Well cap If you 'Can't tell me what the problem is' HOW are you so sure it ISN'T the QB?
I hope you're right. I hope Campbell IMMEDIATELY goes away from the offensive system we are currently TRYING to run and Tannehill looks all world.
Thats yet to be seen, but I've seen enough to be of the opinion that he is just NOT comfortable in the pocket even when he DOES have protection NOR does he have the accuracy past 15-20 yards to regularly stretch the field with the passing game. And that is two strikes against an NFL QB.
