I just watched Brown and Havenstein play two weeks just as good as Robinson. Neither of us have seen Williams in game action this year quit including him until we do.
Preseason counts in my assessment...Sorry.

Tells me more about Krommer. I just saw G-Rob play against Olivier Vernon....I've seen Brown, Havenstein, and Williams play against....whoever...and look....

Yeah, that he favors lineman who can understand a playbook.

Our line has given up what, two sacks this season? Both coming against the Redskins?

Kromer turned Incognito from a problem child into a ProBowler. The fact that he didn't see anything similar in Robinson speaks volumes. Incognito was one of the biggest enigmas in the NFL, yet Kromer found a way to make him productive.

Man I hated that we drafted GRob back then.... I tried to be positive and excited about him but he just sucks. Undisciplined and just overall a mediocre player.

That is adding insult to injuries. Buffalo wanted Sammy Watkins. Why The Rams didn't trade back for him was killer !!

The truth now is it doesn't really fucking matter !!! The Rams draft picks & trading up lately has to play into things as well.

The Rams are were they are. Greg Robinson had to go because of his price tag. He had no future with the team moving forward after this season.

The Rams are build a solid foundation right now. It is easy to see. They are set to get some good competition picks in 2019.

I thought Richie was solid next to Jake Long. He learned a lot from his experience from Miami. I thought Kromer was with Chicago Richies first year with the Bills ?

Interesting you should say that....Tonight, we'll play the youngest defensive line we've seen this season. I will be watching intently the edge rusher..Solomon Thomas...from Stanford....I'll be watching Deforest Buckner from Oregon. I'll be watching That other lineman from Oregon also....Pac-12 guys...and, if they are competing well, it won't be because they understand the damn playbook better. It'll be because they are better football players...better athletes....

And

If the way we run block now is understanding the playbook...well, shoot....I guess I'm happy they have such a great understanding....Gurley and Goff must feel so much better.

Naw.....Richie could always play...we shoulda grabbed him while he was a FA and sitting out of the league.

Mean guy....pretty intelligent too...always was productive.

But he did wanna work with Brown, Havenstein, and Williams? OK

They're on the team, aren't they? At minimum, he didn't want to toss in the towel on them yet. Keep in mind that he could have kept G-Rob and gotten rid of Brown.

Yeah, productive at drawing penalties, like GRob. Only difference is Incognito is a helluva blocker. GRob couldn't hold a job at tackle or guard. Sad.

I think they both joined the Bills in 2015.

Keep thinking this is 1990....1980....this aint even 2010....and guys GET 5 years to get right....3 seasons nope....2 seasons is all most are gonna get.

True. But who would Spagnoula have scapegoated?

All he really had to do was bench him and see if he grows up.

He could have been a cheap backup 4th rounder.

He was rated as a second-rounder but he broke his leg is a senior.

Who gives a damn if he flipped somebody off?
He could have punched me in the face if he played like a borderline Pro Bowler like he did here.

A stupid penalty is a benchable offense not a out right release offense.

Richie did say he was committing personal fouls on purpose to get the team to release him. Referred to playing for the St. Louis like being in prison and once faked a stomach ache to get out of playing in a game.

He didn't want to be a Ram.

And you believed him?

That's exactly what an immature person would say, "I didn't want to be there anyway".

I still wouldn't have released him.
