The Rams defense set a few small records, but overall it was one of the better performances in Rams franchise history today versus Washington.

Inside linebacker Troy Reeder fell into three sacks of his own, setting the Rams record for most sacks by an inside/middle linebacker in a single game in team history, and that goes back to the late-1950s at least.

Previously inside 'backers Cory Littleton, Will Witherspoon, and London Fletcher each had a game with two sacks (the latter two had two each). In fact, Reader puts himself in very rare company of inside linebackers with three sacks in a game.

(since 1982) is debatable since some of the players on the 3+ sack list were inside linebackers in base defenses and edge rushers in nickel (such as Chad Brown, Charlie Clemens, Mathias Kiwanuka, and others). Still, Reeder is etched in the record books with the likes of Jack Lambert and Mike Singletary and other inside linebackers who each had three sacks once each. So there is that.

Today Troy Reeder played like he's not going to let Micah Kiser get his starting ILB position back.

Is he really that much better than he was last year?

I don't know. I'm just fired up how he played with his hair on fire and looked nothing like he did his rookie season.

One breakout game isn't enough to start predicting how great he can be but damn he did some damage today.

Going to be interesting following Reeder's snap counts the next couple of games.
