Again I don’t know if he can make those throws consistently
Mooch

With the game on the line why pass it in endzone to Jones? Shouldn't Washington (who was open) have been the first option in any route?
With a backup qb, should the ball go to C
Zeise

I think Washington was the primary receiver and Hodges got greedy and tried to make a play. That was one of his biggest issues against the Bills - he tried too hard to make a play and didn’t rely on his teammates. When he follows the plan he isn’t bad. When he doesn’t follow the plan he stinks
Dammer

Paxton Lynch was a first round pick, so he must have better arm talent than Hodges or Rudolph.  Why hasn't he been given an opportunity?
Zeise
12:53
Great question. He has all the physical tools to be a star. I was told he has not yet mastered the offense or some coach speak nonsense
Mooch
12:54
Why are we not relying on our best players with Duck as our qb? Shouldn't the Bills game have have been  a Conner, Washington, Dionte show? Don't get fancy just get the ball to the playmakers!
Zeise
12:56
Amen and Amen. I think it is crazy that Conner, Washington and Johnson were not on the field for the overwhelming majority of the snaps. They should be in on every play. This musical chairs of players is silly. Put the best guys out there

Did we see a little of the real Dupree this last game?  Its a shame this is the year things "clicked"  I, unlike most of the writers, do think a lot had to do with contract season and the payday awaits.  Yeah its an unfair accusation if I am wrong but I have yet to hear a compelling agreement as to how and why is this the "miracle" season.   if not then maybe we should look to draft players that don't take 5 years to get the system
Zeise

Well I know he has shown he can be a dominant player. I guess it is a crap shoot to figure out whether it is real or just inspired by a a contract year. If I’m the Steelers I bet on him but I could see your point, too

I do not know about you but I am really enjoying this year. With all the close games and playing better than expected I think in the long run this had made our team better as we get into next season . What are your thoughts?
Zeise

I actually love this season. For starters the addition by subtraction comes in play in terms of likability. The team losing some players that weren’t easy to root for makes it very different. I like these guys, I really do. Also the games are ugly but never boring that’s for sure!

Is JuJu back this week? And if so, how much can we expect from him?
Zeise
1:07
Yes it sounds like he is getting himself ready to play. As for what we can expect, I don’t know what he really gave them  when he was healthy. He has had a very disappointing season. I hope he can give them more than he has but I wouldn’t count on it this first week baxk
1:08
Well that’s it for us thanks so much for all the questions and let’s do it again next week
