Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

Brooking/Lofton

Keith Brooking is an unselfish, under-appreciated STUD. He has sacrificed padding his personal stats by playing out of position for over half of his career because of his love and dedication to this team. I hope those traits rub off on the next generation of Falcon LBs. And I also hope Curtis Lofton will be the second-coming of Jessie Tuggle allowing Brooking to wreak some serious havoc on the outside before he retires.

Underappreciated?

If anything, is is incredibly overrated. If he is within five yards of a play, he gets credit for a tackle. He jumps on top of a pile several seconds after a play ends, he gets credit for a solo tackle. He racks up stats, but he only ever makes stops after the play has gone downfield. Not to mention the fact that he is a total liability in coverage. The only reason I liked the Lofton pick was in the hope that he will be replacing Brooking sooner rather than later.

Making Stuff Up?

So apparently our statisticians are paid off by Arthur? Think about what you are saying…Maybe even before you say it.

SG Standard

Yes Brooking is under-appreciated. Yes, his stats are good but what could they have been had he been playing alongside a legitimate MLB?
I understand you may be a bitter fan, but I think you’re not a fan at all.
Does SG stand for “Saint’s Guy”?
