We still couldn't throw the ball... very telling...I don't care what you homers think... we need help in the offseason at every position on this damn team.

Dallas Thomas won't be eating all week....Dumervil has his breakfast, lunch, and dinner
 
Its not as dire as youre making it out to be, but yea we have some holes for sure.
 
They should have challenged the secondary more, but it sucks that when they dialed one up turnstyle Thomas gave up free rushers and then when they actually connected on any the refs were there to take it away with the bogus call. The OL is a liability and until its resolved we won't be seeing shots downfield, that's just the deal.

I mean seriously, it just happened again. Thomas is an absolute atrocity at tackle. He can't handle good pass rushers. He is a puff of smoke. How can they go deep with that?
 
They couldn't exploit it because they can't. Alex Smith isn't capable of of doing that like other QBs are. And this offensive line appears to have collapsed. Looking a lot like last year.
 
Really hard to challenge secondary when you call hike and the Dallas Thomas is throwing look out blocks.
 
Didn't even attempt to test that banged up seocndsry. Speaks volumes. It's either gutless playcalling, or no faith in your QB to convert.
 
Been saying it when a bunch of people were worried about getting a big receiver early in the draft for the red zone. This team has a lot more pressing needs than that. They need guys who can be impactful all 100 yards of the field, not just inside the 20.

You're telling me not one shot all game?...not one? come on man...be real with yourself... you at least try to see if we can connect.
 
When you're taking 3 step drops out of SHOTGUN and a defender is already getting to you, you're not going to be able to take any shots downfield.

Meh. We played against a terrible, banged up, secondary last week that other QBs have torched deep. We hardly gave up any pressure vs. the Jests. Yet, we still could not manage to hit them down the field. Kyle Orton threw for about 4000 yards on like 15 throws against the Jests earlier this year. Even Teddy Bustwater hit them for a long TD pass. Hennehill simply can not throw the ball down the field. It is like how the Jests tried not to throw at all with Genos Myth vs us because Genos Myth can not throw at all. We do not try to throw down the field because Tannehill can not do it.

Keep making excuses though. We will keep winning 7, 8, or 9 games with Tannehill at QB so long as our defense is good. If our defense ever takes a step back, we would be a 4 win team with Tannehill.
 
Same with Jets last game. Since tannehill can't throw a deep ball they have all but given up. I comments them for playing to their guys strengths as a qb but swing passes and short routes won't win you games in the NFL.

The defense isn't good. 98 yd drive given up before halftime. 14-13 game and they have Baltimore go right down the field to go up 8.

They're a cheap suit just like the whole franchise has been for years.
