Alaric Jackson tweets on OL

[ottoman89]

He spoke open and honestly on Twitter. And I like his thoughts. Makes me proud to be a Hawkeye. I don't disagree with anything. He also responded to a @JKBOGEN tweet later on.

I saw that....wow...not sure thats a good look....

 

[Stl2La]

Saw this yesterday too. Not sure how to take it bc I’m not sure I’ve ever seen an active player post something like this before about the team he’s still on lol

 

[Mister Sin]

Did he tweet this or was this a conversation?

Our guys can run block. They proved that. But, with the exception of........well......they cant fuckin pass block. Like, none of em. So. Yea, we need some help.

 

[AvengerRam]

GMs set the roster.

Coaches coach.

Players play.

None of them should tweet.

 

[NJRamsFan]

Yeah...this is not a good look

 

[ottoman89]

God forbid a player tweet out honest thoughts. I forgot they're supposed to be robots.

I'd rather hear a players honest thoughts than a coaching lying through there teeth with coach speak.

 

[Ram Ts]

I dig this kid even more now. You can tell he cares and is invested - like all of us. There are lots of players that don’t give a crap.
I’m not sure what’s the bad look. I like it. Passionate about this Rams team. Me too.

 

[Varg6]

Probably won’t be looked at in a favorable light but I think he’s speaking his truth. I can’t say I disagree with him either. I’ve never seen a player do this, so that is quite something.

 

[thirteen28]

Agree it's not a good look for him to be posting this ... and yet, he's *mostly* right.

Mostly ... because he'd be at LT and Boom would be his backup. Would probably replace Allen, who while I like his grit and determination, seems to be too injury prone. And of course, need someone at LG when Jackson slides over to LT.

 

[Kupped]

Wow.
That's fun... a player being that open.
One thing... he doesn't mention Bruss... at all. Ooof.

 

[Ram Ts]

Btw - He forgot about Bruss

 

[ottoman89]

Btw - He forgot about Bruss

Or did he not forget about him?

 

[Antonius]

Alaric Jackson trying be the next head coach?

 

[AvengerRam]

God forbid a player tweet out honest thoughts. I forgot they're supposed to be robots.

I'd rather hear a players honest thoughts than a coaching lying through their teeth with coach speak.

Just because his thoughts are honest doesn’t make them right.

 

[ottoman89]

Just because his thoughts are honest doesn’t make them right.

I'm sure you played NCAAF at a high level at Iowa under a terrific OL coach and guru in Kirk Ferentz, made it to the NFL as an UDFA, played well under a terrific coach in Sean McVay before injury and have a similar idea on what successful OL looks like too. Knowing as much as him.

 

[Allen2McVay]

Some odd statements from a player with two career starts.

What I like is that Jackson seems focused on playing. Season ending injury and blood clots have led to speculation that he may not return.

These comments don’t guarantee a return but they are encouraging; and we Rams’ fans can use some positive, encouraging news right now.

 

[Kupped]

Here's the one thing in what he said that's a problem.. he talked about restructuring deals.

Mind your own fucking business when it comes to other guys' money...

 

[TheTackle]

I might now go out and buy his shirt. That is about right but I would add some pieces, one FA who can start and our first draft pick now that Akers, and RBs, and Cobie at CB have proved we needed to be patient

 

[sdakotaram]

His reply on health was concerning to me...."still breathing and able to waking up on my own"
