While you have a few jack offs like SAR1 trying to validate Gase's innocence, i want you all to remember going into 2019 how optimistic we all were...

Now, this is what the trademark Gase team looks like:

  • Trade Darnold?
  • Bell was the not problem
  • Adams Gone, Bell Gone, who;s next?
  • Can we get a first for Darnold?
  • Who's next?
  • Kotite shout outs (who knew that day would come)
  • Crowder Next
  • Rock Bottom

Digusting and sad. Team has been gutted and talent driven into the hills. 18 months ago, we had a franchise QB, and a sense of momentum. Today we're the worst team in pro football

The roster is worse today than when JD started. He has had quite a few bumps along the way. Doctson,Vedvik,Kalil,Ballage,Gore.

Im not sold  on JD as GM of this organization. 

He gets no pass from me.

The Gase hire was disastrous, but we never had the momentum that many thought we did because the roster was always trash. 

Momentum might be generous, but optimism and sense of orientation were there. We had the QB figured out for the first time in a decade, and we had lots of money to spend. There was direction, without a doubt.

If we had hired McCarthy, I doubt we are in the same place we are now. And McCarthy wanted the job. 

If we hired Rhule, you mean. I can't believe people are still harking back to McCarthy. He would be better than Gase, i agree - but the 20/20 answer is Rhule

Agreed. 

I will say that if Darnold never got Mono, the team could have possibly turned 7 wins into 9 wins and a playoff berth and that may have given the young core group of players enough confidence to build on things going forward. But that is a best case scenario.

This all falls on the clueless ownership.  There are many leaders in this world that are not the smartest person in the room but they know enough to put those who are smart in positions to direct their team/company.

A big issue is owners increasingly making the biggest football decisions. Only a very few are qualified or can do this better than your average fan.

- Believed in mccaganans 'plan'

- Finally fired bowles but inexplicably and lazily did not fire the gm who at that point had 100% proved he was terrible

- Let the disaster GM have one last disaster off season

- Totally botch the coach search and panic hiring an obviously lousy candidate on the word of a phone call from an ex player. (Learned nothing from the Bills hiring of Rex disaster.)

- Let the new flawed coach essentially fire the GM.  (Horrible org structure of having the coach and gm have the same power and report separately to the owner leading to back stabbing.

-  Good move alert!  Hired a good looking new gm candidate that at least has promise.

- Doubles down on his coaching idiocy by saying the guy who is terrible is an offensive genius.

 - Fails to fire the coach and like the mccagnan issue is letting him damage the team right to the bitter end.

It all goes back to the people making the most important decisions.

And here's the sexy part.  The Jets have validated his innocence by knowing that Gase doesnt make the decision on Darnold and now they got Bell out of his hair.

They basically all but came out and confirmed Adam Gase will be grooming Lawrence.

JETS BABY!!!

Possibly, but the point/crux of this is that Gase's leadership style (or lack thereof) creates this gravity well that pulls the team down and apart over time. If you remember, initially the Gase led MIA team had pockets of success w/ Tannehill before eventually eroding EXACTLY in the manner we are.

He is not leader.

With McCarthy,  it was never about what offense he installed (Even his dated WCO would be light-years ahead of whatever it is Gase does), it was about his ability to develop a solid foundation for Darnold. He knows how to develop a young, raw QB, and would have placed Darnold in a position to succeed.  

 

Instead, we brought in the Franchise Killer.

Gase was a terrible hire, as most first-guessed he would be.

I don't know that Rhule was going to take the job. I know McCartjy was going to. 

He did, he's the from the area and wanted the job. He didn't want CJ/Macc's insistence on hiring Greg Williams, or other handpicked staff.

The 20/20 answer is that the Johnson family should've given a blank check and unlimited power to Bill Belichick.  :)
