The Steelers kick off their final week of training camp by closing the campus.

That won't stop us from discussing all things Steelers after a few days have passed since the preseason-opening loss, and in wake of the return of Bruce Arians Sunday to Pittsburgh.

Anyone want to establish an over/under for the amount of Arians-related signs we see at Heinz Field? How about the length of time Cris Collinsworth talks about Colts head coach Chuck Pagano getting a Steelers fan to take off his Mewelde Moore jersey for an Andrew Luck jersey at Colts training camp?

See, who says the preseason isn't fun?

We can expect the Steelers' offense to continue to be swinging left and right, maybe they'll throw to a tight end this week. Maybe not. In an effort to not reveal too much, offensive coordinator Todd Haley is asking his players to simply execute the basics.

Fair enough. Let's just hope they do better than 3.3 yards a play this week (2.2 if you take out Chris Rainey's touchdown and Jonathan Dwyer's 33-yard scamper).

What else is good, Steelers fans?
