Najee coming back slimmer reminds me of something Leveon did before he broke out.  Could we see a resurgent Najee unlike any previous version this season/
Gerry Dulac
10:21
Yeah, maybe
The truth

Is Cam Heywards only leverage is that they don’t really have a surplus of quality defensive linemen? Benton I think will be good, but after that it’s a bunch of blah. Also does this reinforce that they need to take a defenwkce

Look, Cam isn't going anywhere. He is due $16 million this season and the Steelers are planning to pay it, barring some unforseen circumstance. Does anyone really think he is voluntarily going to walk away from that?

Hello Gerry. Thanks for taking my question. This one might be odd: What exactly did Trubisky do/say to Diontae that was so harsh that Tomlin benched him at halftime of the Jets? He won a QB competition and was treated like the starter for months so it must have been bad? I am just trying to fire out how Tomlin's mind works. I can't think of a time Noll or Cowher benched a player over a confrontation with a teammate, especially when the teammate started it.

I don't know exactly what was said, but Trubisky was reacting to being accosted by DJ in the locker room. And I don't think it had anything to do with what was said. But why he sided with his receiver and not his QB is a little baffling to me

Have you heard if Pompeani and Batch will be on the preseason telecasts?
Gerry Dulac
10:25
I haven't heard one way or the other

I know Arthur Smith is known for using the run to set up play action pass and get his receivers open that way, but is he known for having any other creative offensive designs? You're probably going to need more than just play action to get Pickens open if there aren't any other serious receiving threats.

I'm sure he knows what he's doing, more than you, me and anyone else who ever takes part in our chat

Do you place much importance in schedule difficulty based on what teams did last year?   Teams change so much in the off season; new coaches, coordinators, and different players, and last year;s door-mat might rise up and knock a good team down, and last year's good teams might crumble this year. I really think the Steelers are going to play well with the changes they've made; no matter the other teams last season's record
Gerry Dulac
10:26
Agreed, Tom. You never really know which teams might rise up or which might fall apart

Morning Gerry. Just wondering why all the hate for the QB room. People saying Steelers will only win 7 games. The QB has to be better than last year and they still won 10. I'm thinking 10 again or maybe more depending on how good the secondary is this year. Thoughts?

Hi..came across an old Ed Bouchette article and was wondering if you stay touch and how he’s doing
Gerry Dulac
10:27
I do, all the time. He's loving what he's doing
1MoreWR
10:28
Good Morning Gerry - think we’ll trade for a #1 or #2 WR? If GP were to get hurt we don’t have much there to scare our opponents? Why not make a move? A lot of other pieces seem to have fallen into place, but we could sure use 1 more quality WR. Your thoughts?
Gerry Dulac
10:28
I'm not going to argue and the Steelers have explored a number of possibilities for that reason.
Mr. Rooney

How do these new OL look in person.  Anybody stand out in stature versus your typical OL player?
Gerry Dulac
10:28
Big

Is the wr room that bad? Mims, Jefferson, Patterson, Wilson, Pickens, Miller + Friermuth at TE.
Gerry Dulac
10:29
No it's not
Mr. Rooney

Should i be concerned that KC is going to ruin my Christmas day cheer this year?  I'm excited for the matchup but a bit concerned about the mood if we lose.  suggestions?
