And while we're at it, has Guyton fallen off the depth chart in favor of Dane Fletcher?

I think that the Pats dressed more LBers today because of that wierd 1-5-5 they decided to run at the end of the 3rd quarter. I saw both Guyton and Fletcher on the field then and on many of the 3rd downs.

I think that Flethcher was also dressed over Brace because of the injuries at Safety. With the injuries they had at safety, were planning on putting more LBers on the field in long situations. Normally, that was when they'd go with a "big nickle" and put 3 safeties out there. But with Page being out, I don't think they were willing to put a ton of pressure on Brown.

Deaderick dressed. Wright dressed. Pryor dressed. Not a good sign when your team doesn't put you in uniform for the game.

We wouldn't want to you think that Brace was a bust or something. After all, Love was active.

The last time I recall a healthy scratch being proved to have been no negative commentary on a guy's practice or play it was when Kevin Faulk didn't dress for the first game of the season after portraying Kordell Stewart on the scout team.

That was a long time ago ...

For all defenders of Brace, what has Love shown you that would explain his being active over a healthy Brace?
