7 wins 9 losses?
Gerry Dulac
10:32
Nah
DT
10:32
would you give George Pickens a second contract?
Gerry Dulac
10:32
Let's wait and see
jimmybigticket
10:33
is Beanie Bishop the answer at slot? Does Pat Pete come back?
Gerry Dulac
10:33
Waaay too early to tell.
Ryan
10:33
Gerry What do you Think About Beanie Bishop jr i think with Sutton suspended he does a good job in the slot cornerback Spot
Gerry Dulac
10:34
Well, they are certainly taking a look at him now to see what he has. But they at least know they have Sutton for the second half of the season.
Scott
10:34
Last reports about Cole Holcomb recovery were cryptic and along lines of a more complex injury.   What is the latest status and as their best  LB from last year do you think he’s on target to get back in 2024?
Gerry Dulac
10:35
I don't think anyone is holding their breath. That's why they signed Queen and drafted Wilson
mrbig
10:35
what do you think of the new onsides kick rules?
Gerry Dulac
10:35
Don't like it
Jake
10:35
Time to trade a 7th pick to NE and bring JuJu back?
Gerry Dulac
10:35
Bringing JuJu back not a bad idea at all
Deb

Do you envision the team signing Cam before start of the season or is this his last season with us?
Gerry Dulac
10:36
I don't envision them signing Cam before the season.

Is there anyone else on the Scheffler/Schauffele Tour worth watching?  The PGA and LIV need to find a way to have the world's best golfers all compete against each other in the same tourneys.  Otherwise, why bother watching? Let LIV players pay entrance fees to PGA events and vice versa, something, anything to strengthen the fields.
Gerry Dulac
10:36
Bingo

Hi Gerry. Are we (fans) and some media making too much of WR2? There aren't a whole lot of playoff teams with 2 really good receivers. Tight ends have come to replace the 2nd receiver on a lot of teams. I do believe a really good quarterback can make an average receiving corps look great. So back to the original question, are those of us who are concerned making too much of it?
Gerry Dulac
10:37
Did you happen to check Kansas City's WR corps last season? Not very impressive at all. But I think they did OK.
Mark in Alaska
10:37
thanks for the chat! Do you think we will bring in a highly skilled WR for WR2? Omar can’t be content with that WR room as it’s towards the bottom of the league.
Gerry Dulac
10:37
I don't think it's toward the bottom of the league when you have a talent like George Pickens

Good morning Gerry.  I wanted to ask about the new kickoff rules.  I read that where it has been used that the kicker ends up being involved in 25% of the tackles and that it is a disadvantage to kick the ball through the endzone.  Is there any thought as to using a different kicker to kickoff other than Boz for this to avoid getting him injured?  Perhaps a special teamer with a good leg?
Gerry Dulac
10:38
No. But I can tell you Boswell is not involved in any of the tackles.

I've noticed a lot of celebrities and high profile Steelers alumni on social media at camp. Was it like this 20-30 years ago? Seems like a possible distraction when they need to be working on a new offense. It also seems to be in contrast with Art II talking last winter about urgency.
Gerry Dulac
10:39
It is not a distraction.
Coach
10:39
How different does the offense look?
Gerry Dulac
10:39
Hard to tell right now. Need to see a real game
Steelforce
10:39
Still believe Steelers are looking at cut candidates and not in the trade market.  What about you?
Gerry Dulac
10:39
They ALWAYS look at cut candidates. That is nothing new.
Say Hey Kid
10:39
Say hey Gerry ,  how many wins this season?  Place in North?
Gerry Dulac
10:39
More than 10.
Frank

Gerry, do you believe the Steelers are going to trade for a bonafide #2 receiver? If you had to guess or at least from what you’ve heard.
Gerry Dulac
10:40
I've said all along it wouldn't surprise me if they did. But I don't think it's any more or less a possibility than it has been.
New Era Steel
10:41
Hey Gerry… great reports from Latrobe as always. Question on the first and second year players - who seems to exhibit the most leadership skills?
Gerry Dulac
10:42
First-year players typically don't assume that role. They're just trying to fit in and earn respect. But, to your question, Broderick Jones perhaps.
GM
10:42
Hey GM Gerry, we have a lot of volunteers on the team this year, it's kind of refreshing.  With that said, who's getting paid to be here beyond this year?
Gerry Dulac
10:42
88
10:43
OK kids, time to head to practice, so gotta run. Thanx for the questions
Connecting…
