If you put stock in PFF he's been very mediocre against the run this year. The Lions were already the 2nd rushing defense last year and now they're 4th.
There's a big difference between being expected to be the 2nd best player on a defense and just being a part. Reader hasn't made a tackle either solo or assisted in 3 weeks.
My point was more about how bad our DL has been, not that Reader has been crushing it for Detroit or anything. I thought the *3* sacks part made that clear, but maybe not.
