Can't wait until another coach is fired hey.Gase was exposed major this season, and him putting all his eggs in the Ryan Tannehill basket (lol) will be his coaching funeral. Good luck.

If Cutler was our QB last year there's no way we make the playoffs. We barely squeaked by in some of those games as it was, and with even slightly worse QB play we would have lost a few more.I see the what the OP is saying. Gase can't depend on one single position to win games. Jax made the playoffs with a great defense, good o-line and punishing rb. Bortles only job was to limit mistakes.
All areas need to be fixed, and if Gase believes that the whole season was wrecked only because of Tannehill, then we are in big trouble. I think Ryan can read defenses well, make adjustments, run on occasion and make every throw. But can you honestly say if Cutler was plugged in to the 2016 we would be that much better or worse? I don't know.
one year from now the house will be cleaned.
I completely agree. This defense hasn't worked for two years. The communication breakdowns and inability to cover TE's isn't going to end just because we draft or acquire 1-2 new starters. Also, don't forget Malauga who supposedly was partying all night long before he got busted. Can you imagine a professional athlete abusing his body this way and expecting to perform at 100%? Why was Gase OK with this?Gase is a dead man walking and he knows he has next year to save himself. IMHO this OC hire was a complete joke and consistent with Gase’s penchant for hiring yesmen and micromanagement, which will be his undoing. If Gase really wanted to show Ross he was serious about putting this team on a new glide path he would have given up playcalling, chunked his DC, OC and oline coach and replaced them with serious candidates. He didn’t. Most of you are correct, the issues on this team go way beyond RT. Lack of discipline, massive penalties, players going AWOL and locker room drama, a coach doing lines and hookers, consistently getting behind in games 2 tds, and the Jay Cutler fiasco are ALL on Gase. RT isn’t the panacea.
I listened to the WHOLE press conference and Gase did not say anything about the team being better with Tannehill. Not sure where you got that idea from.
I agree, he has quite a bit of work in front of him. Hopefully the team could make some positive strides. Lord knows I'm hoping for it, the second Patriots game had me so excited, like players were finally getting it. But then three games we had regression back to the simple mistakes.A
Ryan doesn’t change being the 2nd highest penalized team. Ryan doesn’t change having the 3rd worst defense in pts allowed. Ryan doesn’t change having an awful oline. I’m also confused how a coach who thinks he was handcuffed by his qb play ran the ball the lowest % in the nfl. The point is I hope he is honest, and shows humility and makes more dramatic changes than Ryan comming back.
I agree. The players worth 4 and 5 wins to their teams are perennial mvp candidates. RT is not an mvp candidate thus i see the team not being significantly better with him. There are alot of problems he couldn't cover up
As most know Gase had his exit press conference for the year, and blamed this year on not having Ryan. This pissed me off. I know Ryan is better than Jay, and this team would have been marginally better if Ryan played this season, but the results wouldn’t be that dramatic. In 2016 Ryan played in 13 games has 19 tds 12 ints 67% completion rate 2995 pass yards and was sacked 29 times. Jay was awful this year and played in 13 games(I’m not counting the 3plays in the season finale) had 19 TDs 14 ints 62% comp rate 2666 passing yardsand sacked 20 times. These stats are way to similar to think Ryan changes the fortunes of this team.

The Rams game? He was horrible for 55 minutes, and played good for 5. The only thing he overcame in that game was him self. Our defense and Parker was the MVP.
