Lewis played at least as well as Taylor last season. Taylor for the for the first time in his career looked a step slower, got burnt, and looked very average at times. If and that is a big if, Taylor is still better than Lewis...the next question is for how much longer?

The Steelers could trade Ben, Pouncey, Troy, and Timmons and Slap here would agree with it.
I agree that keeping the developed talent and letting Ike walk would have been the preferred avenue; actually, the preferred avenue (but, not fiscally possible) would have been to keep Ike, Lewis and Allen. However, I have to disagree with the assessment of Taylor. He played poorly early in the season, but around the 5th game or so he was back to his old self until he was injured. No one was getting behind any of our Cbs on a consistent basis and the defense was playing well even without a superior pass rush, so, the corners were doing their jobs very well.
Ike is a workout warrior and I have no doubt he'll arrive in camp ready to go when it all gets started again.

The referee said that you hit Brian Sipe too hard. Did you hit him too hard?

If Lewis isn't as good as Allen why was Lewis starting over him?
He they made a mistake, or LeBeau is senile.
Take your pick.
