PFF: Missed Tackles

Two guys you'd expect to see on a list like this, and one you wouldn't. Confirming my earlier suspicions that he's one of the most solid players in the NFL today, Israel Idonije tops the list of tackles per miss. He did not miss on a single tackle this past season, with about 80 tackles/sacks to his name. Peanut is another solid guy, registering 14 misses in nearly 250 tackles, ranking 8th in the DBs. Surprisingly, Danieal Manning was 2nd on that list, 27.57 tackles per miss. On the wrong side of this scale is a guy that we love beyond almost anybody else on this team. What happened, Lance Briggs? 7.63 tackles per miss? 4th worst in the NFL? That's wrong! And, just to screw with people, take a look at the worst DBs in the NFL in terms of tackle rate. Asante Samuel is #1. Nnamdi is #4. Given that our system is basically predicated on our Corners making tackles, why would you want those guys sitting there? [/sarcasm]
