Best way I always …
Best way I always found when I played safty is to missle takle just fly up in there at full speed and launch at 6′ 220lbs in my senior year nobody shed my takles. All this wrap up and drive crap works fine if your some big LB but for us medium fast guys the missle takle is the way to go.

good point. If you look at the end the ball is where the head is so coach is just illustrating for the camara angle. He simply stating your head should be on the outside. Adding where the ball is wasn’t part of the video.
