Add to that the fact that the defensive line's play is to absorb blockers on the run, to allow the linebackers to make those tackles. There's a reason inside linebackers in our system are at the top, or near the top in tackles every week, and season. With the double teams on those two, even when they do get a shot at a tackle, it's rarely one that allows them to put a shoulder into the ball carrier, usually nothing more than an attempted arm tackle.It bothers me that our TEs don't seem to get the idea that the primary reason the majority of them are on the team is to throw blocks that keep defenders off our QB, turn an edge on outside runs, and to throw blocks on plays like screens, to give RBs and WRs an opportunity to get YAC on screens, and short outs. Lewis is the only one who understands that philosophy, now that Tonyan is out.Excellent evaluations. Thank you!</blockquote>
