Always enjoy your posts and insight. You seem to be a very big Tannehill advocate and knowledgeable on the player himself. Which current NFL Team's Offensive Scheme would benefit Tannehill's current tools and skill set?
Question for Hoohoops!

I'm not the man you're looking for, but I've been saying since Gary Kubiak got fired that Ryan Tannehill would be a great fit for his offense.
I also think Mike or Kyle Shanahan would be a good fit for him, even though they are both super toxic after the Washington situation. I have absolutely no doubts about the report that Shanahan wanted Tannehill and not Griffin. Ryan Tannehill is simply a better fit for what they've traditionally liked to do.

I am not a fan of any of them, who are the QBs these guys have developed? Shanahan's only real success came w/ Elway and he did help Elway(both early and late in his career) w/o a doubt but Elway was an all time talent. who else did any of those 3 develop? Griese, Cutler, RG III, Schaub, Plummer, etc... Not a great track record
Ryan Tannehill is a fit in the WCO. His mobility, ability to throw accurately on the run, compact, quick delivery and accuracy in the short and intermediate range is made for the WCO. And yes contrary to what all the haters around here say he is accurate. His issues with the deep ball obviously don't make him a fit for a vertical passing offense, the same offense designed by Don Coryell and the ones employed by Rob Chudzinski, Norv Turner and a few others.
Also, his deep ball percentage would look much better if he had a receiver that would attack the ball instead of trying to basket catch it making it easier for the DBs to play through the ball and slap it out of the receiver hands. No QB throws a perfect deep pass every time where he hits the WR in stride...they don't even hit that half the time. The deep pass is a low percentage pass, always has been, always will be and there isn't a QB that hits a WR deep in stride consistently in the league...never has been, never will be. WRs need to make plays for their QBs.

that is a good question...i think he'd be murder in gary kubiaks for sure...especially if we worked vertical crossers on play action and misdirection...if tannehills straight vertical down the sideline which limits the margin for error cause of the boundary on one side and the possibility of the safety coming over from the inside is gonna always be inconsistent then work the more vertical crossers on misdirection and work more to the middle of the field vertical on deep posts etc where he has more field to work with...let wallace invade safety cushion and be harder to bracket
tannehills already damn good off play action...but in order to run the wide stretch stuff etc we got to get the personnel on the oline first and foremost to execute it...athletically tannehills perfect for the system
as for shanahan i have concerns that he would run tannehill to too much contact...
i'd have to think about it more for some others

Never understood why we didn't do that more. There's so much less margin of error on those deep sideline passes and if tannys struggling with it than they should of worked the deep middle of the field more. I can't remember which game it was last year, maybe zona, where we went to that part and it worked. I think kubiak would be great too but I'm not sure if he's gonna be available or take a year off.

We ran like one of those, against the Chargers, I think, and it was a big gain for Wallace. We also ran an intermediate crosser off of PA against the Colts and Wallace picked up like twenty yards. Wide open.
Sherman was part of the problem, even if I still think he's being scapegoated for the most part.

that catch against san diego isn't quite as vertical as i'm talking about...that's more an intermediate in cutter and catch and run off pa but i would like to see more the vertical crosser stuff we saw with hartline last year vs zona for the long catch and td but with a much more scary guy running the crosser and invading the safety in mike wallace...
if we could work that off heavy wide stretch misdirection he'd be running free in the deep middle of the field a lot i can tell ya that...get a move athlete like tannehill to sell the hard run to that side and come off it set his feet and rip it...they get this oline fixed there's a whole lot of things we can do with this qb and a good offense i know that much
You prefer amaro or Ebron?

i really like em both...like em more than any big body wr i know that so if we were gonna add a skill position player with our top pick i would lean tight end off the class talent i see...i have some concerns with some of those big body wrs games
but fixing the oline and upgrading the athleticism in that unit is absolutely paramount

I always think of the Hartline TD catch against Arizona last year. Busted coverage but the concept of the play was good. Honestly I thought the offense last year was good just needed a weapon or two. We seemed like a different offense this year.
The other question to ask is which system works for our receivers. The Dolphins have more trouble getting people open on the short and intermediate routes that any team I watch. Tannehill has to throw into tight windows regularly.

That's because we line 'em up in the same spots and run predictable plays. Don't believe me, ask Bills, Saints, or other defenders who bragged after games that they knew exactly what we were running based on formation tendencies.
