I never played organized football, so I want to learn about the action called the "tackle" because "just not tackling well" seems to be the most popular answer coaches have for "why did we lose?"
Is it a lack of effort?
Lack of concentration?
Lack of skill?
Many times I see replays of "missed tackles" and I'm thinking, " he was lucky to get a hand on him, much less wrap his arms around him and drive him with his shoulder."
When is a tackle "missed" v. the guy w/ the ball is just quicker, stronger, or faster?
Appreciate your comments in advance.
