Who said balling ? I said solid he was sol on the play either way, the ball was going to the other side of the field if he played Davis, good play call by the skins 

A good safety would have recognized it..he didnt..not impressed.

Most of what he did.. had help, yea, luke only caught a foot on AP, but he slowed him down...seen a 1st down caught right in front of reid...please look at the team effort and his lack of play...this owner choose to bring a distraction in...expectations are higher...even when these boards try to shut down free expression or the dominate group think calls everyone names for disagreeing..

Mediocre safety playing mediocrely

 

suprise surprise

I don’t see a distraction, this team performed like a typical ron Rivera led team, slow, lethargic, and without a sense of urgency that’s been happening way before Reid was even being considered as a fa

Can we be clear on one thing?

This was not a "social justice" signing, and it didn't start with Tepper.

Hurney and Rivera sat down to look at options, saw Reid as the best option, ran it past Tepper and signed him.

Signing a guy just to make some kind of statement would be idiotic.  You sign a guy because he helps you win football games, and that's why they signed Reid. 

Whether that turns out to be the right call, we'll see.  But let's not act like we were willing to sign a lesser player just to make a point.

 

lol, tepper has been vocal about trump BEFORE he had a team...this IS a statement and to be honest...I would not be surprised if tepper does not bring in cuppercake, as well.

Again, we have pentagram turn in ownership... the maverick (bet he back john mccain all the way), but I don't give a crap. more important to stick it to trump... :roll eyes

 

You are right torrey smith was signed before tepper and it took 4 /1/2 games before he stepped up, as he was to worried about cuppercake and reid top concentrate on helping this team win...

 

btw I have gave you pie, a lot..or avoided it as you are a mod and can shut speech down...as I have seen mine shut down WITHOUT attacking anyone personally.

 

Keep your pie (or lack of) for mods in that realm of realities..lol.

he was cleaning up after luke's missed tackles all game. made a great play on at least 1 tackle for loss. made a few clutch TD saving tackles when AP got through everyone else.

he hasn't been spectacular but he's been the best option we have by far.

Lol does no one understand how to evaluate safety play? He’s been decent for the most part and stopped a couple of runs and made a few plays.

Not really standing out and that’s fine for a guy who just got signed off the couch.

Stupid threads abound today,  but that's normal. 

[Car123]

I don't remember a missed tackle by him. The blame should go to Moore, Kuechly and the rest of the front 7.

He's still in transition, though with that said he's also a veteran so you wouldn't expect the transition to take as long as it might if he were a younger player.

Regardless, people really did have some unrealistic expectations for him when he signed.  And frankly, not just for Reid himself.

Our defense this year is bad, quite possibly very bad. And the reality is that we weren't one safety away from being great when Reid was brought on, but apparently a number of folks believed we were.

I would say it would take about 4 games, given that its a new team, new defense, new defensive signals etc...

lol, yea expect this from a RR led team...but, now we have more drama. Again, a border line team that can excel or fall face first just got an average player with baggage...and we look like crap in the 1st half, coming off a game the refs help us win...but, in this boards logic we won that game and were "in" this game, so all good. The other half sees the weakness (even in a give me win) and are questioned about loyalty, and who are racist based on who they criticized for the short comings win or lose...as it always helps to ADRRESS the  weakness with acknowledging the strengths.

Did you miss the Giants game?

[Krovvy]

I haven't seen anything egregious from Reid.
