Herbert has elite size and athletic ability. I’ve just heard he’s an introvert. I hope Herbert takes the next step. Murray and Tua are great and obviously I’d like to have them but I’d still prefer a big QB.
Alabama QBs do not translate well to the NFL, Joe Namath and Ken Stabler was the last 2 to amount to anything.
Within a minute Simon also talks about misinformation. Fitzpatrick never had a 6 pick game last year. Also the last five years fitzpatrick has vastly outplayed Tannehill. It really isn’t close who has been the best qb.
His 6 int game (2016) he threw 5 int the last 17 minutes while the team was down by 14 points. Who cares that he threw int while trying to bring the team back. Certainly better than a qb/coach who would rather run on 3rd and 10 with the game on the line.
I love these podcasts you guys do a great job however one thing keeps getting propagated and you guys are no alone in this. There seems to be a sentiment that is coming through that Tannehill was playing at an elite level and only a injury to his knee and then bad management of that curtailed a stellar career. Tha's simply not true, the end of that 2016 season saw a QB playing well, but not lights out, he was very much riding the coat tails of a RB putting up ridiculous numbers on a very soft schedule. it was certainly not a given that had he stayed fit we would have still made those playoffs, when Matt Moore came in QB stats actually went up.
Let's try not to rewrite history,I'm trying not to think or talk about Tannehill anymore because for me that era is consigned to the garbage bin but Tannehill consistently failed to reach a level that should be defined by a Franchise QB. He failed to play in a single post season game, his entire 7 year career as a fin, that is pretty disastrous and it was certainly not because he sustained a knee injury in his penultimate injury free season with us that threw his career off target.
Note: I may be ranting about a previous podcast, listened to a few back to back.
What makes you guys so sure that Herbert is the guy?
The Phins QB is in this years draft, Drew Lock is just as good as any 2020 QB
