Sean Taylor

memphisskin · 11-22-2004, 12:17 PM

McNabb was averaging like 8 yds a carry against us for his career at one point, so him shaking ST yesterday was no big deal. I hoped ST was going to lay the smack down, but I can see he's still learning the ropes right now. Sean Taylor is going to be alright, right now the defense is under too much pressure. The penalty was a bit much, but it comes with playing on the edge. I like that he has a mean streak, I want a safety that's going to make his presence felt, like Roy Williams. Sean Taylor will be just as good as RW, if not better since he's such a great cover guy.

Overall I really like Taylor. He still makes a lot of mistakes (as expected), but he's all over the field.

I also think he's a little nuts, but that could be a good thing. As long as he doesn't turn into Ron Artest.

Matty:

To be sure, McNabb has earned his reputation as an elite player in the NFL. But I did want some of the folks here who were going into a "Sean Taylor rhsposdy" to recognize that he made some blockheaded playes today too.

LIke I said, when his big hits and spectacular plays turn a game around or when he becomes a force in the league that forces offenses to alter their normal game plans, then it might be approporate for him to be mentioned in the same paragaph with Lawrence Taylor. Until then...

Taylor is a beast. He'll make a couple of stupid plays but he is an intimidator. I want him on our side. He reminds me of Lavar in his overall approach to the game. He lays his body out on every play.

taylor got an int while play man coverage on chad johnson, and another covering TO... i guess QBs don't expect safeties to be any good at coverage, but he's done some good things...
