Taylor: "If you ever get used to losing or get better with it... you need to get your ass out"

The Miami Dolphins are off to an 0-5 start in their 2011 NFL campaign.

The Dolphins are familiar with having a zero followed by a bigger number in their record, as Miami lost its first 13 games in 2007. Veteran linebacker (then defensive end) Jason Taylor was there then, and he’s there now.

And according to Taylor, there’s no getting used to starting the first chunk of the season winless.

“0-5 is 0-5. If you ever get used to losing and get better with it, then you need to get your ass out and do something else,” Taylor told the Miami media Thursday. “It’s as simple as that.

“0-5 is tough regardless of what you’re doing, whether you’re playing Monopoly, checkers or football.”

Miami most recently lost to the New York Jets Monday and will host the Denver Broncos Sunday.
