Robyn has been forcing himself to think "Skyfall" is flopping since it came out. He just needs to believe it.

People throw around "underperforming"/ "flop" way too loosely. BEEN ONLY three DAYS.

I don't think they were targeting Born This Way , I mean they wouldn't mind if it broke its record , but they didn't obsess over it.
But no , the song is slaying so far. It has a 50% lead over PSY , even if it's only its second day I think it's doing great.
However that 200K prediction from Billboard seems underwhelming for Adele , but wait till the song reaches the gp.

Now, don't go all in on Robyn for asking a question.
But to answer the question in the OP:

Didn't Born This Way have the Grammy promotion too ?

Of course it's underperforming. Obviously Adele should be #1 in ALL 63 iTunes countries instead of just 59.
Seriously?!

I don't think they had this high expectations.
It's still one of the most successful Bond songs.

the difference is that Gaga hyped the hell out of BTW and the rules were much different that it was much easier for her to debut at #1
Adele is doing more than fine...its wasn't as hyped and had to overcome a lot this week

But really. If they cared about debuting at number one they wouldn't have released it on a Friday...
