He is a lightly built guy, and probably isn't quite 100% yet on top of it, so I will deal with the occasional miss as long as receivers continue wearing him like a cape

Thats much more important to me than him being some monster tackler

Don't misunderstand my argument.
Im not saying he's not willing. Im not saying i need him to be a monster tackler. Im asking him to be an adequate, competent tackler.
Right now, he's the worst tackler i've seen the Chiefs field this season.
My entire argument is very simple and understandable, don't let ****-nuts Staylor misconstrue you with his strawman bullshit.
Im tired of my argument, and his weakness, being excused because of his allegedly great cover skills.
Im fine with his cover skills, but lets not blow that shit out or proportion either, and its NOT an excuse for his lacking in other departments.
Assholes like Staylor keep dismissing his dismal tackling because supposedly he's some great cover corner, even trying to draw comparisons to Deion Sanders
I'm saying his dismal tackling is going to bite us in the ass. It's going to cost this defense opportunities to get off the field.
And WE'VE ALREADY SEEN IT. You can't argue against something that's already happened!
That makes no ****ing sense.
