Multiple reports that Moore and Heyward and Buggs another time..got into some scuffles at camp. Good to see the T being aggressive.

Also Spillane had a one handed INT of a Rudolph pass intended for Ray Ray.
Green had the day off yesterday for personal reasons and the other 2 centers went down early with injuries. Hope they aren't significant. We need all 3 practicing.

Meh. Just an expression? Then why say it? It seems to refer that you believe Heyward is some locker room leader. My point was AB and Bell(just to point out the obvious players)have done their own thing. Heyward or anyone else for that matter just stood in the back ground with their hands in their pockets. The last I read that anyone ever said anything to AB was Ben during the video of Tomlin AB took and he was ignored. And Heath Miller telling AB to shut the **** up. This team has been missing the vocal player leader for a long long time now.

Sure. If you want a ******* sound bite.
Duh ... To EXPRESS myself. Because I felt like saying it.
As far as what you believe it refers, yeah .. Heyward is an acknowledged locker room leader. By coaches. By other players. LOCKER ROOM ... Not in the public eye. Which goes back to keeping things in house.
AB and Bell were Offensive players. While I do believe that there would be some spill over as far as being a leader. Heyward is a DEFENSIVE captain. Seems to me that the OFFENSIVE captain would be the first person you look at to reign those guys in. And, as you state, AB ignored Ben.
But, if you want your leader to make public statements, etc. You'll be happy to see the tweet from Brooke Pryor that I provided where Heyward publicly states that should Bush continue, "we'll reign him in".
Wait a minute . ... You want a "vocal leader" ... without "sound bites".
That's just rich. (another expression I felt like using).

You don’t get sound bites with “off the record” responses. Journalism 101.

This team has no locker room leader. JuJu did his tik tok **** last year. Bush doing his thing this year. And I didn't know a player on defense is off-limits to a player on offense.

LOL...yeah that is your thing. You stated a sit down from Heyward on Bush and backtrack as an expression. as far a the term vocal goes. Vocal as in reference to teammates, not the media. Heyward over the years has gotten his cliche sound bites out. Just like Tomlin. Another area of lack of leadership.
Either you're not as good at inferring someone said the opposite of what they actually said as you think you are, or you just don't read as well as you should. From my earlier post:
Note the reference to spillover as far as being a leader. That implies that Defensive Captains would/should times when they address issues regarding offensive players. But, as I noted, the Offensive Captain should be the first to reach out to/reign them in.
If you're going to say someone said or didn't say something, you should probably not make that implication where it can be disproven in writing.
Thanks for playing Skippy.
I had leftover brisket, scrambled eggs and wheat toast.

This was a very article, Seems Ben has lost his ego and is working well with his new OC

PITTSBURGH — The Steelers overhauled their offensive staff this past offseason. From the hire of Adrian Klemm as offensive line coach to Matt Canada as the new Offensive Coordinator, the Steelers’ offense will look much different this season.
For a quarterback who will be coming back for his 18th season, the shift from his previous offenses to Canada’s offense is drastic. Roethlisberger is meeting the challenge of learning a new offense head-on, however, and he is looking to execute Canada’s vision on the gridiron.
“There is a lot of new, in all seriousness,” Roethlisberger said about Canada’s offense. “For someone who has had a similar offense for a long time, verbiage-wise, it’s taking some extra studying. But it’s a fun new challenge and guys are getting it. Hopefully, it translates into winning football.”
While Roethlisberger is often used to shotgun-only play along with his own set of play calls that he loves to audible into on any given look, Canada’s new offense is certainly a shift from what he has done. Roethlisberger knows that the transition for him is going to be harder than that of the younger players.
“When you’ve had a very similar offense for 17 years and then something looks the same but is called something completely different, it’s very difficult,” Roethlisberger said. “It’s a big challenge, but that’s the game the game of football.”
As for what Canada’s offense entails, Roethlisberger knows that there will be different things that he has to do more often. On Tuesday, Roethlisberger gave a small glimpse into what Canada may be expecting from him.
“We’ve gone under center, we’ve got shotgun,” Roethlisberger said. “Yeah, he’s got more motions, but I feel that’s where the NFL’s kinda going right now with a lot of the jet sweep motions and stuff.”
Roethlisberger’s willingness and want to do things like go under center seems to be there as he is in pursuit of his third Super Bowl.
“I can go under center,” Roethlisberger said. “I never said I didn’t like it. We’ll be under center, we’ll be in the gun, we’ll move, I mean, we’ll throw a lot of different looks and schemes at people and see what works.”
There is certainly an aura of difference from Roethlisberger about Canada’s offense. He seems optimistic, and their discussions up to this point seem to be productive.
“We’ve had quite a few communications,” Roethlisberger said of he and Canada. “He’s come over, we’ve talked. I told him that I know this is your offense, and he’s like, ‘No, no, this is our offense.’ But I’m like, ‘No, it’s yours.’
“And I’m just really trying to do everything I can to be open to the new challenge and say, ‘OK, I’m learning, OK got it, got it.’ If something is confusing or something doesn’t quite make sense, I say, ‘Talk to me, tell me how I can better understand this or how I can learn this or learn the formation names or what is your trick to learning things.'”
Even with that, Canada has left the door open for his quarterback to have some input in the new offense.
“We just have been constantly communicating,” Roethlisberger said. “And he has been really good about, “Hey Ben, if there is something you don’t like, just let me know and we can talk through it or throw it out.” It’s just been communication. I think communication is key to anything, I’ve said that before. That’s what we have been doing and I think it’s going really well so far.”
How Roethlisberger adjusts to more play-action, under center, rollouts, and other such new things will be key to how well the Steelers offense will play this season. It is the beginning stages of the transition, but thus far, it seems Roethlisberger is buying in and up for the challenge.

History over the last 6 or 7 years. Players doing their own thing. Sure we get the sound bite from a few players now and then. a few here will hang your cap on them. Then something else will come. Tomlin plays it off. You must haven't been following the team the last half-decade Jack.

Yeah, I know what you stated. You covered your bases as Coach does. Irony at its best.

I generally think Albert Breer is good, but if this is all he was able to come up after a visit to Steelers training camp. Absolutely nothing new or interesting. Makes you appreciate local reports and "fan reports' from those in attendance.
