In the latest New York Jets news Gase is angry. New York Jets head coach Adam Gase has a lot on his plate with his team being the only winless team in the league. Even though he is used to the criticism from the fans, he wasn’t too happy to be criticized by his staff, which is what defensive coordinator Gregg Williams did when speaking to reporters Friday.
Secondly, after the team was shutout by the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, Gase addressed the comments made by Williams on Friday.
“I wasn’t happy about it, but we talked about it,” Gase said. “Right now, our players are doing such a good job as far as trying to get things righted. It’s just that everything we say, it matters. He understood that we have to set the right example.”
Williams was prompted by a reporter who noted the Jets were allowing 32 points per game. The defensive coordinator replied, “It’s not a very good number — and a lot of it’s not all defensively.”
Furthermore, when asked to elaborate, Williams said, “You’d have to figure it out.”
Gase first tried to downplay the comments, saying, “He was trying to talk about complementary football, all three phases playing together.” However, it did prompt Gase to call a meeting with Williams to discuss it.

“I felt like we were good after we talked,” Gase said.
Therefore, Williams isn’t the only one upset with the way the team is playing.
“We can’t wait to the f—ing fourth quarter,” running back Frank Gore said. “We can’t f—ing wait to the fourth quarter to f—ing wait to start playing ball.”
Despite being upset with the team’s performance, Gore defended the embattled Gase, claiming the problems aren’t scheme-related.
“We haven’t done anything well this year at all,” Gase said. “Also, we just hurt ourselves so much. Last year, we trended in the right direction. However, we improved. … This year, we have to figure out a way to improve really quickly, from top to bottom, coaches, players, it doesn’t matter, everybody. We have to get things better.”
