Man, Mr.Robinson has a lot of wiggle. Hopefully he is really that shifty against other teams, and it isn't that Mike Williams is just that bad.

...could very well be a big-time break out performer this season.

That said, someone really needs to teach these defensive players how to tackle in the open field.  Both guys (Williams and C. Gordon) looking ball carrier at head level and both guys lunging forward at a player in open space.  Very poor

The defender must close, come to balance, eyes on bottom of numbers or belt buckle, wait for offensive player to commit, then step sideways or even give slightly backward and tackle the legs.  Try to put shoulder through knees, then lock the arms around legs.  If you get shoulders into legs, run through the tackle.  If you do not get shoulders into legs, finish the tackle by rolling.

at work at the Xerox machine because I was tired of waiting to make my copies. "Shoulder through the knees and lock arms ... "  I just kept repeating that to myself and damn if It didn't work beautifully!  One of the secretaries was pretty shifty, though, so I tried the rolling thing. No gain!

If he could only catch the ball consistently, he could make those moves in the open field when it actually counts.

He made some of those guys (Williams, C. Gordon, Marvin Robinson) look a little silly at times.

Good video.
