Tannehill separated himself from Moore two years ago as a rookie. Two OC's have decided that Tannehill is their starter and multiple OC's have determined that Moore is nothing but a backup.
Never said Tannehill was all that but the whole NFL sees Moore as a backup and Im sure many of their Gm's have expensive prescription glasses.
Whats funny is people that think Moore should start when only certain fans have that opinion, nobody in the NFL shares that opinion and that's why he is our backup.
There is really also only a few who think that Moore should outright start. You act like it is a boat load of fans. But the problem is really not Moore. The problem is that Tannehill has not shown yet that he could be the franchise QB. Anytime you have a starting QB not perform to expectation or at least has shown flashes of greatness you will have a QB controversy. The separation between starter and backup is not there.
The support you see is not so much because people think he is such a great QB but they have not seen in Tannehill the guy who is going to lead us in the future.
Moore is what he is. He is an undrafted QB. There were never expectations for him to be a starter. But he did his job well enough that except in 2010 he performed when called upon on.
In 2012 Sherman Ireland made the decision to draft and go with Tannehill. A QB who had 15 college start at that position after losing out two years consecutively at the QB job. I personally felt that unless you are the NY Jets (Mbuttfumble) you don't draft a QB that high who has such little experience.
Like I said: you can say whatever you want to about Moore and you can mock and diss him but simply the fact that going into his third year Tannehill has not proven to be deserving of the title franchise QB.
