Quote:These guys are paid professionals and they need help with how to tackle? Seriously? That's basic football 101 stuff! How did these guys get on a college team, much less a pro team, if they don't have a handle on something as fundamental as tackling? It boggles the mind...
 

You're right. There are never any first and second year linebackers and safeties in the NFL that could benefit from pro-level coaching. They come out of college fully adjusted to tackling the top-tier NFL running backs and receivers in the open field.  

 

Of course they've learned fundamentals, but this is a game of inches and coaching on finer details will absolutely make a difference at the pro level. 

 

Besides  - I never said that they need to learn "how" to tackle. They need help in preventing the missed tackles.  Aside from the one-on-one, open field misses - there are tons of missed tackles resulting from players not "staying home" in the scheme and gap misfits. That stuff is clearly coachable and several players aren't executing consistently.
