As far as I'm concerned labeling Brisset a choker is ridiculous. If you want to give him a label I think hero is a Better fit. Has he made some poor decisions.....absolutely and has been frazzled at times. But when you consider this 23 y/o came in September and had to learn and execute a whole different offense on the fly it boggles the mind to think how well he has performed. Those who know both the Patriots and Colts systems (ex Reggie, Duane Allen ) have all noted that they are 180 degree different.....this is THE most complex position and when you add in his poise, leadership, and toughness it's nothing short of remarkable. Several of the reporters who cover the colts beat have noted that his peers have a ton of respect for him in the locker room. As tough as this season has been as a fan, I don't want to imagine what a cluster fuck it would be if we still had Tolzein under center.
