He was obviously not a Dolphin fan and only a Tannehill fan for some reason. Was pretty obvious

The only reason Tannehill would likely take a pay cut is if he extended him and gave him grtd money.
A cut or trade is much much more likely.

FFIB is a good poster and he is a Dolphins fan all day.
But he tied himself to Ryan Tannehill and defaulted blame of the lack of team success to everything except Ryan Tannehill with the expectation that he has no accountability when other moving parts struggled.
Even reshuffling the coaching staff, offensive pieces, lack of QB competition, etc. None of it mattered. In no right world does any team have a perfect surrounding around the QB and often its the QB that is the ultimate difference in a team having consistent success or continuing failures.
Like Russell Wilson and Seattle . . . Yea the running game and defense was great . . . .but it was Russll Wilson who was ultimately the X factor in that team winning a championship with the timely plays he made when those moving parts broke down.
To down play the importance of the QB to prop up Ryan Tannehill’s tenure as a Miami Dolphin was his ultimate flawed thought process.
That doesn’t mean its right to rub salt in the wounds . . . .i battled him as much as anyone and believe it or not . . . .I wanted him to be right, but reality told me that it likely wasn’t going to happen . . . .and it never did.

Funny you bring up Seattle, as if Ryan Tannehill didn't beat Russell Wilson once in Miami and should've twice with the 2016 season opener except RT wasn't good enough to catch a perfect pass, he wasn't mature enough to not get suspended before a big match up against super bowl contenders. He certainly wasn't good enough to help the defense hold the lead he created with what should've been a game winning drive.
Nope, always and forever Tannehill's fault.
When did he ever down play the importance of the QB position? If anything our last playoff performance did the opposite.
You can act like the last 3 weeks of the season somehow define an entire 7 year career.
Jarvis Landry was all the help this kid was given.
Go print out the list of every player we've drafted since 2011, start a thread in main forum breaking them all down and try and convince anyone you were "right".
They apparently saved us from ongoing adjuster nonsense, as defined by the remainder of your post.
I'm sure Russell Wilson and Seahawks fans are devastated that he lost to Ryan Tannehill once, and nearly again. Meanwhile the Seahawks are trying to figure out how to pay Wilson, while we try to figure out how to get rid of Ryan Tannehill.
Fortunately the real world tends to shake loose from all the tortured adjuster thinking
My point is that RT has been rather consistent for 7 years when dealing with a revolving door of players who have had little to no talent to offer this roster.
If I am analyzing the team, I am not going to pretend like a Patrick Mahomes could walk into the building and take the team to the playoffs.
Patrick Mahomes can be broken in half just like every other man on the planet.
I am not going to pretend any of the OL we've acquired in the last 8 years have done their job. Laremy Tunsil is the only saving grace and we saw what happened once we lost him for a half.
I get the desire to want to start fresh. I don't care much for the fans who waited for weeks 15-17 to happen so they could say 2012-18 can now be defined.
Ryan Tannehill should feel no shame. Propping up a horrible roster with his toughness.
Mike Pouncey, Richie Incognito and Johnathon Martin deserve that honor.
Our OL Bullied each other to the point of a felony threats.
But ya, we tried.
Julius Thomas says hi. If anyone is wondering, he's still running that fade route and will be in the endzone any moment now.

And yet the majority of those drafted are long gone while posters like yourself continue to bang your head against the wall in hopes of getting the perfect surrounding around Ryan, making him the one constant, to ultimately hope to prove yourself right in what has clearly been Finheaven’s greatest pissing contest over the years.
And in that thought process, drastic stances are taken in an attempt to prove a point.
Like everybody “blames Tannehill always” . . . Oh please. People have blamed this shitty defense, coaches, OLine, skills, GM until they are blue in the face. Don’t catch feelings now that eyes start to open when we have changed those positions out 2 and 3 times, yet one guy remains and the results stay the same.
The fact that you sit up here blaming the QB in that playoff game when we know darn well the narrative would of been Branden Albert and friends whiffing on blocks if Ryan played and we lost. But of course Ryan wins that game in your eyes so LOL to that thought. Same narrative would of been at Buffalo if Ryan played and took the L . . .even though he struggles every year @Buffalo . . . .Matt got the W and the Offense put up 34 and people have the nerve to think Ryan would of done better . . . . Typical but expected.
The last 3 weeks didn’t define anything . . . .it was more of the same. 90 games of watching a guy that needs everything to be perfect to put up points and win games . . . And when it ain’t perfect he is almost always incapable of being a difference maker.
Ass kicker in 7 on 7’s . . . A jag when it counts in the standings. A guy that has no business going uncontested as the starter for 7 years.
Now he has a pretty significant injury history and he is over 30 . . . .the time is overdue on cutting bait . . . .shed your tears and move on like many who have supported him have started to do.

Tua time!
The answer in all of this is probably somewhere in the middle. Qb and o line play and attrition combination.

Well you were in the same boat so I get the defensiveness. Literally all he ever posted was defending Tannehill for the past however many years. Now he’s ghost. Most of the Tannehill defenders are still here and it’s all good but he’s in ghost mode because he still can’t admit he was wrong

Well said.. It’s been a long 7 years defending those two stances..
Right up until this year they were going strong..

Agree on that.
But I will say even in 2016 when we saw the best peak of Ryan Tannehill football, with the best OLine play, most weapons and a near the top of the league running game . . . .the offense wasn’t great . . . .they were just good in that stretch and still got demolished on the road vs. a physical team in Baltimore.
But everything about 2018 saw a guy a half a second slower at least in comparison to his peak. Reads, instincts and after the in season injury the arm fell off a cliff.
And honestly, it was expected, but the early record jaded the perception a bit. It must be damn near impossible to come back mentally so soon after two extensive rehabs that took him out of 20 games and nearly 20 months of real football.
Can’t do it anymore, but if for some crazy reason we do, it needs to be seriously contested over the summer.
