With Miami ranking 29th in the league in third-down conversions this season (33.6 percent) after ranking 25th and 32nd in Gase’s first two seasons, here are a few points to consider about the way Gase operates on third downs, from research from myself and contributor Anthony Frascone of 3oh5sports.com:

That tells me that Gase is a moron and that Manning probably ignored him most of the time.

This one blew me away:
Frascone’s research shows that Sunday marked the first time since at least 1994 when an NFL team handed off on 3rd and 10 from inside its 10 yard line in a tie game with less than four minutes left.

This one's a close second as it shows that Gase has absolutely zero faith in Tannehill despite what he publicly states:
Gase ran the ball on 3rd and 10-plus more in one game with Tannehill (three times against the Colts) than he did in two years calling plays for Peyton Manning. He did it only twice with Manning, and one of those was a run-out-the-clock situation late in a 2013 game. (The other was in the second quarter of a 2014 game against Seattle.)

And Gase is labeled as an offensive genius and QB guru? He sure pulled the wool over Ross's eyes.

But but but lets give him 3 more years and wait for that season when we have no injuries at all

25th points per game
28th yards per game
30th 1st downs per game
29th 3rd down conversion %
30th time of posession
31st red zone scoring

guru.

There are NO excuses to defend Gase and the Front Office. If Gase says his playcalling is due to poor o-line play, they are responsible for building that o-line (starters AND back-ups). If Gase says his playcalling is due to trying to cover poor QB play, they are responsible for selecting the QBs on the roster.

I truly believe that Gase's offensive philosophy is to call the play with the least chance of succeeding, thinking that he's sure to confuse the opponent.

The problem is on 2nd down too. 2nd and twenty he isn’t even trying to get the first down.

Gase is not ready to be an NFL coach, it's as simple as that and plain as day. He's drowning in his own hubris and patronizing delusions of grandeur.

Adam Gase has the worst situational awareness and feel for a football game that I've ever seen from a head coach. It's like he keeps a sheet for Tic-Tac-Toe during the game, and plays against himself until he finds a winning play. It's utter insanity.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. AN ENTIRE NEW LEVEL OF INCOMPETENCE HAS BEEN ACHIEVED BY OUR GURU. HE’S SMARTER THAN EVERYONE- ALL THOSE PLAYCALLERS SINCE 1994 WERE IDIOTS!!! GASE KNOWS BEST!!!

All this while he’s concentrating so hard and not interacting with the players on the sideline at all lookin like he’s busy doing a crossword puzzle #guru

LMAO! That’s exactly what it looks like. Heaven forbid the HC pay attention to 2 of the 3 phases of our football team. What a douchenozzle. Can you imagine Belichick or Shula ever taking their eye off of the field for even a PAT attempt?
