Aaron Rodgers has yet to take a snap in a game in a Pittsburgh Steelers uniform, but the veteran quarterback is already setting the tone.
During a recent appearance on Steelers defensive lineman Cam Heyward’s “Not Just Football” podcast, Rodgers spoke about how he reacted to seeing fellow quarterback Skylar Thompson take a hit and get knocked down during the early portion of training camp.
“And one thing, one really important moment, Skylar got knocked down early in camp. And I walked out there like, ‘What the hell just happened?’ I looked back and nobody was walking out there. And I told the line, ‘Don’t you ever let that happen again,’” Rodgers said.

Rodgers added that he instructed the linemen to serve as “policemen” whenever they take the field.
“I said, ‘We gotta protect each other. And you guys are the policemen out there on the field. You’re the big brothers out there. You protect everybody from DK [Metcalf] to me to whoever’s in there (at) quarterback or whoever’s in there (at) running back. I don’t care if it’s preseason practice, whatever. You gotta protect them.'”

Rodgers suggested he realized his message resonated with the offensive line after he watched another situation unfold several days later.
“The next time something happened about a week later, Zach [Frazier] was in there. Pat [Freiermuth] was in there,” Rodgers said. “If Zach’s in there, you know Mason [McCormick’s] in there. And then I saw Troy [Fautanu] going in there. And then Spencer [Anderson]. I was like, ‘That’s what it looks like.’ And I’m not talking about instigating fights. I’m just talking about backing your brothers up.”
On Monday, Steelers left tackle Broderick Jones offered details about what he’s experienced having Rodgers as a teammate.
“It’s a love/hate relationship at the same time. Because sometimes he’s playing, but not everybody’s on the same page,” he explained.
Jones also acknowledged the vast NFL experience Rodgers brings and praised the four-time league MVP for having “a good sense of who he is.”
“But it’s also good to have that bond within to have the understanding, ‘OK, he’s a vet. I know everything, let me make sure everybody else is good, and then we carry on with whatever is going on, whatever the situation was.’ Just things like that. But I feel like he has a good sense of who he is and who we’re trying to be and getting us where we’re trying to go.”
The Steelers play their final preseason game Thursday night against the Carolina Panthers. Rodgers and the Steelers will open their regular season Sept. 7 against his former team, the New York Jets.

Equilibrado de piezas
El equilibrado constituye un proceso fundamental en las tareas de mantenimiento de maquinaria agricola, asi como en la fabricacion de ejes, volantes, rotores y armaduras de motores electricos. Un desequilibrio provoca vibraciones que incrementan el desgaste de los rodamientos, provocan sobrecalentamiento e incluso pueden causar la rotura de los componentes. Para evitar fallos mecanicos, es fundamental detectar y corregir el desequilibrio a tiempo utilizando tecnicas modernas de diagnostico.
Metodos principales de equilibrado
Hay diferentes tecnicas para corregir el desequilibrio, dependiendo del tipo de pieza y la magnitud de las vibraciones:
El equilibrado dinamico – Se utiliza en componentes rotativos (rotores y ejes) y se realiza en maquinas equilibradoras especializadas.
El equilibrado estatico – Se emplea en volantes, ruedas y piezas similares donde es suficiente compensar el peso en un unico plano.
La correccion del desequilibrio – Se lleva a cabo mediante:
Perforado (retirada de material en la zona de mayor peso),
Instalacion de contrapesos (en ruedas y aros de volantes),
Ajuste de masas de balanceo (como en el caso de los ciguenales).
Diagnostico del desequilibrio: equipos utilizados
Para detectar con precision las vibraciones y el desequilibrio, se emplean:
Maquinas equilibradoras – Miden el nivel de vibracion y determinan con exactitud los puntos de correccion.
Equipos analizadores de vibraciones – Capturan el espectro de oscilaciones, identificando no solo el desequilibrio, sino tambien fallos adicionales (como el desgaste de rodamientos).
Sistemas de medicion laser – Se usan para mediciones de alta precision en mecanismos criticos.
Especial atencion merecen las velocidades criticas de rotacion – condiciones en las que la vibracion se incrementa de forma significativa debido a fenomenos de resonancia. Un equilibrado correcto previene danos en el equipo en estas condiciones de funcionamiento.
