LOVE this guy...Pro Bowl this year? He has become my favorite player. He alternates between making and inspiring the Defense AND Offense to make plays.

Serious man-crush here.
 
You can't be a probowler when you come off the field on 3rd downs (I'm still wondering why Bobby is better then). And he needs more gaudy stats. But so far, definitely the heart of the defense.
 
No Pro Bowl, but very good for the defense. I'm happy we got him.
 
He's been a great pickup.

I just wish his attitude would catch on.
 
Yup. Keith Brooking is a football player. Gotta love watching players like him.

I think they only play Bobby so they can justify his spot. He's worthless.

Brookings could definitely handle the job but I'm sure he doesn't mind the breather.

He doesn't come off the field. I saw him and Barbie out there all day on the nickle. Maybe he and Bradie alternate. but he doesn't always come off the field in the nickle.
 
I watch this guy and a couple of things I noticed are that he is slow to the ball, but in the right place, which makes me think we are over valuing him, i.e., over-rating him. But I'm not sure about that.

Biggest thing is he is very fiery and I wish his attitude would prevail in practice.
 
So many of us thought this was a "meh" signing but the dude has been nothing but a bigtime positive for this team.

Love that guy. I wish he could've been a Cowboy his entire career.

Yeah, the alternate-especially towards the end of games. But he comes out for Bobby most of the time.
 
Brookings has given us what we were looking for from Zach Thomas last year but didn't receive - intelligence, intensity and most importantly leadership. Hopefully we'll get a couple of seasons out of him and groom one of the young ILB prospects to become his heir apparent.

I would be suprised if anybody on our team makes the Pro Bowl the way we are playing. We no longer have the reputation that will get players like Gurode and Flozell a berth.

The only player I can possibly see making the pro bowl is Demarcus right now.

I think he was on the board (along with Randy Moss) when we drafted Greg Ellis back in 98.

If you're only talking about defense don't forget Ratliff. On offense Witten will make it also.
 
He is exactly what we need on this team. One hell of a football player and leader
 
The way Ware is playing i doubt he makes the pro bowl. But ratliff looks like a sure fire pro bowler.
