Jason Taylor: will he play next week?

[johnerotten]

i don't think he should.we should be able to easily beat the rams without him one would think.i'd like to have him 100% on the field against the browns.
what do you all think?

If he's healthy get him back in there.

[jbcjr14]

Right, if he is healthy suit him up and get back in action.

Yeah....from what I heard there was even a chance he could have played in the Eagles game. But they chose to be safe and really rest him one more week. He'll be ready to go and cause mayhem w/ the rest of the "D" this week.

According to Vinny, (on 980am in DC right now) All our guys stand a real good chance of starting this weekend. The best thing we have learned is that our backups CAN PLAY! And, they are getting invaluable seasoning for future stardom.

It was good to see Erasmus James out on the field. I hope Jason plays soon and decides to go atleast another year. It's rough seeing him on the sidelines, he even said that he doesn't feel like a part of the team when he's not playing.

I think you might be looking at it the wrong way it's going to take a while for JT to get his feet back up under him. So since this week is a "winnable game" why not let him work out his kinks this week to be fully ready for next week.

Yeah I think play him I'm anxious to see what our D can do when healthy. You'll notice we stopped getting sacks without taylor. Springs should just play important games, so his little fragile ass stays healthy

[GridIron26]

As of right now, I would prefer for JT to heal 100%.. Even if he's at 90% or so, I would still sit him down.. We will need him more than we think we do for games in future.. The first 3 games with JT playing, we got 6 sacks.. And last two games without JT, we got 0 sacks.. That says something about JT, and that it is not worth the risk of putting JT back on the field when he's not 100%..

[FRPLG]

I think if he is healthy we need to get him some work. I am really hoping we can go out and lay the smack down early and get a nice lead so we can rest some guys a little. These last two games were physical and we don't need more of that right now.

didnt Aikman say he wanted to play against the eagles? if i had to bet, my money would be on Taylor playing against St. Louis. and im with matty. if he is healthy enough, get his ass back out there

[CRedskinsRule]

I would think that if he is at 85% or better then you bring him in a couple of plays this game, let him get back going, and then use the full rotation at DE. I agree with the comment that our sacks stopped once JT was out, he was pulling a lot of DT and chipping which opened up the backfield to everyone else.

[johnerotten]

he probably wants to play so bad now it's killing him.

[GhettoDogAllStars]

He didn't come cheap. He's a future HoF'er. Play him every chance you get.

[Daseal]

If he isn't 100% don't slow his progression. This is a stretch where we shouldn't need him. Let him get completely healthy for our late season push and into the playoffs. I don't want to see nagging injuries.
