Adam Gase Now the Favorite to be the Next Head Coach Fired
The New York Jets are favorites for something, it just isn’t a good thing.
Adam Gase is now the clear-cut favorite to be the next head coach fired, this according to @Bovada_LV. With Bill O’Brien fired by the Houston Texans two weeks ago and Dan Quinn a week ago, Gase is now the morning line favorite to be the next coach fired.
The 0-6 Jets are coming off a devastating 24-0 loss at the Miami Dolphins this past Sunday. They are the only winless team in the NFL.

The speculation over Gase comes after what was almost universally praised a season ago as a tremendous first season with the Jets. Despite a 1-7 start to the year, the team finished 7-9 and with a sense of momentum heading into this offseason.
His solid debut season in New York came despite a roster rebuild and a team that led the NFL in games lost due to injury.
Now after an offseason spent rebuilding parts of the team, in particular overhauling a weak offensive line, the Jets are now worse than a season ago.
The Jets are now 7-15 under Gase. They are currently losing by an average margin of 18.3 points per game, most in the NFL.
They are No. 30 in total offense and No. 29 in total defense. Not ideal.
