He did pick Tannehill, but was ready to move on from him for Carr. Allegedly.
Philbin always kept Tannehill on a tight leash and most of us blamed him for stunting Tannehill's growth. That said, maybe its the other way around?
LMAO, Tannehill was not the issue with Philbin AT ALL. The OL was and still is, along with horrible drafting. Tannehill under Gase has a very good record when the OL resembles anything healthy. Carr is no better than Tannehill. The issues on this team through multiple head coaches and OC is they are limited in what they can call, not due to the QB, but due to protection. In 2016 after the Titans game when Tunsil slipped in the shower and Thomas and Turner had to play and were cut, the OL got healthy for a decent stint and Tannehill was the 2nd best passer in the league at balls traveling over 20 yards in the air. The OL issues on this team due mostly to injury has been a bad joke since 2012.
