“#Brian Flores’ Dolphins turnaround makes Jets, Adam Gase look bad<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n Remember when the Jets could count on at least one win over the Dolphins every year, sometimes even a season sweep?<\/p>\n

Those days seem like long ago. And those days certainly aren\u2019t these days.<\/p>\n

If you look at the direction the Jets have been headed in the past two seasons (read: rudderless and reeling) and the direction the Dolphins are currently taking (read: arrow pointing up), it doesn\u2019t look like the Jets can count on anything other than hanging on for dear life and hoping for a victory.<\/p>\n

When the Jets (0-5) play at Miami (2-3) on Sunday, the job Dolphins coach Brian Flores has done compared with the job Adam Gase has done with the Jets in the same period will be on display.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s not a favorable display for Gase.<\/p>\n

Flores, the Bill Belichick disciple from New England who took over in Miami after Gase was fired by the Dolphins and hired by the Jets, has coached circles around Gase.<\/p>\n

Both Flores and Gase got off to terrible starts last season \u2014 Gase\u2019s Jets going 1-7 with Sam Darnold catching mononucleosis and Flores\u2019 Dolphins starting 0-7.<\/p>\n

But the start Flores endured was historically horrific. Miami was beaten 59-10 by Baltimore in the opener, then 43-0 to the Patriots in Week 2, then 31-6 to Dallas and 30-10 to the Chargers. Four game<\/a>s into Flores\u2019 NFL head coaching career his team was outscored 163-26.<\/p>\n

Three more losses followed and the Dolphins were 0-7 before going 5-4 the rest of the way. Add to that their 2-3 start this season, and Flores is 7-7 since that forgettable beginning.<\/p>\n

A year ago, the Dolphins were ranked last in the NFL in points allowed, yielding 30.9 per game. They were 25th in the league in scoring at 19.1 points per game. Their pass defense gave up 39 touchdowns and produced just 13 interceptions.<\/p>\n

This season, the Dolphins are ranked 10th in points allowed (22.6 per game) 13th in points scored (27.2 per) and their pass defense is ranked sixth in the league.<\/p>\n

You know what those numbers represent? Progress.<\/p>\n
