super Bowl games.
Gerry Dulac
2:55
Oh, 15 years maybe.

I never liked seeing Franco in a Seahawks uniform or Webster in a Chiefs.
Gerry Dulac
2:55
Neither did Dan Rooney. And you're telling me this because...????
jay

Gerry Keith Butler was also a very good linebackers coach, do you feel good about the next guy?
Gerry Dulac
2:56
They will have to hire an OLB coach, no matter who becomes the next coordinator. All the candidates appear to have secondary backgrounds.

"Two of my first three picks would be D-Lineman."  I love it! And I just ran into ARII at Eat 'n Park.  He's says he wants you to interview for the GM job.  Interested?
Gerry Dulac
2:58
I told him I'm not interested.
SteelcityCB
2:58
Hi Gerry, Thanks for all the chats. How many years do the Steelers give Coach Tomlin to right the ship and be in contention? Meaning, AFC Championship and Super Bowl caliber play.
Gerry Dulac
2:58
Uh, they've given him plenty already

Why all the Mason hate? If they get the o-line fixed then Najee should be the focus. Just need Mason to not screw things up.  I think he will be more than fine...
Gerry Dulac
2:59
Agreed. He's Neil O'Donnell. You can win with him ...until something better comes along

Do you think Chris Boswell will get an extension this off-season?
Gerry Dulac
2:59
He should. You can argue he's the best kicker in the league

Hi Gerry - after the success we saw in the playoffs with mobile QB's running offenses, will the Steelers still feel good about trotting Mason Rudolph out there if he wins the job in camp? Or will they look for a mobile QB in the draft/FA to add to the camp competition?
Gerry Dulac
3:00
I think you will see them add a QB for sure because they are losing one with Ben. And, more than likely, it will be a guy who can move.
Tim

I agree with your draft philosophy - DL 1st and 3rd, OL 2nd.  I might add draft a WR - they are pretty good at that especially if Juju stays to mentor. I also agree with a high end center in FA. Is there enough money to get a solid ILB and CB in FA as well?
