I would guess that Micah Kiser will be activated this week to replace Troy Reeder. I overestimated Reeder's abilities badly I am embarrassed. This one game might eject Reeeder out of the NFL. That's a 37 yr old RB there.

Holy Shit guys, relax. When did I blame the loss on Reeder?
Its social media my friend, the place where kneejerks, overreactions, reading outside the lines, contrarian takes, attention whoring, trolling, misinformation, toxicity and jackassery thrive. It's all good though. (y)

There were a few defensive breakdowns yesterday. Especially early. I thought Reeder was serviceable, Idk.
I was more focused on the Dline overrunning the pocket and running lanes all day.

I am not blaming the loss on Reeder - I just think we win with Kiser.

That's completely different. I just think Kiser is 10 times better at recognizing short pass plays than Reeder.

You can't blame this loss on Reeder guys. He's played well up until yesterday. A single player is allowed a bad game every once in awhile. Lets get this straight, the whole team didn't show yesterday. THE WHOLE TEAM.

That was a pathetic performance from the Rams. They should be ashamed.

Yeah but when players are having a particularly bad game - they should be benched for at least a series.

I wish we had a capable backup at center because Blythe played particularly bad this game

Not bagging on you brutha, just the nature of social media.

Yeah but his awareness on the short passes is just terrible. And it was the short passes that killed us. Kiser is so much better on those types of plays.


Yes but Kiser has had too much time injured since he's been with the Rams. An upgrade is needed. I hope Micah is healthy soon.

Oh I agree - Kiser seems to get injured too easily.

I am just saying for that game - we win if Kiser is healthy.

i thought gore made 3 yards more than he should have on most of his carries. when he gets the ball and i see the defenders in front of him my mind pictures where the stop should be made and he somehow always made 3 yards more.

just showed a lack of commitment by the defensive players. they might think they're playing hard but in reality they weren't giving it everything they had.

Yeah looks bad on him but where was the help? Gang tackling after the fact. Whole defense sucked. Donald also looked like that missing a late game sack, so everyone gets a share of blame.

I think the whole team partied too hard the night before or somebody “accidentally” laced the team breakfast with sleeping pills

Reeder is who he is. We got a little hyped up in here about him but we all know he's limited. Rams will hopefully get Kiser back and he's more consistent in space.

Holy crap, that whiff on Gore was truly awful.

And yeah, if teams are specifically game-planning against Reeder to take advantage of his lack of speed, that’s a big problem.

We all knew ILB was a vulnerable spot from Day 1

I didn’t watch The game & am a Big Reeder Fan because of his effort.

Yes-I talk about his positives.He isn’t making $140,000,000 either.Is a UDRFA in his 2nd year. — Add he is playing(starting) MLB,all while being a Core Special teams players.

Grantit this as well.The Rams defense only gave up 23 points in a New Era NFL.So weather he missed a view TACKLES or NOT he still did a capable job.
So I’ll defend TROY REEDER!! He plays hard & Feeds off Emotions & Effort.Whenever Aaron Donald has taken over a game he is Right there making a Play.

I can & will go on about Reeder.From watching on a Gamecast there are key moments you look at in a game.

Rams getting the ball first & going 3 & out at home against The JETS.Leaving the game up to The Rams Defense with a UDFA MLB is unexpectble.
Talk about team emotions.Then I’ll add that a QB like Darnell is tough for a MLB to play against.You have to spy a bit ??
I just know RAMsey gave up a big play & twice Reeder was there to stop a 3rd down play.
The name I didn’t hear much was Kenny Young who last week played lights out.I thought he & Reeder were starting to play well together.
Micah Kiser is coming back & last time that happened Reeder went from 3 sacks & starting to Zero Reps on Defense.
Just makes me made that a game is put on Reeder.What about OBO ? Young ? Brockers? Robinson?
