'Playbook' QB or not QB?

Thats a BS excuse. One Offense or Fifty Offense's. He has Thomas open in the flats. He does this all the time. He refuses to check down and always wait for plays to progress.

Tanny never takes the check down or easy throw always makes things more difficult

C'mon, you guys are funny. And if he were to check down more often than he'd catch flack for not going thru his progressions properly. Let's think with a little objectivity here.

That 3rd and 1 play against KC was infuriating. I think it was a bad play call anyway but still a horrible play by Tannehill.

Sacks are drive killers. Maybe RT would catch more slack for waiting if he completed more big plays downfield......but since he isn't......he better start taking what is there.

Not on 3rd and 1. You aren't funny and you aren't truthful.

I wasn't referring to one single play. Carry on, tough guy.

This is certainly a problem. The deep ball in OT against the Jets when we were already in field goal range for the win. The audible from a run to a pass at the end of the Bills game that resulted in a sack-fumble. He purposely takes low percentage plays trying to be the hero, which is fine, but you actually need to pull it off. Otherwise you're just the goat.

He shows how Sims/Thomas are both open in the flat with room to run. Instead, Tanny's eyes are fixated down field on Wallace in congested coverage. Tannehill freezes up once he realizes he can't throw to Wallace and takes a bad sack after what was a clean pocket.

Thanks. That's an awful play by Tannehill.
