Tackling

After holding out for the entire offseason and preseason, my agent has negotiated what I believe is a fair contract with The Warpath, and I am back.

I want to start where I feel like we left off at the end of last season - our special teams and our secondary need to learn how (and when) to tackle.

I was at the game, so I didn't have the benefit of instant replay (the jumbotrons at fedex suck), but it looked like the secondary had trouble holding on to people. And, obviously, the last drive came down to Rogers (?) missing an open field tackle, which led to Taylor's face mask penalty, setting up the go ahead field goal.

As for special teams, I realize a lot of that has to do with Hall dropping kickoffs at the 15 (or line driving them to the 1), and Frost, well, sucking.

Is it that bad? Or did I miss something while I was distracted by the beers and the eye candy?
