The type of man to pay money to insult people online all day with impunity.
Nah, that’s your dementia setting in.
That also happened. I reported all of your offenses recently so stop pretending you’re not a troll.
I’m talking about Ajayi vs Drake
Like what’s up with this ****? Bwahaahaha? You called somebody a dolt the other day. How old are you?
I don’t mind debating. I do it all the time without being bothered.
Again, which proves my point that RBs tend to do far better when they’re rushing few times per game. I don’t know how you’re not getting this....
I’ve been repeating the same point over and over and over again. Drake is only doing well because he’s rushed 6,7,9 times per game. Then all of...
I said his YPC has already rebounded, and it has. 29 is closer to 65 than 65 is to 138, which proves my argument that Drake is only averaging more...
Obviously YPC matters but not when the guy rushes 6, 7 or 9 times in game... He just had a 23 carry game against a gassed defense whose offense...
Yeah, well Drake also got -3 on one attempt but I’m not cherry picking. If we look at the full resumé, it’s not even close. One guy has a higher...
What I’m saying is the guy gets a very low amount of rushing attempts. It’s easy to say, “See! He averaged 11 YPC,” when he ran 7 times.
Much worse? I mean if you’re okay with fewer attempts and lower rushing totals in exchange for higher YPC then yeah, it’s better. We never...
When I said a couple I meant literally two. When I said a few I meant three. When I said excellent I meant one. You’re just talking **** and being...
Ajayi had many more rushing attempts than any other RB and was the only threat defenses honed in on. His YPC has already rebounded.
Oh come on. When he was given an opportunity he had a Pro Bowl season. How much is Gase paying you?
I care about the rushing game in particular when it comes to running backs. Drake has had one excellent rushing game. A couple of good ones and a...
Ajayi has accomplished more. Drake has been inconsistent too. The guy has one excellent rushing game against a gassed team with zero offense and...
I wouldn’t. Plenty of great skill players were and are divas. What pisses me off is when players cost the team in penalties.
None of us know what really went on but if I’m a player and I’m sore and injured all the time, I don’t feel any better when the team still sucks...
I think Gase was sending a message. If you look at the playcalling, there’s a pattern there. I don’t even like the guy but I gotta respect that...
I don’t see why we’d keep Parker around and give Ajayi away for scraps. At least Ajayi has proven what he’s capable of.
It’d be a shame if I put a word in with some babalaos in Hialeah about Alabama pulling off the win against Clemson...
I need you guys to pray for me. If JuJu scores 24.2 points or more for me, I will have made the playoffs without David Johnson or Ezekiel Elliott....
Yeah, I guess it is hard to judge how Siemian did in that case. But man, he didn’t help himself. The smartest play he made all day was tossing the...
No. I was there. Ajayi could’ve ran down their throats too. There was some good blocking and open holes.
I was there, boys. I was shocked how well we did with the exception of a couple of turnovers. Special teams was damn good, great field position...
No Ajayi, no run. Tannehill never would’ve had that great stretch without him.
I’m not mad or cynical. I’m just being realistic. This organization is simply screwed with Gase and Tannenbaum.
The Eagles were able to make that trade because of the Shurmur connection, but I get your point. The Seahawks are a good example too. I’ll add...
You aren’t looking at a glass half full. You’re looking at a glass that’s got a drop left in it from the leaky roof.
The message should be that Gase is an idiot.
This. Why did we gift the Eagles Ajayi for a low fourth rounder again?
Yeah, he should’ve held onto Ajayi and had a non-cokehead OL coach to carry him to 10-6 again.
I’m guessing you like evaluating almost anybody by their W/L record but I don’t see Gase ever going 10-6 or better again without a guy like Ajayi....
If it’s accurate and reasonable, yes, you should. Why do you feel the need to go a different path?
What really sucks about Tannehill being injured is that his dead cap money drops dramatically next season, so we really could’ve used this one to...
Hey, a civil discussion between us, very nice. Luck has been inconsistent and injury prone, but I do believe he has the higher ceiling. The same...

I have to see which draft picks we end up with and where players are projected to land to know what my strategy would be.
We’ll see how things shake out. Also, idk why you’re making fun of rednecks when I don’t know any and everybody I know is Hispanic and doesn’t...
I didn’t know you meant the question that way. I thought you were asking which power I’d rather have, not Gase.
Yeah, that’s really farfetched. I don’t know of anybody that thought he’d be this good. But plenty of people would’ve wanted to trade Tannehill.
I wouldn’t wish that on any fanbase except the Kaepernick fanbase.
Actually, I’d go with the Browns. I think everybody can agree it’s the Browns.
And we’re the most tortured fans in the country. Good thing I can enjoy the Canes until we have a competent organization.
I’m glad we got rid of him anyway
Final say on 53. If you build a team with a certain philosophy in mind, the playcalling should follow.
We had a running game and stuck to it sometimes.
Okay, let’s play your game. Please tell me at which point of the franchise I’m supposed to have inherited the HC job and take responsibility for...

This team would be better with a healthy Tannehill but he wasn’t the biggest factor last year. He’s never been special. His ACL has been torn...

If only somebody had warned us since the very beginning about him.
Thank God we got rid of Ajayi. Right, guys?
There’s a lot bigger fish to fry...
It seems like a lot of the forum is onboard with drafting a QB to replace Tannehill and is starting to turn on Gase. Wow, imagine that.
It’s almost like Ajayi carried us last season and was scapegoated.

As long as he doesn’t bring in Kaepernick, I don’t see why not. Anybody remember if he had anything to do with that amazing 49ers defense?

Yup. Let’s all just focus on Drake’s 7.7 YPC against the 27th ranked rushing defense and keep our heads in the sand
Why are you so obsessed with me?
Not buying it. Seems like a PR piece. It was a bad look to guarantee bringing him back after a fluke play.
Ross never wanted to fire him but his hand was forced after what, 4 games into the next season? Philbin’s career was flatlining and then that...
I believe it, actually. That sack total was an anomaly for them.
Ross literally guaranteed Philbin would be back after that game. The writing was on the wall before then. You’re so petty.
I was happy until I saw how the team celebrated like they won the SB and then I was dumbfounded when I heard the news. Ross has no clue.
I was there too. I was absolutely disgusted. I didn’t renew my season tickets because of that.

How is that not the narrative? Quite a few posters are trying to talk themselves into believing getting rid of Ajayi helped the run game. He’s...
One run? You’re gonna penalize him for a 48 yard TD and only getting 8 carries in a committee as a new player against the 6th ranked defense?...

Drake averaged 7.7 YPC, Williams 2 YPC. Your confirmation bias is unbelievable. Giving extra YPC, not realizing Oakland’s rushing defense was...
Being the most balanced and the most pass happy isn’t a good thing. There’s a reason teams are supposed to be extremely ground oriented on 3rd and 1.
So why don’t we just forget about RBs altogether and run all WR sets all the time? If we can’t do better than 80 yards and 0 TDs between two RBs...
Everybody forgets Ajayi was the best in the league against stacked boxes. There’s only so much you can do when you’re the only thing the opposing...

I had a stat in some thread a couple of days ago about how Gase is number one in the league at calling passing plays on 3rd and 1. It’s him.

You’re overthinking it. Defensive players study opposing teams’ offenses. Eric Weddle is a 4 time Pro Bowler. It was a compliment.

Oh boy, here comes the rant about Brady.

I’m saying wait a few games because the Eagles will be facing some of the highest ranked defenses now. I’m sure he’ll still score at least 1 TD,...
Nah, I’m not sweating trading away a Pro Bowler for a low 4th round pick. Clearly we should side with Gase. It’s not like Ajayi turned the season...
So does it matter or not? Surely we’ll pick up another gem!
Oh good, I feel so much better about giving up Ajayi.
It makes the trade that much worse. Last year Ajayi had the most yards after contact and made the Pro Bowl. We traded him for what’s not far off...
Blount only has a one year contract with the Eagles too. He can really shine and get more touches next year.
Because that fourth rounder will be at the bottom of the fourth round. Isn’t that obvious?
The fact is Gase didn’t give Ajayi many opportunities, the team started off with a terrible record, Foster retired, Ajayi went berserk and carried...
Are you a new fan? How can it get significantly worse?
You forgot to mention that Pro Bowler was traded to the team with the best record in the league for that fourth round pick.
Wait until he plays a few games for the Eagles.
You just answered your own question. Gase’s issue is teams know what he is doing. He’s inept.
I already knew that. Jamaal Charles is 30 years old and tore his ACL two seasons in a row. AFAIK, Ajayi last tore his ACL in 2011 and he’s only...
You’re so level-headed. It’s not like we gave 2016’s best yards-after-contact RB to the team with the best record in the NFL for a fourth round pick.
Idc what the reasoning was. He didn’t give the guy touches for the first few games. Ajayi forced his hand and carried them on that winning streak....
And who brought in that cokehead? Who benefitted from Ajayi carrying him last year despite barley giving him touches at first? Who benefitted from...
Oh boy did I get hammered for saying Gase was overrated. He went with Foster over Ajayi at first, then barely gave him touches, then Ajayi went...

First of all, I wanted Kuechly, but if he was worth that contract to other teams, surely we could've gotten close to the value of our original...
Think about all the positions we had turnover in because of the contract we gave to Tannehill. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The thing is you can't expect ideal circumstances every game. I'd love for that to be the norm, but we'll see. If Ajayi keeps getting touches and...
Yes, cbrad pointed out what you meant. Are you predicting Tannehill will continue that trend next season? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm talking about a Moneyball approach. Making our money go further. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Didn't Moore have the more run down team? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
We could've kept Moore. Not sure if Glennon or Schaub were available. I wanted to draft McCarron and Cook since then. There were options that were...
Hey, I hope he can do that next season and I'm proven wrong, but I don't see that happening. We'll see. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
How is the team mediocre? They did well with two different QBs. We've had our best roster in a while. Wake, Ajayi, Jones, Suh, Landry, Pouncey,...
I'm talking about when Tannehill was due his contract. Pretty sure our money would've went further. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Which stat are you using? He's ranked 12th in passer rating and 24th in total QBR. Any stats guys wanna weigh in on this? Sent from my iPhone...
The thing is I don't think they should've signed him at all. Just now we've finally had a winning season and you can barely give the guy credit....
I'm not even talking about now. I advocated for this before Tannehill was due his contract. If it wasn't for that contract, we could've gotten a...
That's the problem with Tannehill's pay. He's not even close to a top level QB and his pay is close. It's not his fault the market is in a bubble,...
Yes, you made a lot of great points, but you should take a look at cbrad's post on how to tell if QBs are under or overvalued in general. I truly...
I think that upward trend was mostly due to the NFL favoring offense and the passing game to increase ratings. Of course, because there's a salary...
Basically I'm wondering about a Moneyball approach to evaluating the value of Tannehill. I'm not worried about how his contract compares to other...
What does this have to do with the thread? You're not proving or disproving any previously mentioned points. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was worried you'd say that. There are too many factors, so we might as well let this thread die. I guess the best we can do is sit back and see...
This thread serves no purpose other than to try to settle which route would've been the best route. Mental masturbation, if you will, to pass the...

Well, I took the bait. I'm done with talking Tannehill. Somebody make another thread if you want to talk about it so badly. Edit: made another...
I was born in 1992. I don't see how we got a great return on investment. I wanted Kuechly, but when we came at the crossroads where Tannehill was...
I'm not defending anything. I'm saying there's no point putting any stock into these rankings or debating where we fit. If you're not a top team,...

I didn't make the rankings and don't care about them. My only point is respect is given and not earned. We haven't earned it, but we might earn...
Nah. There's so many arguments about Tannehill because posters don't agree on his value or where he stands in rankings. I don't think any...
Danmarino isn't addressing the initial point made by KeyFin. He's turning it into another Tannehill thread. Yes, Garoppolo played like a...

Yeah, that goes for any QB, doesn't it? Unless you stats guys have some mind blowing stuff for me [emoji38] You guys don't even know. I'd run the...
Thank God. A RB like Ajayi can carry the offense and take a load off the defense. If I ever buy an offensive player's jersey, it'll be Ajayi's...
I know I'm gonna catch flak for this, but I think Gase was wise to keep passing attempts so low. This team will go as far as Ajayi and the defense...
You're bringing up an interesting point but the NFL average is insignificant. What's the average amongst teams with very good RBs like Ajayi?...
Wasn't that the game where the receivers had a ton of YAC? Can you really give him credit for that? There's some other games where he was pretty...
Unfortunately so much revolves around the QB since football has only gotten more pass happy. Almost every thread inevitably becomes about him....
Yeah, let's agree to disagree. I don't think Tannehill ever borders on legendary. I think he borders on being top 10 sometimes but usually closer...
Good stuff. I disagree that you'd have to pay Moore starting QB money if you keep him any longer. He won't get that money anywhere unless...
What do you mean by proper adjustments? I don't know about you but 0.675 more wins per season isn't worth the difference in their salaries. If...
Moore has a higher rating as a Dolphin than Tannehill so what does that say about Tannehill and all these brilliant GMs that get fired all the...
He outperformed Tannehill this season in the games he played. I'm pretty sure his passer rating is close to Tannehill's as a Dolphin or even...

No, it means if you kept playing Moore, his most recent performances might not be a departure from what is normal. Sent from my iPhone using...
You can slice and dice it anyway you want to, but the stats show that if you give him opportunities, he'll do as well as Tannehill or even better....
Everybody knows quarterbacks are dependent on their teams and vice versa. I'm getting at the body of work over their careers that indicate Moore's...
That's not an argument. Moore had a better passer rating. It might not be an aberration considering him and Tannehill's career ratings aren't far...
I agreed with everything up to the point about how we have the talent to win the Super Bowl. Our defense as a whole and our offensive line would...
No, it hasn't. When Wake had at least half a sack per game last season, we won every time. That's a win correlation of 100%. So if the GM felt...
First of all, they're not all the same positions, just the same group, so you're being disingenuous. DE isn't DT. Harris does not play the same...

That's another thing I'm factoring in. Aside from the easy wins at the beginning, the schedule gets tougher, guys get banged up and injured and I...

I wouldn't say way too early considering the draft is over. It's still early and of course circumstances change throughout the season but it's...
