I am so beyond sick and tired of the constant excuses for this jackass! HE SUCKS! And he has for three years. William Gay is better, and it's not even close. The whole team fell apart in the second half (another piss poor coaching effort by Tomlin), but the worst culprit, AGAIN was #24. For the life of me, I can't fathom why so many fans think he's good. I respect you guys, but I really have to question what games some of you are watching.
Somebody please explain how Ike Taylor is great

And it will be all year so get use to it
If he could catch, it would have been a different game the 2nd half
You got your whipping boy in Ike and I see some of the same stuff in Troy. He again missed at least two tackles that would have helped tremendously. I'm not saying Troy sucks, he just needs to step it up or let the youngin's give it a go.

The same thing could be said about Cortez Allen. The INT he dropped was a lot more catchable than the one Ike has go off his hands.
agree...I just look back at all the possible int's Ike should have had through the years...I think he's a good DB, just wish he had some hands

Ike is old. It is what it is.
So, it's more excuses for him, okay, got it. Like I said, I like you guys, but I am so sick of the excuses for Ike's consistent poor play. And Steelchip, I agree. I love Troy, but he looked slow and lost out there today. And Cam Thomas was just brutally slow.

Hes not the player he once was...his best days are behind are behind him. And the new rules have minimized his skills. But he could never catch...ever...he actually doesnt need his hands and should donate them to science. Just cut em off and give him wooden stubs.

Ike doesnt intercept balls.....they somehow get "lodged" in his torso.
He can't catch, can't cover, and can't tackle. And it's been this way for going on three years now. Yes, he used to be good (NEVER great), but he is a flat out liability now. People need to wake up with him. The quicker we move on from him, the better off we'll be.
Fast forward to the 1:29 mark,, or just watch the whole thing
Therein lies the problem...with who ??
No one on D earned their pay in the 2nd half other than Gay. Allen did look like a 6 million dollar man. Ike is done after this year. The D needs work. We will be in trouble against a good passing team. We still get no pressure on the QB and that makes our secondary look even worse.

He's swaggin while staring at the back of the jersey of his man who is 5 steps in front of him. Swaggin!
The dline is absolute garbage and we're bitching about Ike's hands???
Not for nothing the best player we have on defense is on the dline. The linebackers are garbage
This....time to get Shamarko on the field...
He injured his Achilles in the game.
The biggest problem was over pursuit, we cut that **** out and there won't be nearly as many mis-tackles, Worilds is horrible at keeping contain.

I'm still trying to figure out who thinks he's great...
Defense had MUCH bigger problems than Taylor in the second half.
