Is Adams becoming a liability?

First let me say that I am happy with the win today. Great job by the D, rushing attack and in the air. But . . .

I am really starting to get tired of the drops By Adams. He must really be showing some skill during practice because the drops during gameday have been a killer the past few weeks. The margin for error is getting smaller as the Pack enter the post-season. There is no room for these mistakes anymore.

The thought crossed my mind today just how valuable a proven wr is and they're not necessarily the dime a dozen we assume (hint, Ted, sign Cobb!).

He clearly has been iffy the last half of this season, he has apparently not been on the same page with 🇦🇷 on a number of routes. I believe he has talent for the future, but it's hard not to look at him that way going into the playoffs

But you are right there is no margin for error starting today.
He has to tighten his shit up. Unfortunately there is no other option at this point.

I don't think he's an upgrade over Adams.

It makes me think how bad Boykin is and how raw Janis must be. They have the best QB in the league and they are behind a guy without hands in the depth chart.

Curiously when Adams/Boykin are in their worst games Jordy and Randall have a fantastic day.

With a reliable 3rd WR the offense would be impossible to stop.

How we came into this season with Richard Rodgers and Andrew Quarless as our top TE's is a huge mystery especially given how much Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy love their TE's. We need that big time TE to help vs. those better defenses.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Adams has been good. He's not what I think about when I think about weaknesses of this team. He's been a solid rookie.

Dude is head and shoulders above where Jennings, Jones, Nelson and Cobb were as rookies.

But he is still a rookie.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol
