Cleveland Browns new linebacker Jacob Phillips was an SEC tackling machine

Cleveland Browns fans may warm up to Jacob Phillips, who led the entire freaking Southeastern Conference in tackles with 113, as he seeks to replace ace linebacker Joe Schobert, who is now a Jacksonville Jaguar.

Replacing a fan favorite like Schobert is not easy. If fans resent that Schobert was let go, they have a right to be upset. He was an all-out, 100 percent effort, 100 percent of the time ballplayer.

Schobert led the Browns and was 10th in the NFL with a whopping 133 tackles. Hopefully, Browns fans will realize that it is not the rookie's fault that Schobert was let go.
