All we have said is that he's not good enough to be a teams top receiver and I'll stand by that no matter how many times he is an allstar. bearpants and Tracker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of you also said Nichols should be sitting and Streveler should be starting and MOS should be fired. It's a good thing fans don't run football teams.

All’s I know is, I would have a difficult time not having a Singleton or a Bighill on my all-star team. But you probably wouldn't employ either of them as your starting SAM.

Sinopli b/c the media prefers the east.... Bighill, should be unanimous... Revenberg b/c he's Canadian... Lewis Ward b/c 42 consecutive (or whatever it was) is very impressive... JLW b/c the leagues needs to pander to the riders... Jones b/c it guarantees the clown show will continue for at least another year...

AKAChip Posted November 8, 2018 Report Share Posted November 8, 2018 It will be Bo, Harris, Bighill, Bryant, Ward, Ward, Jones. It’s a shame that Jones will be COTY but there is no way Campbell beats him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about numbers, it's about how they perform when put in a position where they need to be the star, and Adams has failed. The fact that this team can't win without Dressler in the lineup says everything we need to know about Adams ability to be the teams top receiver. blue_gold_84, blue85gold, The Classic and 1 other 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been fairly solid since, with no turnovers! CodyT and TBURGESS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. He’s a legit number one receiver. Not the best in the league but one of the best big play receivers, and red zone receivers in the game. Not his fault he gets double teamed because our other American receivers other than Dressler are useless. The Classic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

do or die Posted November 8, 2018 Report Share Posted November 8, 2018 Adams is a talented guy, who can produce.....when he is focused and locked in. But threatening the D on the other side of the field, with the deep ball, has been an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty did a bit more with the longer throws last game he started..... he does more of it this Sunday and it can take him from game manager to game changer..... if Matt makes a few nice longer tosses early the riders won't know how to defend it an what they had planned......and then everything opens up for us and we blow them out.......

do or die Posted November 8, 2018 Report Share Posted November 8, 2018 Sure, if we can open up the field a bit more deep ......our misdirection and hybrid backfield sets, will find more holes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that this team can't win without Dressler in the lineup says everything we need to know about Adams ability to be the teams top receiver. There is absolutely zero correlation between the two. What poor logic. I won't make excuses for Adams' shortcomings but his numbers this season and last when Dressler was injured aren't bad: 2017: 7 GP, 469 yards, 3 TDs 2018: 4 GP, 309 yards, 4 TDs And an all-star nod is about numbers (production). It's an individual nomination for a player having a good individual campaign. 1000 yards and 10 TDs is more than sufficient for the nod he received.
