“n. Ron Brace. Huge play in Minnesota-New England late in the first half, with the Vikings having a first-and-goal at the Patriots’ one with the score tied at 7. Brace, a second-year defensive tackle from Boston College (looks like he has classic noseman size), lined up on the head of Minnesota right tackle Phil Loadholt. At the snap, Adrian Peterson took the ball and ran right behind Loadholt. One problem: Brace was pushing Loadholt back. Peterson couldn’t find a hole, and he was enveloped by the Patriot defense. Never would have happened if Brace hadn’t win the man-to-man battle with Loadholt.” - Peter King gives Ron Brace some love.
