First off, even when him and Ryan were off to a slow start I was still very excited. But I feel the need to post this now more than ever.

Wallace and Tanne are looking like they are really starting to click....He is on pace for 991 yards and I would be willing to wager he breaks 1000 in his first year here. (Also on pace to haul in a career high in receptions)

I am MOSTLY excited not for what he and Ryan will do THIS year, but in the years he is here going forward. He is only 27, signed long-term....and with Ryan hopefully getting better it will be extremely important to have Wallace here as he is an above average WR with ELITE playmaking abilities....I approve.
 
Not really. Its clear he's not taking the top off defenses like we hoped he would this season even though he's playing as well as expected. If we don't start hitting those easy TDs when he gets behind the defense then the rest of the offense will remain congested and Wallace will essentially [STRIKE]become[/STRIKE] remain a $60 million Ted Ginn.
 
Wallace is going to start returning kicks?
 
I've always been excited about having him here. Frankly, I wasn't expecting any sort of explosive chemistry in year one. I've been saying since the signing, don't get disappointed if the first year doesn't go as planned. It's a new system for Wallace, and a totally new offense for Tannehill. Frankly, I'm more excited for next year.
 
The top receivers in the league are and always have been excellent route runners, which Wallace is not. I'm more excited about a healthy Brandon Gibson next year.
 
I'm with you. I too thought that with all the new pieces on offense (Wallace included) that this offense will struggle early and get better as the season progresses. It seems that this has been the case with Wallace, his past few games have been great compared to the games earlier in the season. All we need is for Tanny to start hitting him on those deep routes and everything else will open up for him and this offense.
 
I am. He has consistently taken a safety away from the action and backed CBs off the line all year- something we didn't see last year. Hartline has benefitted, Gibson was, Clay has, and really anybody running underneath has seen the benefit.

As for him only...yea. I'm thinking he is starting to do what is needed to excel and Tanne is finding him.
 
The last two games are encouraging, they do seem to be connecting. As much progress as Tannehill has made, imagine what this offense would be right now with Keller and Gibson

I expected 800 and 5 Tds

the problem is it seems like he shows his frustrations so harder balls to catch aren't being caught, because he doesn't try, he has a real shot however at 1000 if he tries he can break a tackle or two and then gain YAC
 
like Wallace and think he's a good WR but we're paying him as if he's the greatest WR to ever play in the NFL and he's not. I hope they start hitting those long passes soon which Tanny needs to do better at. We didn't get him to catch the most passes. We got him to score TD's and he hasn't done muh of that tho again, part of it has been on Tanny and part on him.

Ozzy rules!!
 
I'm expecting him to have a field day against his old team on Sunday. 125+ yards, 2 TDs sounds about right.
 
I always thought it took WRs more time to develop chemistry with a New QB (and vise versa) I do believe we will see this offense finish strong as the line develops chemistry and Wallace becomes more accustom to the offense.
 
Who knows, he could catch 2 long tds, or he could drop some balls, or RT underthrow him some more...Its a crap shoot
