He had a long way to go for that one. The tackle blocked into the LDT on the play, Goff was pulling right on the play and the tackle spot was where the defensive player came through. The defender/linebacker broke to his left immediately, despite Cassel's turn in the opposite direction. From the looks of it, he either keyed on the RB and got the correct read immediately or, less likely from what I'm seeing, his assignment called for him to slash left at the snap. I can't determine this for certain, especially because LJ is out of the screen at the snap.
I don't know that Niswanger deserves too much derision on this one.
