I agree on that.

It's just that we see bad to awful tackling technique all the time and this kid is getting ripped for one missed tackle because it came at the worst time possible.

Yes he was beyond bad on that play, but his offense didn't score any points in the first half, his HOF QB had a pretty bad game, under threw balls, had 2 picks (one of those was 100% on Brees), and his Head Coach made bad decisions and lost 2 time outs that could have been useful late in the game.
And by the way, the same kid, Marcus William, had an interception that set the 2nd Saints' TD and put them back in the game.

And I'm not saying you're ripping him, it's just I feel bad for this kid. Yeah he's a pro and gets paid a lot of money and should be able to make this tackle but he's still a 21 years old human being who made a mistake a lot of veteran players do all the time.
