While Coleman avoided a fine, Brackett expects to be docked after drawing a roughing-the-passer penalty in the first quarter. As Michael Vick rolled to his left and delivered a pass, Brackett arrived and delivered a helmet-first hit to Vick’s chest.
“You’ve got to play football,” said Brackett, who believed he struck Vick with his arms. “You’ve got a running quarterback and he’s out of the pocket and you’ve got an opportunity to get a hit on him. You’ve got to take your shot.
“I’m going to continue to play hard. I’ve been fined in my career for hits, but I think I play the game fair.”
