Why don't defensive backs tackle anymore?
Posted by cctigerphd on 11/9/08 at 5:24 pm
I'm getting mighty tired of blown tackles! These kids all are trying to strip the ball instead of making a solid tackle. Take out their legs for God's sake because we're hemorrhaging yards in hopes for a big play!

Lee has made some stupid throws. And he can't throw across his body. But let's skip the obvious. Lee isn't being well-served by his receivers. What the hell is Brandon LaFell's problem. That kid cannot hold on to the ball. This young QB needs some heads-up solid play from his receiver corps, not dropped ball after dropped ball!
re: Miles Out-coached...?

No, I wouldn't say Miles was out coached at all. Nick Saban barely left town with a victory. That's amazing.
The staff did make a few dumb calls. Run the option on 3rd and 1? And then punt on 4th and 2 at the Bama 35. Hell, we punted and they got it at the 15--next play they were back at the 35. I'd liked to have seen Miles take a chance there--I think it would have worked. This game was coached too conservatively.
And Gary Crowton needs to learn that he doesn't have a star QB out there. He likes the razzle-dazzle and cute plays. That's not going to work with Lee--or any other young QB for that matter. Use Charles Scott a lot and create opportunities for safe throws outside of the hash marks (Lee can't throw across his body). Keep it simple stupid!

re: Don't blame Lee blame Miles

You want to blame somebody? Blame Ryan Perrilloux for being stupid and blowing a once in a lifetime chance. Les Miles is an awesome coach and we're fortunate to have him here with a long-term contract.
That said, I wasn't thrilled with our coaching staff on Saturday. They weren't bad, but they weren't good, either. Run the option on 3rd and 1? And then punt on 4th and 2 at the Bama 35.
