    Whats the logic behind not letting him audible? It's stupid.

    Can he even call a hot route IF he actually recognizes the blitzer pre snap? These aren't groundbreaking things to ask of your QB.

    Because they do not trust him and he does not look improved. He is rediculously durable but is a bottom 5 QB this year so far.

    Not it sure I would go that far, but you can't argue his same ole weaknesses have been exploited early on.

    Keep drinking that Kool-aid Brandon. While the best QBs on the planet are the best QBs on the planet whether their line is talented or not. Marios pocket presence and quick release would of rendered this line to be unable to be terrible. Same way Tom Brady does every single year. He gets rid of the ball very quickly and maneuver to throwing pockets. Its what the best do, and its not what Tannehill even comes close to doing. Maybe you should turn on MNF and check out Russel Wilson and his fantastic OL lol

    Wow, major outlets are reporting this "rift" as well....so now we have to add douchebag to the list of things Ryan Tannehill.


    FML, can anything ever be good for this organization? We have dumped a load of $$$ on some pretty unproductive players.

    Dont worry bro. I guess most people forget that Dan Marino worked a pocket like a magician. People like to view things how they like to view it, I understand that at this point in my life. For god sakes, Marino is on the "Top Ten Mobile QBs" of all time on NFL network, but that had nothing to do with his pocket presence, it was because he was rushing for 1,000 yards a season -__-

    Actually I think stat wise, he is bottom 3. You could fact check me on that though. He sucks is what I am saying.

    Unlike these yahoos i dont don't pick and choose when to have stats tell my story....you know...the same few guys who want to break out some "stats" when it is beneficial to them?? Those guys.

    To be fair he has been more like bottom 10 IMO...

    Tannehill is a game manager, nothing more. We need to start running the ball if we want him to have HIGH success like Romo did last year, we should dial back on the passes and turn up the heat in the run game. No reason we should be throwing 44 times and running 6 anymore, Tannehill will never be a top tier guy and its time we realize this. Our OL is garbage and Tannehill isnt good enough ti make up for their play like other QBs do for their bad OLs, so what im saying is actually logically speaking

    Washington is a better team.

    Winning a game by putting up 13 points against an 0-3 team. What an offense they must have.

    Comparing RT to arguably the single BEST QB to ever touch a football is kind of nonsensical, don't you think? Marino is BY FAR the exception when it comes to pocket maneuverability...and he actually had spots in the pocket to move TO. Ask Andrew Luck, who experts call the 2nd coming and borderline elite already...most certainly a franchise guy. He's been a dumpster fire, compared to his previous seasons, behind his OL, and they're not as bad as Miami's.

    A few other teams with really bad pass-blocking OL come to mind...Redskins, Ravens, Lions and Bears...they're probably pretty close to, if not as bad as Miami's...how are those teams doing? Also with a bad line, those 1-2 Seachickens are limping through an ugly HOME WIN against the vaunted 0-3 Detroit lions, thanks to a lucky Megatron fumble...scoring LESS than Miami has scored the last 2 weeks, and 3 out of their 4 games. Wilson fumbled twice, is that his or his OL fault? Gotta be OL I guess, since he's such a wizard. But they have the luxury of scoring 13 and winning...Miami and their defense don't provide such comfort.

    Wilson's better at it than RT is, but you don't see QBs all over the league doing it routinely, better. RT could certainly use some improvement there, but he's not the worst at it. He evaded pressure several times against the Jets this past week.

    Was as just nice to watch a QB making plays when the pocket breaks down, that doesn't happen in Miami.

    lol You and other people really try hard to **** on Tannehill.

    You can't even talk about the negatives in Wilson's game without throwing RT's name in it.

    Merely pointing ting out how you referenced Wilson's sacks as being HIS fault...which is contradictory if you are a RT supporter. So which one is it?? Sacks are the fault of-------??

    And I don't need to **** on him, all a man has to do is watch the games and it's pretty obvious what we have. A solid QB who can play well under the right circumstances.

    lol I said he took 6 sacks. Sorry if that phrase which everyone else on the planet uses bothered you so much. Also curious that you focused on that part of the sentence and not the 2 fumbles or 13 total points. A mystery for certain.

    Sure you do. Otherwise why'd you bring his name in to it at all?

    Have to go with slick on this one. Wilson is overrated. Put Tannehill on that Seahawks team and he'll look better than Wilson.

    Doubtful. But as a Phins fan of a pathetic team right now, I guess we all kind of WISH that was the case. I mean, if i ran the Dolphins I would trade RT17 for RW3 but I would also know they would ask for more than just RT17 in return or else they would tell me to go kick rocks.

    Stop it, you lumped that in with the negative list you laid out for Wilson...now you are saying you just worded it wrong?? Lol, you remind me of my ex.

    Wilson has a bad OL, a nobody at RB, A WR core that would be envious of New England and seems to not be able to win over "stat guy" who by some odd twist of fate is nowhere to be found, ecspecially after those darling PFF rankings have ole Ryan as the 34th rated QB in the league....so predictable how some flip flop there beliefs when it serves there purpose.

    I have no idea what you are basing that on...Ryan would've "taken" 10-12 sacks tonight.

    But, fair enough.

    Well if you're talking about how great he did w escaping pressure and don't acknowledge the fact that he was still sacked (sound ok for you?) 6 times then that looks a little suspect to say the least. Was she in touch w reality as well?

    Again, you couldn't even talk about Wilson without throwing RT in. Pretty funny. And it's, "their."

    I have better things to do then respond to your next straw argument so enjoy your evening.

    You worry about grammar on a message board....so I doubt you have too much better to do.

    And yes, sorry for giving props to a QB who has less talent on offense than 80% of the league and an OL that has sucked his whole career. Obviously, it angered you enough to chime in and start this discussion.

    Look if you put Wilson on our team as of now he wouldn't have the success he is having. Seahawks defense is what makes people look the other way on Wilson's flaws. Wilson is good with the deep ball. I'll give him that but other than that, he is just average. Tannehill has a higher ceiling than Wilson. Tannehill would have won two super bowls with the Seahawks.
