dman20084 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 You guys can call me crazy but i think that Zach Taylor is by far the toughest player on the team without a doubt. I love how he will stand in the pocket and take a hit for the team without thinking twice about it. He's also one heck of a passer. What does everybody else think about this? Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 First of all, WELCOME. Yes ,Taylor is a warrior. He is willing to take the hit if it benifits his team. A true team player. Quote Link to comment
hskrfannnwk Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Agreed.. I like that he is willing to take a hit. Quote Link to comment
BLKSHIRTD Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 true he has shown us this year that he is one tuff S.O.B! taking all kinds of hits but you also have to admit that he is tuff mentally from all bad talking that some of us huskers fans have done, and he'll be even alot tuffer next year when i gurantee that he get hit nearly as much as he did this year Quote Link to comment
StuckinChicago Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Toughest... tied, with Cory Ross, who carried this team on his back last year while playing nearly every game injury, but it was certainly nice to have TWO tough Sob's out there carrying the team, and when one threw to the other, artistry in motion.

huskerhonk Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 One tough sob-just wish that he maybe would get his coconut out of the way of some of those collisions. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 i will tell you this......if Beck is going to beat him out next year he will have to play his ass-off! taylor can scramble for positive yards too.....he looked great last Saturday! Â Â hunter Quote Link to comment
Roy CO HSKR Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 This is an ideal circumstance for Beck. It is obvious he isn't ready and this next year will be a great learning situation for him without being thrown to the wolves as a starter. That would set his pyche back. Next year with a stronger team he'll ge a chance to get more reps like at the end of the CU game. Quote Link to comment
bigredhusker427 Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I agree, Taylor is a tough cookie. Quote Link to comment

He scrambled like I have never seen before. Quote Link to comment
Redman Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Agreed. Taylor is physically and mentally tough, but above all he has great charactor. Keep up the good work Zac! GBR Quote Link to comment
IlliniHusker Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Zac is a surprising warrior for the Big Red. I say "surprising" because his background is OU - a long time rival of NU! Its obvious that Zac has become a "Husker" in the truest sense of the word. Does that mean the true spirit of Nebraska football extends to players who love this game for what it is? Who respond to loyal fans? Who care more for the tradition and University than they care for NFL $ ....? Yes! Yes! and Hell Yes! Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 i read an interview with him in LJS or OWH and the reporter asked if he was going to be more cautious when running the ball after the hit he took against KSU. he replied "if the team needs me to get an extra yard i am going to try to get the extra yard"  did anyone see him slide to avoid a hit on friday? i dont remember if he did but i do remember him puttint his head down trying to get the first down on a couple of scrambles.  did anyone notice the CU players trying to put thier shoulders or helmet to Zac's helmet. maybe i was looking at things harder then i should but it sure seemed that way to me  GBR-------Restore the Order Quote Link to comment
StuckinChicago Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 He hasnt slid once this year, in any game, ever. Maybe thats why i have heart problems. Quote Link to comment
