That's true. Makes me wonder, like so many of our guys that have fallen off a cliff (Woolen) is it... Coaching??He can't tackle for sh** and he's often out of position. He WAS damn good the first couple years here.

It’s the homer syndrome. Our guys can probably rob a liquor store and still sell jerseys around here.It's not just in here that Adams is getting flamed for his "yikes" remark. Here's what Sports Illustrated, not exactly a social media outlet, said about Adams:
What Adams did later in responding to a reporter's social media post making note of Ferguson having scored against the overmatched Adams - "Yikes'' wrote New York media member Connor Hughes - is so out of bounds as to be cowardly.
And here's the headline in Field Gulls:
Jamal Adams insults Jets reporter’s wife in classless, pathetic social media post
So go ahead and keep telling yourself it's a nothing burger. You're in a distinct minority.
Yet people in here rip into Russell Wilson as if he were the Devil himself.It’s the homer syndrome. Our guys can probably rob a liquor store and still sell jerseys around here.
And the Broncos traded up to draft Tim Tebow, the Browns traded up to draft Johnny Football, et al.The Bears traded UP to get Mitch Tribisky. Yeah, they passed on some guy named Mahomes. OUCH
The Saints traded their entire draft to get Ricky Williams. Plus 2 of their top 3 picks the next year. He played 3 seasons in New Orleans. Ouch
TDS MUCHI could post quotes from dozens of insanely rude, pathetic attacks on women, family and other honored people made by a person with the ultimate platform who is admired and grossly worshipped by a large percentage of Americans. And yet “yikes” has your panties in a bunch…lulz
You forgot Geno on that list..Im going Walker JSN and Charbonnet next year.Nah, just give it up. He's the new Satan. First it was Russ, then it was DK, now it's Adams. It'll be someone else next year.
Uhmmm, he has never recovered from effects of that concussion?I would like to dig up the thread after Adams berated a concussion doctor who was just trying to do his job where a number of posters defended Adams by using a BS excuse, that it was the concussion caused him to react the way he did.
So what do y'all say now? What excuse can you come up for this latest incident? Outside of removing the post, which is essentially an admission of guilt, Adams didn't express even the slightest remorse.
So you think that had Adams had a concussion that was so severe as to have caused a major personality change, that it went undetected by some of the top experts in the field, and the doctors prematurely let him out of out of concussion protocol? Is that the best you can come up with?Uhmmm, he has never recovered from effects of that concussion?
We have to keep in mind what our defense, particularly our pass rush, was like when the Adams trade was made.That's true. Makes me wonder, like so many of our guys that have fallen off a cliff (Woolen) is it... Coaching??
Sherman is way smarter and more calculating. For sure, Sherman has some anger management issues, witness his DV conflicts issues in his personal life. However, Sherman has a way of using hyperbole and controversy to get attention, good or bad, and sometimes the "bad" attention winds up serving him in the end. Plus, Sherman had the game to back up his mouth.He was beefing with NY reporters when he was arguably the best safety in the league.
Adam's is like Sherman, a sensitive thin skinned immature brat who can't let even the slightest criticism go un-responded to.
So honestly, I don't think his play has anything to do with this latest nonsense. Maybe there's some latent frustration, but again he was always like this, especially with this reporter.
I guess this stuff fuels these dudes, but it's lame.
YES, I have seen precisely this effect in my personal life with a friend. A gal I knew left her husband for a doctor at a clinic she worked at, and made the mistake of coming back to the house alone, to get some of her things. He had a toddler rage moment and beat her unconscious with a baseball bat, maybe 50 hits, head injuries, concussion, injuries to wrists, ankles. She was incapacitated for 18 months, so he got custody of their two elementary age kids. She had to learn to walk and talk again. Let's just say that after her eventual recovery, she was a little less... reserved? A little less inhibited than before? (FYI this incident was in Pierce County)So you think that had Adams had a concussion that was so severe as to have caused a major personality change, that it went undetected by some of the top experts in the field, and the doctors prematurely let him out of out of concussion protocol?

I think you'd have better luck trotting out the dog ate my homework as an excuse.
So your friend's husband was evaluated by a concussion expert and given a clean bill of health before he attacked your friend with a baseball bat? If that's not the case, then the two situations aren't comparable.YES, I have seen precisely this effect in my personal life with a friend.

There are plenty of football players who have had personality changes, CTE, become violent, aggressive, after a series of head injuries. So I don't really think it's a stretch to suggest that Adams have have taken one, or one dozen, too many hits to the head, to the extent of affecting his level of social restraint, etc. It also appears ongoing mini-concussions could be affecting his on-field judgment and play, i.e., not able to process the game at the level and speed he could a few big hits to the head ago.
Junior Seau and Dave Duerson come to mind, both NFL all-pros, who committed suicide by shot to the chest, in Duerson's case, leaving a note asking for his brain to be donated for research. In Seau's case, I recall him being a dominant beast on the field every time I ever saw him, twice a year with the old AFC West Seahawks vs Chargers, so I don't think his play fell off much by his retirement. However, football-related head injuries can impact different parts of the brain and have different effects from one player to the next.
Or next week.Nah, just give it up. He's the new Satan. First it was Russ, then it was DK, now it's Adams. It'll be someone else next year.
