Steelers K Suisham out for the Year

[akcolt]

Suisham tore his ACL making a tackle in HOF game.

This could be a problem for Pittsburg. They didn't have another K in camp. Pittsburg isn't the easiest stadium to kick in. PAT's are longer this year. A good K can make a big difference not just Fg's and PAT's but starting field position. Tough loss.

see everyone. kickers are people too

Devastating loss for Pitt. Very difficult to kick at Heinz. Not sure who is out there for them to sign. This is why in some ways I hate the preseason. I get that you have to play the games and have starters play some but it is awful when injuries like this happen to a key player.

 

Also, great point on the extra point. I think we will see a few games this season get decided because of that new rule.

That is the funniest news of the week. 

 

I hope they're prepared for him to make long field goals every now and then and then totally miss the easy ones in OT when you desperately need it.

LOL! Good one Lollygagger. Your humor reminds me of that t-shirt with the caboose family on it.

 

Wise caboose, Smart caboose, Dumb caboose, Lazy caboose, & Kiss caboose written on it as family member introductions  on it. Keep it brother!

deflated his knee pads and caused the injury

[Girlzarefanstoo]

We were watching the game when he injured his knee and just couldn't believe that a kicker would make that tackle, in the preseason let alone in a game that wasn't a playoff.  Just dumb.  

 

It reminded me of how upset I was at this one:

No, no, NO!  Don't play the hero in a preseason game
