The Time Is Now For Reynolds

[JRobinson]

Great points, JRob. I haven't rewatched the game, but my observations of the game were that our OL was generally good. Denver's secondary was just great after Kupp left. They were able to move Chris Harris Jr. off of Kupp, which neutralized one of our other two key WRs. Prior to Kupp's injury, we were picking on Roby because they had to dedicate Harris to Kupp and extra resources to Cooks or Woods (whichever one Roby wasn't on). Our OL did make a mistake on a stunt, which led to the Goff sack (problem with losing Saffold). But I felt like the other three sacks were more coverage sacks. My memory could be faulty, though.

You must have listened to me say that on our podcast. Many probably overlooked this exact play as I said, "Blythe wasn't ready for it".. which he clearly wasn't. Im not gonna fault him though, even though it was his fault; dude had to flip everything backwards after being so good for 5.5 games at RG... Meh, he just got beat, Not Whitworth.

I'm embarrassed to say that I have no idea how to listen to podcasts.

Lol!! Just click on the links that the podcasters provide. Or you can go into iTunes on your computer, select "Podcasts" and then search 'name of podcast'. I think you could handle it :icare:

We Rams fans are getting spoiled especially at WR. Kupp is special but how much has he improved in 2 years with his hands, routes and intelligence in finding the soft spots in the defense. Comparatively Reynolds doesn't seem to have improved in any of those areas but he does have straight line speed and an opportunity now. We need a quality WR #4 to fill in and a quality red zone target - so lets see what he can do.

I’ve never seen a group of recievers with the precision route running skills, smarts, athletic ability and hands that Cooks, Woods and Kupp have. (Possible exception for Bruce, Holt, and company.) The good news for Reynolds is he has a chance to learn from the most focused group of receivers in the league. He ran some good looking routes against Seattle, let’s hope he can learn from the masters.
