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.

Basically thats what I was trying to say. The defense lacks playmakers around Taylor so he tries to make all the plays himself becuase he thinks he can. And often he can't keep up because he is trying to do to much. With a solid linebacking corps he would be back to his kickass self.
