Who knows what was said behind closed doors? I do know when he arrived Ingram said "he's like a kid in a candy store" here. I'm guessing he now thinks the Steelers are a big piece of black licorice.

Canada's offense is coming along a little bit.  reason for optimism?  we are going to need more than 15 points soon
Ray Fittipaldo
1:43
Definitely reasons for optimism with the running game. But you are right. They need more scoring. You can win only so many games in the teens.

Wouldn't a replacement kicker have to clear Covid protocol and therefore not be available for Monday night?
Ray Fittipaldo
1:43
No you get through protocol within a few days if you're vaccinated.

Why do so many people think Banner is the second coming of Larry Brown? He barely won the starting job last year then immediately got hurt.
Ray Fittipaldo
1:44
Right. Nothing against Banner, but it's not like there is a long resume there.

Daniel Jones = Baker Mayfield. Neither will take their team to the top. Agree?
Ray Fittipaldo

Not unless things fall perfectly. All kind of QBs have won Super Bowls so you never say never. Nick Foles, Joe Flacco, etc. It can happen. Just not a high likelihood.

What do you make of the referees saying that they saw nothing to penalize on the helmet-to-helmet hit on Boswell. He got clocked! They do COVID tests; how about a vision test?
Ray Fittipaldo
1:46
Yeah not a good moment for young Hochuli. I think he was distracted because it was chilly and he couldn't show his guns off. Threw off his entire game!
Tom

did we see more 2 tight end sets?  seemed to help the running game plus they both can catch.
Ray Fittipaldo
1:47
Yes. It worked on Sunday. Doesn't mean it will work every game. There are different game plans and different matchups every week. But I liked what I saw from Gentry. He's much improved.

Why was there no personal foul flag for a late hit on Boswell?  Seemed quite obvious to me.
Ray Fittipaldo
1:47
The referee missed it.

The Steelers all time record vs the Bears is abysmal in Chicago, not sure in Pittsburgh but it isn't  much better, iirc.
Ray Fittipaldo

Tomlin is 0-3 against the Bears so I'd say he'd due.
Buster

Do you think the Pittsburgh working class mentality contributes to the frequent negative comments about Tuitt!
Ray Fittipaldo
1:49
I think it has more to do with the multi-billion dollar industry of the NFL and how much the players make.

What is your biggest concern for the team versus da Bears?
Ray Fittipaldo
1:49
Their seeming ability to blow at least one of these games every year.
Buster

Despite what you may think of Mayfield as a player and a person, you gotta admit his commercials are pretty good. The new one where he tells the guy the stadium security system password is 6 is hilarious.
Ray Fittipaldo
1:50
Wish I had his agent.
AZ Steeler
1:52
Do you think the Steelers might consider signing someone like Mitch Tribusky?
Ray Fittipaldo
1:52
Can he play defensive line?
1:53
OK thanks for participating today. We'll do another chat next Tuesday.
