Tannehill was better than Brady last season. I don't see him as an upgrade other than being a bigger name that will sell a shit load of jerseys.

Brady had a bottom 5 OL and the worst skill positions of any QB. Tannehill is fools gold.
We could go round and round about whether Tanny is fool’s gold and Brady sucked (relatively speaking) because of everyone other than Brady. It doesn’t matter because Brady is not going to be a Titan.

I think Brady could do well here, he's a master of the short passing game and I think Brown and Davis could take advantage of that with their YAC ability. Plus he would bring so much experience and be able to teach this team a lot about winning.
Why I would be hesitant, is that you're going to get one, maybe two years from Brady? and then transition to another QB. Where, if Tannehill is the real deal, he could provide some consistency at the position for the next 5-6 seasons. Having a QB with that much knowledge and experience in a system is incredibly huge and could let the offense really grow into something special, beyond just pounding it with Henry and play action.

i understand why titan fans are high on tannehill right now but they should be trying to move up in this years draft to snag tua.

Hey! You suck!
No way that will happen. Any team in that spot needs a QB and won't give that up.

Doubt it. Teams are willing to take some pretty good gambles when it comes to finding a QB. Just about any other position I could see it.

The metro council voted in favor of the plan with 6 no votes. The now mayor was one of the no votes. He’s going to find a way to kill it.

Hey! You suck!
When your city is on the brink of being broke you don't need to be building soccer stadiums for someone else to make money.
Nashville was just about to be taken over by the State, the only reason they didn't was to see if Cooper could solve it.
Also with Nashville's charter the mayor has the bulk of the power, the Council is basically a dog and pony show.

Nashville SC revised their proposal to fully fund the stadium, provide an additional $19 million, forego the $35 million lease payment from Metro and revise give up some of the land so that Super Cooper can expand the racetrack one day.
You got a link to a story about the city being broke and the state "taking over?"
As an outsider in KY all we ever hear is how Nashville is growing by leaps and bounds and youd think that would expand the tax base
(Not saying what you said isnt accurate I'd just be curious to read more..)

It's true, they've mentioned it on local news a few times recently. I think that it's at least as much politically motivated as it is financially. But we can't really have that conversation on HF.

It's not political, the city has had it happen in the past. Briley had the city headed for a 40+ million shortfall, which cities are not allowed to do.
They've done things like that to other cities as well. Shelbyville had a horrible water treatment facility so they stepped in and told the city to build one or they would take the city over and do it for them. City decided to build a water plant.

If this were actually true I’m sure we would see plenty of discussion in spots other than local news. I don’t remember seeing anything in the NBJ. Not saying it couldn’t be true but all of us would probably know about it if it were.
And my reference is to the soccer club being the driver here, or backing out of that deal being the savior. Not that the city has some financial problems.
Yep. I see reference to the super sweet heart deals given out to both Amazon and Alliance-Bernstein. Nothing on MLS unless I overlooked it. Now if Cooper wants to pile on and make this all about MLS it would make sense. He never wanted it and was always in the race track camp.

I look forward to all the nuanced opinions from all the non-Davidson County residents on the subject and especially the non-Davidson County taxpayers who cross our border to enjoy Preds games at the Davidson County taxpayer funded Bridgestone Arena. (This is not political BTW).
