Tackling is my favorite part of the game.
It is okay to play tough and try to hit guys hard in the course of the play - that's fine - but I don't like unnecessary roughness or things that happen after the play.
I hit balls hard on the ground, and sometimes they are double plays. Other times, you hit it hard, and it's right through a hole.
I'm going to take Barrera out in devastating style with unbelievably hard shots. He's tailor-made for me, and I will fit him with a suit to wear on the canvas.
We want to play a really physical style ball, and so, for us tackling, we know we are shoulder-based tackling team, and we want to hit that strike zone just like you're throwing fastballs into that catchers' mitt just as hard as you can.
Everyone has 4 ounce gloves on, and they're big boys, and they can throw hard.
People come into fights against me and say this and that, but when they realise how quick and how hard I hit, their game plan disappears.
It's brutal out on the football field.
I love offensive physicality.
Number one, from a tackling standpoint, we teach strike zone hits, and we want to hit absolutely as hard as we can in that strike zone, and that's absolutely what we call a batter in the batters box from the chest all the way down to the knees.
It was really amazing the number of hard hits from which a mind could recover.
Now listen lads, I'm not happy with our tackling. We're hurting them but they keep getting up.
