Week After week he seams to take sacks or turn the ball over at crucial times when it just cant happen. He needs to understand time, possession & score. You just cant take strip sacks late in games when your either winning or in the game! I dont see russell wilson doing that!
 
after that horrible pass to wallace when he was wide open inside the cheats 5 yard line, which was followed by the missed fg, to that ridiculous pick when we were driving in the 4th, i have no doubt whatsoever tannehenne is not the answer at qb. not now, not next week, not next month, just never. this is a great qb class coming out, theres a light at the end of the tunnel with the right gm.

That play was on wallace not on tannehill.. but yes tannehill has been playing bad.. He has been making critical mistakes late in games.

Interesting that you mention Russell Wilson, since both Wilson & Tannehill are tied for #1 in the league for fumbles (8) and fumbles lost (5)

That play was on Wallace. Tannehill correctly read the coverage and Wallace did not.

However, Ryan Tannehill had a bad game and the later interception was 100% on him. He sucked today, but that one specific play -- Mike Wallace sucked a lot more.
 
Part of being young qb. Look at Andy dalton, Drew Brees,Eli manning, and Flaco. It took 3 to 4 years before these guys took next step. He's showen he can be very good. Get him some protection up front and receivers who will fight for the ball.
 
I will agree that the timing of some of these poor plays are very alarming. Not sure yet if its a function of the OL (which I think the fumbles/sacks are) or something else... We will see in time.
 
Boomer Esiason did a piece on Dalton just weeks ago about his struggles. Dalton throws 5 touchdowns today. Guys, not everyone is Marino.
