Was Adams the steal of Free Agency?

 

Adams and White played well. The defense was better in the second half. Tougher matchup on MNF. Smith plays better in a dome but yesterday he dispelled the narrative he struggles outside. I fully expect us to have a much better season overall playoffs or not. One game at a time...

 

Agreed on all fronts. Loved hearing how many times White's name was called. He racked up the tackles.
