Tackling felt like a week-to-week problem with the defense this year. For example, and mind you I love Logan Wilson, it seemed like he'd aggressively go after a ball carrier and outright miss or bounce off the offensive player. Pratt, Turner, and other DBs seemed to have this issue throughout the season. I don't know if they were over aggressive, had bad angles, or just didn't stick to the fundamentals.
