Cowher Gets Pissed

**PITT23** · 08-03-2006, 06:44 PM

Coach Cowher made practice 15 minutes longer and made players do 40 pushups for dropping passes. Cowher getting pissed isnt something new though.

In other news, Ben once again says he feels great and is ready. Also, the charges against Santonio Holmes were dropped from an accident in Miami. Now he can concentrate on football all the time now.

Glad Cowher got pissed. I would to if they were dropping passes in a game.

Also, that's some good news about Ben and Santonio.

Yeah and I'm glad hes getting the intensity up even this early in the season. We cant have them getting lazy and thinking they're so much better than everyone else (even though we know they are) after winning the Super Bowl.

Ya, we've had that "we are the best" attitude before. I don't want to see that again!.....lol

That reminds me of that loss to the Pats in the AFC Champ. game after we went 15-1 in the regular season.

Holmes still has a court case pending. I do believe.

Hmm...really? I though both cases against him were taken care of now unless theres one I'm forgetting. Im not 100% sure so I could easily be mistaken.

Good to see he is turning up things. Will be of great help.

Just a little update on Ben. Looks like he is doing well. My main concern is how he stands up to getting hit.

Roethlisberger improved with his arm strength, and flashed the ability to throw on the run and across his body that marked his first two seasons in the league. Roethlisberger's most impressive pass came off a scramble when he zipped the ball to Ward on the sideline. He also feathered a deep pass between linebacker Larry Foote and Troy Polamalu into the arms of Quincy Morgan.
"Everything feels pretty good," Roethlisberger said. "My arm feels good. I feel like it's coming along well. It's better than it has been in previous camps."
Teammates in the spring had hoped that another year of experience would further the development of a quarterback with a 27-4 record in his two regular seasons in the league, but a June 12 motorcycle accident put those hopes on hold.
The Wednesday night performance eased any fears.
"He made some great throws," Whisenhunt said. "He made some strong throws down the field so it was exciting."
"The only thing now is if he gets hit. What happens then?" Ward said. "But Ben's a competitor, a warrior."
