Default Re: Interesting question for football fans

1) Tackling as a DB in highschool is different from tackling 240 pound running backs in the NFL. There are many players in the NFL that have very poor tackling technique. Ed Reed is not one of them. Dante Culpepper, Randy Moss, Micheal Vick etc. would get embassed on defence.

2) Dante Culpepper would get destroyed on the d-line and o-line. Not only is he undersized by at least 35 pounds, but line play, especially o tackle is 80% technique. If you ever gave Culpepper the ball he would fumble it. He has fumbled on a greater percentage of plays than ANY player in NFL history. He averages one per game over his career.
