FireChan Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 and it was TNF on the road - not an excuse but many teams have their worst performance of the year in that situation. Still, they didn't play well and deserved to lose. But the "rivalry" has been tilted Buffalo's way since Tannehill got there. Tilted, yeah. By one game.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Tanehill can continue his mastery of throwing thirty 3-yard passes every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 Tanehill can continue his mastery of throwing thirty 3-yard passes every game.Maybe this is why Dennis Hickey took Mike Wallace out to dinner this week.he was gently explaining to him that with this extension, Wallace would never see the deep ball again.

FireChan Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Also by two games How? 2012 - 1-1 2013 - 2-0 2014 - 1-1 If the Fins win one more, the Bills have to have lost one more. Two game swing, but one game going the other way makes us even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, it's far from "domination," especially considering the Dolphins' issues. Edited February 10, 2015 by FireChan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K D Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Wide margin? We won one of those on a last second strip sack. Don't have the expectations you do for our "new offense." Some of those responsible are still on this team. By wide margin I mean we have outscored them 80-53 in those 4 games. I like our odds vs Tannehill and the Fins Edited February 10, 2015 by kdiggz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalScotts Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 another alex smith, andy dalton, jay cutler extension.....dont really want to but what other choice do they have?

Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 @theScore: The Dolphins and Ryan Tannehill are reportedly discussing a 7-year, $105-million extension. http://t.co/QYyrZBFyCmhttp://t.co/mPemoPyvvE Dang hoping he was going to come in with Ritchie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) He looked to be making some siginificant improvements last year, so I don't blame them for extending. Career: Rating: 76, 81, 92 QBR: 50, 45, 59 Last season (Sep, Oct, Nov, Dec): Rating: 81, 94, 106, 91 Games 1-8 vs 9-16: 90 vs 94 He's generally on the right path, it appears... so good for him/them. I just hope we still kick his ass Edited February 10, 2015 by Dorkington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Lot of people sleeping on Tannenhill. Mike Wallace left a lot of plays out there even though his overall stats looked ok. He has all the tools and can still improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Just to be clear I do not dislike Tannehill. I think that he is the epitome of average and you will never win a title with him. You have no choice but to sign him if you are Miami because you are in much better shape than a lot of other teams (including the Bills). It is one of those damned if you, damned if you don't situations. The point that I was making is that I would rather be searching for my guy while having a stopgap like Orton on a $5M deal instead of getting slightly better play from the QB for $15M a year. At the same time you cannot fault those teams for paying those 2 (and some others). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddog69 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I'd be looking to sign him to a shorter deal. Maybe 3yrs max value 45m if he his all incentives. A $100m contract for Tannehill at this point would scare the crap out of me if I were the Dolphins FO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could go out next season and throw 40 TD's. I wouldn't be surprised. What are you searching for with a stopgap like Orton? In reality, your odds of getting an average QB are the highest over a franchise guy or a HoFer. I'd like to see the numbers on how successful constantly "searching" is. Would you rather be the Bengals or the Raiders? Build a D around them and make a run. Tanny on the Bills last season and we make it to at least the first round of the playoffs.

That's kind of my point. That isn't the goal. The Bills are going to have to get lucky to find their guy. They are going to need to get an RG or SB with natural talent that made them top 2 picks and bring it out of them. You are not content with an Orton so you are still looking for your guy. He is just filling in while a team like Miami is building around Tannehill now. Do you think that you can win a Super Bowl with Ryan Tannehill?? I don't and that is the goal. I think that the guy is pretty good. His ceiling to me is Alex Smith which MAY in a perfect scenario allow you to compete for a championship. There are others in that boat (Cincy, Arizona, Chicago, etc...). They get decent QB play that can have them in the playoffs but I am not sure that those guys can win. It's a tough situation to be in because there are so few top end, franchise guys out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
