TANNEHILL Chokes AGAIN

[Strangeworld]

He does some things good.

But it's worrying, One thing that is VERY NOTICEABLE is that he seems to lack POCKET AWARENESS.
(when to step up, when to step to the side, when to just run) It reminds me a bit of Henne.
He seems a step too slow to react and lacking the true quickness & mobility necessary nowadays.

Agreed... Dude has Henne-esque pocket awareness.

Extremely concerning and not something that can be "taught".. you either wake up with it or you don't.

This site makes you waaaay more depressed than the game could ever do...

He's clearly a loser. Cut him. Hey, just forget that he had the team in position to win other games this year that the kicker blew. Btw, the guy all you idiot freak-out reactionists like to compare Tannehill to, Henne, had a couple of drives that won games. He still turned out to suck dick. So all you short-sighted knee-jerkers need to chill out, because trust me- when it comes to QB play, you really have no idea what you're talking about.

Other that the fact that he was a first round QB, what have you seen that tells you he is not a mediocre or worse QB??? I'm not trying to be a smart***, I'm just wondering why you have such steadfast faith?

I'm don't have blind faith. I simply use common sense. The guy is a raw qb with zero weapons. He has played some good games and some bad one. I don't know what you expect of him.

Actually it's not.

People expect everyone to be Joe Montana right away, and they get upset and impatient when it doesn't happen. This is because of a lack of football intellect in most cases.

[PATSSUCK]

Yes it is.

Whatever. I know you have been actively rooting against the guy from day one.

Again what did you expect of him on THIS team?

Yeah, his pocket awareness was fine when his offensive line was blocking for him. He's jumpy in the pocket because he has no time and is constantly worried he's gonna get killed. It's hurt his confidence a little. But his pocket awareness is nothing like Henne's, it's much better. Again, I'm tired of these blind Henne comparisons. Some of you need to actually watch these games.

I haven't been rooting against anyone. The guy pissed away plenty of games just like this in college. It's concerning.

Actually it's not.

Honestly, I just wanted to see some progression in key areas especially the ability to be clutch when it matters. that's what really has shaken my faith with him.

[PASQUALE]

I think this is more worrying than all the INTS he's thrown this year. He just doesn't seem to be able to drive the team down the field when it matters most, I know he doesn't have the weapons and that probably gives him the benefit of the doubt a little here, but it hasn't even looked close.

Nailed it. He is 0 fo 5 in game winning situtation. That for me is troubling. He is not clutch is pressure situation also in college. These last 3 weeks he has regressed.

He has got to learn to escape the pocket and throw it away if it is not there. The long throw to Bess on the fly route. As soon as Bess beat his man the ball should be out and quick over the top. Byrd would have never gotten that pick. He threw it late.

He is getting pummeled out there and it may be ruining his confidence. His demeanor when we don't convert is like oh well. No, they should mad they did not convert.

Well I will give him these next 6 games to show me some improvement without regression or this kid is not the answer.

Luck and the rookie phenomenon has heightened the expectations of a QB who was "supposedly" 3 years away from starting..if he comes back against the Seahawks and throws 5tds,he is Marino and we are playoff contenders..look at the big picture and stop being so short sighted about wins or losses. You guys knew what time it was before the season even started
