Missed tackles VIDEO

Good video of poor techniques regarding tackling.

yards after missed/poor tackles - YouTube

This years D will be much improved with better tacklers.
-As a side note this video changed my opinion on Casillas, I no longer think he should be a starter.

Almost seemed like our D was not that fearless. Granted I'm not looking at a 250lb RB running at me but on some of the tackles, you can see the "tackler" brace themselves which I think played a part in a lot of the misses.

Got news for ya..between secondary and Lb's, it's tuff to say who sucked more. 51 and 41 especially.

Dive tackling doesn't work if you don't wrap the ball carrier. I sure hope Spags can teach these boys what a tackle is.....no one tackles that well on our team.

well before Spags; it was all about going for the strip first; that's why on a lot of these missed tackles our secondary look like they are playing patty cake running down the field.

Something else I noticed; with Jenkins/Harper playing near the line, the corners got left on their own way to often.
Wouldn't be so bad if we were getting pressure, but...

... meh, you won most those games anyway ... bringing in Spags should correct it.
