Anything short of a wildcard playoff next season and Gase is probably history.
Doubt it. Sparano survived 2010 and Philbin survived 2014. Granted, Ross’ mistake in keeping them led to lost seasons in 2011 and 2015, but lost seasons are par for the course for this team.Anything short of a wildcard playoff next season and Gase is probably history.
Just asking, If they go 8-8 next season, would you fire him? I know a lot more would go into the equation besides the record alone, but I am curiousDoubt it.

This team is headed for 7-9/8-8 next year at best and Gase will not be fired.
No, I wouldn’t. But only because he at least has an excuse for why this season was garbage. Sparano and Philbin lacked any excuses for their failures.Just asking, If they go 8-8 next season, would you fire him? I know a lot more would go into the equation besides the record alone, but I am curious

I do not buy those excuses esp when Minnesota went to playoffs losing their starting QB and RB.
They spent 10 million on a replacement at QB and had a backup that they rode to playoffs the previous year
Anomaly, not a trend...
Also, Gase did better than the average with teams starting a backup QB.
I wasn't happy with the performance of the defense, but this might be one of those areas where improvement won't be apparent until training camp. I think much of the fault on defense can be blamed on the players Burke was given. The addition of a couple of linebackers and a FS could lead to rapid improvement next season.
They didn't run it much last year...one of the reason the run defense improved.They can start with getting rid of the wide 9 garbage and then find a better Coordinator.
