If you're going to go with the argument that Sean Taylor lost the game by being on the team, then this is what I say:

I'm going to repeat this one more time.

Had Sean Taylor not been on the team, the fumble that prevented the Cowboys from scoring ANOTHER touchdown would have not happened. Would someone else have blown the coverage? That's debatable.

The fact is, it is unfair to blame one player for a loss. Even in our fantasy land that is most of our minds, a team wins the game and a team loses the game. Regardless of how many points are scored and how many points are given up it is a team effort.

I also happen to be the person who needs the guide dog because I feel that you aren't one of the top 3 defensive rookies in the league by making "hightlight" reel hits.

As far as him being a meathead, there is no doubt. I use that term in a different sense meaning that he just doesn't seem like the most intelligent guy in the world.

Football is his sport and that's where his knowledge is.

I don't go knocking my garbageman because he's not a rocket scientist, so I'm not going to knock Taylor for not "seeming" to be intelligent.

If people were to survive on physical skills alone, then Brock Lesnar would have made it far in the NFL. Hell, every person on "World's Strongest Man" would be able to play.

Taylor did not cost the team games. He was a very important cog in a methodical machine of a defense.

Would I rather him be here than not? You're damn right.
