Brooks' release was a surprise. Does this mean Maulet is safe, or will they be on the lookout for another CB after rosters are cut to 53?
Gerry Dulac
11:29
Brooks' injury issues forced his release. And it likely means Maulet will make the team because he's a good special teams player too. Don't over-react now, losing Brooks isn't like losing Minkah Fitzpatrick.

If TJ is not signed before the start of the season, does he hold out and not play or does he "play it out" this year and become a free agent next year?
Gerry Dulac
11:29
He will sign
Mercury

I see Ben and Rudolph will not be playing Friday. I guess that puts to rest any question of who the back up QB is?
Gerry Dulac
11:30
See how easy that was to figure out

2022 Bold Prediction: Big Ben wins MVP, retires as SB Champion and beats ARod's Packers 31-28. What say you?

Morning, Gerry!  Is Hersh M (the poster who complimented you) your neighbor, or cousin, or someone who lost a bet to you????  Wondering minds want to know!!!
Gerry Dulac
11:31
Just a true, honest, insightful, intelligent reader I suppose

I'm really torn about who the Steelers should keep in the backfield. McFarland Snell and Samuels have different skill sets and would be nice backups. Who do you want to stay and who do you think the Steelers keep?
Gerry Dulac
11:32
Yes they do, and you forgot Ballage, who is more like Harris. I think the odd man out is Samuels
bring back Hanratty
11:32
Do you have any sense as to when we may see  Tuitt play?  Tough situation and not one we are accustomed to seeing, thankfully.
Gerry Dulac
11:33
Tomlin would not give a timetable today when asked.

When the Steelers scan the waiver wire after the final cuts, what position would they most likely address? OL DB or ILB or OLB?
Gerry Dulac
11:33
The only one of the 4 you suggested is DB. The others are not even a possibility.

What do you make of Green seemingly getting bulldozed frequently? Does he have the ability to withstand a bullrush or is it going to be a consistent problem?
Gerry Dulac
11:33
Who says so?
Buzzz
11:33
Who do you think the fifth WR will be. Sexton?
Gerry Dulac
11:34
Could be. Still think it will be McCloud...for now

How many snaps, if any, have they lined up with a FB in the backfield this summer? It doesn't seem as though Canada has more interest in using Watt than Fichtner did.
Gerry Dulac
11:34
We have seen it more in practice than in games.
Denny
11:34
Gerry, do you think there's another story about Brooks behind the curtain?
Gerry Dulac
11:34
Nope. Injuries.
Mercury
11:34
Why are the Steelers loathe to cut someone who was drafted in the top 3 or 4 rounds for a few years, even if he is obviously not going to be the player they thought he could be?
Gerry Dulac
11:35
And you are referring to...??

Gerry does sexton replace Ray Ray on punt returner this year or does Ray Ray come back
Gerry Dulac
11:35
See above answers

Do the schedules in the AFC North look as tough as they seemed when they first were announced?  What number of wins looks to be a likely division champ.  I don't see anyone getting to 12 again.
Gerry Dulac
11:36
I do because that still means 5 losses. But I won't be shocked if 11 wins the division.
Petey

do you sense they’re looking to add a veteran corner after other teams make their final cuts? To me, CB seems just as thin as OL; they lost Hilton and Nelson, Sutton taking on a much larger role, and they didn’t do much to replace them. An injury there could really hurt them. A veteran addition would help.
Gerry Dulac
11:36
I'm not going to argue with you. That's still a possibility
Utah Jim
11:36
Any insight to how long the starting OL will play Friday?  They could sure use the work.
Gerry Dulac
11:36
I'd say no more than the 1st quarter
Utah Jim

What do you think about Gentry adding some weight and moving to OT?  He certainly has the height and the great Larry Brown started out as a TE.
Gerry Dulac
11:37
So you want to move him to tackle?? I like what I see of him at TE
Ernie Lazelli The Crime boss

The stinkies need help or they're doomed. Think Cleveland playoff game only a whole season of that play. If they dont get another corner and OLine help well then. Se Acobo Yerry. Like the rooster little yerry steinfelds the Stinkers are Finito its a wrap. Fahgetaboutit. Its over Gerry the Hairdo Torchiano
Gerry Dulac
11:37
Could you please translate that??

Will there be a noticeable difference in the offense under Canada—e.g., will there be more play action, running, plays form under center, passes more10+ years
Gerry Dulac
11:38
Yes there will be !!
