Stop the madness! It’s preseason.

I’m not saying Mariota would have thrown 2 tds, but you can’t say he would not have given more than 1 series. Tannehill’s first drive was a 3 and out

And I watched the game on TV, I had a better view than you.
You realize you are talking about a guy who has thrown 11 and 13 tds in the past TWO ENTIRE SEASONS. But yeah, lets give him the benefit of the doubt and say if he had played a quarter he would have gone on an unprecedented TD streak....

please, you Mary Minions are out of your minds.

Is that what I said?
 
actually... if tannehill had also had only 1 drive (like mariota) he would have went 3 and out
We've seen many games and many players have elite games... but start slow.

You can't take small samples of players in a football game. You just can't.

Let Mariota play as much as Tanne and he could have lit them up. We will never know.
 
The tendencies of 4 previous years say otherwise when we are talking odds. Rwill in here flaming up fairies. Somebody pissed in his wheaties today lol.

Well to be fair, Mariota never had a good game against the Eagles, ever...

Lol
 
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.

JR what kind of booze were you drinkin at Lincoln Financial last night lol. I’m not a Mariota lover nor do I hate him but you can’t possibly asses his performance missing half his offense, in the 1st preseason gm, on one series. That’s madness. I get you aren’t a fan but you gotta let it run it’s course. Tanne looked good no doubt but he was also given multiple series to get into a rhythm against backups. Tanne is a starter in this league so he should be able to move the ball against guys fighting for a roster spot. If anything it should put Mariota on notice which isn’t a bad thing. I think it’s premature for anyone to start a qb controversy based on last night given the limited playing time and who was on the field.

Tanny playing well last night is what we need IMO, that should push Mary to take more shots.
 
We know that Davis, Brown, Humphries and Sharpe are making the team...the bottom of the WR roster is going to be a battle. I think Jennings is a lock because of his return skills....so do we keep 6 or 7 WRs....I think we keep 6 to start the season unless Davis/Brown are still a no go due to injury....so can Taylor hold off Raymond and Hollister???

Is Jennings a lock? Raymond has return skills and he's showing legit ability to grow as a receiver. I don't really see Jennings becoming much as a receiver.
 
All 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.
Funny, but you completely forgot to mention Tannehill going for 3 and out last night. I didn't see that happen to Mariota.

I'm not bagging on Tannehill’s performance last night, I think that he played well and I'm happy the Titans have him.

But let's not crown him as the better QB based on one drive by MM and a cherrypicked quarter and a half by Tannehill during the 1st pre-season game.

The better they both play, the happier I am. I don't understand some people think that you can only like one or the other.

yeah I guess since I was called "dense" because I said Mariota played poorly got me a bit fired up.
 
I thought this was covered in unbelievably great depth all offseason................

Tanney is Tanney (Alex).
Tannehill is THill or Tannehill.
 
You are the guy who thinks 4-8 for 24 yards was a good game. That is so past dense it is ridiculous.
i think moving the ball down the field and getting points on the board in your lone drive is good, which it is. (points would have been scored on the fg)

thinking otherwise is.... dense

He is the better qb, because he is the better qb. He still isn't what I consider to be a "good" qb, but he is better than Mariota. None of this is based on last night, this is their careers.

Once again, listening to national sports shows, they trashed Mariota and praised Tannehill. Only people defending Mariota are the same 5 people who will go down to the last breath defending him.

Good news is, the same homers will be creaming all over themselves about the next starting qb we have and forget all about Mariota.

Wow, you have gone off the deep end now. He did NOT get points on the board.

Now you are using hypotheticals and maybes to try to boost that crap qb.
 
I never started a QB controversy. It’s clear that Mary is starter and that it’s preseason. I drank 1 beer Alex. Lol. Nobody is crowning Tannehill or Mary. Just a simple assessment. The Eagles didn’t have starters in most of the game so neither Mary or Tannehill saw much, but to sit here and act like Mary looked as good is foolish. I was there, he didn’t....It is what it is. To assume he would have got 2 smooth drives and touchdowns is also foolish. We won’t know, but we will in time. Even the music city miracles podcast said as much. It’s a good problem to have because we finally have a capable backup, because let’s face it, Mary is going down at some point. History says as much (since we are all assuming).
 
Mariota missed open guys and absolutely stared down Hump nearly every play. His last pass to hump should have been picked as he just stared him down over the middle. I get it that he had drops as well, but come on... Mary looks like a rookie still. I have no idea what Tannehill would look like with our true starters, but I seriously doubt he would look worse than Mary.
