As they discussed in the press conference, it's about who the 46 will be on game day. A deep reserve won't even dress unless they excel on STs. And that does not always mean they cover and make splash plays. Could be you play on the line and have been reliable blocking for FGs or the punter or you are good blocker on the return unit etc..

I imagine with Reeder he can perform those important duties due to his size and athletic ability. He has a little of both.

I also thought he played well in preseason in the base as the Mike LB.
A Rams weakness last year i.e. (Mark Barron, Cory Littleton)Reeder has the know-how and get-off to shed blocks.

Is it me or does that sound like we are trading for a RB?
Or waiting to put somebody who made the 53 on IR so they can come back later in the year and resign one of the guys we cut (hint it likely will happen at LB as well).

He's like Kiser he's a run defender which we didn't have last year and we lost with Kiser going down. The rest are all Littleton type ILB's. People are mad because we didn't set up our ILB room like we did last year which helped with the bad run defense.

Even if Kiser doesn't go down, I think Troy Reeder still makes 53 man roster.

I just got here and only went back 2 pages and people complaining that this is a second vent thread?

Well shiver my timbers, there are those that think they are better at personal decisions than McVay, SnEad, Bones, and Wade?

If people listen to Les and Sean they might vent a little less. But hey don't let anything get in the way of the time honored tradition of the vent thread.

We’ll I’ll be a son a bytch!! I like the vent thread tbh! Lol funny reading people whining about things. I won’t lie. It was my only one way for me to post a whole bunch of curse words and dumb shit without it being flagged or a ‘wtf’ message in my inbox from a mod! Lol

That good ol vent thread!


Kinda like the meme my fave @Dave51 used to post, the one that said “ I’m not here to protest, I’m just here for the violence”! Or something along those lines lol

Ps we can’t tag Dave no more :mad: :cry:

What cracks me up is some of the most vocal about our run defense last year are the loudest complaining we kept the 2 best run defending ILB :D Oh the juicy irony.

There is an old saying in football.

"Pick special teams over the best 53 and you will soon be jobless and on the street."

Ok, its not really a saying yet.

Actually, I just made it up, and used Italics.

But it has a solid chance of being an old saying. Sometime in the future. In the NFL. Like In the future..Maybe. :unsure::whistle::oops:

is that you jeff?

it seemed like 20 tavon austin tds were called back because the bozos on special teams didn't know shit about proper blocking techniques.

The problem with only 2 TE's is when we go to a TE set which I certainly expect this year

If we have an Injury that whole part of our gameplan gets adversely affected.

I want Wolfy too but getting to your 3rd QB is less likely than your third TE.

Tough Call

Starting age on the OL will be dropping a good deal next year unless another free agent is brought in to replace Blythe.

If the decision to keep Reeder over Allen is because Reeder can call plays, that’s not a good decision. In fact, I saw more from Kupp. Special teams also isn’t a good excuse to keep a guy. Unless they’ve shown to be all stars in that area. So keeping Natson over Hodge because Natson is OK at returning punts is also not a good decision. He offers nothing as a receiver. Hodge is also very good at covering punts.

I am ticked off. Because I believe these decisions will hurt our team. We haven’t exactly been great at recognizing talent at ILB.
