Jamal, you’ve dropped at least 3 INTs this year. Your ball skills aren’t very good and your coverage skills leave much to be desired. The last thing the fans need is a high pick talking themselves up before you accomplished anything in this league. Be humble pal....
You know what? Jamal probably should have turned his head and knocked that pass down, rookie mistake or whatever, but were talking about a game that Jets held this high scoring bunch to just 14 point's. OMG, talk about fuckin nit picking!! If the Jets lame offense did any thing worthwhile we'd be talking about an upset. This is all still BS. Picking on a rookie that is covering an all pro. Sometimes I wish the Jets would just move to different city, and not have to read all this negative nonsense.
Adams makes the same mistakes covering prolific TE's that most safeties do. They allow these TE's to get off the line at the snap unencumbered and allow them to build momentum and get into their route too easily. In addition, he has constantly allowed bigger players to get inside position and gives himself no chance. Adams needs to use his physicality to at least give himself a chance and jam the TE at the line, disrupt the route, and be better able to make a positive play. Playing it safe and soft is getting him killed.
I like the kid “STILL” But he better stfu soon otherwise I’ll file him under the Sheldon Dickerson Douche fraud category soon. These brothas do feel awfully good bout theyselves don’t dey........ yo Note to self. Another confirmation
OMG another Mevi$??? Not a bad player but 2 things: he is poorly coached and the OCs have figured out how to burn him If the kid doesn't intercept and make an IMMEDIATE impact he is NO first rounder Thanks Toilet Bowles ..you went Defense and got this POS when you could have drafted Watson or Mahomes
Oh I did, I just couldn’t get past the stupidity of you drawing conclusions on his career after 15 games. Polamalu had 0 INTs, 1FF, 2 sacks his rookie year, just saying.
STUPIDITY????? What I posted was an objective take of his career thus far. Who the hell said I drew a conclusion? I think YOU jumped to a conclusion.......
I was comparing his college stats to some of the college stats of other free safeties past and present. His numbers are good...so i can see how the Jets would like him. He has the numbers that can translate into greatness. He is not a hitter...you can teach angles, footwork, reading...but u cant teach "Go knock out Christian Okoye!" and change the momentum of the game. Lol.
Its called setting up a defender. Gates was never speedy but he knew how to get open and worked well with Rivers.
The old Kyle Wilson disease. That guy only knew how to run down the field with his head straight ahead. he could have had a hundred interceptions if would turn his head around.
There is a reason these prolific TE are defined as prolific, they are great at their jobs and you can only hope to contain them not stop them. Gates did to Adams what he has been doing to all NFL safeties, blocking them like a power forward uses his body to block out for rebounds Credit has to be given where credit is due, Adams will be fine.
I don't question the "will be fine" part as I think unlike Calvin Pryor he has the talet to stay in the league. But it doesn't seem like he can be a diffrence maker at all. Physically overwhelmed by TEs, no great ball hawking skills and not an overwhelimngly strong tackler/blitzer. Honestly I think he was just more well coached than others coming from a football family and that's why he made the difference at the collegiaate level. But I don't think he has a particularly high ceiling... something you'd expect given where he was chosen.
This is his first year, it's a huge transition from college to pros, he's been asked to do a lot in his first year and he has done a good job handling what he's been asked to do. I'm of the opinion that he will get better next year if the jets can manage to find someone at the lb position who can get to the QB. That way he will be able to play more coverage and he might get more interceptions.
Adams isn't pro bowl yet? He sucks! Adams admitted multiple times that he was unhappy with his play and wants to work to improve it. He has high expectations for himself. There is nothing wrong with that. Let's see how next year goes. He made some rookie mistakes, but overall played pretty solid in his rookie season, IMO. It's a big improvement over the safety play last year, no question. If they solidify the CB unit this year, it would be tremendous.
