Look at this form tackle on AP.

Head up, low at the point of attack, fires through his hips into the ballcarrier and through the ballcarrier, drivers his feet,and drives him to the group. You just don't see this too often anymore.

just imagine how dominant AP would be if he had a lower pad level in the hole.

He is a lot like Eric Dickerson in that aspect. I guess it works for them.

Its probably because of his height. Hes big at 6'2 so its harder for him to get low. Now if he could get low like Mike Turner...he probably would have had 2000 yards this year

Willis picking up JV a few yrs back was just bad. JV's legs were still running like he was still on the ground

thats how every linebacker should be able to tackle someone.

any lower it would similar to folkstyle wrestling for single and double leg takedowns.
