What it will do hopefully is make players return to proper tackling form. Wrap the player up instead of launching your body in the attempt to knock the ball loose. Pete Carrol is ahead of the curve here as this emphasis on tackling will most likely reduce the amount of zone defenses being played, corner backs will need to be bigger and longer to do a better job of defending 1 on 1 as more man to man coverage will ultimately be used.
