McCarthy's Offense: McAdoo Edition

[call_me_ishmael]

The offense does seem to have recovered from the 2015 and early 2016 debacles but it still doesn't feel like it is humming along as it should or did in 2014. ARod is too good for the results we're seeing. It still seems like the home run threat is never there and we're constantly dinking and dunking to get down the field. Admittedly, I'm unable to watch the games as closely these days so I could very well be off base here.

A theory I don't totally believe, but have considered, is Jordy Nelson is an average #2 right now, and Devante Adams is not a great player. Cobb has the most "athletic" ability but he is still so small.

Anyway, I do not want to pay Adams big bucks at the end of this year. He never seems to get any separation at all. That is the exact opposite of Nelson and Jennings, who both lived up to their 2nd contracts. They consistently had separation.

Really? To me Adams seems like he is better at getting separation than you suggest.
