Default Adalius Thomas is a bust

The guy can't keep contain vs the run, can't apply any kind of pressure on the edge, and has been terrible vs the pass. Anyone want to try and convince me otherwise? Our outside backers have been terrible ever since Willie left.

I thought he should've been kept inside.

When Rossie was on, he set the edge and blew it up.

And No, i don't think AD is a bust

Rosie was AWFUL vs the run, got sucked in on every outside rush.

I don't think he's been that bad. Vrabel has had similar problems this season, and Bruschi is just a body out there at this point. Thomas at least has flashed occasionally. Mayo has really been the best linebacker out there consistently, and he's just a rookie learning on the job. He gets out of position sometimes, but he hits like a ton of bricks, has great range and is clearly instinctive for the position. I just think the defense overall is playing poorly, it's way too harsh to single out one guy, even if he did have a down game.

A bust? I'm pissed off, but I've not got to the delusional stage yet.

I wish there wasnt a restriction on the amount of letters you could put cus if there wasnt all i would say is LOL thats all this thread deserves. How can you pick out one guy on a defense and call him a bust. AD does his job and very well there are 10 other guys with him you know
