I understand he was going against Von Miller, but he wasn't even getting a hand on him. Von just pushed him away like he's a lightweight.

Because he's Von Miller.

I'll stick up for the guy. He was playing hurt. But what about AC? He sucked today as well

I thought he played okay.   Made a great block on that TD run to the left.

Yeah, I can understand the speed element if you are beaten around but when you get bull rushed by a guy weighing 50 lbs lighter than you into your QB's face, then you are not playing well with your leverage and/or are lacking in upper body strength. Being big does not mean being strong, that is what Reitz showed me yesterday.

The fundamentals should be drilled into him to the point they're second-nature. He wasn't getting low when he was driven back by Von. So I'd put this on coaching (Philben) as much as Reitz.

The Colts traded with Green Bay to take TJ Green. With the Colts pick, Green Bay took IU's All Big Ten Tackle, Jason Spriggs.

 

Not a fan of Jason Spriggs, really. And he's riding the bench for the Packers, unless you count his two STs snaps...

 

Much rather have TJ Green, the problem is he's hurt right now.

 

All this fuss about Joe Reitz... Von Miller serves a lot of RTs in the NFL.
