Jets will not fire Adam Gase following Week 4 loss and plan to retain him for rest of season, per report
The New York Jets will continue to keep Adam Gase as their head mentor, now and for the foreseeable long run. Per Connor Hughes of The Athletic, the Jets will not fireplace Gase following Thursday’s 37-28 reduction to the Denver Broncos, as previously rumored, and as a substitute approach to retain him for the relaxation of the period. Thursday’s consequence reportedly did not affect New York’s ideas with regards to Gase’s long run, as they planned to continue to keep him as head mentor no issue the consequence.
Gase will have a really hard time convincing the Jets he deserves to be retained for 2021 (and over and above) about the up coming many months. The Jets, now off to a -four commence, host the Arizona Cardinals in Week five adopted by a street game towards the Los Angeles Chargers in Week six. The subsequent 3 games are towards the Buffalo Charges (property), Kansas Metropolis Chiefs (street), and New England Patriots (property) — so the crew could potentially be staring at an -nine commence.
Gase is no stranger to bad starts in New York, as the Jets began 1-7 past period before winding up 7-nine thanks to winning six of 8 games to near the 12 months. Recognized for his offensive prowess and get the job done with quarterbacks, the Jets offense completed up coming to past in points scored and past in complete yards in 2019. The Jets offense is really worse in 2020, position past in points scored and complete yards heading into Thursday’s game.
New York was blown out in its initial 3 games, as every single game was practically made the decision by the third quarter. The Jets retaining Gase — inspite of the unpreparedness and absence of willpower (the 8 penalties per game typical is tied for 2nd-most in the NFL) — revolves all-around the growth of Sam Darnold. The Jets quarterback has just done 59.four% of his passes for 792 yards with 3 touchdowns to 4 interceptions (70.four passer rating) by means of 4 games. They are most likely hoping his existence will proceed to help Darnold’s growth.
Gase is just 30-38 in five seasons as a NFL head mentor and 7-thirteen with the Jets.
