This animal should be fined heavily for another one of his moronic late hits

Seriously, I recall him doing that at least 2 or 3 other times throughout his career. Does he not hear whistles or something?

Re: KEMO IS READY, BUT...

He hears the whistles but apparently has some processing weaknesses. Seriously, he is a liability in all but the role of pulling to block on run plays. The penalty today cost us a scoring drive and cost us momentum. It was another in a portfolio of similar bad penalties by Kemo, 15 yards after the whistle, no replay of the down, no simple 5 yarder there.

• Starting left guard Chris Kemoeatu didn't waste much time making his presence felt after missing the previous two games. Not that the Steelers wanted Kemoeatu to announce his return in the way that he did. Kemoeatu picked up facemask and personal foul penalties in the first quarter -- on the same possession, no less. The second penalty short-circuited a promising drive.

There always has been a fine line between aggressive and ill-advised play when it comes to Kemoeatu, who also struggled in pass blocking yesterday. The less he flirts with it, the better it will be for the Steelers.

kemo is known for 2 things. stupid personal fouls that kill drives - and being bull rushed at the most inopportune times.

Re: KEMO IS READY, BUT...

If I was Tomlin I would have benched him as soon as he made that late block. I'm tired of his stupid crap and I hate seeing guys being cheap shot players !

I hope he gets one hell of a fine. There is no reason to do that type of stuff.

Re: KEMO IS READY, BUT...

I was listening to the Fan Radio Station today when a caller phoned in about Kemo and his late block/hit. Cookie and the other guy answered, there's no excuse it has to come down to, Kemo is just stupid. Yep, that is what they said and just went on knocking him about the guy just doesn't learn and he must be incapable of thinking quick enough on not to be doing those bone headed plays. No excuse for crap like that prior or after a play.

I was laughing because they just couldn't give him any excuse and continued to talk how stupid he is.

You prefer to have Trai Essex starting at left guard? With Legursky on the shelf for several more weeks, Essex is our only replacement option at this time. No thanks.

Exactly, theres no better option. Unfortunately, despite his shortcomings, I still think hes the best guard we have on the team.

He's probably the lesser of the evils or they just hope he will have an up game instead of some of the stupid performances he puts out there at times.
