Why wait?
Eight games are all any of us needed to see. Midway through Adam Gase's first season as the New York Jets' head coach, it's already time for the organization to pull the plug on what is clearly a failed experiment.
Sunday's humiliating 26-18 loss to the Miami Dolphins should settle it. Now 1-7, the Jets were handily outplayed by one of the worst teams in NFL history, and that came after they were outscored 62-15 in back-to-back abysmal losses to the New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars.
First-year head coaches can typically afford to start 1-7.
