Taylor recorded five tackles, an interception return for a touchdown, a sack and two forced fumbles in the Dolphins' 24-20 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Taylor forced a fumble early in the fourth quarter that teammate Yeremiah Bell recovered, setting up a touchdown that gave Miami a 17-13 lead. Later in the final period, Taylor intercepted a pass from Minnesota quarterback Brad Johnson and raced 51 yards for the decisive score. The TD was the seventh of his career, tying him with former New York Giant George Martin for the most by any NFL defensive lineman. Taylor won his sixth career Player of the Week honor in Week Nine after Miami's 31-13 victory over the Chicago Bears on November 5. He made several pivotal plays in the game, including a 20-yard interception return for a touchdown. He also recorded three tackles, a sack and a forced fumble for the Dolphins, who handed the Bears their first loss of the season.


Taylor himself has won 2 games this year for us. No Doubt!! Chicago and Vikes. Now Chicago only because he gave Rex extreme happy feet with constant pressure, which helped all those INT's. Granted its a team game, but Taylor is a difference maker.

we went three and outonthat fumble, it was his second one that Hill returned for a TD that got us to 17-13.

Still he deserved the defensive Player of the Week and he deserves to be included as Player of Year, if not actually win it out right. No other player on D has been so integral to their wins as has Taylor has for the Dolphins.

it was roth who knocked it loose on that play
 
Well deserved, I wonder what the record is for the number of player of the week awards for one season?
 
Normally, Zach Thomas is the 'quarterback' of the defense.

This year, it is JT. Not that JT has been bad in years past (the man is a beast), but this year Zach seems to have lost a step or two...but Jason is inspring his team week after week.

Nothing makes me happier (or makes me laugh harder) than watching Jason sprint towards the end zone. The last two times I've taken my annual sabbatical to Dolphin Stadium, JT has scored.

And I believe he has more TDs than Booker right now.
