Is for somebody to bring the lumber !!! Just one big time hit on somebody, it will spur the rest of the defense into saying, its ok to knock the crap out of somebody. Who is going to step up and deliver the crushing blow to lead this team to a victory ? Let Cam talk to the troops.
Cheers

Blair did it against the Bears but lowered his helmet and was penalized. It was a true slobberknocker hit though.

Don't disagree but I'd even settle for sure tackling instead of just rubbing off the opponent.

I read that yesterday's practice was "physical" and am hoping that makes a difference this week. We'll see.

Is for Kam to be an assistant coach or even better, a position head coach (safety or LB). He seems to be around practice at times anyway.

This is relevant to the current excuse people are using on the poor tackling.

The excuse is that we are playing a bit too emotional, guys are going for the big hit, forgetting to wrap up, etc.

If that is the case, we should be seeing more penalties on defense for playing too aggressively. We aren't.
It also feels like the opposite. We are playing tentative and almost soft, WHILE missing tackles.

If we were getting roughness penalties or guys were jumping the gun, with offsides - that could be explained.
But we aren't yet (or don't seem to?) so like the OP, I would like a bit more aggressiveness - if not embracing the violence, than we are seeing so far.

What nonsense is this? What NFL are you watching?

First of all, it is NFL 2022 where players have puffy helmets in practice. No one is allowed to bring the lumber, that is a 15-yard penalty and an ejection. They don't play football like that anymore.

Second of all his name is Kameron Darnel Chancellor or Bam Bam Kam. His all-time best hit against Vernon Davis was flagged for 15 yards and that was 10 years ago.

Looked like the same problem they have had for several years: They let the blockers and ball carriers come to them instead of being aggressive and attacking.
