Poor Tackling on defense=Loss

[traincar]

We lost this game because of a basic inability- the inability to tackle someone properly. We tried arm tackling, like we play Pop Warner football, and we tried tackling up high, like we were fighting in the UFC or something. We had our hands on them, we just never bring them down to the ground because we don't "stick 'em and wrap them up". We let them parade up and down the field on us like we were a NY runway, and they were supermodels!

You're right. I thought we had a lot of emphasis on fundamentals and communication in camp. Guess it didn't take or wasn't taught very well. That was one of the worst tackling performances I've seen from us.

Thats coaching and fundamentals. They have neither. Nothing to see here move along
