You would think I would remember these missed tackles, being as I love watching the guy play. So true about him being a rookie and
playing as well as he has. Whit and Leon struggled as rookies, true. Actually pretty crazy how well Cordell has played and being from
such a small college, his good play has surprised me more than anybody without question.
Color me surprised as I have watched every game and don't remember many whiffs from CTB at all. Like you said, he should
improve over time if this is a real thing. The weakness of CTB coming out was double moves and playing too aggressive, I have
seen this from him if we are looking at his weakness. I don't think it is tackling from watching him play, he tackles low with good
leverage and lowers his shoulder while keeping his head up. That is technically sound tackling.
Well said, promising to say the least.
CTB was the one that finished off that 4th and 1 play the Rats ran with a 300 LB fullback that Ossai blew up and caused the RB to stutter step and CTB finished him off from the side. No way in hell does a Dre Kirkpatrick or many other CBs we have had (WJIII) make that play and it was a huge stuff.
