![]() And that this team, with Cutler under center, is 4-2. You could make the case that the Dolphins started 1-4 last season before everything came together. So, yes, there is an argument for why he should play. And Cutler's one year with Gase shares a lot of similarities with what Tannehill and Gase accomplished in their first year together in 2016.ĭuring his three starts a season ago, Moore ranked sixth among all quarterbacks in passer rating when kept clean (111.9) and fourth when facing pressure (93.0). He threw for 3,659 yards with 21 touchdowns, 11 interceptions, a completion percentage of 64.4 and a passer rating of 92.3.Ĭutler set career bests in passer rating and career lows in interceptions, and his 244 passing yards per game was No. In 2015, Gase's first and only year in Chicago, Cutler finished 10th, just behind Kirk Cousins, Philip Rivers and Matthew Stafford. And from 2012-14, Cutler never finished higher than 16th in total QB value, according to Football Outsiders' metrics. In fact, what Gase did that season played a major part in him getting the Dolphins' head-coaching job ahead of the 2016 season.Īt one point during the 2014 season, a year before Gase arrived in Chicago, Cutler was benched for Jimmy Clausen. Gase and Cutler had a history, which included Cutler playing the best football of his career in 2015 when Gase was the offensive coordinator in Chicago. ![]() But Tannehill's 2017 season was over before it started when he underwent surgery in August, prompting coach Adam Gase to turn to Jay Cutler, who was already several months retired. ![]() The plan was for Ryan Tannehill to build on his 2016 season, when he set career bests in completion percentage (67.1) and passer rating (93.5), and was 8-5 in 13 starts before he was sidelined late in the year by a knee injury.
