Mike Adams

With this being Adams second consecutive start, whats everyones thoughts on his gameplay? Seems like hes finally gelling really well with the rest of the line.

 

Another very good effort, IMO - no sacks given up and some nice run blocking. He appears to be doing much better on the r side.

 

Ok, lets see what he does against players that can actually rush the passer?
GET RID OF IT QUICK BEN. I am betting the Giants DL will, after lookin at some film
will be licking thier chops, like a dog in a butcher shop.

 

adams will be ok if not just let miller help him a little bit

 

I was thing the samething during the game yesterday that he's been looking good the last couple games.

 

I dont think its going to matter with the playcalling . Haley has Ben releasing the ball and playing the dink and dunk game. Thats incredibly hard to stop.

Bman

 

:bs: He is going up against NFL caliber players every week. To this point, I don't recall him rolling up on another O-lineman's legs. And as a rookie, he is only going to get better.

 

Has to make you wonder if Gilbert goes right back in at RT when healthy or if they stay with the hot hand.

I was also just thinking about the future of the Tackle spots. Will the goal still be to get Adams over to LT and let Gilbert try to develop more at RT?

 

Starks saved the season last year and is the O-line MVP this year. So long as he is here, there should be no discussion about LT. At this point, I say let the two of them compete against one another for the spot. Competition is always a good thing. Then who ever is on the bench can take a few snaps for Starks now and then to keep him fresh.

 

The bungals were 4th in the league in sacks so they get afater the qb and he did juat fine against them.

 

I don't disagree with this. How old is Starks though? Just wondering how much he has left and was posting with more of an eye on the future.

 

I am going to guess that we bring Starks back next year, but that Adams and Gilbert will be the starting Tackles. Starks is a perfect swing guy as he has played both sides effectively in the past.

 

Adams is playing very well at RT. If they bring Gilbert back in once he's healthy, I'm going to be livid. Hopefully the plan is still to eventually get Adams in at LT. Starks is good, but not great. Adams has far more upside

 

Good point, I was referring to this year. BTW, I'm not ready to give up on Gilbert yet. He may still need a year or so under his belt until we see his full potential.

 

Max has earned his spot.

 

IMO if Adams continues to play the way he has the past 2 games Tomlin would have to be drunk and high to remove him for Gilbert. Even if Adams has A bad game when Gilbert is healthy, dont switch them out.
