Re: What is your favorite thing and the thing you will always remember about Sean Tay
 
The thing I remember was the first time I saw him play in person. I only get to maybe one game a year and I think this was a pre-season game against Carolina. I just remember looking at how big he was and that he looked like a tall linebacker. I couldn't believe how big he looked compared to all the skill guys. He really looked like a man among boys. He earned his nickname "Swoop" because watching a guy that big cover as much ground in a short time was like watching an eagle swoop down and snatch its prey. Amazing. I've never seen anyone like him.

I still can't believe he's gone.

My two favorite memories of Sean are the fumble recovery retuned for a TD against Philly & His pick against S.F during his rookie year. I was at the game in S.F and he was like M.J flying over his opponent for the INT. I also agree with SmootSmack that the way he could scoop up the ball with out breaking stride is something we will probably never see again. I just can’t get over how sad it is to think of all the plays he could have made in his career that were stolen from us Sunday night. Sean Taylor will truly be missed.

lol...I hate to point this out but that was Lavar Arrington in 2000. He hit Aikman so hard left a dent in his helmet...Aikman never played another down of football again...

I do remember Sean blasting Owens into the Eagles bench his rookie year and TO coming back out whining and begging for a flag...

God ST :owned: TO

My favorite Sean Taylor play was that play in the playoffs in 05 when he scooped up the ball and ran in for a TD right after he hit the 5 or so he dove and soared into the endzone.
Ill miss he charisma on the field he was a total gamer always gave it his all. Ill think of ST every play when someone throws to the middle of the field.

Yea I think we would have won that last game in Dallas if Sean was able to play.

How about the fact that with one of his picks in the game against Green Bay this year. He made Brett Favre the career leader in INT's.

I also love watching any hit he put on TO.

There are so many...but this was probably mine as well. Just an absolutely awesome Defensive player...such a shame.

I was at Fed Ex when we beat Dallas on the blocked FG. I was right behind the goal posts they were kicking to, and saw the block, and then saw Sean swoop around and take the ball. We were screaming at the tops of our lungs--Taylor had the ball, and we knew we were going to win. He didn't get the TD, but he set up the winning FG. But in my mind I can see him still, scooping up the ball and just GOING. A true play-maker, when it mattered most. Gives me goosebumps to think about.

I loved the fear he instilled in top flight receivers, particularly T.O. and Randy Moss, neither of whom ever had a big game with #21 patrolling the middle.

For a single moment, Taylor's Superman dive into the end zone on a fumble return to beat Philly and clinch a playoff berth was my favorite highlight.
