Titans trade for Tannehill

One great year and one terrible year...I would have taken him for both to get that great year.

 

Even he knows better

 

Locker was better. There’s no debate threads because there is no debate about it.

 

iirc it was more about Manning encroaching on Lockers space and hindering his development.

Cant recall which posters took that stance but that was definitely a days long debate at one point

 

Sure thing. 45% of this board didn’t want Peyton.

Do you want Peyton?

 

Yeah there were a few headscratcher comments, but it does seem most of those against Manning had good reasons.

 

Some context...

Remember Manning was coming off a neck injury and there was some question as to whether that would affect his throwing....and how long he'd still be able to play. I think if everyone knew he'd be awesome the next year...we'd all have signed up for that to make a SB run.

 

I have decided that we are in a Drew Brees situation with Tannehill.

Brees was a "good" QB in San Diego but not "franchise" level, so they moved on from him. Obviously he went to New Orleans and became one of the best ever.

Same situation unfolding in Tennessee. Tannehill = Brees 2.0

Also, IMO, the root cause of Mariota being inconsistent and a "4th quarter" hero is because he is a rhythm QB. Mariota needs pass plays early and often. He would play much better in a pass heavy offense where he can get into rhythm early. Being stuck in an run-heavy offense year after year hurts him.

 

Yea waiting to throw til 3rd downs is so dumb

Need to pass more, but this staff and the last 2 dont believe in that philosophy...

 

it is telling that everyone who has come in has shied away from passing much.
