Thomas Davis's missed tackle


Recommended Posts

I think this play was the turning point in the game.  After that missed tackle and long run.

 

TD went crazy.  The man was possessed.  He wasn't just tackling, he was crushing people.  Some of the hits he had after that missed tackle I could feel.

 

Luke and TD shift to a gear that we need to stay in.  Our defense turned out a great second half and it was because of the intensity of these two LBers.

 

 

Anybody else notice the change after that missed tackle?

I've yet to watch the game off my DVR and I missed whatever tackle you're referring to live, but I noticed a fire in TD and Luke yesterday that I haven't seen much before and that's saying something... I saw both of them just put punishing hits on guys yesterday that normal men would not have gotten up from.

Is this missed tackle everyone is referring to the one where Forte runs to the right, gets hit by TD, but then bounced off of it for like a 17 yard gain?

Edit: http://www.gfycat.com/ForcefulHealthyBlackbird my memory is way too fuzzy. Is it this play?

 

Yes that was it.  TD hit him good but Forte Lowered his shoulder and bounce off.  It pissed TD off.

    • When we drafted Luke, we already had Cam, Smith, Olsen, Stewart, Deangleo, Gross, Kalil, CJ, Hardy, Beason, TD, Gamble (and maybe more I'm forgetting), we had a lot of great pieces in place. Going pure BPA for a player with Luke's potential when the LB you already have is different when you already have all those pieces in place.  Our OL right now is probably in a better shape than that team and our RBs and TE have potential compared to proven vets back then, but after that, the 2012 roster was in a far better shape than we are right now. We need a #1 WR, DEs, LBs, DBs, C, and depending who you ask a QB.  Going BPA at pick #5 when that player is a DT and your current best player on either side of the ball is a DT, seems irresponsible. If he's the only player they like that high left, then you trade back and go with position of more need at a slot that makes sense for the player while adding other picks.  If you trade back and he falls because other teams don't need/want a DT, then you consider him at that point because of the value.    
    • This sounds like the same back and forth when we drafted a LB when we already had a LB or as mentioned prior back to back DLs. I want the BPA, if it is another DT so be it. (No not a kicker/punter for those people that think they are funny))
