Why for 2 season's now these guys can't tackle.

What in the world are you even talking about? Last year, we had the 4th ranked defense in the entire league. On top of that, our defensive efforts against the Falcons and the Bucs on the road were OUTSTANDING. We shut down the Pittsburgh Steelers. Yes, our defense is problematic this year, but please don't look at the one playoff game in Seattle and call that an entire season of bad tackling. Our tackling last season was damn good as a whole.

Some very good points except for last years tackling. We just look worse missing tackles this year.........just a little bit slower.

ALL missed tackles by your team look horrible.

We've just had waaaaaaay to many so far. I don't get it.

Maybe we should go back to teaching TACKLING instead of stripping.

Hell these guys are football players - not dancers!!
