    I mean how does he miss a 51 yarder with a stiff cross-breeze??? Must be a bum. Cut him.


    Seriously, this is what the cut Tannehill crowd sounds like. Guess what? Bad games happen. Ask any QB. Brady and Manning have both had worse games than Tannehill had yesterday. It happens, get over it.

    Go beat the Pats and everybody will start dreaming of superbowls again. :up:

    No. Tannehill has 22 games under his belt as a starter, and has stalled. Not getting better, and better is needed to win it all. He is on a short leash.

    That "crowd" is all of 3 people maybe... once you've identified them, you'll ignore their posts or laugh at them like most of the rest of us do.

    Welcome to the board.

    Bad offensive line, bad offensive coordinator, REALLY bad GM. It's not Tannyhill. He is in jeopardy of becoming the next David Carr. BLOW IT UP!!

    This team is in a KC-esk turn around in a season if the right leadership is acquired and sign a few key positional lineman... like 3 of them haha WE've got quite a few playmakers on both side of the ball

    Too Good for Dez has 789 posts under his belt as an internet forum dip****, and has stalled. Not getting better, and better is needed to avoid the loss of brain cells. He is on a short leash.

    The number of trolls this season is really annoying. I don't know how they manage to stay unbanned. They add 0 substance to threads.

    Tannehill, Gibson, Hartline, and Clay are literally the only bright spots on offense.

    Pouncey? Incognito? Can't argue against oline and then not give credit where credit is due

    Pouncey deserves some recognition but come on. At times it feels like we have a wall of air in front of our QB and when he is either sacked or is being chased frantically around what appears to be half a pocket...it's on the whole o-line. Incognitio and Pouncey too.

    We've gone from "I just want improvement" to "I want consistent 100 rating games". I find myself disappointed but that's because the first three games had me excited. His numbers are close to what we reasonably expected at the beginning of the season and I was more interested in year 3. Matt Ryan regressed notably in his second season but has turned into a good player. Tannehill has improved so far. I'll gladly take Matt Ryan 2.0 and a good offensive line.

    Tannehill honestly has 2 picks so far that have had us thinking WTF (both in this Buffalo game). The others were being overly aggressive, contested picks, or tipped. To be honest it's amazing he has played as well as he has behind this group of matadors he has to call an offensive line.

    If the rest of the OL did their jobs as well as Incognito and Pouncey do theirs, the OL would be a non topic.

    Fire them all and bring back the 72 team. Things will be on the upswing then.

    Wouldn't say he's on a short leash, thats a little overboard right there. Tannehill frustrates me no doubt and I am a fan of Pat Devlin but that doesn't mean that Tannehill is a bust or that he can't get the job done. I honestly didn't watch the game Sunday, I only saw the stats. So I really can't say how I feel. I mean most of you are saying that he played like crap to start the game but came back strong later on and responded well. Tyson Clabo didn't do him any justice either.
    I'm rooting for Tannehill all the way, but i'm not opposed to trying Pat Devlin at some point if he can't get the fumbles and INTs under control. Thats all i'm saying...If thats trolling than so be it.

    The way you should look at it is that Tannehill was a project when we drafted him. Not a project in the sense that he doesn't have potential, but a project as in he should of sat atleast a year or two. I'm fine with how he's played even games like the saints and last game. I expect him to make mistakes but add in the crappy playcalling, horrible offensive line play (bills game was much improved minus Clabo, hopefully Mckinnie can play left decently and Martin can lay on the ground and jerry,pouncey and incognito play as well the rest of the season),lack of run game,drops and you have a recipe for disaster. This is his second year and what should be his first and so far this year, we have not won games unless he's led us to victory. At this point in his career we should be able to win games with him managing the game rather than putting it on his shoulders. Played great the first 3 games, had a bad game against the saints and managed the ravens and to some degree the bills game( had mistakes yes but recovered and brought us back). Point is no one else is stepping up,whether its the oline,runningbacks breaking a tackle and taking it to the house or wr doing the same. Im not ok with having a qb who just manages games as i think Tannehill can be more then that, but even the best have a bad game to where they are just managing and yet their teams still win.
