The line is better. Tannehill becomes exponentially worse when the line becomes bad, and he becomes exponentially better when the line becomes good. Assuming last year was more about the known flaws in his game than him actually becoming washed, I suspect we would have seen a QB that looked like he could peak inside the top 10 again. Putting Tannehill behind the worst offensive line in football last year GUARANTEED you would get the production similar to what you saw.

Not a shot at all on you Scine, but it is a little funny that the coach pretty much said they could have won that game with exactly how you are describing Willis playing....

Hill did not do the bare minimum required to avoid this situation. So the initial escalation is most likely warranted. I don't believe that the cop has any right or is entitled to respect, but he does have the authority that requires compliance. Hill did not have to be nice to the Cop, he isn't required to smile, or even be pleasant in any fashion, but he is required to perform the basics that all of us are expected to in the same situation. I do believe cops need to be taught to re-evaluate the situation as it progresses. The initial instigation might be ok, but now that he is out of the car is he still a potential threat? If not another attempt to de-escalate should be made. Too often we instead see an unchecked surge of adrenaline that is common in bar fights and face offs, and the officer begins to initiate unprovoked escalation themselves. If the officer took a step back and changed up his tone again after getting him out of the car this would probably have been a much smaller headline. I agree with the poster that said it wasn't a great look for anyone involved.

If Lewan stayed in it still feels like this line would be pretty weak. With Lewan in could they at least run their offense is the question. I suspect they could, but they would always be a dominant D-line away from being exposed. Lewan doesn't save that Eagles game.

I suspect Vrabel would be his own worst enemy. I hope they keep that power far away from him.

I have mixed feelings on this. I absolutely blame him for the current state of the team, but it feels like they skipped a step going straight to firing him. Maybe this is an attempt to prevent the over reach that comes from a GM clearly on the hot seat... still there are worse GMs out there. His O-line problem is damn near criminal, but what he has done at other positions has been phenomonal.
