sucks about Nix, but they should be used to plying without him

Sucks for Nix. He helps the run game immensely. Switzer to IR......THANK GOD!
 
makes you wonder what signigns are coming next.
 
or, you know, Dumbass Hoot could read other threads and find out.
 
Steelers opening up a spot for Colin Kaepernick?
 
Gonna miss Nix. He was a critical piece in a running game that has struggled this year. Looks like he is reaching the end of his career though. Injuries are starting to pile up. I wonder if they will give Sutton Smith some work at FB now.
Switzer is done - JAG. Like the add of Tevin Jones to the 53. He looked good in the PS and adds some speed as a 4.5 40 guy that's gotta be a good thing for our WRs.

If he can catch a punt, fall forward and not drop it he's a huge improvement
 
Ryan Switzer and Roosevelt Nix Placed on IR, Add Two More Players.

By G.Stryker SteelerNation.com WR Ryan Switzer and FB Roosevelt Nix were placed on Injured Reserve today. Nix was the only fullback on the roster, and Switzer was underutilized as a slot receiver this year, but was the main kick and punt returner for the team. WR Tevin Jones and LB Jayrone Elliott have been added […]

Tevin Jones (0 targets for 0 yards) > Johnny Holton (6 targets for 0 yards)
 
You never like to see anyone's season end. Nix rarely gets an opportunity on offense, but he's a heck of a special teams player. I think we all knew Switzer would go to the IR the instant they announced his injury last week.
 
The thing with Switzer is he just never fumbles. I know he probs averages 1.5 yards or so per return, but he is safe

Between his punt returns, fair catchs, ko returns, receptions and rushes he has probably 20 more touches than JJ, and twice the fumbles... yet juju is a “fumbler” and Switzer is “safe”... weird lol
 
Quick question... did DJ fumble on a punt return last week? I did not see the first half of the game but I thought I saw something when I was checking the score.

Sucks about Nix, not so much about Switzer. I would like to see the FO find another FB for the rest of the year, our running game really needs it.
