It depends on the production from the D-Line. If those tackle numbers comes with 4+ sacks from the front 4 than these stats would not mean TOO much. But if some 2nd string running back racked up 140+ yards on us...

Than this means we have problems.

This could also show that the player in particular may be HIGHLY aggressive and a ball hawk. So that could reflect positives as well. For instace, if Sean Taylor (RIP) were to average 10 tackles a game. We would all know that there were at least 4 hitstick moments..
