Saints Practice Tackling...Uhh

tweeky · 09-11-2003, 07:45 AM

From NOLA:

In the wake of poor tackling against Seattle, coaches had the secondary players tackling a practice-sled dummy during drills Wednesday to reinforce proper technique.

WTF took so long? And why is it only the DB's?
Our LB's could use some practice also.

What I remember was Bellamy grabbing the ball-carrier, then falling off like he stopped breathing, multiple times.

That\'s vintage Jay Bellamy BnB. You would\'t want to change that would you? At least Hawthorne\'s not on the field. Then we would get, Hawthorne getting burned followed by Bellamy missing a tackle... oh yeah, the receiver in question was a girl scout.
