Even though this is not what I suggested, it appears as if it will work. I don't think bracing the plywood with the studs will do you any good, the weight of the TV coming through the wall will hold the plywood up against the brick. But you haven't listened to me before so I'm sure you'll go ahead and do what you want to do. I am done with this! It's like you don't even consider my feelings anymore!

The reason I feel like the bracing is needed is to counteract the moment that the TV extended from the wall will create.



I'll hope to build the frame similar size as the wall plate of the mount so I can ensure I'm attaching the connectors to something solid on the other side of the brick.
