Just watched steelers safeties working the titans game and came away almost as impressed with Edmunds as I was with Fitzpatrick.  We need players like Edmunds to do the dirty work - blowing up RB screens and getting off blocks at point of attack.  He is underrated, and that's fine with me.  Do you think the steelers will offer him enough to stay here?
Zeise
1:31
Edmunds actually played really well the other day. He made some big big plays for them
Geno

Hey Zeise, how about ceasing and desisting on your hope Geno gets hot and trade him plan?  I've done a ton for this city, all with class.  You run a silly chat for snarky and bored yinzers.
Zeise

You will look great in a Blackhawks jersey.

Hey Paul, was that your daughter doing color on the ACCN broadcast of the Pitt women's game? She was very good!
Zeise
1:32
Yes and thank you so much. She seems to enjoy doing those games as well
Blackhawk Bob

Do you think Najee Harris will last long enough to run behind an offensive that can run block ? That guy makes 3 people miss to get 3 yard gains
Zeise
1:33
He gets hit so much I worry about it. I mean a guy can only take so many hits before his body breaks down

I understand why Pickett and many others don’t want to take risk and have opted out of their teams final games. But, if I’m an NFL GM or coach building a team, I want a leader who will put his team and teammates first. That’s especially true for a quarterback.
In looking at the best young quarterbacks, it looks like all of them played in their teams final games. Admittedly, a couple (e.g. Burrow, Mack Jones) were playing for a championship but many others (e.g. Mahomes, Jackson, Josh Allen, Herbert) were not. So, should that be a consideration for the Steelers as they go looking for their next franchise quarterback?
Zeise
1:33
I think if you watch Kenny Pickett play and come away with the idea he isn’t a leader, you are watching the wrong kid

Agree it is early for next season predictions. And of course no idea what happens in a season injury wise etc. But to your point in losing a close game to Miami for Pitt. if Pitt is picked to win to Coastal and they did lose a close game to Miami then I don’t think it is stupid to say that would  be a disappointment.  (I guarantee for some Pitt fans it would a fireable offense for Narduzzi for under achievin..and that would be stupid.).   At least for next season it is looking like Pitt could be the huge favorite in the Coastal and since they got there this year and won ACC anything less is a step back.
Zeise
1:34
If Miami is better who cares who picked who and what in the preseason?
D Haskins
1:35
Are the stories of my arm strength legit?  Could I have made that 30 foot throw in the end zone that Mason botched?  Lastly, you got me or Mason on your 2022 fantasy roster?
Zeise
1:35
Your arm strength is not the problem. Your work ethic is apparently the problem
Hogan

So you put the sticks in storage until the robins arrive, or will you hit a few solid shanks if the weather allows?
Zeise
1:36
Nope I may try and get out and play on Sunday

Brad Johnson , Trent Dilfer win SB , O'donnell gets to one and has a chance to win.
Wrong button. Can the Steelers get to a SB with Mason  Rudolph if the other pieces are in place  by using the draft and cap space for next season
Zeise
1:36
Not with this defense and offensive line. They would have a hard time with any quarterback winning
Ryan
1:37
good afternoon Paul big game against the chiefs on Sunday  i think Najee gets first touchdown what do you think merry Christmas Paul
Zeise
1:37
I always make that bet on same game parlay - Harris first touchdown
Mercury
1:38
Did Cowher assert anywhere near as much control over his defense as Tomlin?
Zeise
1:38
He probably did at times, that was baby
I hear things Joey
1:38
With opt outs becoming more common, isn’t it time to admit the Bowl system is broken and establish a playoff to keep guys engaged? Also, wouldn’t it be a good idea to hold off on the Heisman until after the bowls?
Zeise
1:39
I’ve been saying the bowl system is broke for years. We just have finally got the right mixture of guys opting out and things of the such to expose what a farce it is.
Jock Sutherland
1:39
You forgot about Theo Bell on your Mt Rushmore
I hear things Joey
1:39
I don’t agree with a couple premises expressed earlier. On the off chance that Tuitt comes back and AluAlu is ok, the defensive line is suddenly not a problem. Plus JuJu could be back when he sees how low his value is on the open market.
Zeise
1:40
Why would you want JuJu back? What exactly does he bring? You can’t rely on Tuitt and looking at Bush do you really think Alualu will definitely be the same player coming off a major injury?
Mark
1:40
If Kenny Pickett is available, should the Steelers draft him?
Zeise
1:40
Yes they need a quarterback, so why not?
Mercury
1:43
Great answer to the Mt. Rushmore question. I’m certain the Steelers would be the toughest team in all of sports to pick the four best faces to carve.  You’d need at minimum 3 mountains.
Zeise
1:44
I hate Mt Rushmore’s because there are way too many right answers.
Elf on the Computer

Paul- Santa wants to know if think you've been good or bad this year ?
Zeise
1:44
You know that answer!
OK I have to run. Thank you so much for a great year of chats! We will do it again Sunday for the Kansas City game!! Merry Christmas
