Good catch. I didn't see that because I fast forwarded to the snap every play. I wouldn't be too worried about it for a few reasons 1. He diagnosed plays successfully and showed great instincts often. 2. He has made some damn good calls in training camp leading to sacks etc and 3. He is only a rookie who is having to make calls on offenses he has never seen before so it will take time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSJ Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I was encouraged by Adams play. He just needs to clean up his tackling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GKnight83 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 We are calling Adams Sir Whiffsalot in my house now. I counted 4 missed tackles but I counted one where he did not even bother to try and make the tackle. Like a lot of DBs I have seen he may be more interested in hitting the other guy than he is in tackling him. We will see. This was only one bad preseason game. But really what kind of player jumps at the line of scrimmage but does not lift his hands, seriously. Leadership is not about yelling in practice. Leadership is execution on the field!

With all due respect, a few posters here with a good wifi connection and a few magazines you could buy at a newsstand hungover (still drunk even)the morning of the draft could have done as good or a perhaps a better job at drafting than Idzik and Maccagnan together.

I'm content to let their careers play out, am happy with the player everyone had rated over Tim Williams. But hey, you keep scouring the stat lines to give yourself material and calling both players mediocre. I'll just keep in mind your post if improved still would come up way short of mediocre.

And yes you listed a few but Belichick was a retread, Parcells was, Cowher would have been one, Gruden would be one too. Groh, Herm, Mangini, Rex and Bowles aren't. None of this means anyone on the board could run a better draft than whoever. Fans here pimped Fitz, Irsay drafted Manning and Luck, has made the playoffs often and won a SB.

From that video, there's absolutely nothing wrong with the play of J Adams . He had outside containment and he set the edge perfectly . The problem was the guy who made the tackle didn't fill his gap the way he was supposed to allowing the RB a hole to the inside . Adams then had to jump back inside to try and make the tackle .

It wasn't perfectly lined up for him so it's not his fault he whiffed on the tackle. Goodness, some of you would rip out your eyes before admitting a Jets players is at fault for his own play. I'm not concerned about Adams, but damn you went way out of your way to pretend he has no fault on that play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An in the box safety with a top 10 pick with the current state of the roster was beyond absurd. And then they took another one at 36. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
