Philbin didn't want Moore to throw the ball against the raiders, because Moore would have been just as effective at throwing the ball against them, even without the three years of coddling and first rep snaps that Tannehill has had.
Moore has shown a lot of class, after 3 years of preferential treatment, Tannehill should be able to play better than Moore. Usually, you can't watch Tannehill play and tell that he has had all of the extra reps. One game, against the last
place raiders, who have lost their last ten games, does not make Tannehill a great quarterback. I don't think Tannehill is better than Moore. Moore has not been given three years of first team reps, to be able to fairly compare him to Tannehill. Under Philbin, Moore won't get that chance. I would like Tannehill to bomb a few more games, so that we can get rid of Philbin, and get a real coach. That would be worth it too me. We had that chance sunday against the
last place raiders, Tannehill picked the wrong week to have his one out of 5 good games.
