Adams!!!

[WG]

I've gotta say, WHAT A SLUG!!!

Anyone arguing contrary, I simply can say I have no idea what you're watching!

Check out the first play of the Titans' drive starting at ~ 9:00 of the 2nd Q!

Adams looks as if he's just played a full game w/ no support from his O. 20 minutes into the game and he's bushed apparently! On the 2nd down play he got completely knocked on his ass by a single OL-man!

His play otherwise in this game has been no better than anyone else's w/ the exception that he's has no pass rush! NONE! The ironic thing is that he hasn't even been in on every play!

I gotta tell ya, if the season were to start next week, he'd be no higher than 2nd on my depth chart! Attrocious!

BTW, I counted one (1) double-team on Adams and that wasn't by design. The Bills DL stunted and he just happened to be where two OL-men were.

This guy isn't doing anything that we signed him to do!

You think he's wilting now. Wait until he plays here in Miami and the humidity. Then you'll really find out how quickly he's done.

Wilting??

Wilted! Flower faded! Useless!!!!!

Every single other DT that I observed did at least what he did!

Adams didn't miss a single play until there were 2 minutes left in the first quarter, I know because I wrote down every defensive play what he did. And he was double teamed almost every play, and pushed them back. I was watching only Sam on every defensive play. Also, no one ran his way and Pat was free to roam around and kept stuffing Eddie George. The pass rush wasn't great, but McNair is mobile and we weren't blitzing. I don't understand what you are saying.

I haven't watched the Titans game yet, but I have it on tape. I am going to watch the game tonight and I will watch Adams and give you my thoughts.

Were Wys and SAF watching the same game?

i am in the middle.. i dont think adams played nearly as bad as wys claims.. but he wasnt great..

sam is one of the guys i am NOT worried about.

I was never in love with signing Adams after he got pushed around in the Super Bowl by an average TB OL.

I agree, although he wasn't dominating, he held his own and didn't look terrible. I think we really have to wait until the regular season and four quarters of football to really be able to assess him accurately one way or the other.

Regardless of how poorly he played this season, he should still be better than Edwards. And with the rotations, he shouldn't get worn out too quickly.

Nope! Sure weren't!

I'd even be willing to lay money on the table that Sam was single teamed on at least a 3-1 ratio as well. I'm sure SAF won't bother anteing up. I caught one play on which he was double-teamed and it clearly was not a designed DT on him. It was pass protection and his move just happened to push him into two OL-men who happened to be there. He didn't even budge them. Heck, he didn't budge the single teams either!

As well, he did miss some plays. There were very clearly some obvious passing downs that they took him out for. Please SAF, please don't tell us all you think SA still has a capable pass rush!

We'll have to open a stand-up comedy forum...

Terrible? Not for the average DT. For Sam, yes, terrible.

He was our worst DT! Includes all the 2nd and third teamers. At least they were able to run. SA just waddles and skitters...

Wys, I watched Sam Adams at practice last night in the individual line drills (O line Vs. D Line) and he was firing off the ball and pushing two offensive lineman into the backfield on a regular basis. At least wait until the regualr season before you lable Sam Adams our worst defensive lineman.

What the heck is "single teamed"
