Is J. Taylor really needed?

I think a HOF DE would make a team better. I would say if we keep winning let's make sure he's fairly healthy before we bring him back.

Even a less than 100% HOF DE would make this team better. In the Dal game, Wilson and Evans pretty much got manhandled. I think JT would have gotten a sack or two in the 2nd half.

They combined for 6 pressures, which is a greater number than Jason Taylor's three game total.

Although Andre Carter seems to be a much bigger factor when Taylor is rushing on the other side, I'll definitely give you guys that one.

I'll say thus far, JT has looked like our most effective DE overall. From staying disciplined on screens, to batting down passes... he's definitely established himself as a solid DE here in D.C.

Do we need him? No... but does he improve our overall D? Absolutely. If he can stay healthy and continue his production, he's def. worth the number 2 IMO.

W/out looking at stats, I watched the NFL Replay and it just looked like the were running upfield or being pushed upfield and taking swipes at the QB. They may have gotten a little pressure occasionally but look how many times Romo passed in that game. It didn't look like Dal's o line was sweatin Carters opposite side.

I think it's debatable if JT will be a HOF er or not. So far in the games he's played in I haven't seen a HOF player and that's all that really matters. Hopefully when he comes back he'll be 100% healthy.

I think it is safe to say JT is a HOF and will go in as a Doliphn, waht he does here if anything will be icing on his career cake.

Do you know what his sack total was vs the NFCE last year?


1 and that was against the Skins.

Perhaps the Skins are a better team and thus take away the luxury for the Opposing Offense to key solely on him?
