Morning Gerry!!! From what you have seen with this roster so far in camp, how optimistic would you be for the upcoming season if a 30 year old Ben Roethlisberger was going to be behind center?
Gerry Dulac
11:43
Not as optimistic as I was when he actually was 30 and they started 6-3. But they lost five of their last 7 in 2012 and finished 8-8. But, yes, it only makes sense that a 30-year-old future first-ballot HOF is much better than a second-year QB

Boz looking good? How about B. Mann? Is there a real competition there or just trying to push Harvin?
Gerry Dulac
11:44
Probably a little of the latter, But Mann has NFL experience, so he's not just an extra leg in camp.

Gerry... good morning sir! Would it surprise you if Washington started the year as the TE2 ahead of Gentry? Seems like reports have him having a really good camp.
Gerry Dulac
11:45
Yes it would. But don't get caught up in who is the second TE just yet. Washington will play and he is a better receiving threat than Gentry. And he is having a good camp.

I agree with you on Rudolph being number 3.  If that is the case why bring in a number four to take away reps from the others?  injury?  trade bait? all the above?
Gerry Dulac
11:46
Because Rudolph is on a one-year deal and if Tanner Morgan shows enough development, he could be the No. 3 QB next year. That's why

Do you think Aaron Rodgers makes the Jets a SB contender? I just don’t see it…
Gerry Dulac
11:46
Maybe. But they are the J-e-t-s

There is no comparing Pickett to Ben in my opinion. A rookie Ben Reothlisberger in the same situation last year with that team, they make the playoffs. Easily! Not saying Pickett won’t be great, but no comparison!
Gerry Dulac
11:47
You're right -- there is no comparison. Nor should there be. Maybe ever

i am intrigued by hakeem butler and his size and strength. do you think there is a chance he makes the 53
Gerry Dulac
11:48
There's a chance, but it's not good one. For every catch he makes, he drops one. Coaches don't like to see that

gerry, canu answer this ? Do the steelers regret there choice picking dull fading yellow seats in year 2000 when they built the new staduim ? do they regret PICKING THIS DULL COLOR ?  if u cant answer this can u ask managment this ?
Gerry Dulac
11:49
I'll ask them. What was it -- dull yellow????
Oh wait, you said dull fading yellow.

I see Gunner and Boykin rounding out the WR room. We know Tomlin prefers teams guys. What do you think?
Gerry Dulac
11:52
There's a good chance of that. That's how I see it, too

Better chance the Steelers start 3-0 or 0-3?
Gerry Dulac
11:52
It won't be 0-3

Ask them if maybe black seats would not be better than the fading yellow seats in year 2000
Gerry Dulac
11:53
Yeah, let's get those black seats so they really absorb the heat and are really hot in September.
AK
11:53
Do you think Dotson will make the team?
Gerry Dulac
11:54
It's still a decent possibility according to the people who know more than me about these things
SteelerSharp

Have you heard of any improvements coming to Acrisure Stadium for this season or the future. I know about the bathrooms, big deal.
Gerry Dulac
11:55
That's a big deal to some. Probably a lot
flhv2@aol.com
11:55
yes u are correct in black seats & heat in sept !,,,,, i point out ravens use purple seating !

Zeise was concerned about the WR room depth. The only concern I see is if Pickens and Johnson start moaning about the lack of balls thrown their way. What say you?
Gerry Dulac
11:55
Who?
flhv2@aol.com
11:55
thats good on barney comment !
Gerry Dulac
11:56
Lot of purple.
