New York Jets head coach Adam Gase caught tons of criticism for the offense, and rightfully so, in 2019. Although losing Sam Darnold to mononucleosis was a massive blow to the unit, Gase wasn’t able to keep the team afloat without its quarterback. Gase’s use of Le’Veon Bell all season, but particularly early on, was questionable at best.
But now, the head coach is taking accountability for his misuse of Bell.
“I was really trying to get him going, and at the same time, teams kind of knew what we were doing, and they were loading up the box and he was taking some shots,” Gase admitted during a Zoom call via Robby Sabo of Jets X Factor.
