Ike Taylor did not play poorly last night. He managed to keep Fitzgerald quiet for 2 and a half quarters, that's a huge accomplishment. His coverage on Fitzgerald's touchdown was pretty good, if you looked at the replay he nearly knocked the ball out of his hands. On Fitzgerald's long td, he got beat on a crossing route, which is pretty common, his safeties were no where to be found. His "swaggin" intro is pretty dumb, but according to some posters on here it's in reference to playing with swagger while at UL. Don't try to make him out to be a poor corner just because he ____ed you off.
I don't remember, nor do I feel like looking it up. I just remember being linked to a story and someone made the comment about an assistant trying to get players to play with swagger.
There is no justification for deliberately choosing to promote self over roots in a forum where ever other one of your colleagues are paying homage to their alma mata. If this were an accepted practice, you'd see it happen much more in the NFL. Not to mention, every nationally televised game I've seen the Steelers play, the commentators take a shot at him. It's embarrassing.
And the first annual Special Teams MVP Award goes to Michael Adams of the Arizona Cardinals formerly of the NON-SWAGGIN University of Louisiana!!!!!
THIS IS FROM BILL SIMMONS BLOG OF THE SUPER BOWL :
9:40 -- The Cards down the punt inside the 2. (Great call! I knew they should have punted!) When James Harrison earns an unnecessary roughness penalty for committing a felony assault on one of the Cards, the ball gets moved to the Pittsburgh 1 with 3:26 remaining. I'd like to congratulate Arizona's Michael Adams for successfully downing that punt without either botching it or stepping on the goal line. We watch punt guys screw that up every week during the season. Nice to see someone nail it on a big stage.
Did anyone else notice that he has 7 tackles for the cardinals today? Where did this come from? Did he start?
