Re: Is Sean Taylor that good or...
Now I am not hating on the guy I can betg he is going through alot BUT one issue in the coverage of Owens was Shawn Springs... he should have been Terrells shadow but he said something post game that was very telling . In the warm ups he became emotional, this would have been the first time back to Texas Stadium since his dad has been comatose ... I know he is professional but there were times when his head was not in the game .
Those who say Williams wasn't pro-active enough in half time adgustments need to take another thing into account . If Springs wasn't 100% he would have rotated Rogers over there ...who was showing signs of becoming the physical CB we had hoped for . but no rogers... Smoot is and has never been physical he has been a tryer but hasnt the physical gifts...the only option after that is Torrence and Eubanks (not going to be pretty). The other option is to shift the safety over to help BUT once you commit to double one guy then you leave everyone else more vunrable ...... With Taylor in he can move to the ball from centre field but Droughy (sp) and Preylow neither have the gifts physically to do that every play or the experience ... ...which is also why you wouldn't want to put Landry out there changing possitions on him ... Now there is no black and white but the system we used worked to a degree you change things and nothing is sure to produce more positive effects but you have to agree that none of the options were great. Another thing you should take into account with the absence of Taylor is he is a great field general directing the secondary... people are used to knowing where he is and how to fit around him . You cannot just plug and play No.37 and expect the same results . The point I am making is yes Taylor is that good ....his absence wasnt totally to blame but it effected more than just who played FS |
