Adam Gase Responds To Gregg Williams’ Criticism: “Everyone Needs To Shut Up & Play”

Tensions between New York Jets head coach Adam Gase and the team’s defensive coordinator Gregg Williams reached a new high, Sunday, when Gase responded to Williams’ criticism of the offense by saying that everyone “needs to shut up and play.”

“That’s not what we need,” Gase told CBS when discussing Williams’ comments. “No one is pointing fingers. We need to pull in the same direction. Everyone needs to shut up and play.”

The Jets’ defense is allowing over 32 points per game entering Week 6, and the team is 0-5 to start the season.

“It’s not a very good number — and a lot of it’s not all defensively,” Williams said when asked about the team’s poor defensive effort thus far, Friday. “It’s points on the board and we’ve got to do a good job of that, and how you do that is make them kick more field goals, got to do a better job in field-position-type things.”

Williams was asked to clarify his statement, to which he responded “you’d have to figure it out,” and ended the video call.

Earlier this week, the Jets released star running back Le’Veon Bell after being unable to get anything in return for a trade.

The Jets play the Dolphins, Sunday, who will enter the game 2-3.

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
