Dolphins’ Adam Gase is “pissed” but should look in mirror first

Play calling
Nothing makes sense with Adam Gase’s play calling this year. Last year it was excused because he was a first time head coach but this year there is no excuses. Gase is predictable to say the least and every fan with even a small amount of football knowledge can call the play before the snap.
So can defenses.
Defenses are stacking the line of scrimmage and forcing Miami to beat them with Jay Cutler or last week with Matt Moore. They are taking away Jay Ajayi but here is the problem, Gase continues to run Ajayi the same way every time. With a stacked front why is Gase calling for gap 1 and gap 2 plays? Ajayi needs to get outside and if the guard/center gaps are not providing lanes then change the plays to beat the defensive stacks. Gase is not doing that.
This is a huge problem and it’s so redundant that defenses are playing Miami the way the Jets played the Dolphins. The Jets for crying out loud. Taking away Ajayi is showing the Dolphins true weaknesses. Miami can not run block and they can not pass block. But Gase isn’t changing the offense and that is a problem. Against the Jets in Miami, Gase changed his offense to protect Matt Moore by rolling the pocket away from the defensive front. Moore had time and they won the game. Against Baltimore, Gase never wavered from keeping Moore in the pocket.
