Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Would BBK make this tackle?

    Wellington's gotta make that play. Yes, Manu maybe isn't fast enough to shoot that gap and bring him down from the backside, and I'd love if he was, but I can't fault his angle. Flattens immediately, just can't get there. Wellington's gotta stack and shed to get into that lane and not get pinned inside.

    Let's not just pick one scapegoat for all our ills. ALL of our ILBs have played poorly this year. ALL.

    They all suck. We should play the younger ones because they have chance to get better. The SR are a done product.....that sucks

    1) It was a well blocked play by the offense
    2) BBK probably limits it to an 8 yard gain
    3) Cam W. gets most of the blame for adding 40 yards to the run

    Give SC credit for the first 10 yards, blame the LB for the next 20 and the safety for the last 40.

    We aren’t playing for 2021. We’re playing for the PAC 12 title this year. You gotta play the best players. Like it or not, Tafisi and Sirmon are worse. Both Manu and Wellington have made impact plays. The back ups haven’t.
    Same with the WR.

    Manu’s sack against SC. Wellington’s fumble return.

    The pickings are slim but it has happened.

    Would BBK be asked to marry your daughter? While in the film room.

    Wellington has a unique ability to Velcro himself to the nearest offensive player.

    When he isnt velcroing himself to blockers and actually in the correct hole he tackles like a complete pussy doing this awkward standing shoulder dive into the ground infront of the RB waiting to get run over that always gives up an extra 2-3 yards.

    Just from that little highlight video alone...

    Velcro


    Pussy tackle


    Pussy "tackle" 2.0


    Pussy goaline effort


    Bonus lol LBs




    Manu is slow and not a good LB but the fact that Wellington, with his supposed physical tools, often plays worse and softer is ridiculous.
