Gate? I can see why Botts reluctant to blitz a lot. Pujols and Nolan are passers who run when forced. Melville much like Shaf he runs . Blitzing opens lanes for him. That said,think insidr blitzes by a LB and a S could have disrupted Gate O.
Tackling has become a lost art throughout football. I can probably count the number of form tackles I’ve seen this year on one hand. It is not taught and rarely practiced. Coaches no longer run bulldogs or nutcracker drills in practice. This past year, I saw a recently developed mobile tackling dummy that many teams are using to safely simulate live tackling. May be a worthy investment for us.
