After getting torched on the flea flicker the kid came back with a hell of a play on Crayton. He flat out saved the game for Washington.

Agreed. He put a good lick on the kid. That was close to being a fumble...
I thought it was a no doubt fumble. I guess the refs blew it dead since there was no review.

I give Taylor credit for being a punk thug who pulls guns on people.
Did you also give Michael Ervin credit for being a cokehead, crack ho chasing, franchise embarrising moron back in the 90's or did you just cheer him on for what he did on the field like the rest of us?

wow...one big hit and he gets props...other than that play the only way you knew he was in the game was seeing him get toasted by Glenn

why does everyone say Roy sux in coverage, but not Sean Taylor? oh I know, its because Taylor doesnt play for the Cowboys

Taylor made a big play but lets stop the hype that he is already the top safety in the league. Like Roy, he was beaten twice by Terry Glenn deep. Roy added to the game with a caused fumble and a sack. Roy deserves blame for his part in the loss, but he was more of a factor than Taylor yesterday imo.


And I am a Taylor fan also if he can keep his head screwed on straight. He has all the ability to be a top safety for a long time. Although the hype about him at ES is overboard imo.

He didn't play a great game, but that hit was made when it really counted. I can't believe Crayton didn't hold on to it, with the hands he's shown, but sometimes you can't do anything about it.

that was a hell of a lick, and i wonder how many players would have held on. if he had, that would have been game, but that list of "ifs" is a long one. an unfortunate turn of events, several things all had to occur for them to even consider winning, and as bad luck would have it, all those things DID occur... i think the word is "fluke."

I am just glad he didnt kill CRAYTON...although anytime Crayton has the ball, I am afraid he is going to fumble..thus I am not surprised he dropped that ball

he fumbled vs San Diego and the way he holds the ball just seems like its going to pop out.

Yea, Crayton does scare me a little too in that department.
He runs very upright, too.
BP mentioned it as well but I've noticed since preseason.

Crayton just has to earn his, like anyone else in this league.

He has the potential, just like Jones and Ware. He just has to meet or exceed expectations.

I think even though Taylor made that hit (which was a fumble BTW), Crayton has shown some toughness and will be just fine.

I'd bet Keyshawn would have held onto it.

Taylor escaped a penalty last night, remember on Glenn's 2nd long grab? Taylor drove him into the ground after he was out of bounds, and I dont' give Taylor any credit for that hit, Crayton should have tucked the ball in when he went up field instead of cradling it

No credit for the hit? Sean Taylor made a great football hit - no helmet - and knocked the ball free. His timing was perfect. To give him no credit is just silly.
