so you think he's been struggling, but dont want to give him reps? even if only 1 drive?I see what your saying and not trying to argue. Just disagree about a 5th yr, potential Franchise QB needing reps in PS1...unless he's still a bit of "tingles". Plus, I'm of the mind 5th yr QB has used up their excuses.
Exactly my issue. Tons of talent, good kid, just REALLY inconsistent and makes some questionable throws and decisions. His pocket presence 5 years in worries me a ton.What I would say is we have basically the same QB, but Tannehill is more confident and pushes the ball downfield. With no improvement from Mariota, we'll be right where we were last year either way. But at least Tannehill will look better at being average. The only hope is that Mariota really was confined by the offense all these years, but he can look so timid and lost at times, it may be more than that.

I really dont like doing this but there are several QB's in history who didnt do much til year-5Look I know the dude is the starter and I know this is a prove it year. I just think a 5th yr "franchise QB" shouldn't be struggling. I think it's telling that a 5th yr Franchise QB "needs reps"
Oh I agree. He shouldn't need them but you gotta give him the reps if he is struggling.I see what your saying and not trying to argue.

just saying, hes not necessarily a finished product just cause others around the league have had more success early.
Yea its been discussed to deathHe's regressed if anything - not improved; that I would say is concerning for a 5th yr QB that the team is deciding whether or not to extend as the starter. T
hat about sums up my "big" worries. Swore I wasn't going to get pulled into the Mary debates (which I kind of think you feel the same about; it's a dead horse). So I'll shut up now
actually... if tannehill had also had only 1 drive (like mariota) he would have went 3 and outAll I know is, we started the game yesterday with Mary doing Mary things. Tannehill steps in, and we punch the ball in the endzone twice and create rhythm. 5 years in shouldn’t be this sketchy...He better turn this bs around and fast.
I'm trying to not let myself get excited, but I really hope Smith is that guy who's been around, survived multiple HC's because he's good at his job, and finally gets his shot and goes with it. Preseason or not, it was fun to watch. I'll believe it when I see it in the regular season though. That said, he of all people should know what Mariota needs to be successful.I was really surprised at the number of pass plays Smith dialed up. We looked like a 21st century offense. I’m sure that was just smoke and mirrors, though.
Ahhhh okay...So now it’s simply Mariota doesn’t get enough time...Okay, got it. When is the last time Mariota (with plenty of time) drove downfield like that twice? I’ll wait.......It doesn’t happen often. It’s preseason, I get it, but stop the madness.actually... if tannehill had also had only 1 drive (like mariota) he would have went 3 and out

Oh but I can compare. I was there dude. Mary still unsure in the pocket. The feeling was completely different. How in the hell do either of you “know” that Mary would have thrown 2 TD’s and moved the ball down the field given more time? Stop being homers. Tannehill looked better, and rarely do we see Mariota create drives as such. It’s not being a hater. It’s fact.Come on JR lol you stop the madness man.
Tanne was able to create rhythm because he played more than 1 series.
Can’t really compare

Exactly. Mariota played poorly. Not sure how Vondy can't see that. I guess he has his head so far up Mariota rear he can't see the game.There it is. Rational, unbiased analysis. Keep it coming man.
You are the guy acting like 4-8 for 24 yards was a good game and you call me dense. What you are saying isn't dense, it is downright stupid, but that is expected from you at this point.Mariota was fine, moved the ball down the field using the one guy he trusted.
Taylor dropped like 3 passes that hit him in the hands.
I'd say "I know you aren't this dense" but I think you actually might be
Oh thats right, they all came into the game to play when Tannehill tookover..1 drive and we would have scored with a kick without cd/Brown/Lewan/saffold/conk/Delanie/henry.... IN WHAT WORLD IS THAT NOT GOOD??? sorry if I don't overreact and claim that to be terrible.
You are the one acting strange over 1 drive of a preseason wk 1 game lol
