Do the Steelers have a realistic shot to win the division?
Gerry Dulac
9:57
Hey, they were 10-3 last season in December and leading the division over a Ravens team that was having an MVP season from Lamar Jackson. What do you think?

Good Morning Gerry... Do you think the Organization will cave to Cams demands?  Seems like it would set a bad precedence.. Safe Travels... Cheers
Gerry Dulac
9:57
No. And you are correct

Good Morning Gerry, are Lowdermilk and Leal on the final roster?
Gerry Dulac
9:58
It's not a slam dunk either way. Leal might be more in jeopardy than 92

Cleveland, Buffalo, Washington, Nashville all building new stadiums. Three Rivera lasted 30 years and Heinz/Acrisure will be that in 2030. Is a new Pittsburgh NFL stadium on the reasonable horizon?
Gerry Dulac
9:58
You mean, like 2030? All those stadiums are older than Acrisure.

Good morning Gerry! Was wondering what the injury is to Calvin Austin. Any news on his availability to start the season?
Gerry Dulac
9:59
They are not required to report injuries in the preseason and they've been quiet about what is wrong with Austin.

Vegas has Steelers ranked 8th most likely to win the AFC, basically meaning they'll miss the playoffs. Seems a little harsh given all the new faces. Do you have an opinion?
Gerry Dulac
10:00
If they made it last year, I think they are entirely capable of doing it again this year

Gerry, with the longer field goal attempts happening now, here is something ive always wondered.  Some of these long field goals barely make it over the crossbar.  Would it be legal to keep a player back at the goal post to try to jump up and block the field goal at the crossbar?  I know several of these players can jump that high if it was a ball that was going to barely make it over, but i have never seen this attempted in all my years watching football
Gerry Dulac
10:03
I've seen it attempted years ago, I think with KC's Morris Stroud, who was 6-10. But it's not legal to do so now

Hi Gerry. Is Logan Lee gonna make the team as a rotational D lineman and back up long snapper?
Gerry Dulac
10:03
He's going to make it as a DL, not a long snapper
Guest

Hi Gerry. If Herbig starts the season on IR does that open the door for DeMarvin Leal to make the team?
Gerry Dulac
10:04
He won't start the season on IR

I'm giving away my age here, but I remember the good old days when the Steelers would play 6 exhibition games + the College All-Star game. Everyone played and they went at it like a regular season game. How in the world did they all survive?
Gerry Dulac
10:04
How did any of us survive that. Dreadful

Morning Gerry. Great coverage of the black and gold, as always. Wondering about the Boswell 'hold in' deal ...did Steelers brass make it known to Boz he would not be getting a new contract resulting in Boston
Gerry Dulac
10:05
I don't think Boz is holding in. He kicked off vs. Tampa Bay

I believe the defense can be dominant this season, hopefully avoiding major injuries. My hope is that the offense can be better than average. My worry is that it may take time to jell as most starters have not and will not play until the regular season. Hope the rust falls off quickly. Your thoughts on the offense being ready for the Jets?
Gerry Dulac
10:06
You went from negative fears to positive hopes back to negative fears and back again to positive hopes. I'm getting a little worried.

Is Howard still out?  Or should we expect to see him under center for a bit on Thursday?
Gerry Dulac
10:07
He's not playing. Should be ready by the opener but they still have to make some type of roster decision after the way Skylar Thompson has played.

Good morning Gerry.  Say we go 10-7 and lose in the wild card round, what coaching changes do you foresee?  Very little like last year?
Gerry Dulac
10:07
How many were there this year after that dreadful finish??
Bill in LA
10:08
In reality, would you agree that 99.9% of undrafted players have no chance of making the team, and just are signed to serve as “fresh meat” for pre-season games?
Gerry Dulac
10:08
I would Bill. But there's always that one like Donnie Shell or James Harrison or, most recently, Jaylen Warren
Bill in LA
10:08
What are the fundamental differences between starters and back-ups on the Steelers offensive line? Weight and size all seem similar. Does it come down to speed? Brains? What makes the difference?"
Gerry Dulac
10:08
Talent
Jersey Danno
10:09
If Pickett gets cut by the Browns, any chance the Steelers bring him back to help out until Howard is 100%?
Gerry Dulac
10:09
You're kidding, right?

Hi Gerry. Do you have an update on Gabe Davis?
Gerry Dulac
10:09
No more than what I said earlier -- he was here for a medical followup, nothing more
Guest

With it being the last preseason game, do we even read anything into the outcome?  Whether we win or lose 30-0, it's just preseason...right?  Don't get too high or too low.
Gerry Dulac
10:09
Not at all, even if they lose 50-0
Jay
10:10
Good morning Gerry.  The drafting and developing has been bad the last 8-10 years.  The Khan/Weidel combo isn't much better.  Is it easier to say Tomlin is behind the bad drafting the more say he gets?
Gerry Dulac
10:10
I disagree with your assessment if you look at the past three drafts
