I'm picking on you and I apologize for it. But we see people extremely critical about players whether warranted or not. And the vast majority of the time people won't ever give said player credit when the played well. You aren't the only one who's been critical of Boom by any stretch of the imagination. I'm not saying this proves he can be a starting LT far from it I'm critical of him getting hurt as much as he has. But people are very fast to criticize somebody and very slow to compliment them after. I think it's societal but that's a much bigger and deeper conversation.
Joe Noteboom had a good game coming off the bench for our starting LT in his first game back from the IR. It's sad to me that more people can't acknowledge what he did today.
Fair enough.
Im not very critical of most Ram players actually.
Endlessly defending Brown amd Reeder and in past days players like Brian Quick and Keemun.
Not because I’m blinded by being a fan.....I try not to do that....but because they are (I’m sure) trying extremely hard to do a job with a tiny, tiny margin for error.
Basically.....it’s harder than hell and these are our dudes.
I was picking on Boom not because I don’t like him.
I’m not trying to “bash” the guy at all.
He does have many measurables for LT and he is athletic.
I just see that lack of balance as a major issue that guys usually can’t over come.
Maybe he will overcome it now that he is back at a more natural position for him.
I was probably too insistent that he would fail.
Again, I want the dude to kick ass.
Would love to see more push in the run game.
Also, I agree with getting him in there ahead of, say, Evans.
