Week Six Eric Foster 'Keep Choppin' Colts Player Of The Game

CINCINNATI, OH - OCTOBER 16:  Dallas Clark #44 of the Indianapolis Colts makes the touchdown catch during the game against the Cincinnati Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium on October 16, 2011 in Cincinnati, Ohio.  The Bengals defeated the Colts 27-17.  (Photo by John Grieshop/Getty Images)

After a wholly unimpressive performance by the Colts leaves finding a player of the game all the more difficult. This week's candidates for players who embody Eric Foster's relentless energy and 'keep choppin' work ethic are:

Dallas Clark: 6 catches , 53 yards and 1 sweet touchdown grab

Donald Brown: Five rushes for 35 yards and a touchdown plus quality blitz pickups and 16 yards receiving 

Pat McAfee: 4 punts with a 52 yard average (2 into the wind) and a long of 62 yards

Yep, a punter made the list... slim pickings this week.

The entire offensive line.

Or Antoine Bethea, who had some huge tackles in run support.

Was going to say the same thing. The O-Line was outstanding.

Uhhh

How about none of the above. Brown is the only one of the three that didn’t have a major screw up. Dallas fumbled setting up a TD. McAfee bumbled the hold on the FG kick.

Slim pickings indeed. I’d say the O-line.

Don Brown is the obvious choice.

He played a pretty good game. Most of us like to think he doesn’t have it in him. He probably hasn’t been given a completely fair shake.

Dallas did a nice job on the horribly thrown TD, but his weak-sauce fumble disqualifies him in my opinion.

McAffe is consistently excellent.

I agree with what some others have stated, Bethea or members of the offensive line could have been chosen.

Donald Brown

I’m supporter, and he played a good game, in my mind, he should be splitting 50/50 carries next week. He showed great carrier vision and blocked like Addai, something that Brown never had done.

No way on Clark

The lost fumble gave the Bengals great field position to score first and take the lead.

I'd give it to Garcon before Clark. Pierre screwed royal but has played his

butt of every game this year. Clark has made one great catch in six games of mostly so-so effort.
