What it is

Team Eyeland teaches DB tackling from shed through finish, covering block recognition, space closure, near-shoulder strike, and wrap-up technique for defensive backs at all levels.

Why it's great

Most tackling videos isolate the hit; this one connects shedding blocks to the actual tackle in game context. The near-shoulder, near-hip coaching point prevents DBs from overrunning ball carriers, and the emphasis on staying low with eyes up addresses the head-down problem that causes missed tackles and safety issues.

How to use it in practice

Start with sled work on shed technique using proper hand placement and leverage, then progress to close-and-strike drills keying the ball carrier's near hip. Finish with live reps where DBs must shed a blocker before tackling, reinforcing the near shoulder/near leg strike and wrap-through finish.
