    Today's the first practice in pads. Backs on Backers never disappoints. :D

    I started this thread early to give a heads up that the Steelers practice will be on NFL Network for the first hour today.

    As far as NFLN's coverage goes- hard to say. As far as the events at practice today- first day with pads team drills- 11 vs 11, backs on backers. Not sure what time they'll be running what, or what will be shown live.

    Yeah, great coverage. I'm glued to the TV. :facepalm:

    Terry Hawthorne is out today. Cortez Allen out again, too. Not sure of others, yet.

    They're doing kick fielding drills right now.

    Edit- Van Dyke out, too.

    Yeah, that was a joke. I'm 90% positive the footage of Jarvis Jones came doing drills came from mini-camp.

    All I really saw was that Ben can also fill in as a ball boy.

    Backs on Backers starting up.

    "LeVeon Bell twice vs Woodley. Woodley pretty much schooled him"

    Backs on Backers session over. Team drills going on now.

    Some tidbits from the backs on backers:

    "All told 4 meetings between LeVeon and Jarvis, including to end the drill. Bell's height gives him problems, Jarvis w leverage"

    "Not a great backs on backers for Baron Batch. Several guys used quickness to get around him. Also scrummed w Marshall McFadden after big hit"

    "No surprise. Le'Veon gets the most reps in backs-on-backers w/ 11."
