If Tanny's washed, he's washed. I don't think he's there yet, though, so shouldn't be an issue. Unless you're just saying we'll be limited by how good our QB is, which is always true. If Tanny just isn't a fit for the offensive scheme, like, at all, then you have to wonder why the team would hire such a bad fit at OC when they aren't fully committing to a rebuild. That would just be a bad hire. And Henry, I don't see how a very good RB would hinder an offense at all. The only way I could see him hindering the team is monetarily. Henry needs to remain a feature of the offense, and I don't think that's going away any time soon, but we can absolutely make good use of Henry without him being the entire offense. Especially since he's probably already started to decline physically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hire someone outside the building, chances decrease. I think the OC hire will be a good indicator of where they view Tannehill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the very good running back has to be taken out on passing downs/3rd downs, because he’s virtually useless as a pass catcher or pass protector. The franchise, even back to Arthur Smith, have routinely taken Henry out in crucial moments if they have to pass. Tell me another elite back that this happens to?

Tell me another elite back that this happens to? he had over 400 yards receiving this year. he’s not a great pass protector but he’s steadily improved as a receiving option out of the backfield, and could likely play more 3rd downs if we had an offensive line that didn’t need a RB in to block every single play. also, it’s extremely easy to find elite running backs who weren’t good pass protectors. adrian peterson got a ton of flack for his struggles in pass pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willis for sure gonna be given a chance to show if he improved or not, Dobbs proven to be a good backup. Tannehill might be just a necessity to keep from bottoming out. Sigh.....likely running it back with same group..lol Well if so lets go draft Quentin Johnston at 11 cause we need playmaking. Burks Johnston Phillips is a perfect trio of young WRs to work with or LT and get Rice in the 2nd.. Hell LT and trade back up and snag Zay flowers cause that dude is what we really need on this team. Speed and shiftiness I kinda want the bears to trade Justin fields to us and watch us run for 10000000 yards haha. Idk fun off season for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twotonebluenation Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 What is nice, is we really have options with our QB situation. No need to press. Be open to all avenues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanRedd Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 3 hours ago, KingTitan said: Also something to keep in mind. We saw what Tannehill looked like without a heavy play action scheme. If we bring in an OC that doesn't fit that mold, are we sure Tannehill is the guy to keep? Are we going to hire an OC that fits Tannehill or one to modernize the offense? That was 2 dominant Tackles & 2 dogs at WR. RT BEST days are over too many holes to be addressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Lewan only started 5 games in 2020 and Tannehill was still great in 2020 when he was standing up. Pass pro was turrible in the playoffs. Not saying we'll ever see a season like that again out of Tannehill, but we're not getting a better QB than him without a trade involved.

TitanSS Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 The topic of this thread is asking the wrong question. It's not should we keep Tannehill. It's what are our options for replacing him. We all know we should replace him at some point in the next couple of years, he's going to be 35 soon, but is there a viable option for the upcoming season? We should try to get a franchise QB as soon as possible, but it's just not that easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
