Show Notes
Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise considers coach Mike Tomlin's options in his defense's secondary, ahead of an NFL Week 12 matchup with the Chicago Bears. This show is presented by FanDuel.
Should Darius Slay be benched in favor of red-hot James Pierre at cornerback? Or does it make the most sense to stick with the battle-tested veteran opposite Joey Porter Jr. Especially considering his gaudy contract? Where does Brandin Echols belong in the conversation? And with Slay starting this week either way, how long should Tomlin and DC Teryl Austin continue to stick with him if he struggles?
Paul tackles those questions, plus the latest with the Aaron Rodgers injury situation.
