I have a few thoughts here…
1. This staff is not coming back: The way that Campbell and Lazor talk about Tannehill and the opinion that Tannenbaum and the FO has based on Mando's insight, they have no chance to get the job. I am shocked actually that they are not trying to acquiesce to what the FO wants in order to try to get the job at the end of the year. Don't they know satisfying Tannenbaum gives them a better chance of getting the gig?
2. The FO is overrating how good RT is right now compared to who they would take him over.
3. However, they are right and has always been my point, that it is easier said then done trying to replace the kid.[/B]
4. The next coach is going to be an offensive guy that will be expected to tailor a system to fit RT.
5. The team is smart to state that if they are blown away with a QB prospect they will run to him. However, they are not actively looking to replace RT. I think that is a perfect mix.
6. ***I have said this all day today and for the past few weeks….Tannehill can make all of this stuff go away by playing well the rest of the year. He needs to make it work right now. Mando is right that it seems like RT has checked out on the offensive system based on his quotes. However, that is BS on his part. He needs to make things work on his end. This organization has not made a line to fit him…that is true. However, they have fired coaches, brought in new receivers and given him a big contract to back him. It is time he simply progresses. I am not calling for him to be a Pro Bowler…just show you are getting better. If he does, these questions go away.
