Don’t get me wrong, tranquil had a good game. But that was one of those frustrating plays, when he executed everything right, but then couldn’t make the tackle.

 

Nothing more frustrating when you’re scouting prospects and you want to like someone and you see them do that a couple times. It’s like “can I honestly give him a good grade for this play?”

No, you can't. Because that's how you end up thinking Darron Lee is a first-round pick.

TL;DR

Tackling should be quantified as an elite skill and measurable in a game where tackling is such a high priority, regardless of the position or other measurables.

And this is why I actually like watching Northwestern play defense. They're year in and year out the best tackling team in the nation despite their 2 and 3 star talent.
