Jets coach Adam Gase said the team’s play-calling is being labeled a “collaborative effort” because he doesn’t want to give away too much information for a “competitive disadvantage.”
That would entail the Jets being competitive to begin with. New York has teetered between play-callers since Week 7, exceeding 25 points in back-to-back games with Joe Flacco under center and totaling a lowly 22 points in Sam Darnold’s three starts in that time. Averaging the league’s fewest yards per play (4.6), points per game (13.8), and lowest scoring margin (-15.5) on gamedays, anything Gase claims at this point is strictly headline material for comedic purposes. Maybe Trevor Lawrence and a new head coach will change the organization’s culture in 2021.
