Because there is more than that at play. Jones wanted a contract and was not happy with the Rams offers. Jones has a bum knee. And Speights might be a guy they want in that starting role, which can be awkward as fuck when it's your captain of the defense getting beat out by a UDFA.
No hold out threat or request for trade. I don’t think the contract was stopping him from playing this year.
Never thought about this. It’s funny because every interview if someone asks about Goff the person always alludes to how hard of a worker he is. He doesn’t strike me as someone who would slack off but maybe McVay is just that much of a film junkie.
I don't know.. but it really feels like a hedging-bets starting assignment. Speights looks too good to keep off field.
You downplay it from behind your keyboard but real life isn't always all neat and tidy. People have expectations. Beliefs. They throw in behind certain leaders. You get division in the locker room. Etc.
That's the only thing that Reeder does real well.
But but but Reeder?
I don't think he has ever been a slacker either, but there was some disconnect there. I think McVay believes you work till you get it. And Goff wasn't gettin it at that time.
Shanahan sees the Rams get rid of Jones and insert Reeder into the starting line-up and he is goingWhat do you mean? He bounces off Deebo Samuel with the best of 'em.
McVay was a boy genius when he was hired by the Rams. He’s evolved into a man genius. We don’t need to understand him but we need to trust him. I’m going to bet he knows Reeder/Rozeboom is not the long term answer.
