    Now if it were Clark or Polamalu my feeling would be different.
    Actually, Ike Taylor is a very good tackler.

    In fact, I read a breakdown last offseason that showed how all of his coverage numbers were on par with Revis' with the obvious exception of INTs. The breakdown detailed how much better he was in run support (and at tackling) than any of the top CBs in the league. The whole point of the article was that Taylor is as important to the Steelers' defense as Revis is to the Jets and that Pittsburgh was fortunate, from a salary cap standpoint, that Taylor's total package was perceived as less valuable than Revis' ability to create turnovers.

    EDIT: that article may have been about Asomugha, can't remember. The point is the same, Taylor is a better tackler than most CBs.
