. . . in a long time, imo. I don't say that lightly, and imagine he feels worse than anybody about it.
Think about the term "safety". He is the last line to keep it from going big, and it's been a bad season.
On WI's first TD it was Taylor who missed the tackle at the very point of the pass completion.
On the long bomb it was Taylor who didn't defend the pass well enough.
On the tackle Josey missed for the long run, that basically guaranteed a two score lead, it was Taylor who was right there, but completely whiffed.
The same can be said for other losses. For example, whether it's NW long run, or pass in the end zone, it's shocking to see someone unable to stop a score when it is needed so intensely.
It's too bad, too. All reports are that he is a very positive example in practice. The bottom line is that he just doesn't get the job done. Hopefully, he can have some season defining redemption.
