Adam Schefter, Ian Rapoport and Jeff Darlington announced that the Jets will hire Adam Gase as their new head coach.
Gase is considered one of the top offensive minds in football.
After the Dolphins beat the Jets 20-12 at MetLife Stadium in September, Miami receiver Albert Wilson described Gase as “an offensive genius.”
Only time will tell how this turns out, but I have no problem with the Jets rolling the dice on a top-shelf offensive mind who isn’t afraid to bench people who underperform. And believe you me, this dude will bench people.
My gut tells me Gase, who’s extremely bright, is one of those guys who will do better his second time around as a head coach, like Bill Belichick.
