[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 371543, member: 735"] Sometimes athleticism shortcomings lead to tackle attempts aimed at the hips appear instead to be aimed at knees or ankles. Athleticism matters and lack of same lead to missed tackles. That said. We have more inconsistencies than I think we should on D. Guys that will play fundamentals sound one play and not the next. It is kinda maddening but I don't pretend to know the exact causes or where the blame most soundly sits. On O this year. I think a lot of our problems on the line were due to lack of....again depth. Injuries took a toll. On top of that we had a 2st year starting QB absolutely shine at times when rushing. But he also made some bad reads, didn't attack the option defender as aggressively as he should at times. More importantly though he struggled to make as many completions as we needed. I'm no expert and never claimed to be. I think most of our resident experts, steebu-Flea-Vamos-ballin, have taken a break from the forum. Probably something I should do also. But I appreciate op's post and honest inquiry. Just don't expect the convinced non experts to not chime in. Others have and so did I.:cigar: [/QUOTE]
