It was a tough day. A day where even the weather was hard on the players.

Mike Tomlin's first practice as the Steelers' head coach proved more than its billing when he put the team through what many believe was the most physical practice session at Saint Vincent College since the days of Chuck Noll.

Even former linebacker Levon Kirkland who was with Cowher from the get-go agreed it was rough going.

"That was pretty tough, pretty tough," said Kirkland who is spending this week as a scouting intern with the team. "I'm sure the guys who have been here under Cowher are used to a certain way. You do it that way it's kind of tough. Makes you wonder what the evening practice will be about."
