The home crowd still loves Ryan Tannehill Blue Tarik Cohen Jersey , even if lately he hasn't given Miami Dolphins fans much to cheer aboutirst daughter, Stella. They also have a 2-year-old son, Steel."We're settling in nicely to a family of four," Tannehill said after practice Wednesday. "I put a lot of time and energy and effort into what I do here. But whether it's good or bad, I go home and my little guy runs up to me — 'Daddy! Daddy!' — and it definitely warms your heart and puts a smile on your face."That's in contrast to the frowns Tannehill's play has elicited lately, and he knows it. He performed poorly in ugly losses the past two weeks, inspiring hopeful talk among his many detractors that 2018 will be the final season for the Dolphins' Tannehill era.To quiet the critics, he'll need a dramatic turnaround Sunday for Miami (3-2) against the Chicago Bears (3-1) and their No. 2-ranked defense. And he might not have a lot of help up front Blue Cody Parkey Jersey , with two linemen out for the season and left tackle Laremy Tunsil limited in practice after suffering a concussion in Sunday's loss at Cincinnati.Tannehill's offense has scored only one touchdown in each of the past two games. To go with the sputtering attack, he had three turnovers in the second half against the Bengals , with two of them returned for scores."I have to play better," Tannehill said. "I have to take care of the football. That's what it comes down to, eliminating the turnovers. You eliminate those and we'll be in good shape."Doing so with the offensive line so banged up will be a challenge, because a longstanding knock on Tannehill is that he's prone to poor decisions when facing pass-rush pressure.This year it has been a problem for Tannehill only recently, coach Adam Gase said."I thought we were good the first three weeks," Gase said. "He had some touchdown passes when he had pressure. We just had a couple of bad choices Blue Khalil Mack Jersey , this last game especially."Gase has been Tannehill's staunchest defender since becoming coach in 2016, and there's no sign of his loyalty wavering. The backup quarterbacks are journeyman Brock Osweiler and the unproven David Fales, so there has been no speculation Tannehill might be benched.But his salary cap hit in 2019 is $26.6 million, which is sure to influence the Dolphins' decision about whether to bring him back next year.There's still lots of time to salvage this strange season, which has the Dolphins tied for the AFC East lead even though they have been outgained by 472 yards. Tannehill said he can lead a turnaround by tempering his tendency to be too aggressive at times in his decisions."That's what got me in some trouble last week," he said. "It's hard, right? You want to stay on the attack. You want to be the aggressor. It's kind of anti-intuitive to come off the gas and have a big-picture mentality. That's something I have to work at and will get better at."After 82 career starts, Tannehill's still pledging to improve. The tendency to get reactionary in the midst of a crushing defeat can be overwhelming to some. The Bears lost a difficult and frustrating game to the Dolphins on Sunday: a game where they had their fair share of opportunities to come out on top. No one’s arguing that. What is notable is how they were able to stay afloat against Miami and what ultimately sunk their efforts for their fourth victory of the 2018 season. For one Youth Trey Burton Jersey , Mitchell Trubisky continues to look more and more like the franchise quarterback the Bear have believed he could become. Two great to solid performances are hardly a referendum on his entire professional career. But there’s no doubting Trubisky has taken immense strides in his last two starts against the Buccaneers and Dolphins. Trubisky’s latest outing in the Miami heat saw the 24-year-old attain a 138.9 passer rating when passing from a clean pocket, according to Pro Football Focus. That was by far the highest of any NFL quarterback on Sunday and bears out when you see how Trubisky excelled in the second half against the Dolphins. Give him time and he’ll make you pay.Notably, Trubisky was pressured on just 10 of his 36 drop backs. When under pressure, Trubisky was only 2-of-6 for 20 yards, with two scrambles and two sacks. An aspect of his developing game that he has to answer for when Chicago plays better defenses. Part of Trubisky’s stellar second half effort came in part thanks to the effort of Tarik Cohen, who had 88 of his 90 receiving yards come after the catch per PFF. That’s, uh ... very good. The Bears may want to have Cohen test defenses more vertically in the future, but he’s incredibly proficient at making defenders miss. That much we already knew. To the defensive side of the ball http://www.authenticschicagobears.com/cheap-kyle-fuller-jersey , at a glance it looks like Brock Osweiler shredded the Bears with 380 passing yards. Look closer and 280 of those passing yards came after the catch with the Bears defense missing 19 tackles as a team. Miami’s receivers and running backs did nearly all of the work for Osweiler. Chicago’s safety turned out to be the biggest culprits in this as Adrian Amos (5) and Eddie Jackson (3) had a rough day in the open field as the last lines of defense. Finally, the Bears’ lack of pass rush pressure on a banged-up offensive line was even worse than it looked. An inside linebacker in Danny Trevathan turned out to be Chicago’s best pass rusher with four hurries on 12 pass rushes. Seeing as how he hurt his ankle and also had heat as a factor, Mack was a non-factor against Osweiler with one hurry on 33 pass rushing snaps. Mack’s primary front seven partners in Leonard Floyd (1) and Akiem Hicks (1) didn’t fare any better.If the Bears are going to rebound against the class of pro football in the Patriots, they’ll need more of the same from Trubisky (in the second half) and a more dialed-in effort on the part of their defense this Sunday.
