Breaking out a novelty offense just to get past one of the worst teams in the league.  Is a 4-12 season being generous?
Gerry Dulac
11:28
Whatever it takes

Is it time to rebuild to O-Line after this year?
Gerry Dulac
11:29
No but I think they have to be aware that Ramon Foster is not getting any younger. Which, of course, they are
Mike

Ravens pass D is terrible. Will the Steelers attempt to exploit that or go right back to dink and dunk?
Gerry Dulac
11:30
I haven't had a chance to see the game plan yet. Usually they present it to me over dinner at Ruth's Chris.

In your opinion, what are the chances that Good Ole Number 7 has played his last game in Pittsburgh?
Gerry Dulac
11:30
It's always a possibility when you are 38 and coming off surgery to your throwing elbow. But nobody who knows him and the injury thinks that is the case.
Tony Mozarella

Hi Gerry.  I'm the glass half full kind of guy, but after seeing Devin Bush play without training wheels and the new D backs making the pass D look a whole lot better, am I too optimistic thinking the defense can carry this team to a winning record and possibly the division title?
Gerry Dulac
11:32
I don't think you should go overboard with one game, but I agree that they will have to carry this team. I also agree they continue to get better each game

Steelers pass rush looked unstoppable versus Cincy. What changed from the first 3 weeks?
Gerry Dulac

I will point up the Steelers have led the league in sacks each of the past two seasons and are one the top sackers again this year. I will provide you the link to a story in today's PG how they are on pace to be the NFL's best sacking team in any three-year period since 1998. I don't think Monday night was an anomaly.  https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/steelers/2019/10/01/nfl-sack-leade...

Any word on if Paxton Lynch will be moved up to be the backup? Seems risky to be a hit a way from you know who.
Gerry Dulac
11:36
Not yet but I agree. I also think Devlin Hodges has a little Gardner Minshew in him

Over/Under for passes >10 yards vs. Ravens?

6

What chance Ben might have to adjust to a new Coordinator when he returns?
Gerry Dulac
11:36
Very little
Lauren

Big Ben's injury. Any word on what his actual injury was?
Gerry Dulac
11:36
Elbow (though I know that's not what you're asking)
Picksixlisberger
11:37
With the defense starting to take shape, and the offense taking a more conservative approach, can they go on a mad tear much the same as in Roethlisberger’s rookie year?
Gerry Dulac
11:37
Sure, that's how they did it then. But I think it's already too late to go 13-0.
Larry
11:38
Will the Steelers release Moncrief to get their comp pick back?
Gerry Dulac
11:38
It doesn't work that way
Renee

Ju-ju seemed to be almost non-existent Monday night. Is that due to coverages or Pittsburgh's inability to throw down the field?
Gerry Dulac
11:38
A lot of it has to do with coverages, how they rotate toward him and try to take him away.
Bryan
11:38
Dupree seems to be non-existent other than his 1 sack. Still getting manhandled regularly. Any chance they move 92 up to start or are we stuck with Dupree due to horrible contract?
Gerry Dulac
11:38
I don't think you're watching the same game
Bryan
11:39
Nelson doesn't get a lot of publicity. That's probably a good thing right?
Gerry Dulac
11:39
Absolutely. That's the best thing for a corner. He has been very good
Bryan
11:39
Mike Hilton got obliterated on 1 blitz. He seems so tiny. Any change they go with Sutton full time over him?
Gerry Dulac
11:39
Well, you see they are rotating Sutton in there in certain situations, most of those in passing situations.
11:40
OK kids, we're out of time. Thanx for the questions. Let's do it again next week
