re: It just hit me… WTF has Blake Baker been doing?

He's the GOAT at tackling guys 15+ yards down field

I see him do that, but mainly he ends up cleaning up another player’s mistake. Also, he had 8 solo tackles out of his 18 total, 1 sack, 1 tackle for loss, and 1 forced fumble.
If there’s any thing he could clean up in his game, it’s getting off blocks better and filling holes.
I don’t know if he’s not strong enough, doesn’t use his hands properly, is too hesitant, or what. But big runs up the middle (to me, that’s 5 yards or more) are usually due to miscues like these for both linebackers.
