And if he's struggling to get it then I gotta feel someone with less experience in Moore is learning it any better which makes tannenhill who knows system already the more logical choice for the starter the writing is on the wall....let the Tannenhill era begin!!
Despite being favorite Garrard wasn't quite grasping playbook

From Ben Volin's Twitter:
Source close to the #Dolphins QB competition shed an interesting light on David Garrard, who had been leading the battle after 2 weeks.
While Garrard looked the best of the three QBs, he also had some trouble grasping the playbook. When the Dolphins run their no-huddle, up-tempo offense in practice, Garrard would sometimes need QB coach Zac Taylor to call in the play two or three times, or have a teammate explain the play to him, before recalling the play and everyone's responsibility.

Honestly, him getting "hurt" is probably a blessing in disguise. Can a stopgap QB really propel this team more than Tannehill can? We've kept quite a few of the quarterbacks we've drafted in the past on the bench to learn behind wily veterans, and nothing productive ever came of it. Either you have it or you don't - so let's see if Tannehill has it now.
You made it sound like it was your opinion....since it was not you need a source right?

You know, in Hard Knocks, he looked a bit lost pre-play, but I had just chalked that up to it being one of the first couple of practices of training camp.
Obvi I do believe he's spiderman. He's that awesome lol....sorry guys will post link in future

In that case we need him playing DB too. Imagine the picks he'll pull down!!! If we could only draft the Hulk to lock down the right side of the o-line.....

Go get me a juice box!
.... and Philbin made him No.1 on the depth chart prior to the preseason game?
Not sure what Philbin was thinking there.

Perhaps he can learn the playbook from Chad.

That is because he is planning on faking an injury the first week of the season and go skiing. He doesn't really need to know the play book. Just enough to get on the opening day roster. Conspiracy theorists Unite!
