Irvin missed the first Philadelphia game last year as he served a drug suspension. But in the second game he burned young Taylor on seven catches for 89 yards. In 1995, Irvin got the best of Taylor with eight catches for 115 yards and a touchdown, but Taylor bounced back by holding Irvin to three catches for 40 yards in the rematch. Taylor said he likes the challenge. It makes for a good matchup.
Most guys can do one or the other.
He can do both. Irvin, who had the best training camp of his career, has caught 11 passes for 171 yards and two touchdowns as the Cowboys started the season 1-1. He was held to only four catches last week by Arizona's Aeneas Williams. I caught a touchdown pass and the officials ruled I was out of bounds. We've got to get in focus.
