    Since 2004 there have been 80 games in which one QB had a QB rating of at least 146 (what Manning had in the 4th quarter against Miami). Those QBs' teams have won 77 (96%) of those games. In the last 100 games in the NFL in which one QB had a QB rating between 82 and 85 (where Tannehill was in the 4th quarter against Denver), those QBs' teams have won 44 (44%) of those games.

    QB rating often has only about 50% to do with the QB. Which is what makes it an odd misleading stat.

    Right... and as a rookie HC for a Browns team he was rebuilding from scratch, Belichick made some questionable decisions at times and was called out for it - just like Philbin is being questioned and called out now. Main difference now being that Philbin has a very talented team this season that is underachieving on defense and special teams. Stop acting like these guys are something special until they prove something. Philbin can start that by going 4-1 or 5-0 and getting us into the playoffs this season.

    Joe Philbin rebuilt from scratch, and has a better record.

    Now that is a sample. You compared two QB's and their performance in the 4th quarter. Now you are changing your argument. Not complicated.

    I agree with you here, and I attribute some of it to not having enough situational awareness to include scrambling and running for first downs on his own, its a non existent part of his game at this point, and I hope he understands it.

    The point is that Manning's level of QB play in the 4th quarter was much more likely to prevail over Tannehill's. I knew the history of data behind that statement when I made it originally. When you mentioned something about sample size, I simply provided the lager sample data as a courtesy to you and others.

    Philip Rivers has always been someone I've rooted for. Such a competitor. Yeah, he might talk $h!t during games, but man, that guy just wants to win.

    Extend Philbin? Why?

    I think this team is doing every despite it's head coach and defensive coordinator. I'd fire them both unless they made it impossible to fire them. 10-6/11-5? They stay. Anything less than 10 wins and I'd **** can the both of them.

    I agree. I think if he can learn to climb in the pocket and know when to takeoff he'd be very dangerous. I know Tannehill has said that he likes working with Zach Taylor, but I can't help but imagine what a veteran QB coach could do for him and his game.

    Joe beat Belichick this year, and by a better margin.


    Did you see your boy Harbaugh score 3 pts on Thanksgiving at home?

    Nice post.

    Tannehill did some things in the pocket in the 2nd half of the Green Bay game that I hadn't seen him do before. I agree that a vet coach could help him a lot, but I wonder if "as the game slows down" (quotes because it's such a cliche) he starts to play more calmly and steps up, sidesteps, etc. because getting the ball downfield is a fun game that he's really good at rather than some life-and-death struggle, as it was early on.

    I was referring to philbins ***** call vs greenbay on 3-9 to run the ball instead and give the ball back to rodgers.
    You are smart enough to know the pats right now are light years better than the pats from week 1.Going into today they were averaging 39 pts a game in the last 8 weeks.
    As for harbaugh please he had his team in superbowl and what 2 nfc championships games .We are scratching for first wildcard apperance.

    One dropped pass and one late flag after a lot of begging are the two things that saved today's game from being comfortably in double digits.

    In order to say that Philbin should be extended, it's not necessary to compare him side-by-side with a hall of famer like Belichick. The comparison doesn't do Joe any favors, IMO.

    That's right, it does not cause Joe is better in his first three seasons than Belichick.

    As for Harbaugh, he's been allowed to ride Baalke's coattail for far too long. He was never tasked with rebuilding a franchise like Belichick and Joe, Harbaugh is not in the same stratosphere. I hope he goes to the Raiders and they give him full control, let's see what he can do with the Raiders as the man.

    The pass offense is among the worst in the league in efficiency, and that's going to make it hard for a team to be any better than mediocre, regardless of what it has going on elsewhere.

    That's right, you are witnessing top defensive play that we've seen around here, because of Joe Philbin. You have that QB, because of Joe Philbin. He built it. So be humble and appreciate.

    Seriously, was it here or Finheaven that used to have the poster of the month/year awards? I want to have those just to vote for TooGoodForDez.

    I want to know what the story is, who inspired it, who is running it. I want to buy that person a beer, because he hits all the right notes.

    These are all of our "close out" opportunities under Philbin/Tannehill like the one Rodgers converted on today. We only went conservative to run clock on one of the nine, the Green Bay game. But you are correct, clearly the problem must be Philbin...


    2012
    week 4 Cardinals 7 point lead with 3 minutes left. sack/fumble/TURNOVER
    week 5 Bengals 4 point lead with 2 minutes left. PUNT
    week 6 Rams 3 point lead with 2 minutes left. PUNT
    2013
    Week 2 Colts 4 point lead with 4 minutes left. PUNT
    Week 6 Bills 1 point lead with 3 minutes left. SACK/TURNOVER
    Week 11 Chargers 4 point lead with 2 minutes left. PUNT
    Week 12 Panthers 3 point lead with 4 minutes left PUNT
    2014
    Week 6 Green Bay 4 point lead with 2 minutes left. PUNT
    Week 9 Detroit 3 point lead with 3 minutes left PUNT

    I've seen Russell Wilson, Alex Smith, Drew Stanton and now Aaron Rodgers all complete passes to close out the game this season. ****ing ridiculous to say Joe Philbin is conservative because he didn't try a pass on third down that one time, after watching Tannehill doing his typical **** clutch play on the previous 3 pass attempts on that drive too. I mean, Green bay was blitzing every down and we seemed completely oblivious it, and we seemed oblivious to the situation, no urgency. YOU HAVE TO AMP IT UP A LITTLE WHEN THE GAME IS AT HAND!!

    And give Philbin Rodgers and I guarantee he never runs it on third and nine. Never.

    Forget the last two years because tannehill is playing at a much higher level this year but the coach is a scared rabbit.Go to the lions game who have the number #1 rushing defence and what does he do runs the ball on first and second down.How about a quick slant or rolling him out.Lets play right into the lions strength.As for greenbay both starting corners on the sideline and you run on 3-9?***** move!!Don't get me started on the timeouts.

    You know the goal is to run the clock out right? We saw what happened on pass attempts in both games -- incomplete passes. Which, last I checked, do not take much time off the clock.

    Its much more likely our team, with Ryan Tannehill under center, will pick up the first down AND take time off the clock by running it every down. In fact, our one and only offensive closeout under Philbin came against the Colts when we did run it all 3 downs, and we got the first and got to kneel down.

    Ironically, a run play is more likely to get the yardage for a first down on 3rd and long than a pass play. The erroneous thinking here is that pass plays are more likely to be successful, whereas they really are not, while they run the risk of course of taking no time off the clock in a situation in which you want the clock moving. Of course anyone who watches the game on a regular basis like the folks here surely notice that there are lots of pass plays (about 40 to 50%) that are not successful. Simply calling a pass play in itself doesn't guarantee a successful result. Because football is an aggressive sport, and many fans fashion themselves as similarly aggressive, I think they simply want the head coach of their favorite team to act "tough," without regard for any of the real data surrounding the issue. I'd rather have my coach consider the data and be smart, rather than tough.
