I've watched Marcus Kemp's catch, short run, and the #21 Safety Sean Davis's tackle several times.
I feel bad for Marcus to have his season end so soon.
I don't know what Marcus could have done to keep such a violent collision from happening short of him taking off and flying. He caught the ball and all of his momentum is going forward.
Maybe Sean Davis is innocent on this and had no other choice, but it looked like that was a deliberate blow to the side of the knee. He came in, went low to create the collision.
While I am complaining, also took issue with some of the other tackles that the Steelers made. The tackle that seems like it is a deliberate attempt to hurt players is to catch a player by the waist and then pull your lower body in and slide into the ankles. The Pittsburgh player #28 Mike Hilton tried to do that with Darwin Thompson at 5:21 in the 2nd quarter but Darwin was too fast and strong for him. Also happened at 1:26 in 1st quarter when #44 Tyler Matakevich rolled up on Deon Yelder's ankle and hurt him. There was a couple of other times during the game I noticed this technique was used but I don't feel like trying to go back through and trying to find them.
