No.
No.
He is who he is; a solid starting QB who has better surrounding pieces and coaching staff here than in Miami.
I understand your point, however he's getting paid to be a top 10 quarterback....anything else will not have a good outcome.
I have faith in Tanny, but I would've rather seen us tag Tanny and sign Henry to a long term deal. If Tanny could duplicate next season like last season, then you give him the BIG MONEY.
He's getting paid to be a top-ten quarterback...right now. The dust hasn't settled with QB contacts yet.
And being top-ten does not mean elite. That's the top 1/3 of the league. Him being paid in the 7-10 range, depending on the metric being used, puts him exactly where he's been his entire career; good, not great.
The important thing he needs to do moving forward is take care of the ball. That was the biggest difference in his production last season versus his time in Miami.
I can't argue against your point.
The point I'm making is....if he performs like he did in Miami, the titans are finished. If he has a similar year as the past one, we will win the division.
He’s definitely #2. No question.
RB deals just don't work. Henry isn’t any different than the other big RB signees. Franchise twice, then trade and move on.
I’m a huge Henry fan, always have been...They made the right call signing Tannehill first though. Dude got us to the AFC Championship and clearly outplayed Mary and put the team on his back. Everyone stepped up their game, including Henry, because now defenses had to respect the pass. Say 1 year all you want, but you can’t put a price on chemistry. Ask the Eagles how they do without Nick Foles.................I do think think we sign Henry long term though, so no harm no foul. Tannehill’s contract also isn’t anything crazy once a few more deals for QB’s roll through. That’s just the way it goes, and QB is the most important position on the field.
Yeah but Henry tying up money isn't going to be nothing like the money tied up towards Tanny.
This team doesn't come close to where we went without Henry. I know you've heard that plenty of times. Henry still has 3 really good years left in him.
If Tanny showed what he displayed last season for 2 years in a row, then no doubt I would've rather picked him over Henry to get the long term contract.
I personally would've given Henry a 3 year deal and tagged Tanny.
In a year or two he won’t be in the top 10.
If he plays on the tag this year we are not signing him long term. Maybe we tag twice, but I expect this is his last year.
I think we tagged him to buy time until June to work out a deal. I fully expect that. Otherwise, get ready for a RB round 1 and a potential trade.
I doubt they reach a deal and I bet he plays on the tag. But I agree we draft his replacement this year.
This is flawed logic. Mahomes, Watson, Lamar, Prescott, Darnold, Allen, etc will all be making more than Tannehill soon enough.
I love this post
He was top 5 in most of the important QB categories last yr....completion %, yds per catch, overall qb rating.....so we should feel good that he isn’t getting paid top 5 money
I do feel good. My point is Tanny was our most important signing....his performance will dictate our success the next 3 seasons. We committed and we believe.
It doesn't matter a few million here or there....we committed big on Tanny, he's our quarterback....he decides the future of the titans the next 3 seasons.
AND... will reset the QB market big time. Tagging Tannehill with those upcoming salaries would drastically push his price tag up next year. Tagging Henry was the smarter financial move by far.
