Ike Taylor out 2-6 Weeks... Or more.

http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/651/ike-taylor

A source with knowledge of the situation tells Profootballtalk.com that Steelers RCB Ike Taylor is out at least 2-6 weeks with a right fibula injury, and there is "concern that the injury is significant."
Taylor has missed only three games in his career, and none since 2004. He is clearly the Steelers' top cornerback, so the loss is significant. It will also upgrade Danario Alexander's fantasy matchup in Week 14. Special teamer Curtis Brown is listed as Pittsburgh's backup right corner. Keenan Lewis is the LCB. Dec 2 - 9:18 PM

Thank God Troy is back.

 

one guy back and one guy goes down. this team is having a tough time catching many breaks

 

what ever keeps allen on the field i'm ok with ike going down

 

Who is this stooge?! A player is hurt and he gives the report and is like "oh btw you may wanna start so and so in your fantasy league". What the crap? I don't even like Ike but still dude.

 

I don't remember the Steelers ever having this many injuries in a year.

 

We need this defense to be healthy for the playoffs!

 

We need to fire the Conditioning coach now!

 

Yup, fire Tom Shaw immediately!

Tough break for our team, yet again.

 

possibly a broken leg?

 

The only year I can recall with more, is 1980, when Bradshaw, Harris, Stallworth, Swann, Lambert -along with many others-missed significant action. That was one of the main reasons why the dynasty ended that year.

 

True that!

 

yep
nothing like IKE'S " YOU CAN'T SEE ME " BULLCRAP
but
i must ask

why do we fire tommy shaw from STYX?

draggin swaggin

 

NO!

 

^^^

Going by how Allen looked against Smith and Bolden, Allen is a younger, quicker ( probably better hands ) Ike, I bet we see less PI calls because of this,, that PI call against him near the goal line was B S,, even Flake O had a smile on his face after that academy performance by Smith, pretending his arm was being held along with the fake loosing my balance. Glad they only got 3 points from that

 

The Steelers got Dallas and Cincinnati coming up with both high powered offenses that like to throw often. Next man Up. If there was ever a time for the Standard to be the Standard this better be it. Ike has been covering very well this season. If he could catch the ball he would be a Pro Bowler..............But that Pro Bowl is for the non - Superbowl losers anyways.

 

Man this will hurt hope he can e nak in time fot the SB

 

last year wasen't good either.

 

what year was it that rocky,franco,bradshaw all went down and kruszak (sp?) finished? 76?

 

I believe so

 

great D run to finish that year too. i think it was our best team, but the injuries hit. we would have had a seventh that year. i believe that.

 

long said to have been Noll's favorite team of all he coached
