Watch: Davante Adams torches the 49ers in every possible way

The 49ers had no answers for Packers receiver Davante Adams, and it showed on multiple occasions.

There are games in which your defense faces a superior opponent, and you just have to take the “L” and move on. That was the case for the San Francisco 49ers, and their various defensive exploits against Green Bay Packers receiver Davante Adams. In Green Bay’s 34-17 Thursday night win, Adams grabbed 10 receptions on 12 targets for 173 yards and a touchdown, and he blew San Francisco’s defense up from just about everywhere.

There was this beauty of a 36-yard touchdown in the first quarter against cornerback Emmanuel Moseley:

Though Moseley did shut down the vertical route on Green Bay’s next drive.

Here, he’s playing cat-and-mouse with safety Jimmie Ward.

And this stutter-go against cornerback Jason Verrett, combined as it was with Aaron Rodgers’ pump-fake, was just unfair. When you get lost in the supermarket against Davante Adams, you’re in big trouble.

Also to note: If you’re going to play press-man against Adams from the slot, it had better look better than whatever this was. Adams is probably the NFL’s best receiver when asked to beat press. Cornerback Jamar Taylor, who made last week’s Secret Superstars team on Touchdown Wire, did not have a star turn here.

Adams is as good as it gets at his position in the NFL, and the 49ers are now painfully aware of that fact.
