Gase Shows Motivational Skills
Adam Gase is showing an ability to motivate.
Adam Gase is making an early impression with motivational skills.
Early on, Joe Philbin displayed with his struggles over chewing gum on the carpet that his tenure would be a rocky one at best. Early on, Adam Gase is showing quite the opposite.
Beyond the billion dollar franchises owned by billionaires, and the millionaire players playing for them, the root of this game is deeper than dollars and even deeper than X’s and O’s: it’s boys playing games with a deep competitive spirit – to win.
Yes, this game has a dark-side and it’s played for keeps with vaults of money hanging in the balance. But, if the motivation to play isn’t fueled by the simple love of competition, then eventually all other “inferior motivations” of that player will be exposed to their teams detriment.
In the “old days”, a coach was a taskmaster driving his team like a father does his children or, for the more cynical, like a rancher his cattle. Then unions, bargaining agreements, and million dollar contracts left those coaches in the dust. Tom Coughlin was the last of the “old school” to realize this. And much to his credit. he learned it well to the tune of two championships wins.
In a recent interview of Byron Maxwell, the Gase’s new school style became clearer. Maxwell spoke about going up against Parker and Gase’s “trash talking” banter – which was offensively biased. Even though he’d catch verbal heat if he was beat, there wasn’t a tinge of bitterness, but instead a wry smile composed of a mixture of entertainment and competitive spirit. The message of “get better” was clear, as was the challenge of offense verse defense, but the mode it was delivered was motivating as well, I dare say, humorous to Maxwell.
Adam Gase is showing that modern coaching is much more than a taskmaster.
Modern football is dealing with millionaires with large signing bonus’, and it doesn’t take the best sportsbook to bet the iron fist in the velvet glove is key to motivating these said millionaires.
Adam Gase is in the early portion of his rookie year, but he is displaying a keen insight into the “new style” of coaching. Success is no longer found in being a player’s father or overlord, and it never was it found by being their friend. Instead, in the modern structure, coaches are more and more becoming the older brother who is looked up to with a mixture of love and respect. It’s true that a relationship like this is one that could all too easily come crashing down in a revolt, if losses mount. But, at this early and happy juncture, Adam Gase is proving why the Dolphins were so high on acquiring him.
It’s still very early, and the bloom is still on because not a single game has yet to be played, but doesn’t the atmosphere feel refreshingly different this year? Go Fins!!!

I really like Gase’s demeanor. I also like hearing that he challenges the defense already, talking trash to them about his offense. I like hearing that the defense gives it back when opportunity presents itself. This builds chemistry, builds a sense of trust, builds competition. They will all feed off each other during games and could become a close group/locker room because of the atmosphere established. All of these variables were not present during the Philbin era.
As good of a man that Joe Philbin is/was, he couldn’t motivate anyone at any time for any reason. When the bullets started flying, Philbin was unsure about himself/staff, and the players are the first to sense it. The only negative I could possibly see from this kind of atmosphere is “if” the offense should sputter and have a lot of 3-and-outs (some more “ifs”). I believe that Gase has (and knows) the ability to attack defenses regardless of their personnel, he just understands what defenses are trying to do. Gase’s offenses have not been stopped on a regular basis for 4 years straight, why would any of that change now, especially with the offensive talent Miami has at their disposal. I know = big prove it year for Tanny, cause I feel the O-Line will be much improved, no excuses!!!
I agree. I think Gase is a nerd, but he is carrying a set. His eyes are never jumpy in conversations. He looks right at you and even zings some at the media. I personally find nothing distasteful yet in anything he has done. Still alot of time, but so far so good.
…wet blanket time
…I remember the arrival of the last five coaches …all supermen with SB rings waiting with baited breath
…the odds makers have us down against every team we play on this schedule …they live or die on those odds …and they are very short lived if wrong too often
…so I’m not counting on Gase being Shula ’72 …or Tannehill being Marino with a running game …I’ll be pleased if we don’t get blown out in the first 11 and win the last 5 going away …it takes time for a new staff to put all the pieces in place …and yea verily, Ross and Tannenbaum are still with us
…that said, I do think Gase could be our next Shula …and that Tannehill could be a slow burner who finally catches fire …probably not fast enough to salvage this season …but I’m a patient man and like most of what I see …putting aside enough to buy season tickets for ’17 …just in case
…but I am a die hard fin fan and if they go 2-0 out of the gate, I’ll likely climb on the bandwagon
Lemmus, I think expectations for this season simply needs to be competence. Look at Pete’s first couple of years in Seattle. We need to win most of what we should, be in most we lose and pull out a couple that we shouldn’t. From a talent standpoint Miami needs to find out who are the players who can contribute and be consistent T-Hill top of the list. They have “fixed” their cap to make it decent. They need to hit on 3-5 of the players drafted 2-3 being good and couple that contribute. If they do this and go 7-9 – 9-7 then we are on track and I’ll be happy. If Gase is simply good and not great that is enough to at least build on. If he is above average or less…then it’s back to the hole.
…did we get a new blogger?
…I mean, that was actually coherent …and edited!
LOL 🙂
Nice…yes we did. The old guy was a jerk, so we fired him. Nice to meet you!
