I hate that refs are targeting a hard hitting Sean Taylor... totally crap!

I'll "third" that - ST's call was questionable (I haven't seen a good replay, but it looked like he was in the air at the time the ball got to the receiver), but it seems the calls always go against him. The noncall was indefensible, IMO.

The only reason Sean Taylor is a marked man is because of his own stupidity. When he spit on that Tampa Bay player in the playoffs last year, he guaranteed that he'll be flagged on every close play for years to come, and it cost us dearly last night.

That's probably true, although, if Rogers had made the tackle, Taylor wouldn't have had the facemask.

Good point. Michael Wilbon takes Carlos to task in his column this morning.

As long as he responds in the right way, his repetoire with the officials will get better. He's no Roy Williams.
