he got some new hair

I think people are not realizing his success today has more to do with going against a rookie tackle that couldn't deal with a speed rush more than anything he did.

Goes to show you - Different players have different athletic traits, absorb info at different rates of skills and are motivated differently. Some coaches (with their unique personalities) are more effective at turning around slow developing players than other coaches.

It isn't 100% predictable - It took a few years for VJ to strike oil with Reddick and it wasn't a sure thing.

We too often base our assessments on a sample-size of one. We're talking about human beings here. Different strokes, folks.

Still a hell of performance and a franchise record.

Yup, it’s amazing what happens when your play a player at their best (natural) position. It’s the position he excelled at in college. It only took 5 years to figure it out. It crazy how stupid these coaches are due to ego

He was a DE in college...now playing OLB.

 

[Broseph]

To see him get emotional like that is why I like watching sport’s , he beasted out today .

How many of the Olb's playing in 3/4 defense were playing defensive end in college
Surely he was more comfortable playing OLB then ILB
So he is right to call those coaches out

 

[gimpy]

Why can't you guys just give him his due? Why add the negativity whenever someone has a really good (in this case, record setting) game.

Good game Hassan. Good game/win Cardinals, even though I only got to see the first 2 1/2 quarters. Great win . We needed it.

Keep it up next week.

Right.


I mean, pass-rushers get 5 sacks in 1 game against rookies every day. It’s nothing new.


Not impressed.

He got 3 of his sacks from the right side of the offense. Beat the LT twice, beat the RT twice and got another sack on a stunt and beat the RG.

 

[WisconsinCard]

Don't let it go without mentioning he created 3 fumbles today as well.

 

[Cheesebeef]

I don’t care who he was going against, dude was a monster today.

Yup you can only face who they line up across from you.

 

[iLLmatiC]

He's quick as hell. The tackles couldn't handle it. Then he bull rushed on one of his last sacks. He put his stamp on the season.

 

[Chopper0080]

It will be a tough decision. Definitely a candidate for the franchise tag. Pas rushers are valuable and he has shown he can rush the passer and finish. As I said in another thread, you just have to be ok paying a one dimensional guy.

Thomas had allowed 6 sacks in 12 games. Reddick had 4 against him in one. I personally think Reddick should get credit for his performance. But, hey, you are entirely in your rights to piss on the parade.

THANK YOU, beat me to it

I checked out 3 different articles after the game and while they all of course mentioned the 5 sacks, not a one recognized the 3 FF's - which to me has got to be equally impressive, is it not?

 

[unseenaz]

This organization did him a disservice by playing him out of position for all these years

 

[Krangodnzr]

The scouting report on Andrew Thomas looked correct.

Real slow feet for a supposed too tackle.

First time since Vonnie Holliday did it 18 years ago!

He was miscast as an ILB by Arians regime

And his college tape screamed Rush OLB/DE

 

[Solar7]

Props to him for a monster performance.

That said, I don't think he'll be back. I see it like a Calvin Pace situation, where the guy is just plainly going to want a change of scenery, and someone will be willing to offer him a competitive contract.

He played a bunch of stand up Edge rusher and dropped back into coverage. You know what college defenses are like, they do a bunch of stuff you wouldn't see in the NFL. Reddick played much more like an OLB in college than a traditional hand in the dirt DE.
