Make it simple? That's not how you develop a franchise QB. That's how you stop his progress. You want to simplify the first few games to give the QB a chance for the game to slow down but then you to add stuff. You want your franchise QB to have the ability to make chances and act as his own coordinator on the field.In the offseason, Gase threw what some considered shade at Tannehill when he said something along the lines of, "he has NO LIMITS" with Darnold at QB. Then the first thing the announcers say last night is, "Darnold really likes how Gase has simplified things so he only has to think about one thing at a time." Gase is such a tool bag it's not even funny.
Darnold is in his second year. He should be able to comprehend a full playbook. The problem with simplifying in the second year you leave the QB with no other option and if that one thing does not work you and your young QB are screwed. You destroy his confidence which can have a lasting effect.
I said before the season Gase being with the Jets is the best thing what could have hapd with the Dolphins this offseson. It will guarantee that Darnold will regress.
