How Does Gase Have The Audacity To Be Irritated?

He definitely views himself as a football God and everyone else is a peasant. Keep in mind he's also the same expert-level talent evaluator who brought Julius Thomas here.

Donald Trump and Gase the same person?:shifty:

Meh... in a way... he's right whether you like it or not.

We can sit here all day and try and interpret plays, and give our opinions on them, and what we think we saw, but at the end of the day what he's saying is true. He knows the playcall. He knows what's supposed to happen on that play, and why they've called it, and therefore after reviewing the tape he knows what happened and has the ability to say yes, what happened is what was supposed to, or wasn't.

We don't know that as much as any of us want to sit here and talk about it and give our opinions. Ultimately, him, Cutler, the rest of the offense, they're the ones who know.

Much like how we pick apart defensive plays, or blame one player or the other on D for a blown coverage. We're just spitting out our opinions on what we think we saw. They know, we're assuming, interpreting, and offering opinions.

So, I assume, there's an awful lot of cases where the reporters in PC's are asking questions that are quite stupid, because their assessment is wrong based on that assumption, much like our's here likely is.

I'm not sure why you're so personally offended by this. Clearly he's upset with the performance of the offense, and clearly he's also upset with people trying to assign blame (or whatever) based on what they think they see, if what they're seeing isn't correct.

Sure, they've made mistakes along the OL. That's obvious to anyone etc. etc.

I think what he's more referring to though is the folks in the media and such out there saying things as if they're fact, and their evaluation or assumption of what happened on the play is flat out wrong, because well, as I said earlier, they don't know the playcall.

It's like that famous argument when a QB misses a WR on what's clearly a miscommunication between the two. They both yell at each other, and fans ,and the media assigns blame to someone because... well... that's what we do when we talk about the game. However, some of us are going to say OMG... what a terrible throw/decision by the QB! He's awful! Others are going to go... naw... the WR ran the wrong route! he sucks! Really though, the only one's who actually know, are the QB, the WR, the coaches... I think that's ultimately his point

I guess being last on O in this league really means you're doing a hell of a job, keep up the great work Gace. Now don't question what you see, we're too stupid to understand....

Brothers from different Mothers maybe?

I said in another post that watching the game back, Ajayi bounced almost every run outside because the holes were small through the middle. And it would be easy to say it's Gase's fault for calling plays in the A/B gap when it's not really there, but you could also flip that around and say Ajayi wasn't doing his job. Small holes are still holes and he chose to go against the blocking scheme to freelance, so I'd be pissed off as a head coach too.

As for Cutler, I don't think he looked bad on any one series this year so far. Yet I haven't seen that big separation from our receivers very often and Landry is getting smothered as soon as he catches the ball. The attempted TD pass to Thomas last week that was picked? I think it's crazy that we didn't have Parker over there one on one. But it's also possible that Gase wasn't seeing the effort from Parker so it's very hard to play arm-chair QB and second guess.

FOR NOW, I have complete faith in Gase and his ability to turn around the 2017 season. People keep ignoring that impossible road trip we just went on- that's a massive factor that shouldn't be ignored. This is our first time home in a month and I think it will make a big difference this week....just remember that it is still a short week since we had to fly home from London. So it's probable that we will lose this week as well as we make adjustments and get the offense reset. I hate saying that but it's true- you can't fix big problems in two or three practices.

Impressed you used the word audacity! :up:

The A/B gap is never there, our guards suck too much to make it work. Ajayi is just trying to make the best of a bad situation its not his fualt. Gase kept calling it over and over instead of running outside zone which is what ajayi excells at. Gase said himself he did not know how to run outside zone before last season and has been having to learn on the fly, he should have had it down by now bit it appears he is still not there yet.

Cutler has thrown many bad passes, ha has missed wide open recievers on numerous occassions either because he underthrew it, sailed it, or threw it behind recievers. Hiss accuracy has been all over the place. He seems to throw the slant and the out routes very well and he has a good deep ball. Everything else has been very innacurate and off with the timing.

Yes all the flying I think has been a factor. However there are clear deficiencies in the way we are calling plays and the general scheme of the offense both running and passing that need to be changed in my opinion.

Its funny people will defend Cutler when his entire career has been people mocking him for being a dipshit.

If he wasn't a Dolphin not a single person here would say hes a good QB without being laughed at.

I agree about the o-line.

Cutler has missed some throws, but his comp% is 67. His accuracy isn't the problem. The timing is off, but that's not an accuracy issue. I think the o-line and the play calling have not allowed this offense to get into a rhythm.

I liked him in Denver and I liked him in Chicago. I think he's become jaded due to the inconsistency in his career with teams/coaches/players. He definitely has the ability to be a very good QB in this league and saying he's "good" isn't a stretch.

Saying that, I really wish they had taken a look at Kaep. I'm on the record as saying that at this point in their careers I believe Kaep's ceiling is higher. However, I also think Kaep's floor is lower.

Sure. Ok great. Glad I know now that I don't know how to watch football right. That's fantastic to know. I think I still have one layer of knowledge that isn't able to be brushed away so easily. WE CAN'T SCORE FREAKING POINTS! Am I also watching the scoreboard wrong? Do we all need some enlightenment on that? The O-line that can't block? Gase, that's YOUR O-line. The receivers who could handily catch last year but CANNOT CATCH WITH CUTLER? Yeah Gase, that's Cutler who is throwing them. Did we have some special talisman last year that caused our receivers to be able to catch and our RB the ability to get open that we don't have this year? We got VERY lucky at the end of the Jets game. With the exception of that last second catch, we have been shut out the last two games by two of the worst defenses in the league. So as opposed to ripping into how we are watching and what we know, why don't you go and fix the offense which is supposedly your samurai knowledge level? IF we fixed the Offense from the Jets game into that pathetic hunk of dog shit we saw during the Saints game, you should straight up be fired. Be grateful you still have your job and fix the O!

To all of those out there who want to remind us of the fact we went 0-4 last year and then turned it around, shut up. We were never this horrific last year. The fact that it got turned around had as much luck as it had to do with skill. We shouldn't expect something like that to just happen again. Though, I of course would love it if it did.

Lol. Yes. I do enjoy a good word. Egregious. I would like to use it in a sentence. The offense is egregiously horrid. Where's my gold star?

Its not a popular view, but Gase is going to get a pass from me this year, unless he does something that is just godawful. I did not buy into the hype going around that Cutler was coming in here to give us a "real" QB, and watch what he can do with all of this "talent". So we have a 2nd year coach, that lost his starting QB before the season even started. Objectively if you had this same thing on any other team that you didn't cheer for what would be your expectation?

Cutler even in his prime was not as good as Tannehill. Tannehill had better touch by his 2nd season then I ever saw from Cutler. When we lost Ryan the season outlook took a giant hit. Cutler was nothing more then the best choice of a horrible situation. We will see Cutler put a few good games together, but in the long run he will break your heart if you think he is going to give you a solid run leading us deep in the playoffs. The only way that happens is if our run game takes all the pressure off of him. And for that to happen this offensive line needs to get fixed.

Its also time to re-evaluate the talent on this team. We have potential everywhere, but NOBODY on the offense is a star. We don't have a guy that we can count on to pull out a big play and turn the game around. When the offense is struggling, it feels like everyone is looking around waiting for someone to fix it. Tannehill was the closest we had (also probably not a popular opinion) when he was out there I knew his head was going to be in the game till the very last play.

Having Cutler here hopefully shows us where our team is really at. Its common to blame the QB for a lot of the problems on a team, he gets paid the most so he takes most of the blame... but what if that isn't the case?

WR - tons of potential. Parker is a 50/50 player at this point in his game. He will make an awesome catch one play, and look completely lost the next time, I had hoped this year would be the year something clicked. Teams aren't game planning to take him away from us, he does that himself. Landry plays hard, and has great hands, but with his speed he isn't going to get good separation, and the defenses aren't afraid of him. Stills is probably the best of the three at this point. Defenses are afraid of his speed, and he actually does run some good routes even when not taking the top off of the defense, but Defenses aren't spending significant resources to stop him. Combined we appear strong on paper, but it doesn't show up on the field.

OL - feels like every year with this unit... We have to get this fixed. The OL being a mess has made evaluating QBs hard, evaluating game plans impossible, and making a Offense that on paper looks to be competitive actually look like hot garbage. Tannehill might have actually been making this unit look better then it was... which is comical, cause they looked awful with Tannehill in there.

TE - I was actually excited to see what this unit could do this year. I have seen Fasano have a couple great plays (mostly in blocking), but I haven't seen anything from Thomas yet.

RB - I like Ajayi, he runs hard and seems like a beast to take down. I honestly can't tell if he isn't being used right, or if he is just another victim of the O-line play. My guess is a little of both.

PENALTIES - These are happening so much I pretty much consider them part of our offense... When everything is going wrong already, you can't put yourself in 3rd and longs...

On the plus side maybe the front office is starting to get in sync. I was critical of the year before, but I really like this last draft. That infusion of young talent on D is going to translate to us having a few years to work out this offense.

You're going to give him a pass? I agree on seeing what the rest of the season looks like. But, if this trend of absolute incompetence on O continues and plays out to what looks like a 4-12 year, I think him simply being fired would be kind. Think about it, this is what we get in year TWO? He had an entire offseason to prepare for this season and we get this? We all pretty much said that T-Hill and Cutler are more or less comparable from a skills standpoint so that shouldn't make that massive of a difference. If I were Ross, I'd already be having back channel conversations on a new Coach and be ready to get Harbaugh out of Michigan via like 7 brinks trucks if we finish anywhere south of 8-8 which is my keep Gase limit.

Who thought Tannehill and Cutler were similar?

Tannehill went down during camp. Anyone who actually thought there wasn't going to be a significant drop off due to his injury wasn't being honest.

Heh? Look up some of the August threads on here. It seemed to be the consensus was that Cutler was maybe even half a grade better than T-Hill. Not saying I agreed with it or not but that was definitely the average I was getting from those talking on here. Maybe you were in the Bahamas or doing some form of Buddhist spirit walk or something and didn't catch that. But that's what I took from those on here that seem to have a higher level of football IQ than I.

I'm not sure I understand what you're so upset with still. Do you think he's not aware of the issues you've listed? He's aware. He's mentioned it. Hell, just last week after the NY game he said the offense is garbage, for the last two years, and he's tired of it. So clearly they're trying to fix it.

I'm just saying, the initial thing you're getting bent out of shape about was him, essentially defending his guys for being criticized incorrectly by people who have no idea what they're talking about. Likely based on examples we discussed above. It's just the way it is. A reporter, a fan, etc, etc. we just don't know enough to pass off our opinions as fact. The only ones who know, are those who know the responsibilities on the playcall. That's all he was doing here, was defending his players. Believe it or not, that's part of the coaches job.

It's not like he stood there and say what do you idiots mean? Our offense is fine. We got shut out, but we weren't trying to score in London. Naw. we thought we could win with zero points. I mean, he's clearly acknowledged there's problems and that he's not happy about it, he's said they're going to work on fixing it. It hasn't happened yet, obviously. However that being said he's still going to defend his players from the idiot reporters passing off their incorrect opinions and interpretations as fact. That's part of his job. Keep in mind though, just because he may defend a guy in a press conference like that, doesn't mean they aren't on his ass behind closed doors in team meetings. He's just not going to single a guy out and throw them under the bus to the media.

Absolutely, you, I, and every other fan has the right to be upset about the performance of the offense. They've flat out stunk. I'm just not sure why you're upset about the coach making a comment that he knows what guys are supposed to be doing, and whether it's right or not. That's just... factual. He does, and he's one of the few that does because he's the coach. That's just... common sense IMO. I just think you're taking his comments way to personally because... he's right. Sure as fans we can say last year that Dallas Thomas and Billy Turner sucked and were killing the OL. Sure they still rolled with them for a few weeks. Why? Well, who knows. What we do know regarding that though is that they were the starters, the won the jobs in camp apparently, and Gase and his staff said when they got here, clean slate for everyone. Come in, do it our way, have success you'll be fine. If not, you're gone. So, I see that again as him simply doing what he said. That's how coaches win over players and locker rooms. So, yes, if he's going to stand there and be pissed at people who don't know what they're looking at, but acting as if they do so he can defend his players, and keep the trust of his locker room, you're damn right he should be doing that. He's very rarely called individuals out in his PC's. Most coaches won't. That doesn't mean they're turning a blind eye to it though behind closed doors. There's just nothing to gain from doing it in public.

^ Concision, baby. Concision.

I saw several holes in the B gap on the right side in all three weeks, but Ajayi was reaching the gap as the holes were forming. It was never a massive crease to burst through.....every time it was one of those, "Scrunch up, slide through and then explode" type of holes. They were there fairly consistently though and he had two very long runs last season through identical holes. He's just choosing not to go there this season...possibly due to a linebacker at the 2nd level or seeing daylight outside. I didn't study it in that much detail because...well, it doesn't matter what we see. But the holes are there to run through.

I'm not making excuses for Cutler either- I just meant that he looks poised and confident moving through the pocket. He did appear a little more jumpy this past week after taking a few hits and I'm guessing that's where the missed throws came in at. We definitely had two TDs last week if he was accurate.

So to be fair, Ricky is right about a lot of people on this site believing that Jay was going to be as good or better. I have a feeling that Resnor was thinking similar to me. I didn't think Jay was anywhere near an upgrade to Ryan, however, I was also not going to badmouth the latest guy to put on the Dolphins uniform. I was going to wait and see.

One of my points was that if the hype hadn't have been there for Jay, would you still be feeling like Gase needed to be fired? Without the insane pro Jay spin, I think people would have expected a rough start to this season, and I think that's exactly what we have gotten.

"Phins_to_Win wrote:

Anyone who suggests this is delusional- you don't fire a coach after losing two football games on an impossible road trip. Belichek lost the same amount of games in that stretch as well, at home nonetheless, should he be fired too? Because we faced 10x the adversity that he did over the past month. Or maybe the answer is benching Brady and blaming it all on him. But wait- Brady got a full pre-season to practice.....Cutler got less than a week. So Brady definitely needs to be fired, he must be the worst QB in all of football.

As fans, we want instant gratification. We expect our team to be perfect at all times. And some tend to ignore all the facts and grossly overreact when the team struggles. Our team was tired, jet lagged, and got the least practice time in the NFL with a new QB. The truth is that we had very little probability of winning the past two weeks.

And if we're bring honest here, it will probably carry over to the Titans game this Sunday. A win will take a massive turnaround despite another super-short practice week....so we should be ecstatic if we manage win. Make no mistake though, we will probably lose because it's just too much of an advantage to give up in the NFL. The Titans get 5 full days of practice...we get 2. That's colossal. There will be those who ignore all the factors though and expect us to win 55-0, and then they'll be right back here screaming for people to be fired again.

Just think about it. Over the past three weeks, 28 NFL teams have had 15 full practice days (minus us & the three other teams who played in London). Those other London teams had 12 full practices...we've had 6. That's it- 6 in a full month! It's no secret why our offense sucks right now.

Until Miami invests in a qb, it will be the same , dull franchise. Look at the Rams and Texans. Their issues are masked because they have a qb. Hell ,look at the Pats. The worst defense in the league almost but they have the qb. Miami has way too many holes to have a below average qb play for us.
