    Coach Mike Tomlin said one thing he wants to see out of the Steelers' rookies tonight is how they handle the speed of the NFL game. It is, said one Steeler veteran, nothing like what they have encountered in practice. "The game is a whole different tempo," defensive end Aaron Smith said on what he learned his rookie season. "They would tell me it's going to be fast, and I would go, 'No way. I'm going as fast as I possibly can in practice.' But it goes fast."
