Re: My X-factor
I've said that every since Mike McKenzie came back that we started imitating his sloppy tackling instead of wrapping up.

Re: My X-factor
They worry too much about stripping the ball instead of tackling sometimes.

Re: My X-factor
They kill me with that poor tackling sh!t. Popping a guy, falling to the ground, and hoping the runner decides to fall down too. We have to make tackles and not let guys get away like we did with AP two weeks ago. When we catch someone behind the line of scrimmage, we ned to close the deal. When receivers make a catch, the play needs to end right there. Knocking the ball loose or trying to create turnovers is one thing, giving up 7-15 yards after touch is totally something else. Allowing potential 3 yard losses to become 11 yard gains will change the outcome of the contest. If we tackle well, we will win.
