Steelers Day 6 training camp practice open thread

Le'Veon Bell walked away holding all the unofficial Camp Hero award for the day.

Will he be wrested from his throne by today's biggest challenger, outside linebacker LaMarr Woodley, who, possibly for the first time in 20 months, is drawing positive praise from fans and media types?

It remains to be seen, but our ability to drum up drama is second-to-none.

Admit it, that's why you come here.

Steelers Day 6 Open Thread starts...now.

Hey Ra'Shon, umadbro?

Going through some tape I do believe Shamarko Thomas called Dick LeBeau "Coach Lambeau." It's OK, I once called Sunny Harris: "Ramon."

Even Pouncey got a few punt return reps.

#Steelers spending a lot of time on special teams in camp. They were a real problem last year, of course.

Finally, Plaxico Burress and Jerricho Cotchery have some real veteran competition.

Sorry, ladies. Mr. Hochuli had a previous engagement.

Probably out tomorrow, too, at this point.

Cortez Allen still out with knee injury for #Steelers

Need to sharpen the blade if you want it to do any damage.

#Steelers OLine getting lots or reps of outside zone technique/concepts in group drills.

I'm sure he's one proud papa.

These young men are not going out without a fight.

Derek Mote with a nice TD grab in the corner of the end zone. Justin Brown with a catch and run TD earlier.

And now for something you'll really like.

Interesting pairing after Woodley's dissent over pass coverage.

Jason Worilds and Jarvis Jones on field at same time at both outside LB spots

Let the Moans ensue.

Jarvis Jones just JJ Watt-ed Big Ben. Tipped a screen, hauled it in! #Steelers

— Michael Tanier (@MikeTanier) August 1, 2013

How peculiar. Coincidence?

Haven't seen Woodley out here today. 1st tm D has Worilds on RT side and Jarvis Jones at LT edge #Steelers

— Ken Laird (@Ken_Laird) August 1, 2013

Attention, NFL. You have been warned.

In the RB vs LB pass drill, Le'Veon cannot be covered.

— Bob Labriola (@BobLabriola) August 1, 2013

More good new from Labriola. Nice to hear something positive about Golden and DCS.

Tackling again in team drills. For the defense, Golden and Cromartie-Smith step up and make tackles at the point of attack.
