Dan T. Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Taylor saw little action today. Bram Weinstein mentioned that he was late for (or missed?) a meeting because he was sick. Supposedly they reduced his involvement as a result. Could this be related to the report by Extremeskins hospital worker who reported here that Taylor went to the hospital during the week because he suffered a seizure?

TimFolk Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Naw he missed a meeting. Gibbs was displining him. He just didn't take it out to the media like SoS would have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs said in the press conference that he was in some packages and not in some other ones, the reason he was out of some, was because he missed practice time this week.

bubba9497 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 FOX said he missed time in practice because he was sicker than what was told tothe media... and the Skins didn't want to excert him. WTEM reported Taylor missed a meeting and was being punished. Gibbs in his press conference said that he (Taylor) was only in certain packages, but missed some time this week and was not involved in more... meaning either story could be true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montilar Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Bram Weinstein mentioned that he was late for (or missed?) a meeting because he was sick. Supposedly they reduced his involvement as a result. Think what it would of been if he was playing for coughlin. :laugh: The pregame said 4 giants filed grievances against him (including Strahan) because Coughlin fined them for only being 2 minutes EARLY to a meeting. Coughlin locked the doors BEFORE the meeting was supposed to start and wouldn't let them in; even though they were there before the meeting was supposedly scheduled for.

Shakespeare always frustrated me, I could never understand WTF they were saying. I guess it shows. :laugh: So, Taylor missed some meetings due to sickness, so as a result didn't play so much?

It must have been heartbreaking. I don't think he'll be missing any meetings in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTEM (Bram Weinstein, I think) mentioned that Clinton Portis came over to a dejected looking Taylor on the sidelines, put his arm around him and gave him a good pep talk. Mentioned that it shows how Portis is quickly becoming a leader on this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsGuy Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I remember seeing a couple of the other players on the sidelines consoling Taylor. It may be b/c he was frustrated he wasn't getting much playing time. If it's true he missed a meeting, then this will be a good lesson for Taylor.... DON'T MISS TEAM MEETINGS AND TAKE YOUR JOB AND RESPONSIBILITIES MORE SERIOUSLY! Skins Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooma Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 The way the starting safetys played today Taylor may not start for sometime, especially since he was burned by that one play that should have been a TD. Bowen was amazing today, where has that been and Lott was very solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morning Wood Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Taylor wasn't burned in the least, he had great coverage. Brad just put the ball exactly where it should have been, where only the receiver could make a play. Luckily for us, he didn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kappaluvacee Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I think Sean was actually sicker than disclosed and his frostration was in the fact that he returned from the injury to reduced time during the game. He was being consoled by Portis as a gesture to be ready when his number is called. Williams has shown brilliance in the cultivation of this kid. I think Williams is feeding the young puppy gunpowder. When he grows up, or finally gets into the game, he will be a crazed maniac looking to draw blood. I can't imagine him playing with more ferocity than he has already shown. It's a truly scarry thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cphil006 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Originally posted by TimFolk Naw he missed a meeting. Gibbs was displining him. He just didn't take it out to the media like SoS would have. There was absolutely NO discipline involved. He was sick and missed some practice and meetings. Therefore he was not as prepared as Lott. Taylor was going to play a lot more and be featured in certain packages, but the game never required those packages. He played more when Bowen went down, so they shifted Lott to strong and Taylor to free. He also played in multiple DB formations. Tampa never ran plays which required the limited packages that Taylor was in. Taylor was in a limited number of packages because he missed practice and meetings because he was ill. ...There was NO disclipline involved...

Ernie5 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Thanks Ancalagon the Black for the grammar/vocab correction. I was wondering why someone was asking such an existential question: Sean Taylor -- WHY are you? So many answers. And no answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Hmm maybe Strahan will make a big stink get cut and wind up in B & G in 2k5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins26 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Yeah I dont think Taylor got burnt on that play, it was a perfect throw, and Joey Galloway is one of, if not the fastest (straight line) receiver in the game, so its not a big deal if a rookie underestimates his speed.

laurent Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 How can anyone argue that Taylor wasn't beat???? He was a good two steps behind Galloway without any chance whatsoever to make a play on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
