I noted that he played in 4 series, one of them resulted in a TD.
He had 4 or 5 take_down blocks; they are so fun to watch. Granted, he had a little initial help on all but one; but you rarely see that with our other Guards, let alone that many in fewer than 20 snaps. ![]() ![]()

I didn't get to see much of the Tenn. game so thanks for the info. I've been wondering when he might get in a game and how he'd do. That's good to hear. Anyone else care to critique Brooks performance.

I like pancakes not exactly cut blocks now are they but effective, like throwing a change-up to keep a hitter off balance. Thanks for the heads-up 76

Fourth series of the game, toward the end of the first quarter. On the first play, Foster ran left. Brooks pushed his guy into D. Brown's guy, causing them both to fall. Brown then pancaked them both, LOL! BTW, when Brown got hurt, Gardner went in for 3 snaps in that series, and did well enough. On fourth and one, Brooks was pulling his man down when Harris came over to help. Looks like Harris slipped and caused the DE to lose balance. Brooks took him down, not quite flat on his face, but pretty close enough to make me smile. He came back in the next series, which was in the second quarter, around the 13:40 mark, on first down. Brooks was pushing his guy when Myers helped him by nudging the guy a bit before releasing onto the second level. Brooks put the guy on his back by rolling him over. He would have been on top of the guy on the ground, except the momentum caused him to roll off the body of the dead. In the third quarter, he came in around the 9:40 mark. On second down, Brooks went to the second level. The safety was able to avoid him. Brooks, came back and pancaked him. He might have gotten away with blocking in the back, but the safety helped him out by trying to turn around to reach the runner. He was squatted like a bug. Look at the angle of the last two replays. On the next series, near the 5 sec mark. On the first play of the drive, he simply pushed his guy backward and pancaked him, LOL! Those are all the series he played in. 15 snaps, 8 running plays.
