I really did not expect him to do this well after his last season, but glad I was wrong. Congrats to Ryan.

Good for him. Now if they'll only get him some help. He's failed to lead them to the playoffs because everything around him sucks arse.

He wasn't the problem his senior year at QB. It was Sherman's brain dead play calling all the way.

Wonder why the numbers don't match up.

I love it. He completely covers for whatever might or might not happen with JFF.

JFF was the titty sprinkles in college, but I knew that Tanny would be the better NFL QB of the two.

dude has had NO offensive help on his side of the ball. even as there have been a few above average WR, no run game. i'm glad they're giving him a chance.

i got to see him in HS at Big Spring and only one A&M game when they raped RGIII his heisman season, but i always really liked him.

I only saw him play WR in person, but he's all class and a great representative of A&M

Mike Wallace (stud WR1 in with Big Ben) and Landry (solid rookie).

This year they ditched Wallace and added Still, Parker, and Jordan Cameron. He's got some weapons. Now if they can just protect him.

He still takes some bad sacks, he did it at A&M too. His line isn't good but it's not all on them. Overall he improved a lot last year though. If their run game remains legit I think it will help him a ton as he's always been great in the play action.

They really improved in this department last year as well. Miller is a legit back and went for like 1100 yards at 5 YPC. I think that was a big reason for Tannehill's improvement and hopefully they can keep making strides there

Is Philbin still the head coach? Then they still suck.




Good for tannehill though. His consol girl wife hit the life jackpot.

Not gonna lie, running Shermans system really helped prepare him into a really nice quarterback. He had a really good season last year and it paid off nicely.

Article I read said that the 77.7 was just the money he got in the extension the other 18 or 19 was part of the original contract.
