Gase is ranked #10. Pretty good for a coach with 1 year of experience. GREAT knowing the potential upside of this team, with Gase as HC!

10. Adam Gase
Career Record: 10-6 (.625)
With The Dolphins Since: 2016
Last Year’s Ranking: – –

After years in Joe Philbin jail, the Dolphins suddenly have the NFL’s brightest coaching prospect. Adam Gase’s coordinating momentum continued unabated his first year as his own boss. Dealing with one of the league’s most unwieldy rosters, Gase stabilized Ryan Tannehill before losing him to injury. Traditionally, this would have been when Miami’s season went off the rails. Not with Gase. The rookie head coach managed and manipulated a 2-1 record out of journeyman Matt Moore, clinching the Dolphins’ first postseason appearance since 2008. Despite talent limitations on both sides of the ball, Gase displayed an innate ability to put his players in the best position to succeed. It wasn’t all about his “system.” Gase played to his team’s strengths, not his own rigid vision of what winning football is supposed to look like. It’s what he did with Peyton Manning in Denver, and Jay Cutler in Chicago. With Gase at the controls, the Dolphins might finally break New England’s one-party rule of the AFC East.

fair ranking after year 1

pretty damn good to be top 10 first year
 
Ranked just ahead of Payton, Garrett, and Dan Quinn. I'm a little bit surprised to see him ranked in the top 10 after one season, but happy to see people outside of the Dolphins organization/fans think so highly of him.
 
Great coaching job by Gase. The players play hard for him, which speaks volumes.

Matching up against Bellichick in the AFC East is the real question. No coach has been able to do that enough to knock New England out. It's a big task and I think one that will require Gase to be as creative and innovative on defense as he is on offense. In year one, he seemed to leave the defense in the hands of Joseph. Moving forward, I think that may need to change.

Miami is heading in the right direction and Gase is the primary reason.
 
Good stuff!

Does he deserve to be top 10? It's just an opinion, but...

1. Helped take a perennial 7-9 to 8-8 team into the playoffs.
2. Saw his team fall into a 1-3 hole in it's first four games, made some quick moves, coached up his team, and...Playoffs.
3. Ryan Tannehill has started to reach his potential with Gase.
4. For the 1st time since Shula, we have a HC that makes adjustments at halftime if they are needed.

---...And most importantly---

He is not satisfied...even when winning by 24 points in the 3rd (The sign of a winning HC).
 
He worked magic with a broken roster. Just imagine what he would do if we could give him a team stacked with talent....alas
 
Good assessment too about him just playing to players strength and putting them in position to succeed.
