I still think the Steelers lose in Miami. Just not ready to believe they win 2 games in a row in which they're favored. Doesn't happened very often, but it will be cool if it does

- we are the worst in the NFL at running the all

- we are the worst in the NFL at stopping the run

- we don't currently have a healthy cornerback that would start on another NFL team

- Tannehill faces pressure on almost 50% of his dropbacks

- we have won one game and that's only because the Browns kicker was hurt otherwise we would have lost potentially by double digits

- we are scoring 17.6 points per game

- we have the third worst point differential in the NFL

You could go -4 on turnovers and win by double digits

I can't even describe how bad we are. We missed 17 tackles against the Titans. We are worse than the 2007 1-15 team.

Miami killed Adam Gase, QB Whisperer

Gase is fed up with everyone and still defends ryan tannehill every week it owns

quote:

“I’ve got to look at the whole picture,” Gase said. “I’m calling the plays. I know what it’s supposed to look like and it’s not looking like that right now as far as what’s going on around him. And when we start cleaning some things up and we give him a chance to perform at the level that I think he’s going to perform — and if he doesn’t do it, that’s one thing, but I need to see to where we get a chance in protection, we’re right on a lot of the other things that we’re supposed to be doing.

” … Everyone wants to blame that position. It’s the easy one to do, because you can see completion/incompletion/interception. When you hit your back foot and you get sacked, no much you can do about it.”

lol @ anyone who thinks Gase has "failed" with Tannehill. It is impossible to even evaluate Tannehill because he's getting pressured at a record rate. It's absolutely incredible.

Then you look at PFF and they show that when Tannehill actually gets any time to throw the ball, he grades out just fine.

tldr: there isn't a QB in the entire NFL that could win in this situation

i love these subjective stats you guys keep rolling out for Tannehill

when the 9 realms are in alignment, Ryan is the most accurate QB in the NFL

when there happen to be exactly seven clouds in the sky Ryan Tannehill has a winning percentage of .750

Ryan Tannehill is the only QB to ever pull off his skate and attempt to slit another player's throat


he sucks, you suck, i was right, gently caress you, Happy Halloween

it's literally, "when ryan Tannehill is protected he is a good QB"

Well the flipside is he also needs to do his share by making reads faster and getting the ball out before the defense hits home. Let's not pretend he is blameless.

I agree, but lately he's under siege as soon as his feet are planted on a 3 step drop. He often doesn't even have time to make reads.

Worst players at every position this week:

https://www.profootballfocus.com/pro-lowest-graded-player-at-every-position-in-nfl-week-5

Includes the entire left side of the Dolphins OL

quote:

Left tackle: Billy Turner, Miami Dolphins, 26.1

Turner was essentially a turnstile in this game, allowing pressure at an alarming rate against a Titans’ defense that hasn’t been all that good. He surrendered three sacks, two hits, and three hurries.

Left guard: Dallas Thomas, Miami Dolphins, 35.9

Like Turner, Dallas Thomas also had a rough day at the office. The Dolphins’ guard surrendered a QB hit, three QB hurries, two tackles, and allowed his blocking assignment to disrupt Miami’s rushing attack on quite a few snaps.

pasaluki posted:

It isn't the dollars and cents of the contract, it's more the unwillingness to move on from it. Plenty of teams including my own have given tons of money to ugly QBs but they have sobered up and moved on.

What I'm saying is the Dolphins have been content to stick with the guy and obviously neglected the rest of their team as well.

Is Tannehill the cause of all the Dolphins issues? No but he isn't the solution either and is regressing. Turning the team around isn't even as simple as fixing the Oline because they have been badly mismanaged, and even worse they lack motivation in my opinion.

I don't understand this take. Miami has invested a ton in trying to create an environment in which Tannehill can succeed. It's not they have neglected the rest of the team. It's that the moves that were made did not work out. The offensive line is filled with guys drafted between rounds 1 and 3 and it has been just awful.

I have no idea if they are poorly coached, unmotivated or something else, but it's not fair to say the Dolphins haven't attempted to address the issues. The attempts have just been spectacular failures.

Lastly, I have no idea if Tannehill is regressing. He isn't even given enough time in the pocket for us to know if that's the case.
