- Let's get the obvious out of the way first: if Ike Taylor catches the balls that are thrown at him, there probably wouldn't be a need to write this article.
Probably every secondary coach in the NFL makes this a point of emphasis on the first day of mini camp. If the secondary just catches the balls that are thrown right at them, they would lead the NFL in interceptions. However, I don't see Taylor making strides in this area after all these years, so there is not sense belaboring it.
A more interesting aspect to look at would be what the secondary can try to do schematically to help the quarterback make errant throws. Based upon a recent article in the Pittsburgh Tribune Review, this seems to be the direction that the Steelers want to go. Here is the relevant quote from the loquacious one, Ryan Clark:
"Some of the things that we did with Deshea (Townsend) and William Gay over the years, we weren't able to do last year. Coach Lake took it slow, but now getting William back and having another year with Cortez is going to allow us to do the things that were successful in years before."
So, what is Clark referencing? What are the "things" that we can look forward to from the secondary this year?
