So I had a game where my Linebackers made most of the tackles and missed tackles. The Defensive Line didn't have much of either one. Is this because the DL was getting pancaked and not even attempting to make tackles, so it goes to the LB to make the tackle/attempt?

Several things are possible:

the DL had no chance to tackle because wrong positioning (I don't mean the skill!) and the RB run through the DL

The RB broke the tackle, but then you should find it in the playbyplay

The DL got taken out of the gameplay by the OLers

In this case, wouldn't the defender register a missed tackle?
