Ryan Tannehill and INT issues/chemistry
4 replies
Mastering a new offense is never as easy as it sounds and is almost always accompanied by massive potholes in the road.
Learning his first truly new offense since switching to quarterback in college, Tannehill has been on a rollercoaster ride to start camp under coordinator Bill Lazor.
Recently Tannehill has thrown a slew of interceptions in practice as he and his targets get comfortable with the scheme.
"It's a combination of a bunch of stuff," Tannehill said, per The Miami Herald. "Some throws we're just trying to make in practice to see if it's something we want to move with on during the season. We have other answers on the plays, but the coaching staff wants to take a look at some throws against some different coverages and see if we can complete them.''
The coaching staff doesn't like the picks but isn't worried about the third-year quarterback working through the trials.
"There were too many interceptions," coach Joe Philbin said. "However, I thought we responded well later in the practice and kind of worked through it."
I like reading how Lazor is always in his ear. I really hope Lazor and Tanne becomes the combo we've been missing. It is tough on Tanne to have to learn a new offense with a new coach. It could be tough, but I think Tanne can handle it.

Right? I hope this isn't taken the wrong way, but I'm sure it will be. :)

Expected it, Tannehill is being asked to do more and there will be bumps in the road, let's see how quickly Lazor and THill adjust
