Miami Dolphins’ Bill Lazor majoring in Ryan Tannehill development

[FinfanInBuffalo]

Well you may be right because whatever one thinks of a raw college QB after 2 seasons, they should be sure of a 4 year college QB with 6 seasons who going back to an ACC Championship is batting 1 for 6, and over the last 1-4 postseasons, demonstrated that beating in-season opponents with an elite supporting group is meaningless when you're actually playing a better quality of opponents with that same supporting cast but either shooting offensive gooseeggs for the game, the second half, the 4th quarter and/or hemhorraging large first half leads when crunch time rears its ugly head.

So maybe there's no course that can teach clutch - while a basic teammates Heimlich Maneuver course should be mandatory. :idk:

Bottom Line: if you're sure about a still raw QB with a terrible OL and coaching after being 2 games in the red over 2 seasons, you should be all the more **** sure about a seasoned college QB who's been coming up empty when and where the rubber meets the road since his senior year (1-5) when it's "win or go home." :idk:

But what was his YPA?

A quarterback on Tannehill's level will receive a needed jump start if we simply run the ball 25-28 times, preferably more than that, along with greater percentage of snaps from under center and more play action. Lots of us were posting that prior to the season.

A hope the new general manager is wise and straight forward enough to insist on competition at the position, including frequent draft picks until you get it right. That would be a terrific jolt for Stephen Ross to hear. That picture of Tannehill celebrating alongside Ross on the field was as much of an indictment as anything I've seen. Tannehill seems shocked that he actually won a big game.

I think some competition would do Tannehill good. I'd draft a late round guy every year. Never know when you'll find another Brady. If not develope them for trades or the back up roll.

As for Ryan. Give the guy a decent line and running game and let's see how he does though i've got to admit those open looks at Wallace running deep are a must hit play.
QB 101 Funny he was able to hit some nice long passes to the left with Hartline and Gibson. Maybe flip the receivers every now and then.

I agree that a strong running game could do wonders for any QB, particularly Tannehill. However, 30 runs a game into a line without open lanes or push will quickly result in 3rd and longs. Also, most successful teams had timely running and a QB that could rise to the occasion when needed. At this point, our OL keeps us from either of those possibilities.

If he gets Tannehill out of the pocket more and literally keeps everything else the same he'll still come out on top. There's no reason not to get Tannehill moving more. He's mobile and throws well on the run. You can design fakes off of it to keep the defense honest.

Winning after December is a 400 level course.

We are still talking about late season games vs. bad opponents and winning in your own division which are 100 and 200 level courses that Lazor will be working on with Tannehill.

WV -- it sucks how much you want to see Ryan Tannehill flop.

All your negativity is spoken like a true boss.
