So are you happy with Gase's development? It's been somewhat of a mixed bag, but I think it's been more positive than negative.
Holy excrement, are we watching the same games?
He's shown he can draw up opening drives that can score on a relatively consistent basis, after being the worst opening drive team in the NFL for years.
So? This is pretty much what I've been saying all along. No one is disputing his ability to watch video and draw up plays, he just has no idea how to call them at the right time. Again, he is a passing game co-ordinator and not a head coach or an OC.
The team competed in pretty much every game despite massive injuries seemingly every week. The team has not quit on Gase.
Really? Tell me more about how we competed against Philly or Cleveland or Jacksonville. I'm not even mentioning the Patriots because, well, we've pretty much given up any hope of competing with them, haven't we? So, yay us for fighting hard against the 0-7 Dolphins and the the 0-11 Bengals, even if we did come up short against them. Great job Adam.
What has Gase done that is so awful that we need to fire him after one season? And please limit it to things that have actually happened.
You mean apart from demonstrating that he's completely incapable of calling plays to respond to the defense that's on the field, and that he doesn't understand how to adapt his playbook to the players he has rather than building a playbook that takes advantage of the roster he has?
Are you seriously saying that you're OK with the club building a roster around a head coach who has failed at every senior coaching level when it has been on him to make it happen?
History is going to show Gase to be a complete fraud. He was Peyton's video and clipboard guy, then Chicago's failed OC, then Miami's failed HC, and now it's just magically going to all work out? He is the least qualified head coach in the NFL. 31 teams are laughing at us and you're defending him out of desperate hope that it will somehow work out.
Let me turn this around. What makes you think this is going to work?
