Hughes is really going out on a limb

I don't remember hearing about this?

it took Darnold marching into Gase’s office for an Xs and Os discussion in the middle of the season to get the Jets rolling on offense

.....

A second-year quarterback had to be the one to take charge and layout which plays he wanted to run because Gase couldn’t figure out what worked best for his signal-caller and supporting cast.

I do. Apparently Gase was thrilled. He was excited Sam wanted to try and involve himself more in the offensive planning process.

Here I was thinking that Sam was nervous telling his boss how to do his job.

This was talked about several times throughout the year. 

It's what quarterbacks should do.

I agree, it was just news to me.

This seems quite hyperbolic.  Good coaches should adjust to a players strengths and weaknesses, but some things are internal and it's Darnold's responsibility to express a lack of comfortably with certain plays/concepts. 

[Heismanberg]

All the best QBs take control and let their coaches know what they like and do well. 

Darnold took a step forward as a player and a leader when he did that. 

I don't think he was comfortable doing that early in the year because he always had Josh McCown to sort of lean on in those meetings. 

[Heismanberg]

I think it's a positive for Adam Gase because he adapted. 

There's some stuff out there, particularly about his time in Miami, where he was very dismissive of Jarvis Landry when he asked for changes in the offense.

It's cool to see Gase adapt his offense WITH Darnold.

Darnold is lucky Tough Shop didn't slap his face and tell him to "fall in line".

[Derek Smalls]

I remember this being a big deal for the Gase haters, who said that Darnold needed to tell Gase how to run his offense. I viewed it as a positive.

You have to go under center more when your offensive line stinks, especially at center

OL's fault

Clearly the problem is Loggains, he's just holding Gase back.
