What do you think happened to cause that? Oline play, commitment to the run game, other factors? I've seen in JN how much you guys like him as a player. Hoping y'all have some insight on why he kept getting better last year.

Those two things, tilted towards the latter.

He had some instances earlier in the season where it looked like the defense had no answer for him, and yet we would go with a long string of passing plays instead of allowing him to suck in the defense and open up the play action game.  I believe that Taylor got humbled by that a bit...
