Taylor is that kind of player. He can give them a very nice little package in that offense, something that's going to be very tough to stop.

Anytime you've got a player that can just come out and dictate the game like that, you've got an edge. That first touchdown took the air out of the crowd.

Early on, it's natural that you take it for granted (you'll win a Super Bowl). You're like, 'Oh, this is my first year, my second year, my third, fourth.' Then you start getting around eight and nine and you start looking at rosters and there are not too many people that have nine or 10 after their name in (years of) experience.

Names are irrelevant. All we want to be is the Carolina defensive line.

He's the one consistent thing back there through all the coaches. From '97 on up, he's been the one constant thing that's been back there. When you got a piece like that, you don't replace that. You replace the stuff around him until you find the right combination, and that's what they've done.

We challenged ourselves this week to know the Giants better than they knew themselves.
