He was a 3rd down type of back for most of his career and after the Bears signed him, Forte proved he couldn't make the short yardage runs. The Bears plugged in Taylor in short yardage situations and his yards per attempt went down while Forte's went up. Taylor was never that good, but he did an admirable job for the Bears in short yardage and pass blocking. They made the right move to get rid of him in favor if bigger backs like Barber and Bush.

I expected much more out of this signing. Wasn’t used properly…where the screen passes that made him so effective in Minnesota?? I expected much more out of this signing.

Nasty hit. Extended the career of the Bears Adrian Peterson by one year. Saw Kevin Jones’ injury duing the 2009 preseason. Nasty hit. Extended the career of the Bears Adrian Peterson by one year.
