lockdowncorner Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 I think these tackles need to be taken with a grain of salt. Extra tackles are often given to boost stats and impress fans. This is the sad truth of football today. I read in the newspaper where Northwest claims Chinetti had 24 solo tackles along with another player having 20 + tackles in ONE game against Northeast this year. Let's use our heads for a second. Are there really 45+ plays that Northeast actually ran the whole game. In addition, were these two players the only ones with tackles? It is instances like these that make me ignore the whole tackles stat. After going back and watching the NE/NW film... Chinetti had 3 tackles in the first half...one of them being iffy. There is no way two guys have over 20 solo tackles in one game. There are just not enough plays being ran. That is just one team. There are many more teams doing the same thing. I just wouldn't put much stock into some of the numbers that are being put up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pounderpop Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 brent hayes is good no doubt about it, but in my opinion imaowl was and is better than him 825378089[/snapback] Where is Imaowl playing now, when did he play @ Ooltewah?

cannonqb19 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 i think Ricky Kailiponi is the best linebacker in the state. He could kill every team in the state if he was not double teamed every game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rigger101 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Check out Nick Reveiz of Farragut. Son of Faud Reviez, holder of UT Kicking records and former NFL Pro. The young man is the second leading tackler in the Knoxville region. thumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am doubting you know what that is and your ability to count. Chinetti and Nelsons numbers are solid and under high scrutiny. The tennessean has doubted the kids numbers and now you publically. He is everywhere and makes or is in on every tackle. Before you get on here publically and doubt numbers, I am sure there staff will sit down with you and go over every play like they have already done this season. They spend many hours doing this i am sure you would be welcome since yopu have all this time to watch film. thumb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
