28. "RE: practice squad too much fro Tannehill" In response to In response to 13
Maybe Philbin shoulda told the real opponents to take it easy on Tanny too.
I am NOT shocked if this is at least partially true, but I think there's some more gold stories for us. There's some questionable as hell hunnid million-dollar QBs out there.
And I have no idea if just having a 'different energy' will do them any good.
I COULD slide my 'Mike Wallace got stuck with a shit QB who couldn't audible or throw deep shots to save his life' agenda back onto the scene right on time, but the god said chiiiiill.
