knapplc Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Defensive Tackle: 1) Two words: Ndamukong Suh – The quintessential example of a legendary DT. The DT is a huge guy that makes it impossible for you to run straight up the middle. They have the toughness to fight through double teams and get in the gap to stop the RB. Our DT should present his big ideas to a topic and have them mean so much that an argument or question stops at that point. 2) Quickness - This may be an overused item, but it's still important at the DT spot. If he can get through the line, he has a straight path to the QB! The faster he gets there, the better - this can create poor decisions and bad throws by the passer. HuskerBoard DT's should react fast to breaking news! 3) Shifting ability - If Bo decides to go into a 3-4, a DT will become a nose tackle and line up over the center. If he can take on both running gaps and jam the inside, he allows the ILB's to make plays. The perfect DT takes on many tough issues in many forums to allow other posters the ability to answer the obvious questions (the easy stop as it were)! 4) Relentless - This guy can really dig his heels in and eventually overpower the lesser player in front of him. Creates a surge towards his given target and then makes the tackle from any given angle. Please nominate or second one person, and one person only.
