Two weeks in a row he's going to cost us th game..

He's making way too much money and he's missing clutch field goals to help us win.

This is what happens when you post in anger before the game is over the Colts do something like destroy the 49ers even with the missed field goal and make your anger statement about costing us the game look silly and like a complete over reaction which it was.

 

As for Adam he has now missed four of his last five from beyond 50.  He has the leg but not the accuracy from the long.  I don't think we dump him but I do think we need to rethink what we do when we are looking at a kick from beyond 50 either go for it or let Pat kick from there out there.

That miss could have really cost us.

Luckily the D bailed Adam out.

So that makes the score what 1 to like 30 for all the time Adam has bailed out his defense after they gave up score that tied a game and he hits a game winning kick?

 

It's a team effort it all balances out in the end. 

 

I said earlier this thread that I am a little concerned with Adam from beyond 50 for the first time but let's not try to make this a bigger deal than it was.  Yes the miss could have hurt us but so could have not getting the first down there that set up them having to kick the field goal in the first place.  It didn't because of how the rest of the game went.  So let's not try to make it worse than it was.  I do think we need to think about what we do when it's from beyond 50 yards on a kick but I also think saying it could have really cost us would have depended on something else going wrong too.  

 

I do think this will be AV's last year with the Colts.

I'm not sure why you quoted me......

I wasn't going on a diatribe about Vinny, just stating in the context of the game and momentum that was a bad time to have a miss.

    • I'm not saying he is about to be a sack machine but you can see some of his potential as a one gap penetrator with that frame.    
    • Davis came from Alabama. My point of interest as the writer highlighted is he is moving from being a 2 gapper into now only being responsible for a single gap with a lot more penetration from him versus read and react. With his length and power at 6ft 7 300 plus the expectation for him in our scheme is he will be more disruptive. A much more reliable option for us if Grover goes down in addition to whatever else maybe we can do with him.
    • Thank you. You guys are too kind, but I truly appreciate the support.    Perhaps I am being too hard on myself… But my point still stands that anyone who makes it to the NFL, whether practice squad or starter, has achieved something prestigious that only a rare few ever achieve.    Over a million high schoolers play. Of those only 7.8 percent move on to play in college.    Over 80,000 people play in college. Only 0.4 percent make it to opening day in the NFL.    Only 2,016 players make it to NFL rosters. 
    • Davis had a very good rookie season after being drafted in the 2nd round out of Ohio State (I believe).   Graded in the 70’s against both the run and pass.      But his last three years have been disappointing, as he’s graded in the mid-50’s.   The reason I’m so interested in this signing, is (A) I’m sure it was heavily influenced by the new DL coach, Partridge.   And (B) we’re paying him 2/14.  I don’t recall that kind of money ever being given to a basic backup before.   Don’t think Davis is here to push Stewart, the Colts just signed him to 3/39.  That tells me the Colts defensive staff sees him differently.   I don’t know what the plan the staff has come up with for Davis, but I’m looking forward to watching it play out.
