[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 746314, member: 282"] I do remember Falcons fans griping and booing about Keith Brooking for years, because he was making a ton of tackles downfield instead of in the backfield. He seemed like he was making half the tackles on the team, though. I went and pulled up the NCAA stats at [URL]https://www.ncaa.com/game/4060553[/URL]. Curry had 7 solo tackles and 8 total, with none for a loss. He led the linebackers and front 7 in that category. Quez Jackson had 9 total and Avery Showell had 8. Showell had the most solo tackles—all 8 of his were solo. Having a bunch of tackles in the secondary means that the other team is making a ton of catches or the runners are getting past the line of scrimmage, though. Sylvain Yondjouen, Charlie Thomas, Demetrius Knight, Chico Bennett, and Djimon Brooks all had tackles for loss; Thomas had the most at 3. Knight had a forced fumble and Showell recovered it. Juanyeh Thomas has our one interception. The stats don’t come close to telling the entire story here. If it were giving the award on guts and battling it out, I’d be tempted to say Djimon Brooks as my pick for DPOtW. Having to play short handed on DL with that HUNH offense had to play havoc on the DL (the backs too, but I think I’d be ready to throw up after playing all out and non-stop 3 on 5 the way the DL did). Charlie Thomas got the shiny stats with 2 sacks and 3 TFL and also seems like a good choice. Knight also played really well. [/QUOTE]
