whaddya mean predicted? you didn't ask who 'will' be defensive POY, you asked who 'should' be D POY. Big difference.

My question was IS Jason Taylor the NFL Defensive MVP. I voted YES. Everyone else voted NO.

There was no will or should involved in my question.

He was the best defensive player in the league then and now it has been confirmed.

I wish I knew how to lock the poll so bammas cant try to act like they voted yes before today.

i voted no, when you first put it up. my vote goes to champ. I honestly thought you implied 'should.'

Champ had a great year, but seriously Jason Taylor may have had the greatest year ever for a defensive end. 13.5 sacks, 2 interceptions, both of which were ran back for touchdowns, an absolutely unreal 10 forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries.

greatest year for a DE? i think strahan's much greater ability to stop the run makes his record breaking year better.

Taylor scored just as many touchdowns in one season as Strahan has in his entire 30 year career. lmfao lmfao lmfao

so? and i bet taylor's lack of ability to stop the running game cost them some pts. I don't mean to say he's completely useless against the run, but he's not anywhere near guys like strahan, reggie white and bruce smith. they were complete defensive ends.

LMAO Bruce Smith was absolutely useless against the run, especially late in his career. When he was with the redskins at the end of the career, teams ran to his side every freakin time and gained 5 yards a clip. I dont watch Strahan play enough to comment on his ability against the run, and I seriously doubt you watch Taylor play enough to make such comments. The fact that you included Bruce Smith in your last post makes me seriously doubt that you know wtf you are talking about.

BRUCE SMITH LMFAO Get a clue.

dude, smith was over the hill when he was with the skins. i bet taylor's gonna be pretty crap at that age, when he loses two steps.

everybody knows smith in his prime was better than taylor in his.

perhaps, but that doesnt mean he was ever any good against the run

Terpy Wrote:perhaps, but that doesnt mean he was ever any good against the run

he was better than taylor.

Better as a player? Yes

Better against the run? No

He was awful against the run, I think its funny how you know so much about a player who began his career before you were even born.
