PFF ranks them as the third-best tackling team in the NFL through three weeks. The Packers do not have a player in the top 45 in missed tackles, according to PFF. The player who might be tasked with covering Harris in the passing game the most, inside linebacker De’Vondre Campbell, has 11 stops this season, tied for sixth in the league. PFF defines a “stop” as “a play where a defender makes a tackle, and the location of the tackle means the play is a successful one for the defense.”

This was something I think several of us have noticed throughout this young season. That said, I credited the lack of missed tackles being more so due to players being so far fucking out of position!

A few (maybe only two) defensive coaches said if they aren't taught how to tackle at a young age, they won't ever be a good tackler. And these guys were saying that basically if they don't have good tackling technique in college, they won't get it in the professional realm either. But they can be good at in college and lose it in the pros.

That RB moved the pile a few times (so did Dillon) but I also liked the stops. Guys were tackled before the first down marker. Love to see that. That's a Joe Barry thing.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
