    He said he is outplaying RGIII and coming through in the clutch
    He noted how he is completing two thirds of his passes as well.

    He also said he should have given Tannehill more credit before.

    Its nothing ground breaking but its good to see some in the media who are paying attention.

    If we keep winning, we will get a lot more notice. That being said, I kind of like being in the shadows and surprising teams.

    On Tannehill, I think he was our best player yesterday. I am truly excited for the future of this team.

    Since I quit listening to Cowherd several years ago... I worry about this.. It might be called "The Kiss of Death" as much as it could be considered any compliment.

    Any of us who have been paying much attention have seen the slow, but steady increase in the capability of Tannehill.. Even with the number of sacks he has been getting the first three games, and the number of people who have been decrying his inability to "be aware of the pocket," he has improved. I would reply that there has to be a pocket to be aware of one - and sometimes it crashes and burns (or is that bums) precipitously! I did note him running a couple of times yesterday, as well are rolling away from a pocket collapsing almost as soon as the ball was snapped. And I see a number of people repeating here today what the commentator on yesterday's game seemed to choose as a mantra - but I haven't seen any information about how long Tannehill had to get rid of the ball.. Some of those "pockets" seemed to have more holes in them than a colander - and he had well under three seconds (don't take that to the bank, I was counting in my head) to get rid of the ball in far too many drop backs. Anyone got the stats on that???

    What I did see is a couple of great drives which dug a porous defense out of the wrath of a lot of fans. It seemed that the person we missed most on defense was Soliai - because they were running all of the defense in this game! I am beginning to think that Soliai and Odrick are the best combination in the interior defensive line, and wonder if that is not why Starks was shuffled off to backup/relief land.

    I agree, I think he was Miami's best player yesterday. On that final drive, instead of trying to force it to Mike Wallace and Brian Hartline, he moved Miami methodically down the field hitting the likes of Rishard Matthews, Brandon Gibson, Michael Egnew, Charles Clay, and Dion Sims. I think that speaks well to how cool he is under pressure. It reminded me of the Seattle game from last year. However, this time around, he nearly ate off all 4 minutes that were left on the clock.

    I think with the Saints next week, we might, or should, borrow a page from Atlanta's gameplan from yesterday. I don't know if you want to try and get into a track meet with that group, especially with all the injuries Miami is dealing with on the defensive side. If you can shorten the game on them (i.e. give them fewer possessions) and use the offense to keep their offense off the field, the better chance Miami will have to win the game. I hope Mike Sherman adjusts his play-calling a bit to dial in a few more runs; especially up the middle.

    Hartline mentioned in an interview yesterday that with the growing expectations the team understands it needs to play to those expectations. I think they are ready for the challenge, I think it has shown in the 2nd half of all the first 3 games!

    and to no one's shock. Heath Evans is not a believer.

    "It was definitely a good step forward, to say the least," Dolphins receiver Brian Hartline said. "Expectations will continue to rise. But high expectations bring out the best in you. So we'll welcome it."

    Heath Evans is mentally challenged. One too many concussions.

    Man, been saying this about Tanny since he was drafted...

    And YES we missed Soliai tremendously...For one of the few times, I think we were outcoached on D yesterday, not something that usually happens, but Coyle got too cute for our own good...

    I like what I see. What I'd like to see is our team coming out of the gates stronger. I love 2nd half adjustments but hate we have to rely on them.

    I want to kick someone's arse for 60 mins

    Did Heath Evans really make comments about Tannehill? I want to see them.

    Yeah, I wish we played the Jets already too.

    He literally said " I am not a believer in the Dolphins" No insight, no reason why.
    He then proceeded to suck Pete Caroll's ****, which must be a refreshing change of pace for him.

    Not too much of a change.....Carroll did coach the Patriots at one time.
