Good morning Gerry, have the Steelers reached out about Terry McLauren or do they have their eyes on free agent guys like Amari cooper or OBJ.
Gerry Dulac
10:36
They are always doing their due diligence

Gerry what do you think about the play of Skylar Thompson he looked good vs the Jaguars also what do you think about Max Hurleman i saw the story you Wrote i think he looked Good And i think he either makes the team or the practice Squad
Gerry Dulac
10:38
I was impressed and surprised by Skylar Thompson. He's going to force the Steelers to think a little harder about their QB makeup. And B Batko wrote the story on Hurleman

Hi Gerry,  Love your chats and insight. What has happened to Dale Lolley? Can't find him anywhere and miss his insight as well.
Gerry Dulac
10:39
Dale is around. I will tell him what you said.

Does AR play a series or 2 this preseason or do they hold him out to protect from injury. I assume he has a no contact jersey on today vs the Bucs?
Gerry Dulac
10:40
I don't think he will play. I think the joint practice today against TBay will basically be his preseason exposure.
Sunner in Orlando from Lebo
10:40
Do you believe Howard will start on the IR so that they can keep him around without exposing him on the practice squad or do they just release Thompson during last cuts?
Gerry Dulac
10:40
That's what we're going to find out. That might be the safest move

Will they make a run at Amari Cooper?
Gerry Dulac
10:40
He's sitting out there for a reason, ya know

Help me out to understand this Gerry, when a person signs a contract ie sign for what they think there worth at the time and then performs well per what they thought they were worth, how do you say ie Heyword that you have out performed your contract. That’s nonsense you signed with the idea that you would work hard and do your job !
Gerry Dulac
10:41
I can't help you. You expressed pretty well I'd say.

Do the Steelers save some mileage on the OLB's and ILB's by rotating in Sawyer Herbig Harrison and Holcomb more so than last year or do the starters play as much as possible. I hope they rotate more to keep them fresher down the road especially in December.
Gerry Dulac
10:42
They will rotate as always, especially with the improved depth they have

What is Dick Lebeau up to these days?
Gerry Dulac
10:42
Retired and golfing

Hi Gerry, I know we will see, but from first pre season game and camp, do you see any improvement in the running game?
Gerry Dulac
10:43
None whatsoever. Maybe the most disappointing part of training camp.
Sunner in Orlando from Lebo

Seeing Sanders play well for the Brownies, does any part of the FO regret not drafting him in the 4th round or would he have been too much of a distraction especially with Rodgers coming in?
Gerry Dulac
10:43
Nope
Fred
10:43
Aaron Rodgers like it here enough to stay around beyond this season?
Gerry Dulac
10:43
He's here for one year, that's it
Fred
10:44
Who is right in the Kenny Pickett -mike Tomlin feud?
Gerry Dulac
10:44
Didn't know there was one. But Pickett has nobody to blame but himself for what has happened
Fred
10:44
How worried are Steelers about Broderick Jones?
Gerry Dulac
10:45
They're not. The fans are
Sunner in Orlando from Lebo

Run game concerns me. Do you think they will be able to run the ball effectively enough to help the passing game? I have my doubts right now. I see Rodgers in a lot of 3rd and long situations which does not bode well for a balanced attack.
Gerry Dulac
10:46
You should be, though as I always caution -- it's the preseason. Let's wait until they start playing for keeps. I think you will see increased attention Sat nite on the run game

Will the Steelers have a sense of urgency on offense this season or will they have to be down 2 scores first like in previous Tomlin seasons?
Gerry Dulac
10:46
I don't think Aaron Rodgers will want to be patient
SoCal Jeff
10:47
Doesn’t the vocal confidence in the defense seemed misplaced?  It’s an aging group that is often injured come playoff time and gives up the most first half points in the last 10 years. Furthermore, the bravado is coming from the coach! Hasn’t Tomlin learned anything? “Unleashing Hell” hasn’t happened in over a decade!

Will Scotty Miller make the team?
Gerry Dulac
10:48
He could
jmacplaywright

I get the feeling that the season rides on Jones, Troy, Black and Harmon improving both sides of the LOS. You, Gerry?
Gerry Dulac
10:48
No, it rides on Rodgers, Metcalf, Ramsey and TJ. But I get your point
Cam
10:48
Hi Gerry thanks for doing these.  Cam question again (sorry).  It's been noted that he was asked to take a pay cut in 2023?  Did he actually accept a cut?  I don't recall seeing that it actually happened and why he would bring it up if it never actually came to fruition.
Gerry Dulac
10:49
I don't know where that came from or if that was the case. How could he go from being asked to taking a pay cut to signing a new three-year deal??? Doesn't make sense.
