A High Point From Yesterday

Posted by Matt Terl on September 14, 2009 – 2:24 pm

During open locker room today, I had a chance to ask talk briefly with London Fletcher, and I asked him about his league-leading eighteen tackles.

“It’s one week,” he said, shaking his head.

True. But still … eighteen tackles.

“Eighteen is a good amount of tackles,” he said. “I obviously wish it was in a win. Felt like I was pretty active in the ballgame, trying to run to the football, try to just be around and play the defense. Lot of times it was just the way the defense was called that I ended up being the tackler on a lot of those plays.”

Yeah, I’d call that “pretty active,” sure.

(UPDATE: For the flipside of Fletcher’s numbers, see Barry Svrluga’s piece here.)
