Wash. Times: Is this the season of Sean Taylor?

[1fisher]

Sheez. Someone woke up on the wrong side of bed this morning. People throw the word "hate" around all the time. So what. I'm sure youve done it plenty of times. Get over it.

actually, I posted this before I went to bed last night so I had all day to get over it........

 

[WR17]

Gallery is a huge bust. 2nd overall pick and he's easily been one of the 3 worst offensive tackles in the league since he's been in the league. Now the Raiders may move him to guard and his future there as a starter is uncertain.

Taylor has lead all safeties in TD's allowed in 2004 and 2006. He's only played 3 years. He looked good in 2005, but if it was just about any other safety in the league that didn't get the occasional highlight reels with his occasional big hits (Taylor also led the league in missed tackles last season with 19), he'd be considered a pretty bad safety.

Hell, Roy Williams' pass stat numbers over the past 4 years are far better than Taylor's have been in the past 3 seasons and he's usually considered as a terrible cover guy and horribly overrated (and Roy forces much more turnovers)

When a guy like Taylor is a former 6th overall pick and has pass defense numbers that are that bad (especially in an important stat like TD's allowed) and misses that many tackles, it's probably safe to start thinking he could be a bust if he doesn't get things turned around.

remembers Art over on ES calling Newman a bust despite statistically being a top 10 corner in 2004, yet Taylor is some supposed superstar

Once again Yakuza Rich lives in his fantasy stat dream world while completely ignoring simple nfl facts. A blind squirell will tell you that Sean Taylor is a far superior cover safety than Roy Williams. But yeah keep bringing up garbage stats that aren't backed up by game footage. This stat has been discredited so many times because of the lack of evidence, I'm amazed people still bring it up.

Calling Sean Taylor a bust is hilarious. The guy carried our defense into the 2nd round of the playoffs where as Roy continued to get embaressed by the Jeremy Stevens of this league when it mattered.
