rbmcdonald Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Why would Brackett be listed as the 10th best LB play for week 15, after 4T 1A & 2T 1A in the last 2 weeks? Now there is talk that Indy will sit him in favor of Morris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keggerz Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Because he's been outstanding all year. Take into account that he has also missed 2 games. it is hard to say that any colt defensive player has been outstanding when their defense is as pourous as a sieve without the screen.....fwiw there was an article(dont remember where I read it) that hinted that bracket could possibly be replaced this week, if that happened it would probably be morris in the middle but with that said MORRIS IS NOT THE ANSWER so I think that Bracket is safe this week but the article did also state that Gardner was most likely going to be replaced.

Sgt. Ryan Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 (edited) Why would Brackett be listed as the 10th best LB play for week 15, after 4T 1A & 2T 1A in the last 2 weeks? Now there is talk that Indy will sit him in favor of Morris. If Cincy is going to beat Indy in their building, they are going to have to run the ball, and keep Indy's offense off the field. Given the fact the Indy Run D is by far the worst in the NFL, why wouldnt they exploit that huge weakness of the Colts. Now, Cincy has the abilty to play with Indy in a shoot out, but why would you give manning multiple chances to beat you, knowing when he is on the sideline he cant. Lets look back at Cincy's last 3 opponents, all victories. And see how opposing MLB's have faired. Last week Kirk Morrison had 8 tackles, 5 assists and a forced fumble. 2 weeks back Ray Lewis had 6 solo tackles an assist, and a pass defense. 3 weeks back Dqwell Jackson had 11 solo tackles and 4 assists Starting to see the trend here? Brackett is solid when the DT in front of him actually keep OL off him. Cincy has not been able to do that in the last 3 weeks, so I thought Brackett would have a nice game.

CaptainHook Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Like I said, Morris started for Gardner. Not Brackett. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Ryan Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 7 tackles, 2 assist, 1 pass defense, and 1 forced fumble. I think Id take that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbmcdonald Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 7 tackles, 2 assist, 1 pass defense, and 1 forced fumble. I think Id take that. Got to hand it to you. He comes off of 4 tackle 1 asst and 2 takles 1 asst weeks 13 & 14, with talk of him losing time, and puts up a top 15 performance week 15.
