Gotta admit… it’s pretty bad-ass when Taylor rips down that cowboys fans sign and then when the fan tries to hold it back up Taylor comes running back to rip it down again.
If this guy is going to attack QB’s the way he has in the past, i’ll be rooting for him week in, week out.

And take those highlights off- he gets no highlights on this blog until he makes some big plays for us!

I’m still so uneasy with him on the team. I just feel awkward and mildly disgusted.

I just cant get myself to watch it! Maybe after he does something special in a Jets uniform, I will be more tolerant.

I hate JT, but the beginning of the video was awesome.

Guys, he’s on the team. He’s not getting cut. We need him to good. Support him rather than wait-and-see. If you wait-and-see then the first time he screws up all of you will immediately abandon him and then the Jets pass rushing specialist has no fans cheering for him.
-
I will say this, the beginning of the video made me like him a hole lot more.
Bring that nastiness to a team that already plays nasty and you will fit right in.
With Bart Scott barking at JT all game, i’m sure hes gonna have plenty of motivation to get involved and play “like a Jet”

i would be a lot more fired up if these highlights were from 2009 and not 2005

starz31 says:
hahaha…that Cowboys-thing is pretty good. I love that intensity. You dont hang that banner in an opponents home stadium ANd he goes back a second time…hahaha.
-
He made Dbrick look foolish, but that was back when Brick was still a youngin’ and Taylor could still play.
-
Brian and starz,
This video was not tailor made for Jets fans, it’s just a random highlight tape. He had plenty of good plays last season and considering the role we will give him will allow him to use his best ability (rushing the QB), with very little other responsibilities, we should get the best of what he has left.

James in TN says:
I hope he makes Rex mad, and he is cut before the season.

ramble914 says:
He is a pretty good football player, and seems to have something left in the tank.
As said above, he’s on the team.

Cool.
The most impressive: Vs. NE. Brady has ball set at the waist. 99 slaps ball out of his hands, holds onto brady’s right forearm and DRAGS HIM STRAIGHT DOWN BY HIS FOREARM. The worst leverage ever, and he made it look simple.
OK. I’m ready. I just hope he has any of that juice left.

Eddie DiGio says:
I think a lot of Jets fans just have blind hatred toward the guy-
Even when Bruce Smith wasnt Bruce Smith anymore, he still got 10 sacks on a bad Redskins team
Same thing goes for Reggie White or Chris Doleman, all guys who dipped to single digit sack seasons in their mid 30′s, only to post 10+ after 35 years old…
Hate him or not, that is the company Jason Taylor is in….he is one of the greatest pass rushers to ever play football, its not even debateable
-
“OK. I’m ready. I just hope he has any of that juice left.”
That is exactly what Ive been trying to say…
The all time great pass rushers usually can crank out a couple of really productive years towards the end of their careers…
Instead of relying on speed or power, whichever got them to where they are now, they learn leverage and angles, and use their head more than just overpowering or running past OTs like they did as young studs…
Regardless of one’s personal feelings, Jason Taylor is in that class where he is an epic pass rusher…guy’s forgot more about pass rushing than half the guys in the NFL

Xtina says:
Damn that guy is good. I am glad he is on our team and not theirs. That man deserves a SB ring. And now I can come out of the closet with my secret crush on him.
What a great video, too. -

Didn’t watch it. Won’t watch it. Just gonna pretend like he’s not here.

brightfuture says:
Lol the celebration against NE before the touchdown YOUR DOWN 42 TO 14!!!!!!!!!

Nate R. says:
Beast. Our D is going to be down right mean…

Glenn G says:
So is Taylor going to treat the idiot Fin fans when we play the Dolphins the same way he treated that Cowboy fan? If he does he will win me over.

Carlito7 says:
I’m trying. Lord knows I’m trying… but I have to be a little ignorant about this one. Give me at least two years then maybe then I will see him as a Jet, but until then, he will just be that stupid guy on the other team that’s wearing the wrong uniform and keeps making plays for us. Say what you may, I don’t care that’s how I feel. The argument can be made that Favre was here for one year and he was considered a Jet…………….”Whoever said he was a Jet.”

JetsFan65 says:
I have to agree with JR…
I love how Taylor rips off the the Cowboys sign, that is awesome!!!!!! We could use that on our team and not to mention his SACK/PRESSURE ability.
Use guys who hate Taylor, need to get over it. He is a Jet now and that is all that matters!!!!
-
You guys who hate***

ben says:
hes the type of guy to dance and prance on his way to the endzone…against the pats…down 42-14!!!!…he’s still dancing after a pick.
i hate that this guys a jet. it really really bothers me.
-
Glenn,
But complaining and whining about him being a Jet is a better approach? Everyone needs to act their age and stop being so sensitive that Taylor said not-nice things about the fans. We said much, much worse and we definitely deserve anything that gets said (along those lines) from other players because I’ve been to Jets games and we are merciless and brutal. I took it as a compliment when he said those things, it meant we had gotten to him.

To the guys who hate JT:
I’ve never listened to the man, so I don’t hate him. He was just an opponent, so he was wrong by nature. Never listened to ANY football player sayin’ stuff, really. Football is to be watched, not listened to — I have music for that. Plus, no football player ever said anything worth listening to, so why put yourself through that nonsense? Even with all the woofin’ coming out of the Jets last year, I never paid attention to what was actually being said — I was just happy that we had added the cojones to finally be woofin’, too.
Scenario for the haters:
If JT breaks through the line on Dec. 6 in the closing minutes vs. NE, and strip sacks Brady, with someone scooping it up either for a TD or to set up a TD for the O, and this secures a win that cracks open the division or playoff scenario for us, just what would your position be then?Pour moi, I’d believe he’d be the greatest thing since sliced bread at that moment.
Plus, I’d have a lifelong ‘warm & fuzzy’ memory of someone in Green & White flinging Brady around like a rag-doll, with the ball flying off into the air.
This would please me.
That his probable steroid use made him a jerk in earlier years or that he’ll be gonzo next year wouldn’t impact me in the least.
Enjoy the NOW, dudes…
Since the dawn of the Free Agent era, team loyalty (as a player identity thing) is a concept that’s gone the way of the dodo bird.
Rosters in every sport are now revolving doors, so you root for your favorite uniform and enjoy the faces that look out from it for the time they’re here. They’ll soon be gone, replaced by other smiling, well paid faces.
Now, when new owners change the classic uni (listening, Mr. Wilpon?)… Now, THAT’S when fans get downright pissy…
But, players? Naw… just win us a game, dude…

Glenn-
If he does well and the Jets win the superbowl then yes he would probably be remembered as a Jet just like other players have who played most of their careers with other teams, Clemens/Boggs(Yanks), Garnett/Allen(Celtics), Arod(Yanks), Plaxico (Giants), and plenty others.
And i don’t really care who he gets remembered playing for as long as helps us win the Superbowl.
Does that mean he is officially #95?
