It’s finally over.
The NY Jets have officially fired head coach Adam Gase after one of the worst seasons in team history.
The Jets only won 2 games in 2020 — after starting off the season 0-13 — finishing up with a pathetic 2-14 record.
The Gase-era — which started with a bizarre press conference in 2019 — ended with a sad 9-23 record. Not great.
“This evening, I informed Adam Gase he will no longer serve as the Head Coach of the Jets,” NY Jets CEO Christopher Johnson said in a statement Sunday night.
Johnson praised Gase and his family but ultimately said moving on is the right thing to do. No kidding!
“While my sincere intentions are to have stability in our organization — especially in our leadership positions — it is clear the best decision for the Jets is to move in a different direction.”
Johnson added, “To our fans, it is obvious we have not been good enough. We are committed to building a strong organization, on and off the field, and will continue to provide the necessary resources to field a team that you can be proud of.”
The 2020 campaign was the 2nd worst season on NY Jets history — following an infamously terrible 1-15 season back in 1996.
Gase was just bad all the way around — he was hailed as a QB whisperer who could help out Sam Darnold … but Darnold looked terrible this season and the Jets finished the year with the 32nd ranked offense in the league.
The Jets couldn’t even lose effectively this year — their 2 wins put them as the 2nd first team in the league, leaving them with the #2 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
