Okay let's look at who has been hired so far. Matt LeFleur Kliff Kingsbury Freddie Kitchens Vic Fangio Bruce Arians Adam Gase Arians wouldn't interview with us. I don't see Gase as 2nd fiddle to any of these other guys based on his resume and the fact we wanted an offensive HC. From all indications Gase is more offensive than any of them.
You forget, McCarthy was on the table. For some reason we weren't interested at all in Pete Carmichael. I could see Gase being second fiddle to LeFleur and Kitchens in terms of developing a young QB. Gase hasn't done that.
Romo also went on to say that darnold has a lot of Peyton manning traits. Nice words about the hire from a very respected and football smart guy like Romo.
I believe the fat man. That story with Rhule was fishy as hell. It sounded like a made up story to begin with but definitely one that Rhule would want to be pushed around. Not good for recruiting for it to get out that he was dying to leave Baylor but not chosen. Much better to say to kids "I could be coaching the New York Jets right now but I turned them down to stay here and coach you at Baylor" - or to his assistants "They wanted me to leave but I told them only if I could take you with me, they said no, so I'm back boys"
Jeff Darlington says Gase didn't lose the locker room, 3-4 guys didn't like him and folks ran with the narrative.
Yeah, well, there's a lot of that going around. The majority don't like this pick, and when that's happened in the past with the Jets, the majority was almost always right.
My gut says Mcarthy was the right fit for the current team,My gut also tells me the Gase hire is a terrible move.My gut feelings are right 80% of the time
I doubt much will be accomplished in Tampa. Arian is a short timer and Bowles will never be HC material. Behind the scenes I believe not too many players are impressed by Bowles so call defensive genious.
I've been chewing on this since last night, and here's where I am: 1. I believe this was a bad decision, primarily because of Gase's personality and defensiveness, 2. I hope I'm wrong. 3. I'm going to stop trying to figure this out now, and whether or not I'm going to continue to care about this team. A "sabbatical" might provide some clarity.
This feels like the biggest troll ever. Ever. I'm sorry, actions speak louder than anything else, the results and resume with Gase do not impress me. I cant. People are being niave at this point. Reaching for anything that looks like hope. Been there, done that, not doing it again. Not this time. Fuck them. Fucking asshole morons. So fed up with the Johnson and Johnson stupidity. Year after, year. I'm not putting on the colored glasses, it is what it is. Straight dog shit.
