Hmmm...not sure if this is a good thing. Is it really good that our secondary had the most tackles and such in the NFL? :shrug:

I dont know if that is a blessing or a curse.

It was a curse on Sunday in the W-L column. I don't think this is a list the Cardinals want to dominate.

I don't think it's necessarily a curse due to the team that we played.

However, having said that, it's not normally a good sign when your DB's are the leading tacklers on the team.

You would expect that that should be linebackers.

DB tackles generally equate with a lot of receptions and/or holes in the "front 7" on running plays...neither of which are something to be proud of.

Does anyone else think there might be law in this system when a CB like Champ Bailey (who happens to be featured in the intro paragraph) is last on the list? That guy almost single-handedly shut down the Chiefs' offense by making Gonz a non-factor.

Sometimes are CBs look worse than suggested

Why? We still have no freaking pass rush. The DL guys can't stop the run either so our safeties have to move forward screwing them even more if it does turn out to be a pass. UHGGGG!!!

That's what I was thinkin.

Why did we have 18 solos from the CB position?

Seems kinda high don't ya think?

Was in the Ram offense?

Was it that our linebackers weren't helpin out?

Was it that our middle was so strong that they ran outside? :shrug:

:rolleyes:

Against an offense that throws every down your DBs are going to have more tackles and against a team that runs everydown your LBs will have more tackles. If we were playing an offense like Baltimores and our DBs had more tackles, that would be bad.

I do not understand this ranking system. What detrmines who is #1 Michael Lewis had more tackles and solo's than Starks and he is #3, Donnie Abraham fior the Jest had 5 tackles an INT, a FF a Sack and a TD and he was listed at #60. This is pretty stupid.
