Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 604874">Here's an interesting follow-up to the topic of Hawk's tackling incompetency:<a href="https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2015/03/27/introducing-tackles-per-opportunity/" target="_blank">https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2015/03/27/introducing-tackles-per-opportunity/</a>Note that among the "off line of scrimage" LBs with 500+ snaps, 57 in all, Hawk was not in the bottom 10, or the bottom 18%, in tackles per opportunity (snaps minus incompletions).  Where he actually ranks I could not say, but he's above the "F" group.  Further, most of Hawk's snaps were in nickel before the bye where there is no argument he was thoroughly inadequate.Again, I've never argued that Hawk should have been retained other than as a vet backup and for insurance.  Quite the contrary...I would have liked to see his snap count going down (and out) since 2011.However, given the list of current candidates for the job on the roster...none of whom have taken an NFL snap at the position...the leader among that group would hardly be exempt from PFFs 2016 bottom 10 list.</blockquote>
