Or 121 tackles, good for 14th.

Heads, you always put a positive spin on anythin regardin the Bears dontcha. :P

Some vindication after the MVP snub.

 

Why isn't this in green? You can't seriously think he desrved to win MVP. He didn't have anything close to the type of numbers a defensive player has to put up to win the award (see: Lawrence Taylor's 1986 season).

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jan 6, 2006 -> 07:26 PM)
Tackle stats are different everywhere you look

 

 

I went with the article on top of the page and doublechecked on NFL.com.

 

I would expect that'd be good enough.

170 seemed too damn high.

170 was blasted all over Fox the last game of the season.

 

Tackle stats are far from official, teams count them much differently than websites.

Where does he rank compared to everyone else, then?

Im glad I am not the only one who saw that. That was where I got that number, with Briggs getting 169 tackles.

170 and 169 vs 122 and 102

 

Where exactly does the disparity come from?

I have been wondering that myself.

 

I am pretty sure NFL team coach staffs count tackles significantly different than places like NFL.com and ESPN.com

maybe its solo + assisted tackles?

I mean, that's a large disparity between those two guys and their numbers....like 116 tackles....like 8 a game or so.

Fox Sports gives Urlacher 98 solo and 24 assisted.

It dont make no sense to none of us!

 

Probably just Fox blowing his stats up on TV, but to give him an extra 45 tackles is just ridiculous

And Briggs an extra 67....

Could you imagine this in baseball? I can't. I guess the basketball equivalent, and I don't know how prevalent this really was, but it was always claimed that Stockton had his assist totals padded at home.

Hawk: Paul Konerko steps in, batting .432 with 85 homeruns and 450 RBI

 

DJ: And its only May, Hawk. Imagine what those numbers will look like in September!

 

Hawk: DJ, I fully expect that Paul Konerko will finish the year with well over 300 homeruns.

Um yes. I just thought Urlacher would have received a vote or two. I didn't expect Urlacher to win the award, just to get a vote or two. If you take him off the defense the Bears defense is no where near it is right now.
