We then get there just in time to get juked and miss a tackle. I wish we'd play more man or matchup zone. At least we'd be close enough to instantly make a tackle when they caught the ball. I think we did play a lot more of this on Saturday.Quote:

Included in that was him saying he'd switch back and forth between 3-4 and 4-3. I don't recall ever seeing us in a 4-3 this year. Calvin with his hand on the ground outside doesn't make it a 4-3.Quote:

Right - that's my point. Our guys couldn't tackle worth a damn. And that's a problem that's been ongoing for at least 3 years now. Until that gets cleaned up it won't matter what scheme we run.Quote:
