It’s the second day of pads in Latrobe and as i headed down the hill to the practice field from the dorms, a quick look at the Laurel mountains already spoke of a hot day coming up for the Steelers.
And as always my thoughts run to our oldest son serving in Afghanistan and the 100 degree [...]

In this drill the offensive player is forced to read whether the inside or outside linebacker to one side is coming. It’s [...]
