Just thought the "our guys look weak b/c they don't always drive the runner backwards" was a little retardy.
Where did it say that? Nice strawman.
Of greater concern to me is the fact that our defensive players, by and large, are still a step slow and pretty weak. We're now into our seventh straight season where our guys usually get dragged forward when they tackle a ballcarrier, they get caught up in blocks, and they routinely get shrugged off by the ballcarrier.
No need to be a jackass, same side here
You posted a paraphrase of my post that you then labeled "retardy." But your paraphrase means something very different than what the original post actually said. I'm not concerned because our defense
doesn't always drive the ballcarrier backwards. I'm concerned because they
almost never do.
The symptoms I listed tend to indicate a lack of physicality/speed and a tentativeness that, when manifested consistently over an extended period of time (as I stated), will generally correlate with subpar defensive performance.
That being said, here's a beer. Same side.
