Great interview here with his father

RIP21

Also, just a quick note here. I know there are many of you who like to point out that he's already been dead five years, he didn't even play that long for us, can we just get over it and move on already, etc....just for today at least, keep those thoughts to yourself.

well said.

I remember that day as if it was a few months ago..Felt like I had lost a relative. Still very sad. Hell of a player. We could use him right now. Love reading that his father is doing good and staying in touch with the redskins organization.

Me too, I remember going to sleep hopping he would be ok, not even play again, just to be ok, then waking up (on my birthday) to a note that my roomate slid under my door that said...

"We lost Taylor, he didn't make it."

It was a very sad birthday that year let me tell you.

I hat to do it to you Warpath.... but just think of all our secondary woes, and how they would be if he were still in the game, assuming we didn't trade him anywhere and he didn't leave as a FA. Oh well to the what if's, now we need to find a guy who's just half as good and we will be set.

I really think that Taylor would have been the next Ronnie Lott. It's stragne that he was so loved by so many yet never talked to the media. It's like he had this cult following. Anyhow he's missed, on and off the field. Such a shame his daughter will never get to know her father.

sad indeed, i remember after hearing what happened, thinking "i wonder if he'll ever play again? who cares, just survive."

my all time favorite sean taylor moment was when he sealed the deal in dallas on mnf. he popped that receiver so hard. man, he was absolutely awesome

30+ minutes right here

I just remember the shock of waking up that morning and seeing the headline here that he had died. It just didn't seem real.

Insanely classy tweet:

@RGIII: Never got the chance to meet Sean Taylor, but his legacy is embedded in our franchise. Because of that...We play with him every game

Sean Taylor was the best ever. Better than Ronnie Lott and certainly better than Jack Tatum and all of the legendary safeties that has played this game. He will always be missed by me. When Victor Cruz caught that 77 yard TD pass from Manning in week 7, Sean Taylor was the first thing I thought about. Because if Sean Taylor was back there then that play doesn't happen.

RIP #21

Rip 21 st "beast".

I can't say he was the best ever. But I am pretty damn sure he would have been.
