Does McClendon get one more year, or has someone done enough to take over his spot role?
Gerry Dulac
11:14
I think you mean McCullers, and I don't think anyone has shown enough to unseat him

Tuitt was a beast against the Titans, but I don't know if he was playing against a first-teamer or a second string guy. Do you know what level of talent he was dominating?
Gerry Dulac
11:16
He had back-to-back dominating plays on the first two plays of their first possession, so it was against their starters. And he forced a quick throw a couple series later with a QB pressure in which he used an inside spin move on LT Taylor Lewan, the highest paid O-lineman in NFL history.

Does Marcus Allen make the team if Nat Berhe is cut?
Gerry Dulac
11:19
That's what we're going to find out. I think the Steelers were a little alarmed in the Green Bay game when one of their receivers, Jake Kumerow, ran past Behre on a long touchdown. Speed was lacking.

Switzer better than Henderson?
Gerry Dulac
11:19
Of course. Henderson has showed nothing so far.

In your opinion have Adeniyi, Samuels & Thomas made the 53?
Gerry Dulac
11:20
Samuels yes. And one of the other two for sure, maybe both. I'd keep both

Hi Gerry, Do you feel that there will be any real concern for another AFC North team challenging the Steelers for the crown in their division? Thanks.
Gerry Dulac
11:21
No, not really, though I never dismiss Baltimore. The Ravens are never going to go away. They have a quality organization that knows how to win.

No seafood and for the Pats game in December

If you're staying downtown, Meats & Potatoes, Lydia's, Vallozzi's, Eddie Merlot's, Carlton, Ruth's Chris. Bars -- Olive & Twist and any number of North Shore

Hi, Gerry. I know they won't (though I wish they did), but if the Steelers traded Bell for Khalil Mack, what position would Mack take over?
Gerry Dulac
11:26
Anywhere he wants. OLB

Gerry-when will you be releasing your 2018 prediction for the Steelers record?  Have you looked back at how accurate you've been over the years?
Gerry Dulac
11:27
I've been pretty close to what I've predicted for the most part. I said 12-4 last season, with a little luck, 13-3, and they were. This year, I'm saying 11-5, 12-4 with a little luck, and win the division.

How has Bud Dupree looked this camp, given that he has switched sides? Are you expecting a big season from him?
Gerry Dulac
11:27
I'll let you know during the regular season when he goes against the best LTs in the league. We shall see.

Hey Gerry, tough question today.  How do you pronounce “Fichtnner”?
Gerry Dulac
11:27
FIT-ner
Steeler bred
11:28
Will the Steelers reveal the Dollar Package vs the Panthers? Will Matthews make the team. He is super fast?
Gerry Dulac
11:28
They have used it some already. And I think he will. He just needs to learn what to do a little more
Bob

Is Eli Rogers going to stay on PUP?
Gerry Dulac
11:29
Yes, for the foreseeable future.

Big fan of yours and Stillers' fan for 60+ yrs.  I wish they'd keep Dobbs and move Jones.  Dobbs certainly has much more upside than leadfoot...
Gerry Dulac
11:29
Dobbs upside won't be here, not with Rudolph. And why get rid of Jones now? He has one more year and will sign elsewhere after that. Jones is a good backup QB, trust me, better than most in the league.
Cburg Stiller

So when they were discussing Switzer with Oakland, do you think there was even a brief side discussion of Mack?
Gerry Dulac
11:30
Who knows??
11:31
If there was, it probably went like this...
11:33
Raiders: "You like Mack?" Steelers: "Yeah." Raiders: "What you gonna give for him?" Steelers: "Marte, Malkin and Primanti's chain." Raiders: "No thanx."
Ok kids, that's all the time we have today. Chat next week when the games start to count.
