He's calling perfect blitzes that get home time and time again against SC and the players can't break down and make a tackle against a QB. Sellers is athletic, but a tackle at the thighs brings anyone down. Is Elko supposed to run onto the field and put their arms on the qb for them? I guess you could say he hasn't taught them how to tackle well enough, but damn. I saw them making great form tackles earlier in the season. Defensive tackling is on the players imo. But it's Elko's job to get them to fix it I guess.

You are correct Sir ! Elko has never taught our players HOW TO TACKLE ! Didn't do it as our DC, and hasn't done it as our HC ! The way we're playing, we should be in a touch football league !

Why do people have to project the results of the latest game to the rest of the season and forget everything else?
It was a bad game.
Learn from it and get better and don't let it happen again

Never forget.
Jimbo clearly did not execute on that play.
Leverage Jimbo! Get in a low stance, position your feet! Head up. You can tell he played QB.
We have to find the inches

It is 100% Elko's job to make sure his players do basic things. Run. Throw. Catch. Block. Tackle. You know, things that are required to do in footbal in order to win games.
He's the head football coach. His job is to win games. You win games by having good players, good coaches, good schemes and executing. His job is to put all of those together. He gets paid extremely well to do that, and when the team does not do that, the head football coach is absolutely responsible because in one capacity or another, he has failed to perform his job.
The whole point is, these guys have been tackling well this season. What the hell was that?
Make tackling great again!

Rat poison.
PFF says we missed 25 tackles... and 19 in the ND game. Other games 11 was the highest. Seems we lose when we don't tackle...HTownMan87 said:

Ban please!! And also add "schmellba995"
Bunch of clueless football fans. Always unhappy in life and *****ing & moaning about other people...constantly.
Elko took 100% responsibility on both sides of that ball. We finally have an accountable coach. He is also Year 1. Grow the F UP some of you. Give Elko a few inches and have some perspective in your lives.
Elko will be gone in 4 years!

it'd require a poaching. Elko ain't about that bad karma though, so we're good. We do only pay him like $7m a year though.Ag Tag said:What kind of scenario do you think might happen?aeon-ag said:

Sip Troll... dude just had the best start since 1920's or something. Get a grip on reality. He's doing fine right now for a first yr HC. SC is legit. And we lost Moss in the 1st Q, who's a massive part of our offensive identity.aeon-ag said:

Arm tackling is bad tacking. Stay in control, hit, wrap, drag.
