Sheard: Phil Taylor is a difference maker
Jabaal Sheard - DL - Cleveland Browns
Nov. 9, 2012 - 7:10 PM ET

Browns LE Jabaal Sheard believes NT Phil Taylor's return to the lineup in Week 9 helped spike his production.

Taylor is a 330-plus-pound mammoth defensive tackle, and he commands double teams. "Having Phil back was a big part of my success last week," Sheard said. "Even though they were sliding toward us, when Big Phil's in there, he takes up two people. So, it's like one-on-one on the outside." Sheard had eight tackles and a sack in last week's loss to Baltimore, and he should stay hot.
