So a worse QB will get Tennessee further in the playoffs? Dude c'mon. At this point in their respective careers there isn't a single thing that Alex does better than Tannehill. You seem to be way overrating one, way underrating the other or all of the above. In any case it's a bad take.

"Worse" is perspective. I should have been more clear. Tannehill is the more talented and explosive QB. But I think Alex is the more experienced one and would have more control over the game than Tannehill does. I also think Alex's ability to get the offense into the correct call will make Henry a larger impact as well. TN mostly runs a lot of shorter routes with its big receiver and is deadly with Henry catching screen passes at the right times. Alex fits perfectly into this type of offense.

Ryan Tannehill is clearly holding Derrick Henry back. 1540 and 2027 rushing yards in two seasons is unacceptable. Tennessee should definitely look to bring in Alex so that they can improve on their running game, which is clearly lacking with Tannehill in charge of the offense.

I really don't see that much of a difference myself. It's not like neither of them are really world beaters Both will be lower end in the 2nd tier of QBs or in 10-15 range. At the end of the day both will have similar successful careers with no rings but the ability to get close.

I never said Tanny holding Henry back. Just feel that Alex allows TN to do things more efficiently considering the type of offense they run.

You specifically said that Alex would allow Henry to make a larger impact. Is it possible to make a larger impact than being the best runner in football for 2 years and counting?

Cmon man just give it a rest. In no way shape or form would Alex be an upgrade over Tannehill.

It doesn't mean Henry was being held back. That's just putting words in that I didn't say. With Alex checking into the right plays, it makes Henry's job easier, it doesn't mean he would get 2000 yards. It just means he will be carrying the ball against more favorable defensive looks. He could get less carries and be more fresh but get more yards per carry.
