    Hmm... Titans are on track to win their 3d straight AFC South title, and Tannehill had something to do with that.

    You're still upset over last year's playoff loss, I get that. Tannehill had a bad game, but he's the starter for a good reason.

    It's not that he's so great, it's that the alternatives are that much worse.

    It was a minor joke for starters lol...

    But to your second statement - yes, I am absolutely done with INTannehill. However, I will not waste time defending an opinion of what has already been beaten to death with a stick in the offseason on this forum.

    Y'all do realize that even in college, the knock on him was he held on to the ball too long, right? It's like mentally it messes with him, which is why there's been so many instances where he throws the ball away TOO EARLY when he could have made a play running it, because he thinks he's making the right play.

    I've seen enough to see he's a backup QB (if that) in the NFL.

    Likable guy, but we don't need to waste anymore time in trying to develop him into a starting QB.

    ^ Sadly you might be right. I know it’s only 2 games, but I’ve never seen an NFL quarterback this bad in a 2 game span. Yes, you’ll see prospects miss throws and reads, but I’ve never seen a NFL quarterback scared to throw the ball like this. Being a rookie is not an excuse. Even Tebow never looked this bad. Also, it’s worth noting that Willis didn’t play against great competition either in college. I do think he has a spot on the team and the league, but as a situational QB for certain packages. The good news is Tannehill should be ready by next week.

    I'm generally pretty lenient on rookie QBs but this guy has nothing remotely positive to look forward to.. can't throw, can't run or scramble AT ALL, dumb decision making..there's nothing

    Not watching another game he starts, ever

    You aren’t being harsh at all, it’s because he simply doesn’t know how to run even though he’s mobile. Slow “mobile” guys like Maholmes and Big Ben knows how to navigate the field and keep plays alive even with their limited speed. Willis is just dancing around in circles for no reason. He’s like if a street baller went to the NBA and tried to show off his handles except he doesn’t actually go anywhere and then is forced into jacking up a low percentage shot.
