I guess that people don't understand what a safety should be doing on a decent defense.
Why is Taylor chasing down runningbacks? Because the RB is getting into the secondary without being touched. Watch how often that happens against the Ravens.
Why is Taylor getting burned on passes? Because there is no pressure on the QB and they pick the DB's apart.
The defense is in shambles but the last thing they have to worry about is Taylor.

Agree--Taylor is not the problem. Granted he has had a tough year but he is playing on his heels because of the deficiencies in front of him. Better D line and LB play will bring out the Taylor of old.
