To keep Tanny or NOT?

And honestly, why wouldn't we? I don't think this is a "flash in the pan" performance. I think Miami held him back. Even if he slides a bit- he's still serviceable and we only spent a 4th round pick in draft capital. I'd be Ok with what you mentioned.

 

Still has the Titans single season record for yards. 3541 I think.

 

By all means sell me on McMahon. He didn’t compare with his era (the 80’s) well either.

He got injured almost every year, was hardly the focal point on offense at all.
Walter Payton and that D carried him.

You’re either showing you’re ignorance or you’re memory is slipping.

McMahon was never top 15 anything.

 

I'd rather pay Tammy the big bucks and forget about drafting and developing a QB. Historically this organization sucks and cannot develop QBs so might as well pay the guy that is a proven talent. Tammy can play at a high level for 4 years or more.

Make some trades or draft and build the O line and defense more.

 

On McMahon not being any good?

He wasn’t. In an era where 3K was the norm and 20 TD, he was an 2k sometimes and 10-15 TD.

His absolute best year was the SB year.
2392, (20th), 15 TD (tied for 16th), and 11 INT. He was 7th in rating but also only played 13 games (started 11).

Not once did he finish a 16 (or 15 or even 14) game season, he had 1 13 game season over a 15 year career.

The one thing he was good at, which I already said, was his deep ball. Coincidently willie Gault was known as a high avg. receiver and with Payton in the backfield, he become MM bad if he can’t throw long.

I don’t know what you could possibly see in him to think he was better than and avg (at best) QB in the 80’s. He really wasn’t even avg.

 

JRob deserves his props for picking up Tanny for a 4th. Has proven to be a

STRONG MOVE.

 

Yes. We finally have a QB

 

I'm pretty sure TN makes a decent offer and also pretty sure Tannehill will take it. The way things are going he'd be a fool to leave. He's got weapons, a decent line, and one hell of a defense to keep them in the game. Also, don't forget the AFC South is usually wide-open every year. If he stays and plays a full season the sky's the limit.

I'm guessing they'll draft his successor somewhere in the 2nd or 3rd, but probably get some help on the o-line in the 1st. That might be a selling point when negotiating his long-term deal.
