Jamal Adams: Adam Gase isn’t the right leader for the Jets organization


Recommended Posts

Quote

I don’t feel like he’s the right leader for this organization to reach the Promised Land,” Adams said. “As a leader, what really bothers me is that he doesn’t have a relationship with everybody in the building.

“At the end of the day, he doesn’t address the team,” Adams added. “If there’s a problem in the locker room, he lets another coach address the team. If we’re playing sh---y and we’re losing, he doesn’t address the entire team as a group at halftime. He’ll walk out of the locker room and let another coach handle it.”

Gase’s recent claim that his relationship with Adams “has been good since the time I’ve gotten here” and “there’s been a lot of dialogue between us” appears to be the latest in a series of exaggerations and/or prevarications. Adams told the News that he hasn’t spoken to Gase since his exit interview on the day after the end of the regular season (Dec. 30).

Gase did not respond to a message for comment.

You don’t need to have a relationship with everyone in the building.

You don’t need to address problems with the team or speak to the team at half time.

 

You need to have good players that can execute the plays based off a sound game plan on Game Days.

 

Jets don’t have good players...their coaching staff doesn’t develop good game plans.

 

Look at it this way...

 

Change nothing about GASE, except make him a Game Planning/Playcalling genius.

 

No one would say anything

 

You can be aloof and weird if you are great.  But when you are not a good coach AND you are aloof and weird...disaster.

Thank god we're finally off this cycle of hiring failed retread coaches just because that's all that will take the job (Jauron, Gailey, Rex)

 

Who in their right mind hires Adam Gase coming off his stint in Miami?  The red flags were all there, and if anything, they've gotten worse under the microscope in NY.

 

Teams that fail to learn from the past, deserve all the misery that they get

Some coaches get the most out of their players like McDermott and some coaches don't. Gase appears to be in the latter group of coaches...which is why the Jets will never be a threat while he is their coach.

 

If you think leadership doesn't matter you couldn't be more wrong. Great leaders inspire, poor ones demoralize.

I would argue that even though you are right- you don't need to have a relationship with everyone or address the team at halftime, a real leader WILL do those things when they are neccesary. Leaders don't just do things their way all the time. Sometimes you figure out what is needed by the people following you and do it because it needs to be done. Leading is the ultimate "team" activity, which means you do whatever is best for the team- regardless of whether you like it or not. It is the leaders' responsibility to get the most out of the players.

 

Clearly Adams needs more out of his coach. Maybe Adams is being unreasonable, but maybe it is Gase and he's not flexible enough to effectively lead these men.

He’s trying so hard to get out of there.  As long as he ends up in the NFC. The Washington, Lions, or Eagles all have at least $20,000,000.

 

He is a bit of a drama queen but he is a really good player. I know the Jets would never trade him here but I wouldn't mind seeing him on the Bills. I don't think he would have that bad attitude playing for a real leader like McDermott. Winning cures all so he would be happy playing here. As a bonus he would absolutely want to stick it to the Jets every time. With all that said I hope he gets traded to the NFC as well.

So what you’re saying is, if he was a good coach people wouldn’t make fun of him for being a bad coach?....

Good player but man, does this guy ever shut up? He has to be the whiniest crybaby in the league.

 

The one thing not stressed enough about this Bills team is that since getting rid of guys like Incognito and, to a lesser extent, McCoy, they're pretty much all good dudes who are easy to cheer for.

Gase isn’t the right leader for any organization.  Hiring him was just another sign that the Jest are as dysfunctional as ever.  They’re a true reflection of their owner.
 

Jamal Adams wants out and I do not blame him one bit.

I don't agree. I don't think you can be aloof. You don't have to be the players' friend but you have to be present. Gase is aloof and a sulker. He puts himself above the team, always. He actually is a pretty good playcaller. But he does not have the make up to be a successful Head Coach.

If it wasn't for being able to ride Peyton Manning's coattails in Denver would Gase even be a HC? It's clear Adams just wants out which would suck for them but be good for us in the long run. He's probably their best defensive player.

I don’t think they have the right ownership neither. Lots of pride, egotism and arrogance in that organization. I think there’s a lot wisdom in acknowledging what you don’t know because you can ask yourself the right questions that’ll lead you to the correct answers and intellectual growth. Problem with Woody and Gase is that they think they know everything which is stagnant water in terms of growth. I don’t view the Jets as a threat until they’re under new ownership. Same situation with Snyder over in DC. Glad to have the Jets in our division. They’re wasting Darnold’s talent by all of the dysfunction in that franchise. Good for the Bills though.

No do I. I do like Joe Douglas the GM though. If they get out of the way and let him work they will get better.

He has a 6 year contact with the Jets. I don't think he would have taken the job if he didn't get a long term commitment. He knows there is a lot of work to be done and this won't be fixed in a year of two. Just curious to see if he is allowed to fire Gase. Gase  was hired by Johnson first and he also played a big part in convincing ownership to hire Douglas. Same the situation with the Bills in their hiring of McDermott then Beane.

Since I’m a big man and so rarely wrong, I am raising my hand to say I couldn’t be more wrong about Gase.  Like I never thought he was a great coach but I thought he would be fine if he just developed Darnold.  Since that adderall press conference, he was been a total weirdo.  Coaches like him getting second chances before Eric Bienemy gets one are a joke.

 

the sad part is I think Darnold can be really good but he is toxic environment.  If not for that one SB 50 years, they would be one of the worst franchises in sports.  What a joke.

I agree. However, there are genius coaches who do it the opposite way and motivate the people around them and do a good job managing egos of good players and the brilliant coaches around them and have enough football iq to know who to delegate to. I think there are different ways to be great. In the end, though, you need good players and good coaches collectively.

It seems like such an easy job too.  Build up the line and load up on skill players.  As much as fans talk about how bad Allen’s weapons have been, Darnold has had awful targets.  That franchise is a joke,

I wouldn't call it sad. At the time of the draft Darnold was the one I wanted the Bills to get. Allen has done a good so far considering he was supposed to sit for a year. This year is put up or shut up time for Josh.

There have been numerous coaches that are good X's and O's guys.  Unfortunately, many of them have no charisma and are not capable of really relating to their organizations.  The few that are great at both are rare.  Bill Walsh is the best example that I can think of who was great at both.  I don't think that anyone would project Gase being in the mold of Walsh or anyone like him.  Selecting a guy to lead your football team because he is a good play caller is total folly.  The JESTS will continue to be a dumpster fire until they overpay to get an established capable head coach in the building.  They have shown that they are willing to over pay for free agent players.  Doing this for a good head coach would be more productive.  Let the coordinators be the X and O guys and the head coach be the strong leader.  I have to admit that I take great pleasure watching the JESTS flounder like an intoxicated mud wrestler ( like that visual?).  Like others have stated, it's great that the Bills are out of this recycled failed head coaching merry go round.

Just about every fan from every team has known that Gase is not cut out to be a HC. He is a Slightly better than ave OC as well. 

Wouldnt even call him an above average OC. Not counting when he had Peyton Manning who is basically his own offensive coordinator, his offenses have ranked 21st, 24th, 25th, 31st, and 32nd

If we’re playing sh---y and we’re losing, he doesn’t address the entire team as a group at halftime. He’ll walk out of the locker room and let another coach handle it.”

 

 

Here's a tip: stop playing "sh---ty" and STFU.  No one wants to drink your tears, son.

I never heard of a head coach not talking to the time at halftime. That’s weird.  Gase is weird.  He seems antisocial.
