Are You Ready for Some Football - Steelers/Bengals 2012 v1.0

[blackjack68]

Is this the beginning of the turnaround?

Gonna be tough with Troy out again.

Mendy and Redman both out.

Dwyer gets his chance to prove and redeem himself.

Steelers win by 10+.

Here we go Steelers!

[ajh2298]

Over/under on Ike Taylor pass interference penalties is at 3. Anybody want in on the action?

Bengals win +10.

[columbia]

If they lose this game: put a fork in 'em.

[the wicked child]

Road Game... not optimistic.

Spoiler:

I have good friends who will be there tonight to cheer on the black n gold. Chris Collingsworth should be in rare form.

[Eismann]

Road Game... not optimistic.

[viva la ben]

Considering they lost the last two road games by a fg as time expired, I still think the Steelers will win.

[Froggy]

what's the deal with all these road games so far? is this out 4th one in 6 games?

[penny lane]

oh, I knew Mike Adams when! Ha, ha! Shout to MCM!

This is a good point. McClendon's much better than Casey and Keisel appears to have gone downhill. Heyward deserves to split time with him.I don't see why Ike should be starting after his play this season either.
That being said ,their injury luck this year has been horrible but that's something you have to deal with if you want to remain a contender. It seems obvious that whatever they win this year will be due to Ben. I'd like to see them go no huddle a lot to keep teams from substituting. That'll help overcome their OL weaknesses.

Hey remember when you told me Ike didn't suck????

Ike Taylor sucks something fierce though so... I'll say he gets burned a lot tomorrow

The post about the over/under on Ike being burned is deleted. Heh, I didn't notice who made it.

Ike Taylor was the #1 CB against the pass last year in the entire NFL with something rediculous like a 34% completion percentage. Try again.

Do you watch football?

Do you watch football?

Did you watch the Denver game? Did you watch the Superbowl, the seaon before?

He gets exposed against any team with a respectable QB.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry when Stillers fans compare him to Darrelle Revis, Nnamdi Asomugha, or Asante Samuel

False information is false.

Brice McCain was the 1# CB in the league (According to that garbage stat) last year with a 30% completion percentage. There is like 5 other CBs in between him and Ike, Will Allen and Richard Sherman are two of them.


That stat sucks so hard... its like plus/minus in the nhl.

You try again.

EDIT x2

If you're gonna judge Taylor's career by two games and ignore the fact that he's otherwise been nothing but solid, you've got no right to call anyone else's arguments garbage.

Ike Taylor isn't Darrelle Revis, but he's a very good corner.

This.

He is a very good corner in the same way Ryan Whitney is a good defenceman.

According to FO (who I trust more than PFF, but both are subjective) Ike was targeted more than most elite CBs but top 10 in YAC, Success Rate and Catch Rate. Not sure why anyone would think he sucks. I feel like at this point I should just join in with everyone else and post whatever I want without bothering to check to see if it is true or not.

I BELIEVE THATS THE BEAUTIFUL FEELING OF VINDICATION!

Not that expect anyone here to own up to their folly, that would just be too good

Ike Taylor was good last year, this year he's awful...not sure how that vindicates you?

I'm not trying to get into this again because he clearly sucked and if you wanna argue that... then I'll exchange PMs.. but I won't do it in this thread

[columbia]

So then why did you bring it up?

[Godric]

So then why did you bring it up?

boredom and I wanted to throw it back into people's memories.

[skullman80]

....but you were wrong.. he has been awful this year, he was good/very good last year.

[Godric]

Anyone know if Andrew Hawkins is playing?

I agreed with statement prior to the first game this season that Ike was a good CB. I still stand by that. He's been awful this year and should be replaced to see if Cortez can play better. If that makes you tingle with vindication than whatever floats your boat.
Don't see that as folly but again it's the boat floating thing.
Before the first game this year I considered Keisel a good DE. But he's been mediocre at best through 5 games.

[CERV96]

Has Ike Taylor reached Paul Martin status in yinzernation?

lol. I live 2,750 miles away from Yinzer nation. However, Paul Martin sucks too.

[ulf]

That's a lot of miles
