I’m not sure what NCAA infractions have to do with Pat Narduzzi.

Think the odds of getting more fans at Heinz are higher than going in the other direction?  Was hoping to see some late games played with crowds!
Zeise
1:10
I’m not sure because the case numbers are still going up. I don’t think anyone will budge until that trend reversed.
Lambert

I agree with your assessment of Pitt and the senior issue... Ford & Hamlin are the biggest posers out there, all the pre-season hype went to their heads... can these 2 tackle someone without dancing around like it's Mardi Gras?
Zeise
1:11
Those are two really good football players who I don’t know have been put in the best position to maximize their talents. I really don’t. I think both could and should be more impactful but at times are held back by their roles in the defense

That really good team aound Big Ben went 8-8 last year. Big Ben drives the train. MVP
Zeise
1:11
That’s exactly the point. They were 8-8 not 3-13.
No question about it
1:12
True or False ? Bob Nutting gives out Necco Wafers or just releases the hounds on neighborhood kids that come to his house to trick or treat ?
Zeise
1:13
This year Halloween fell on the weekend, me and Geto Boys were trick or treating, robbing little kids for bags......
Doyle37
1:13
Next year's draft...do Steelers draft a TE or LT with first pick ?
Zeise
1:13
Neither. They draft a running back
Robert J Nutting
1:14
Paul I'm trying to run save money on running my Baseball company so that I have more money to invest in things like my ski resorts. Should I run it more like the New York Knickerbockers or New York Jets ?
Zeise
1:14
No both of those teams waste a ton of money on bad to horrible contracts. You could pocket all that money with a much lower payroll and still suck as bad as the Knicks and Jets do!
Matt from LA
1:15
Although nice, it seems to me a little too soon to say that the Steelers are the king of the AFC? Now, if the beat the Ravens... Still, if you were up 6 against the Chiefs and Mahomes with a minute to go, who would you bet on?
Zeise
1:15
I’ve said it many times - I don’t see how you can bet against Mahomes in the playoffs. He is that good right now
The Happy Warrior

Is officiating in all levels of sports from HS to Pros the worst you've ever seen this year ?
Zeise
1:16
No. Once again, we talk about officiating way too much. Yes they miss calls but for the most part they do their jobs well
Matt from LA
1:16
Is there a reason why the Louisvilles, North Carolinas and Arizonas of the basketball world always seem to escape the NCAA police?
Zeise
1:17
Because the Louisvilles, North Carolinas and Arizona’s of the world make a lot of money for the NCAA
John Bach
1:17
I am SO with you on football uniforms.
Zeise
1:18
That just means you are an old guy like me!

Paul, what is all this talk about Pitt football is doomed to mediocrity and can't attract coaching talent?  I live near Orlando, and UCF wins with multiple coaches and not much better talent than Pitt has. And without Pitt's stellar history. The coach is out there, Heather just has to find him.
Zeise
1:18
I completely agree. There are a ton of great coaches out there. Go find one and stop making excuses
DJ
1:19
According to College Football News, there are 29 teams ranked ahead of Pitt whose coaches have been there less than Narduzzi's 6-year tenure, with 16 of them in the top 25, including  the likes of Louisiana, Coastal Carolina, SMU, BC, Purdue, BYU, Arkansas and Cincinnati.
Zeise
1:19
Again, he has to get better. The only question now is can and will he get better
DJ
1:19
Are we being unreasonable to expect Pitt to now and then get into the top 25?
Zeise
1:20
Nope Pitt should be a Top 25 team more often than not. It has the resources, facilities, academics and location to do just that. Pitt has just been horrible at tapping into those things
Fire Fire
1:20
Does Pitt fire its O- Line coach this off season ? Seems like he kind of deserves it
Zeise
1:21
I think there will be some major changes on the offensive side of the ball for Pitt in this offseason. If there aren’t, Pitt isn’t serious about improving
TomnIsolation
1:21
May I ask your age?
Zeise
1:21
I’m at the halfway point - 50
Dan
1:21
Tomlin or James Franklin for clock management?
Zeise
1:22
Tomlin is much better at that than Franklin and he is much better than he gets credit for being. Tomlin is a better game day coach than he gets credit for
What should I do ??
1:22
Should I get my cat a Halloween costume ?
Zeise
1:23
You know my policy on Halloween. Anyone - or in this case cat - who dresses up for Halloween beyond the age of about 12 needs to seriously re-evaluate their life.....
Joe Moore
1:23
If you were Pat Narduzzi which coaches would you send packing ?
Zeise
1:24
I don’t name names like that it isn’t fair. As I’ve said a few times, I would overhaul the offensive staff
Doyle37
1:24
I don't think the Steelers will draft a RB in the first round in 2021
Zeise
1:25
I don’t either but it sounded good. However if a James Conner isn’t given a contract extension which is very possible then I think they definitely could go running back in the first round
Guest
1:25
I highly doubt the chiefs or titans would be 3 and 13 without said players
