Hey Paul, is the next NFL draft strong for offensive linemen and do you see the Steelers drafting a center?  Happy New Year to you and yours.
Zeise

Oops answer first then question ha ha

Assuming the Steelers address OL & DL in the draft & free agency, what’s your thoughts on signing Marcus Mariota to compete with Rudolph for the starting QB job?
Zeise
3:00
I believe that Marcus Mariota is absolutely a guy the Steelers will at least take a long look at. It feels like their plan will be Rudolph, a Mariota type and maybe a rookie

Paul,         What are all the BenBoys going to do next year?  Find a new man crush?
Zeise
3:05
There is always TJ Watt!
Kordell

Masks and restrictions in Atlanta, or more or less open?
Zeise
3:06
Seems relaxed. They have some rules but don’t seem hard pressed to enforce them. I would bring a mask just in case

Paul, Neil Brown just finished his 3rd year at WVU with minimal success and awful bowl appearance on Tuesday.  Do you think he’d on the hot seat?
Zeise
3:08
I think next year he will be on the hot seat. He needs to get it done in a significant way next year or he is gone

Can a Northern City have a sustainable Power 5 Team, or has college football become a South and Midwest game?
Zeise
3:09
I think so. Ohio State is northern. They have done fine

Who is the ‘acting’ OC tonight?
Zeise
3:10
Tim Salem, the tight ends coach

Let’s say the CFP expanded to 12 teams. Pitt is #12 & draws #5 Alabama. The odds makers give Pitt a 12% chance of winning the game. Does Pickett or any other potential first round pick opt out of that scenario & choose the $ over the chance to chase a title?
Zeise
3:11
No of course joy if it is a playoff game they would all play
Guest

Are there any pending free agent offensive lineman who would be good for the Steelers to target this offseason?
Zeise
3:11
I would need to do some research on this. Ask me next week
Bernard
3:12
If Tuitt is mentally and physically fit to play next season, can he return to Steelers?
Zeise
3:12
He can but they need to move on from him. It is sad but he hasn’t been reliable

Earth Wind and Fire baby!
Zeise
3:13
It is good for your soul!!!
Blackout
3:13
Does the NFL still require a TV blackout in the home team's TV market if the game isn't sold out?
Zeise
3:14
You know I don’t know for certain but I am pretty sure that’s the case. The Ateelers are always sold out

Earth wind and fire! Always good the for your soul!

Would you prefer the Steelers win our last 2 games and maybe make the playoffs? Or lose our last 2 games and possibly move into the top 10 in next years draft? Thanks.
Zeise
3:16
I don’t think they get into the top 10. I just want to watch two good football games
Bud
3:16
If the Steelers by chance land in the top 10 of the draft next year, would you pick a QB (Pickett ?), or consider moving down to obtain additional picks if you didn't move down but maybe a couple of spots? Thanks.
Zeise
3:16
They might move down to get additional picks. They won’t trade picks to move up. They can’t afford to do that
3:17
OK all, I have to run. Thanks for jumping in. We will do this again Monday Night during the Browns-Steelers game!! Happy New Year
