At least Adams is a force in the running game. Gilbert just sucks all around.

The contracts given to both Gilbert and Allen are looking questionable to say the least.
 
You think Gilbert sucks at pass protection you haven't seen anything until Adams gets in there. He single handedly got Ben killed last year.
 
yeah I agree with Vader no way would I want Adams in there. He is horrible in pass protection.

At left tackle.

He wasn't a total disaster in the passing game at RT in 2012, from what I recall.

Yes he was. He's never been able to pass protect. I kid you not, this is what is written about him on wiki:

Mike Adams (born March 10, 1990) is a terrible American football offensive tackle for the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers. He played collegiate football at Ohio State University.
 
Max Starks stoned Dumerville last time I saw him play. Gilbert made him look like the steal of the century. The only nice thing I saw was no Suggs on Ben.
 
Gilbert stinks and Thomas on the other side of the ball is an embarrassment.
 
The braintrust wants to keep the status quo in place, so they re-sign our current core before their free agency at market value.

Why?
 
They should give serious consideration to giving Wesley Johnson some play time at tackle. Gilbert is terrible in pass protection...he's like Humpty Dumpty in pass protection....little guy gets under him and down he goes like a ton of bricks. Mike Adams just plain sucks! He shouldn't even be on the roster.

And even though anyone could change this if they wanted , he is too lazy to do so.

While I was reading this thread I was thinking yeah Gilbert was bad but Thomas was just as bad on the other side of the ball, you hit the nail on the head. I am not sure who was worse or even if it matters both suck ***!!!!!
 
i thought the WikiP page was a joke, sadly it is not. Hey Mike, put down the J and tell someone to fix that since you are obviously too ******* stupid to do it yourself.

Ark quote of the night. "Gilbert should file a DV complaint against Dumervil"
 
Geez we have spent years and draft picks and money and we just can't fix the line. Time to blow it up, get new scouts, new coaches, new players before we sign another Gilbert contract and fire those responsible. New nick name for gilbert "tea bag"
 
If we're lucky maybe The Rogmeister can find a reason to suspend Gilbert and Adams for the rest of the season.
