 Pouncey:Tannehill is better than Luck & RG3, more like Brady
Quote: Posted by Michael David Smith on November 1, 2012, 11:34 AM EDT
...
“I think he’s the best rookie quarterback in the NFL right now,” Pouncey said of Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill, via FoxSportsFlorida.com.
...
Tannehill’s a smart quarterback. I think he’s going to be one of those elite guys like Tom Brady when it comes said and done. Just his composure. His leadership in the huddle right now is just phenomenal. . . . I do see Tom, and the way he coordinates and runs his offense is the same as Tannehill does.”

 Re: Team8 Tannehill is better than Luck and RG3, more like Brady
I'll never predict a QB to be as good as Brady or Manning. Even a guy like Luck.
Doesn't mean I think it's impossible, but I think you have to remember to keep things in context and realize just how great Brady is. I love the confidence in Ryan, but basically calling him a future top 5 QB of all time is over the top.

I thought the same thing about him. He has more of the calmness that comes with being elite. He's just smart and accurate.

He wears a Dolphins uniform, therefore he is the best QB in the NFL

I don't see nothing wrong with it. That's his teammate and he is not going to say he will be the next Alex Smith. When LeBron first played in the NBA many new right off of the bat that he was special.
Tannehill looks like a special player. I think that is what really matters. No one will be Jordan, Brady, or whoever. The point is that they are special talents, and Tannehill is fitting the mold.

I like and trust the comments of the best center in the league.

That is a pretty bold statement by Pouncey. While I don't think he's an elite quarterback yet, I do think statements like this are a testament to the change that has occured in Miami. We now finally have a quarterback under center that everyone believes in and that is a good feeling. Having the faith of your fellow teammates is huge for a rookie quarterback, and Tannehill has that. It's things like this that make me believe our search is over and this kid will be leading this team for a long time.

Not me. Funny thing is, he's not even that great of a DB.

Actually he was already proven guilty on a few charges, and got off on a couple more..... So now he just needed a good wholesome franchise to help turn his life and career around. Unfortunately he is not going to have that opportunity as he joined a tarnished franchise of cheaters, so he sucks as a DB, and he is a trouble maker....
