Thanks Matty! Great to see over and over.
Curmudgen don't agree w/ ya about Taylor. People being scared and/or intimidated by him is a good thing. And I do think he's improved alot this season. Ofcourse he wants to knock someone out, but like arrington sometimes a huge shot doesn't keep 'em outta the endzone. To my recollection it was the only time in the game when he didn't wrap up on a tackle.

SC, the problem with comparing Taylor to Polamalu is Taylor is a rookie safety and Polamalu is a 2nd year guy. I'd be willing to bet Taylor will be better than Polamalu at this point next year and you'll be hardpressed to find an NFL GM that wouldn't want ST over TP.

They also don't play the same safety position, but I'm not going to nitpick.

Polamalu was burned on more than one occasion his rookie year... in fact, I'd venture to say it was about the same amount as Taylor this year. I watched Troy play here at SC- Taylor has much more athletic ability without question... Sean's on track as far as Troy was concerned.

[QUOTE=sportscurmudgeon] Only losers look at a play like that and revel in it being something special to them because winners have already dealt with the fact that they won and are moving on to deal with the next team they are going to beat.[/QUOTE]
Well apparently ESPN Monday night coutdown must be losers to because the very first thing they showed for JACKED UP was Pinkston ducking out of the way. The message was that he did not want to get Jacked Up because big bad Ryan Clark was ready to paste him. Not Shawn Taylor but Clark. We contantly revel on bad plays so why shouldn't we enjoy good ones also, win or lose?

This is too funny

This was a pic from the Philly game, you can see the fear in his eyes. What a pussie. Tayor is the man!
