Taylors Runs Hard in Tampa Bay
The Jacksonville Jaguars played their third preseason game of 2008 on August 23 in Tampa Bay against the Bucs. Fred Taylor ran hard on 7 carries for 26 yards. While that may only be 3.7 yards per carry, it doesn’t matter. The defense knew Fred was going to run so they schemed around it. The important thing is that Freddy ran hard for a few carries and came out strong and healthy.
When interviewed after the game, Fred was a little hard on the offense, always seeing room for improvement. “The defense came out and started excellent and created turnovers. … That is the type of football we definitely want to try and play this year,” Jacksonville running back Fred Taylor said. “Offensively, we capitalized and did some good things. But of course, we know we can get better.”
The Jags will play their final preseason game this coming weekend against Washington.
