Also, have you seen him force a fumble. He has a special type of awareness where he can make a solid tackle, plus rip out the ball at the same time. I have witnessed that at least twice this season.

Finally, I have seen him cover Randy Moss, TO, Jeremy Shockey, and various others in one-on-one situations and hold his own. In fact, I distinctly remember him completely jumping OVER Jeremy Shockey to break up a pass. He also tackled Randy Moss, who was bobbling a ball in the air, and never took his eyes off the ball. Taylor made a great tackle while watching and batting the ball away.

I guess we have different take on what constitutes amazing. If you look at all the mistakes he makes he falls short of amazing. I mean, Roy Williams of the Cowboys makes plays quite a bit and I don't hear anyone in here calling him amazing.

Barry Sanders is amazing, Taylor is not...not yet anyways
