Ok, keep in mind
I'm a fan of WJ3's signing (see my previous posts) he is great at coverage, his man press is outstanding and you see him making solid pattern matching in zone.
But there seems to be a
pattern of not being a fan of frontal contact. Was willing to give him a pass on week 1, first real live contact after shoulder injury, but week 5 against the Ravens you can still clearly see he wants
no part of tackling a guy running at him.
He still had a
really good game, I don't even think he was targeted once, he had
airtight coverage all game.
Just be ready for a couple of infuriating business decisions every know and then, as he doesn't seem to love taking frontal hits.
Ok, he has outside contain... but does he need to have 2 yards outside the field contain?
Clear path to the ball carrier, wants no part of it:
Really, that's your best effort ? Not necessarily asking for a perfect block shed and TFL, but a legit tackle attempt when the runner is past your blocker ?
This one is comical to me. Just a body language thing. Granted it has no effect on the play, and he would have never been the one making the tackle anyway. But just look at the whole D reading run, WJ3 staring at the ball carrier and still back pedaling while everyone else is converging to the ball. The line is clearly run blocking, his guy is clearly coming at him to block, the QB is 15 yards from the RB and not faking anything and he is still back pedaling. It's ok man, you're safe...
