      Yeah - that was a bad miss, but overall Woods has improved his tackling this PS . . . . . . . . . remains to be seen if it's good enough . . . . . . .

        That's good. They can really use the love right now. Especially the Maui peeps.

            This is my perspective, better said here. I saw a step up but is it enough? I’m betting he cracks the code this year, others can lay the odds.

              He's much more aggressive this year, but I'm somewhat concerned about the technique he's demonstrated this PS (head down a lot). Seems like he's decided to just fling his body into the ball carrier and hope for the best. He's got a good chance of injuring himself seriously unless he get's it cleaned up . . . . .

                Oh my, sounds like Launchwhiffy 2.0...the next time I see him do that, if he whiffs, I guess I'll have to start calling him Finwhiffy...

                    Great observation. Now that you mention it, I have seen the same thing. His form looks awful and it is going to lead to penalties and maybe him getting injured if he doesn’t clean it up (in addition to missed tackles). It looks as if there is no way he can see what he is hitting. I guess the one bit of good news is that he is trying to actually make the tackle.
