The is the key point dizzle. He screws up and misses tackles at the wrong time. Let him go to a rugby practice if he wants to learn how to tackle. No one does it better than ruggers.

Absolutely, the technique of a perfect form tackle is all too rare in the NFL now. Whereas it's just the norm in Rugby.

The scouting reports on Marcus pre draft were accurate ...

"Not physical, lacks strength to tackle NFL RB's at the second level, much more of a drag-down (see George Kittle play) tackler".

Marcus has a lot of sure tacklers around him (Demario, Nigel B, Ceedy, Jenkins) so if he can't get it together in 2020 ... go find his replacement in 2021 via Free Agency or the draft.

3 years in, at this level you shouldn't be "learning" to tackle when the safety position is the last line of defense.
