The St. Louis Rams wrapped up another day of practice on Friday under an oppressive sun that dialed up the temperature for their first day in pads. On hand to watch the affair was Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon. As for what transpired on the field, the offensive line is still leaving fans concerned. Bradford was sharp, but according to Will from Rams Herd he lacked his deep touch on the ball.

Head coach Jeff Fisher was, overall, pleased with how his team handled the temperatures.

"I thought they pushed through it," Fisher said. "This is the first hot day with shoulder pads. The last time we were talking about the heat we didn't have pads on and it's certainly a difference, but they pushed through it. I eliminated one period. We'll pick it up tomorrow. You get a sense when enough is enough. They push, push, push and I didn't want to push them too far."

Once again, we have a long list of observations from folks on the scene at Friday's practice. Be sure to check out the full list of tweets from the day's work, and definitely make sure to follow these folks on Twitter.
