Re: Troy Brown on Comcast Sports with Felger
Stating the obvious : it's always been very, very easy to root for Brown. Without knowing any of the inside scoop, I have to think he was more than a little hesitant about playing DB in the SB stretch drive. A proven vet, needing to do that, is usually recipe for disaster.
Brown would have none of it. He basically shut up and did his job. For me, that season cemented his legacy as the ultimate team guy. 50+ receptions during that time would not have been more impactful.
I have always respected players who'd rather have a role on a winner than be a star with losers (like so many pros would prefer over being a role player).
