The Art of Tackling has been lost somewhere from the NFL Level all the way down to the Youth Level. Coaches or Instructors preach Low Man wins almost all the Time but what is the Perfect Tackle?

The Definition of a Perfect Tackle is...Squaring the Ball-Carrier up Head Up staying low while bending at the Knees with a wide base while pushing up with your Legs through the Ball-Carrier

The NFL's Best is about so much getting a Textbook Hit as it is getting to the Pigskin, The Top 10 Players that close on the Pigskin, shed blocks, might need assistance, might go Solo, and might be Rookies while leading their Teams in Tackles.

10. D. JOHNSON ILB #ChiefsNation 78 (67)

Greenway has been the Heart and Soul of the #PurplePeople and that D is Solid up the Middle because of #52 in Purple #KinnickStadiumNation Stand Up!

Mayo has been all that from Day 1 in Foxboro but from the Looks of it he might be the Only Patriot tackling in 2012.

Kuechly was by graded by many as the #1 Backer in the 2012 April NFL Draft and he has lived up to his Billing and what was on Tape #TheEyeInTheSkyDontLie

Lauranaitis was tackling at Birth and he tackled in HS in Minnesota, tackled for High Street Columbus U Fame, and now he is hitting the Tackling Dummies on Sunday #DadProWrestler

David was a Heat-Seeking Missile for Big Red Lincoln and like Kuechly has a Nose for the Pigskin and who is carrying it #ARealPirateDavidIs

Wagner is one of many Finds for Seahawks Lead Man Carroll and he along with OLB KJ Wright and DE Bruce Irvin has the #12thMan near Space Needle D Top Shelf #TheyDontEatSkittlesLikeBEASTmode

Bowman might be better than Teammate Willis and when you turn on the Tape and they didn't have Numbers on their Jerseys...Wow! #SameFreakinGuy #NinersDSuperPhysical

Lofton left the Dirty Birds and got some revenge Last Sunday vs Falcons but he is the Only Player tackling in that Front Seven #SaintsDHorrendous

Woodyard of the Broncos is One of a handful of Backers for the Orange Crush that will Hit you and won't stop until the 3d Whistle then most likely #YellowLaundry

Jenkins was all that as a Corner at the Shoe in Columbus Ohio for O-H-I-O...now many projected in the Draft he would be a better Safety and they were right on for the Piscataway, New Jersey Native...

Johnson was on Display vs Steelers Last Monday and he Flies to the Ball and there was a Reason why he was a True Freshman wearing #11 for #HookemHorns UT Austin Starting #ThatsABadMan D.J. Is

3 Rookies in the Mix as Top Sunday Tacklers and all will be going to Hawaii sooner or later if Roger That doesn't cancel Pro Bowl...

Lauranaitis , Johnson, and David are doing it mostly by the Solo Tackles...

All these Players were Highly-Productive in College Football and now look...the tape never lies and Teams Draft what they Draft as most are Creatures of Habit...
