Even if it's a bit early to think there was a lot to glean from the Steelers' first three full team practices of the 2013 season, there are still some tidbits to carry over into next week's second session.
Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger saw his rookie passer rating record fall this past season at the arms of Robert Griffin III and Russell Wilson. He gives advice to the rising stars.

David Todd and I discussed the Gaby Sanchez trade on our last podcast, and I again came out against it, with the idea being that it's difficult for the Pirates to draft stars, and a...
Looking at the positive influence Paul Martin has had on the Pens' power play.
Some notes around the Penguins this morniing- Daniel Alfredsson and Paul MacLean had different viewpoints last night, and are the Pens the most pressured team since the 2002 Red Wings?
A look back at 2010- where the Pens blew a 3rd period lead and went on to lose a multi-overtime game against the Ottawa Senators. Sound familiar?
The Steelers now-aged quarterback becomes the oldest player in his position meetings - an unfamiliar but readily accepted role on a team looking to rebound from a disappointing 8-8 season.
Polamalu is putting in the work at the Steelers' first round of OTAs this week in Pittsburgh. He credits a new physical therapist and avoiding getting stale as keys to getting back on the field this season.
Travis Snider's grand slam helped the Pirates come from behind to beat the Cubs, 5-4. The Cubs scored three off Wandy Rodriguez (who otherwise pitched well) in the second, thanks to a series of...

The Steelers are coming off one of their most active offseasons in recent memory. While the preseason of 2010 carried with it loads of negativity, that team turned into something great. Can the 2013 version mesh together in a similar way?
If Steelers legend Mean Joe Greene is in support of Ndamukong Suh, like he mentioned in an interview recently, it's a wonder what he thinks about Bengals LB and former Steeler James Harrison.
