Jets going down - Angry Gase throws Darnold, Kicker, Anderson, Greggo under the bus. "I can do whatever I want"

Adam Gase summed up his football philosophy in one short sentence.

“That’s the beauty part of being the head coach – I can basically do what I want,” Gase said.

 

Gase’s first shot came when he was asked about the offensive line and whether that unit’s struggles helped explain some of the offense’s overarching inefficiency.

His answer? “Some of it was the O-line, but I would say if we read the coverages correctly with the receivers, some of that isn’t a problem.”

 

Robby Anderson got the worst of Gase’s wrath. The coach was asked about Darnold averaging just 6.25 yards per completion and the lack of shots taken downfield and came back with this clear snipe at his wideout:

“Yeah, if we just make plays on the balls that we actually threw down the field, that’s a different number," Gase said. "I mean, we had opportunities. We had a chance to win the game. We have to come out of our double move. The guy falls down and we don’t come out running. So if we do that, then all of a sudden we’re scoring a touchdown. Guys need to do a better job of executing what they’re supposed to be doing.”

That was a blatant jab at Anderson, who got behind the defense late in the fourth quarter. Darnold’s ball sailed over his head. Apparently, Gase didn’t like Anderson’s effort.

 OK, so Gase ripped into his own offense. How about Gregg Williams’ defense? How’d the cornerbacks look on tape?

“I feel like we have some slight room for improvement," Gase said. "I’ll say that nicely.”

They have the browns, pats, bye, eagles, cowgirls, pats, and jags in that order. It’s a real possibility that they start 0-7. That’s a tough stretch.

 

I think we find out about both the Jets and Browns next week.  I'd like to think I didn't get on their hype train but I most certainly did.  Is TN that good?  Maybe.  I think the Jets win next week though

I really feel for Darnold. He deserves better than this clown for a HC..

Why would you say that?  He's a mediocre second-year QB of a division opponent.  He deserves nothing.

The author spells it out pretty well:

________________________________________________________

But here’s the thing about Gase’s confrontational, fire-and-brimstone approach: It’s great when your team is good. Fans could easily fall in love a straight shooter who won’t sugarcoat things just to save players’ feelings – if that coach also produces wins.

But if things go south? Then all of a sudden, this approach will quickly start to look and feel like sour grapes and blame avoidance. Just ask Dolphins fans.

Gase wasted no time placing that high-stakes gamble.

---------------------------_______________________________________

I mean, here's the deal.  If their D manages to confuse your QB about the coverages - is it all on the QB, or could the coaches have done more to help him prepare and ID the coverages?  If the WR doesn't hook up with the ball, is it 'cuz he didn't turn on the afterburners, or did the QB just out-throw him? 

 

"I'll say this nicely": This guy kind of comes across as a bit of a psychopath.

It's tough to have it both ways.  The penchant for "coach speak" after a tough loss is somewhat universally detested.  I heard that criticism of Flores' comments about how they all have to be better and it's on all of them, etc.  Then a coach speaks frankly about his team's shortcomings and he can criticized for that too.  He could throw in a blunder or two that was on him to make it seem like he was being real.
