You eliminate half of the penalties and Taylor is a plus starter.

So you believe that 60 yards (half of the penalty yardage against him last season) in penalties over a 17 game season AND the playoffs is the difference between Jawaan Taylor being someone that should be benched and him being a plus starter?
Guys...y'all get too hung up on these penalties. Guy was responsible for about 6 penalty yards per game last year. he had 115 penalty yards against in 19 games.
Do that again next year and otherwise be a plus pass protector and I will give exactly ZERO shits about the penalties.
Cut those down to nothing but become a less effective pass protector and THEN I'll talk about benching you.
We just put WAY too much weight on the penalties. Y'all act like he was penalized 2-3 times/gm every single game. He had 8 games last year where he wasn't penalized (same number of regular season games as where he was). The narrative with the guy has just gone WAY overboard.
