The Steelers played their first game of the 2012 preseason last night; luckily for them they still have 4 weeks to get better. The Steelers came out to a quick 13-0 lead, but ended up losing to the Eagles, in Philadelphia, 24-23.

Former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jerome Bettis was a guest on the NFL Network’s NFLAM show and said that Mike Wallace simply doesn’t understand how the Steelers operate as a franchise.

Big training camp, preseason for the Steelers
To most observers, this the biggest training camp and preseason for the Pittsburgh Steelers in a few years. This goes a good bit further than that, though. This may be the biggest training camp and preseason the Steelers have ever had for a few reasons: a major coaching change has been made, there are multiple injuries [...]
Steelers Offense Game Notes Against Eagles
Below are my offensive notes from the first run through of the Pittsburgh Steelers 24-23 loss Thursday night to the Philadelphia Eagles. My defensive notes will be along next.
I liked the use of fullback David Johnson out of the backfield on the first 3rd down of the game. Johnson also had a few good blocks on the first drive before getting injured.
The opening drive the Steelers...

Steelers WR Mike Wallace To Show Up To Camp Soon
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports Steelers holdout Mike Wallace is working out in Florida with noted NFL trainer Tom Shaw and is expected to report to training camp in the near future.

Training Camp Has Become A Joke, And Injuries Are Proof
Not every team gets bit by the injury bug, but the Steelers last night resembled a MASH unit. They had more players limping off and on the field then anyone would really want to see. Preseason games are important, and training camp is vital. But since they made changes to what coaches can do during training camps, I can see where it can be a bit limiting.
