 Sean Taylor struggling
Up to the minute news about the Washington Redskins from GoTeamsGo. We'll find the latest Washington Redskins news so you can chat about here. Quote: Redskins Sean Taylor's problems are now between the lines

This was the year Taylor was supposed to be the beast, "the best player in the NFL," according to teammate Clinton Portis. The Washington Redskins safety, who was in constant trouble during his first two seasons, finally had his legal problems behind him and was free to concentrate on terrifying receivers, quarterbacks and running backs league-wide.
It hasn't happened. Stallworth's touchdown in the game at Philadelphia two weeks ago was only the most obvious symptom of something gone wrong. Taylor is missing tackles, taking bad angles and leaving receivers open. It's still true that no one hits harder - he's hasn't lost his knack for committing personal fouls - but it's clear he's not the same.
Through 10 games, he has no interceptions, no sacks, no forced fumbles and has batted away only three passes. He's part of a secondary that has allowed an NFL-high 41 pass plays of at least 20 yards.
