Jason Taylor is producing. You have to remeber that he played for one team for his whole career. Not only did the team center its defensive scheme around his skills but also he is not a straight up run stopper either. His best quality is that he sets the edge. Meaning he is very good at keeping runs inside the linbackers to prevent big runs around the corner. This also shuts down screens and reverses. It would be great to get two sacks a game from him but I would rather have him forcing runners into London Fletcher and Rocky McIntosh. The batted balls are a reflection of what he does well. And most importantly as an ex-athlete I will say this once again: YOU CAN'T FAIRLY JUDGE AN ATHLETE UNTIL HE IS 100% HEALTHY. Anything outside of 100%, the player should be comended for playing through pain. The guy could've lost a leg for Christs sake. It's a long season. We're 4 - 2. Lets just cheer these guys on and hope everyone stays healthy and focused on the task at hand!
