BUt I have seen him make that type of tackle many times. He isn't the tallest guy, maybe he accelerates low and and has gotten used to reaching up cause you really can't grab jersey from behind, they are all so tight these days.

Why doesn't he try and go for the legs? Pro Football players at WR and RB get out of that type of tackle half of the time.

If you are reading numbers - behind the ball carrier - you need to be sure cause you only have one chance.
5RINGS,

If you want to see a real hitter at safety, look no further than Sean Taylor. He put the sledgehammer on Crayton at the end of the first win at Dallas, and it was both vicious and clean (and the resulting incompletion should have been ruled a fumble BTW). To argue that Williams collaring a player is more sound tackling technique on WRs and RBs than hitting and wrapping is ridiculous.
