The resident Cowboys Chick Posts: 648 Group: SUPER MOD SQUAD Member #211 Joined: February 18, 2007	End in sight for Taylor Wants to pass Jim Brown By Vic Ketchman, jaguars.com Fred Taylor has his sights set on Jim Brown. “I’m going to have a better season. I’m on a mission. I’m just trying to catch Jim Brown and then we’ll close the curtains,” Taylor told jaguars.com during a visit to Jacksonville Municipal Stadium on Wednesday. Taylor has rushed for 10,715 yards in his 10-year career. Brown rushed for 12,312 in nine seasons with the Cleveland Browns. Taylor, therefore, needs 1,598 yards to move past Brown and into eighth place on the NFL’s all-time rushing list. “My admiration for what he did; it’s within reach,” Taylor said of Brown and his rushing total, which stood for nearly 20 years as the figure all running backs were chasing. “He’s a guy I respect; to do what he did statistically and the way he put fear in defenses, and he did all of that in nine years,” Taylor added. Taylor said he recently “bumped” into Brown in Miami’s South Beach. “I said hello. He said, ‘The way you run the ball, keep it up.’” The 2007 season was one of Taylor’s best. From a standpoint of personal fulfillment and acclaim, it was without a doubt his best. He became one of the league’s most beloved and celebrated players and he capped the season with his first-ever appearance in the Pro Bowl. “Last year was the most fun I had in football. Just everything; the guys, the team. I was like, please, don’t break this up. It took us back to 1998, ’99. You talk about bringing attention to a city?” Taylor said. Taylor has three years remaining on his contract, but if he’s serious about closing the “curtains” after he passes Brown, Taylor could bow out a year prior to playing out his current deal.
