The Curious Case of Adam Gase

[d sw0rdz]

Holy freak this is exactly what I didn’t want to read during the entire offseason.

We know who hates him (I’m one of those). We know why.

He’s not getting fired before next season starts unless he gets a dui or punches his wife, neither of which have been a problem for him in the past, so let’s just take a break on this thread for a month.

this LOL. i'm not a gase fan but there is no way you can justify firing him after a season in which our team and offensive line got wrecked the way they did with injuries. the horrible talent and depth we had on the OL coming in this year had absolutely nothing to do with either gase or douglas, it had everything to do with maccagnan's horrible GM-ing. i understand there has been an effort to paint gase as an offensive guru and people are mad, but there is no way to scheme against what happened to our team this year. people are mad that he didn't make gold out of broken 10 cent packs of ramen noodle soup.

he is getting another shot at it next year, get over it.

If we Fire Gase now, we can prob get some Cap Savings to use toward our next head coach contract

I’m sure offense and QB development are a big piece but as dumb as our owners have been, I don’t think they’d hire a head coach if he didn’t have an entire plan in place when being interviewed.

People don’t want to give the dude any credit.  This is his staff.  He retained Boyer.  He brought in Gregg Williams and that defensive staff.

This is his coaching staff. 

Everyone wants to whine about Loggains, but not applaud him for Gregg.

That's not true
greg was mandated
And it's been said on multiple occasions that gase has nothing to do with the defense

[insanity]

No you're not, you're changing things we say to argue with a boogeyman because you have no argument. Nobody is looking to extend Gase for five years at this point, and the last time I checked, pro football was a business based on winning or losing first and foremost. The record didn't end up nearly as the doomsayers were hoping for at 1-7, so you've painted yourselves into a corner now of wanting to fire a coach over stats. If the stats were better and the record was worse you'd be going that way, and you'd have more of a case, but you don't so you have to play word games.

Technically it's based on championships

Gase has won zero in 4 years

Everyone was mandated except for Dowell Loggains, right?

On a serious note, the fact that Gase has done nothing to change the offensive staff really puts pressure on him next year. I didn't think he would make significant changes since he runs the offense, so he wants guys he is comfortable working with. But even with the offensive line issues, the offense was still hard to watch last season. By not making any changes, this puts more pressure on himself to get it done next year.

I wanted Gase to make tweaks to the staff, didn’t expect him to. The guy is in a serious case of denial if he thinks Dowell Loggains is an asset to him and will help him succeed.

But we still love you Dowell!

Why cant these freaking coaches see what we see every week? It's just depressing.

I'm with you here.

You would think since our offense was ranked dead last, there would be some coaching turnover.  I'm blown away Gase stood pat.


Even more surprising is that Gase hasn't fired his strength and conditioning staff.  Players are going to get injured....but the way they handled their recoveries (ie Mosley) was subpar.

The recoveries and the corresponding treatment isn't on the strength guy, that's on the Dr. and the team's therapists. They're the ones creating the treatment plans. The strength guy should be the one preventing injuries in the first place and they should look at all of them because something was seriously wrong there.

Agreed.

I guess they all got raises because the jets went 6-2 down the stretch.  ::)
