BEREA, Ohio (AP) -- Defensive end [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] will not be part of the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]' push for the playoffs.The 6-foot-3, 335-pounder missed four games earlier in the year following an arthroscopic procedure on the same knee, but coach Mike Pettine said the current injury is ''unrelated to it.''Taylor was placed on injured reserve Friday with a right knee injury that will require surgery, ending his season after just five games.
''It's unfortunate because Phil did give us a spark last week in Cincinnati, and we will miss him out there,'' Pettine said. ''At the same time, we know this is something that definitely needs to be corrected, so we're shutting Phil down.''

I think they pushed Taylor to come back from that procedure a couple weeks too soon, they needed another lineman because of all the injuries they have up front, I would rather have had a complete healthy Taylor a couple weeks from now then have him gone the rest of the season, question now is how much further damage has been done to that knee, and if they did indeed rush him back someone's head should roll.

I agree but this team would be so MUCH better in the 4-3, they have the talent and big boys to be the best D-Line in the League.

Two more of our defensive guys went down today. Winn is out of shape was cramping up all day. Not Good.
