Re: Yet another Haynesworth thread: his style of play

Taylor and Haynesworth are (with little argument) our best players on defense (perhaps Landry as well) and we need to play to their strengths-assuming they're compatible with each other which I think they are.

But often times what happens with the best players on a defense, is that they are asked to do things that don't play to their strengths because the coaches want to use their natural talents to mask the weaknesses of other players.

Well to say Taylor is one of our best D players is an insult to alot of our guys. I guess your assuming that he was bothered by injuries all of last year which hurt his porduction. I would have to hold judgment on Taylor until I see what he can do in D & G rather then base it off of what he did with the Fins.

D & G (dolce and gabbana?)

I'm basing it on Taylor being one of the best defensive players in the NFL over the past decade
