Popular Post BudsOilers Posted November 5, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 I will say something here about Adam Gase. WTF has he ever done? His big success was with Peyton in Denver. DecepticonShawn, OILERMAN, big2033, and 3 others 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 He’s better than Mariota but Ryan Tannihill isn’t going to take you anywhere in the long term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OILERMAN Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 Tannehill is an NFL starting QB, Mariota isn't. How good can RT be? Probably best case is a solid starter/game manager who can win with a supporting cast that helps him. Thrill, and smokeater 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say Dalton is more boom or bust, while Tannehill is relatively solid. Keep the opponent's score at 25 or less, let him manage things, and he'll win those games as often as anyone and play really well. We've seen it first-hand, winning two games under such circumstances and him having a 110 QB rating, and losing the one where the defense struggled (though the players around him screwed the offense over). Ultimately, you want a QB who can overcome even a bad defense On a decent basis. I'm not saying that he can't put up great numbers under the right circumstances, but we haven't seen it and that's ultimately what Miami needed. But a QB who doesn't lose you games and wins when the defense gives him a chance is an asset. Edited November 6, 2019 by abc2330 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post h4t Posted November 6, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 We are not going to find a better QB on the market (free agent or trade) than Tannehill. We'd be crazy not to sign him. We've already paid for him--4th round pick. If we take off our Mariota rose colored glasses we could all see this. I listened to Beddingfield evaluate Tannehill on 104.5 today, and as usual he gave a very biased opinion through his rose colored Mariota and opaque anti-JRob glasses. He criticized his interceptions and ability to manipulate the pocket. I have seen just the opposite. His accuracy negates a lot of interceptions and I've been pleasantly surprised at how few interceptions he has had under the circumstances. I think his interception in the Denver game has to be thrown out due to the desperation of the situation and of course the interception off AJ Brown's hand shouldn't count. Despite all this he has a QB rating of about 100 which is excellent. As far as his movement in the pocket, I find his ability to move and buy time to be outstanding. Yes he takes an occasional sack which some would say should be avoided by throwing the ball away, but I would rather he keep trying to complete a pass. At least he doesn't curl up into a cocoon like Mariota did at the first sign of any pressure. I agree with drafting a QB, but good luck to any rookie playing better than RT.

CreepingDeath Posted November 6, 2019 Report Share Posted November 6, 2019 I’m not interested in excuses for Tannehill. He has the rest of this season to produce and then the FO decides. With his past, his present is just more of the same. No need to build him up. Thrill, and titanruss 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
