Gase: We Got Drummed

There is a delicate balance in the relationship between HC and GM. Long term successful teams have a group that works well together. We saw the opposite of this with Ireland and Philbin. Tannenbaum set the structure up to give himself a fall guy it Grier but everyone should know who is calling the shots on personnel.

Adam Gase has final say on the 53 man roster. In the first game the starters that played did not look good and the backups played better. This week they all looked terrible. Will he ever make that call that disagrees with Tannenbaum? Get rid of a guy MT likes?

The good part of the Earl Mitchell injury is that we have been able to get a look at the guys behind him on the depth chart. The bad part is that we've gotten a look at the guys behind him on the depth chart.

Jordan Phillips is Mikey T's guy. Hew made the call over Hickey to grab this guy. How long will he get protected? Earl Mitchell has been able to sit on the sidelines and not screw up and look bad. It's apparent that he wouldn't have done much better if he had played but he probably would be no worse. Now we have a full crew of draft picks who are "Mike's guys". Outside of Tunsil and a return guy, the draft class has shown very little.

It's a tough call for Gase to make when there are no options on the roster. At what point does he go to Mike and say??? look...We need somebody better at DT. Make a trade....do whatever. These guys are not good enough. Would he ever make the call to make a big cut on someone who Mike likes? Woul dthat be the beginning of the end like it was for Ireland and JP?
