Observations from the Saints' loss to Carolina

Know I disagreed with Brother Chris during the game commentary, but thought Adebo played very well...

While he gave up short gains, that Michael Thomas 8-yard power-step-in route is hard to defend, he stopped all the big plays and made some crucial open-field tackles...

Should also mention that Adebo could've used some help from the DEs to knock down those quick low-trajectory passes as defenses adjusted vs Drew Brees...

Remember the Panthers have our playbook in Brady and he knows how to pick at even a good CB...

But as a rookie CB2, he had a very solid 2nd game and will learn to jump those routes and give those QBs pause, maybe enough for a sack or even a sack/fumble...

I think you’re right in your assessment. For what he was asked to do he did very well. In the moment I was a little put off by the catches he was allowing but the damage was pretty minimal.
