He played. Not sure how many snaps , but I know he saw a few.

Following up Ray on tackling... I don't agree that a player is either a good tackler or not... we were taught how to tackle correctly in the 5th grade... put your eyes on the belt buckle because that won't change... and wrap the runner up... these guys simply aren't doing that. So yes, a damn tackling coach is needed!

What are you thoughts on Fitzpatrick after the first game with the Steelers.  Seemed pretty good to me.
Ray Fittipaldo

Yes I thought he was really good. Looked comfortable. Played fast. I think he'll only get better.

Hello Ray. Thanks for the chat! In your opinion, can the team finally get it together and play a complete game Monday? Your opinion matters...I live in Cincinnati and need to know if I should take off from work next Tuesday...thanks.

Ray, was it just me or did you see Pouncey looking a little slow this year.

None of the offensive linemen have looked very good.

Ray,you really need to look at tape of Barron. Some writer did an article and included clips and he was really loafing. I would of cut him right after the game if it was up to me.

Hi Ray,  back in 2004 there was the same panic as right now?
Ray Fittipaldo
2:56
Back in 2004, the Steelers were 2-1 after three games en route to a 15-1 season. So there was no panic at any point of the season.

Love the chats. Helps keep my blood pressure in check. Is Benny Snell ready to play a few downs on Monday?

3 carries vs. the 49ers. Seems like they're game planning a bit for him. So yes, it's possible.

Lamar Jackson will run for 200 yards if they do not get their act together and soon.

What's your thoughts on the defensive line constantly rotating?
Ray Fittipaldo
2:59
I understand the rotation to a certain extent. It was hot in Santa Clara. But I don;t agree with some of the timing. For instance, at the end of the third quarter there is a long break. Alualu and McCullers were in the game and they remained in the game at the start of the fourth. That's a natural built-in break. They should take advantage of that and play their starters at the start of quarters.

That's all the time I have for today. Time to write a little. We'll do another one next Tuesday. And I'm predicting it'll be after a win.
