Dolphins coach Gase on next two games: “They are playing for their jobs”

[datruth55]

Highlights from Dolphins coach Adam Gase’s Monday news conference:

• Will Dolphins players be motivated for Miami’s final two games (at Kansas City, home to Buffalo) considering the playoffs are a long shot?
“I would hope they would be very motivated,” Gase said. “They are playing for their jobs.”

Does he weigh the last two games a good deal in offseason personnel evaluations? “Yeah, I think you do. See how guys play.”

• How hard is it to evaluate these players when they are good enough to beat the two Super Bowl finalists last season but also play very poorly at times?

Oh, well, he certainly called out Jay Cutler there.

"We had a shot on that third and long where we ran a slip screen. Wish Jay would have thrown the ball where he could have caught it on the run. We had it fairly blocked well."

You don't say, coach. You don't say.

Hopefully we finish strong.....and by 'finish strong', I mean lose these 2 games closely while getting rapport on our future current players in convincing fashion w/ no injuries....

If we can keep the Bills from the playoffs I'm all in on winning that last game. Draft will take care of itself...keep the drought intact!

He knows that’s a walk in

IMHO, he knows the starters who will be back. Let the BACKUPS prove what they have

Why are we "playing for jobs" when the playoffs are still a possibility? Does Gase think we are eliminated? I'm not sure I like that kind of thinking

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

They should've been playing for their damn jobs since week 1 for crying out loud!!!

 

[Mrmeeseeks]

Oh Gase calls his players out in public again. What a great leader of men. No personal responsibility, just "they didnt do what I said, so, that's why we lost."

 

[elite14eva]

He should be playing for his too

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

All I can say is, Gase better have us in the playoffs next season and we better not be one and done when we get there either. No playoffs in 2018 = Send Gase packing

 

[joenhre]

Cutler certainly isn't playing for his job. As he will be out of the league as soon as the season is over.

Probably. But Miami is in cap hell so the roster will see a guy like Cam Wake go. So, the odds of them improving outside of getting Tannehill are nil. The excuses will fly, Gase will still be here until he starts 0-6 in 2019 and gets fired.

Yawn. You are now officially boring us.
