Matthew Adams joining Flus and AQM in Chicago

[holeymoley99]

Adams another of our special team aces who just couldnt quite play in the base defense. Wish him and AQM and Flus as well success in NFC North.  I know some of us follow former Colts and some couldnt care less once they leave us. Was nice a couple years back when the Jets had 12 ex Colts Assembled to pull for them...lol.

He was solid.  I wish him luck.

remember the play where he started punching the other guy because he couldn't get off the block?

 

he should've been cut then.  glad to see him go.

Actually it wasnt even a punch, was trying to club shed and was called ,didnt even make contact was vs Titans and he didnt get suspended when league reviewed it. Here it is.......weak call

I'll miss Adams. 

 

He really built himself from a fringe-rsoter guy to a special teams ace.

 

I know we have a bunch of guys that excel on ST. 

 

Odum was an All-Pro 2 years ago but then our ST got so great he was almost an afterthought.

 

Dulin was exceptional this year as was Franklin and Speed.

 

And yet Adams may have been the best of them all.

 

He was PFF's 1st team All-Pro.

 

Really earned his chance to get paid, even if just as a specialist.

 

I will give Bubba credit, he is churning out some great, great special team play out of our guys.

 

Good luck to Adams

i appreciate where you are coming from, but he did make contact to his helmet. clearly frustrated after almost getting pancaked.

 

he stands up and chooses to make contact with the blocker again, when he did not need to.  clearly made this choice out of frustration, and the replay shows that.

Played well for his limited role but is the type of player you don’t give a second contract. Bring in another player on a rookie deal to coach up and take his spot.

Likely use Malik Jefferson for his spot, Jefferson is a st ace as well but the hope is he can play base D when needed.

I’m not familiar with him. Thanks for naming him.  I will look into it.

Solid special teams contributor - he will be missed.

 

Best wishes to Adams and AQM.

His punt block against the Patriots last year was a thing of beauty!
