Apparently he is at again. Missed a meeting but Gibbs and staff are keeping it low key. No presss on this. But Bram from WTEM reported this after the game on the post game report. Didn't start but almost got burned by Galloway on dropped TD pass. Looks like he fell on Galloway after play and Baby boy got up and never returned to the Game. (Galloway that is)
So lets see what happens. Saw alot of Lott, Bowen, and Franz. Do not miss meetings my friend this is the NFL not Miami

he did force a fumble that wanst called.
The way Bowen and Lott played we can afford to bring Taylor along slowly.

Him sitting on our bench is a waste. Let him get his feet wet. He'll get burned a few times, but he has spectacular playmaking ability that I doubt we'll see from any other safety.

matty I think your right, we can afford to bring him along slowly, especially in the beginning. if williams thinks he needs to teach him a lesson nows the time to do it. there's no dout about his skills but we don't want a sapp, keyshawn,owens on the loose.

I think he learned that he can't miss meetings... don'tcha think?
Did you see him dispondant and being consoled at the start of the game?
They said he had the flu... ha!

To ensure the best team possible, sometimes you have to bench the most talented players.
Sean Taylor will be great, but being great involves being a presense on and off the field.
A team does not revolve around individuals. It has to work as a whole, with the trust and assurance that the man standing next to them knows just as much about the game plan and has worked just as hard to earn their spot as them.
Until ST proves he can be as good off the field as he is on it, I think that Lott should get the nod...

The media suspected he was still feeling the effects of a virus that he had earlier in the week. The Skins obviously did not release the info to the media before hand, so they stated the most common sense answer they could think of at the time. We now know otherwise.
ALL players miss a meeting at some point in their career, and they all get punished for it (unless they have an acceptable excuse, of course). Taylor should not be the exception to the rule. He didn't get fined (that we know of) or suspended. Just a simple slap that will wake him up a bit. Young players need this every now and then.
Taylor is the starter, not Lott, and I fully expect to see him ball-hawking with the first team next Sunday.

ST is learning what it takes to be a Gibbs Redskin.
HOWEVER, Lott played well and ST got burned by Galloway but ANY safety would have been burned by him on that play. ST needs to be on the field soon; he is a difference maker causing fumbles, interceptions etc..

I disagree daseal, if he missed a meeting at his age when he has so much to learn, then he should be on the bench, it's the only way he will learn to be a real pro. rewarding him for disrespecting team rules, not only will encourage more, but will also send the wrong message to the rest of the team, gibb's know's better!
