Golden Nuggets: Turn him loose!

Morning everyone. How are you feeling right now? Does that win still feel good? Sure does. I think we get one more day to enjoy it before we have to start looking forward. I don't want to be thinking about winning out and everything like that, all I want to concentrate on is what this team has to offer, how they'll perform Sunday against the Eagles, etc. Man, one thing I'm excited for is Ahmad Brooks.. definitely looked good, didn't he? I didn't get a chance to see if he dropped back in coverage once, but then again, he wasn't supposed to. I wonder how good he'd be as an every-down linebacker... He seems to be performing very well in his limited role. I say give him a chance. Course I said that about Briggs too, but I guess there's really not many chances available to him considering the trio is working pretty well at the moment. Credit to the line too, they got pressure on a three man rush several times. I'm not really sure why I'm ranting on about this so instead I'll just get to your links. Enjoy, folks.
