THUNDERDOME Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 I didn't get to rewatch the game yet, but I didn't hear his name called much yesterday, and I didn't see him get burnt at all. Anyone notice anything with him that stuck out? Cause I know people were worried about him getting on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 There was only one time that his man caught a ball, that I can remember. Not too shabby if you ask me.. Having said that, the Rams don't have the most dangerous passing attack in the league or anything.. We'll see how much he's progressed as the season goes on..

kubstix Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Tryon looked surprisingly good. While his man had a catch.....he was within inches of him on the coverage and should have been able to bat it down. Where was Smoot anyways? I would of felt more comfortable with Smoot out there, but props to Tryon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veteranskinsfan Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Smoot was injured and so they took him off the list of players eligible to play in the Rams game. I think on Friday night they listed him as "questionable" for Sunday's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lashondajones Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 whatdayaknow...maybe all those getting beat plays in preseason have finally paid off. he is getting closer to replacing smoot on a fulltime basis and he may be replacing Hall soon if Hall doesn't stop with the mistakes.

redskins59 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Didn't see him much on tv, so I think he did a good job. Good thing coaches don't listen to the fans, or we would have dumped Tryon last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mi6 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I want to see Kevin Barnes and Westbrook on the field as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshile Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 tryon looked good - he broke up a pass on teh goaline just by hitting the guy. i was very impressed, althought he kind of set the bar low with his early preseason performance. it'd be nice if we had barnes and tryon in the pipeline - roggers and smoot are getting old (still have some good years left baring injury, but getting older none the less). honestly, from the way it looks, if we were as good at recruiting, training, and retaining tallent in other positions (mainly the O/D lines) as we've seem to be at CB and safety, we'd be a really solid team.. we could use it a LB, RB, and QB as well, but we've yet to really see what we have in the backup LB's, RB's, and brennan.

THUNDERDOME Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 I hope he develops cause I don't feel to safe with Dhall and Rogers contract bein up this year. What if Hall plays like in Oakland and Rogers bails? Were screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMeast Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I think Justin Tryon looked surprisingly good. Granted he was only playing on the nickel package against the Rams, but when he was in there he looked strong. HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveller698 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Tryon was the guy that missed the tackle on the long Jackson run.... it looked like he was trying to arm tackle on that play and didn't want any part of Jackson. There was another pass play were he was late on coverage although I'm not sure exactly where it was.... I thought his play was mediocre and IMO can't wait to get Smoot back. Actually I just watched the video highlight of that play and it was Landry who took the bad angle and tried to arm tackle Jackson.... I was wrong.

tiger187126 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 tryon actually played more of a press than the other corners. man does he look small standing out there though. there were two catches that were just phenomenal by the rams, i think one was on tryon. both were on the wrong side of their body and zipped in. at least that's how it looked from the stands. oh and byron made a good ST play, and was promptly called brian just like the preseason.

rk3025 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Smoot hurt his rib in practice and was inactive for game Tryon looked surprisingly good.

I agree that he looked solid (only got beaten once that I saw and was playing close otherwise when I watched him.) But I gotta say, Rogers is NOT getting old. He may be just barely entering the prime of his career. Don't just throw that out there. By comparison, Smoot IS getting older, and I am concerned about him. But I think Tryon is going to be at least a good nickel corner, so maybe we do already "have him in the pipeline." We know much less about Barnes though. Here's to hoping...

dswerdlw Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Good for Tryon. I'm glad he had a decent game. But are there any updates on Smoot's status? I'd hate to see anyone as short as Tryon anywhere near anyone as tall as Calvin Johnson, namely Calvin Johnson himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
