The home crowd still loves Ryan Tannehill https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/James-Daniels-Jersey , even if lately he hasn’t given Miami Dolphins fans much to cheer about.Tannehill’s wife recently gave birth to the couple’s first 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, 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 Aaron Lynch Jersey ,” 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, 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 Kevin White Color Rush Jersey , 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. Next week I’ll start my annual 10 Most Important Bears’ series, but before I dive into the new version for 2019, I’ll look back at how I had the list in 2018." Latest NewsNotesLooking back at my 10 Most Important Chicago Bears of 2018New,57commentsNext week I’ll start my annual 10 Most Important Bears’ series, but before I dive into the new version for 2019, I’ll look back at how I had the list in 2018.CDTShare this storyShare this on FacebookShare this on TwitterShareAll sharing optionsShareAll sharing options for:Looking back at my 10 Most Important Chicago Bears of 2018TwitterFacebookRedditPocketFlipboardEmailPhoto by Mark Brown/Getty ImagesOne year ago the Chicago Bears didn’t have Khalil Mack, so the perennial All Pro was no where to be found on my 10 Most Important Bears of 2018. I think it’s safe to say that his addition to the team gave the roster some extra buzz and it put the NFL on notice that Chicago was a team to be taken seriously. No one knew how big of an impact he’d provide, but having a game changing edge rusher helped take the defense from good to great, and it helped get the Bears to the postseason for the first time in nearly a decade. I thought the Bears would be a nine win team before they swung the trade of the year, so I was expecting solid play all around out of the roster and from debuting head coach Matt Nagy https://www.thebearsfanshop.com/Riley-Ridley-Jersey , but when looking back at the Bears I had pegged as being most important, I can see why they had the success they did. This is my annual reminder not to skim through to the list thinking this is this year’s version of my 10. I always take a look back to see how my predictions panned out before penning the latest version. “Importance” is subjective, so your list may end up much different than my list, but this is my loose guideline I’ve been following since being handed this assignment back in 2009.So once again, this is how I had the 2018 Ten Most Important Bears. Don’t be the guy that skims to the list thinking this is what I’m picking this year.You can click on the number in front of each name to see the article from last year.10) Trey Burton - The U tight end is an important part of Matt Nagy’s system and Burton was brought in to be a big part of creating mismatches. 9) Jordan Howard - Even though Howard was among the league leaders in rushing attempts, some still felt he was underused. His numbers were down, but the overall running game was a big part of what the Bears did in 2018.8) Danny Trevathan - Chicago's D was better with Trevathan on the field in 2017, and in 2018 he played in all 16 games while going over 100 tackles. 7) Eddie Jackson - Last year I wrote that Eddie Jackson can be a star in 2018 and that’s exactly what he did in making the All-Pro team.6) Kyle Fuller - Fuller got his big payday after a good 2017, but then he went out and had an even better 2018 by leading the NFL in interceptions and passes defended and making his first All-Pro team.5) Charles Leno Jr. - Leno is a classic hard-hat lunch-pail kind of offensive lineman and the Bears are lucky to have him. 4) Akiem Hicks - I predicted a breakout year for Hicks a year ago, and he came through with his first Pro Bowl nod. He’s such a talented and cerebral player, but his leadership skills takes him over the top.3) Leonard Floyd - Before the Mack trade David Montgomery Jersey , Floyd was going to have to be the number one edge rusher, and while he didn’t have the year I thought he’d have, he still had his best year as a pro.2) Matt Nagy - Nagy was my top pick to be the Bears new head coach back when they fired John Fox, but I did not expect him to come in and change things so quickly in Chicago. 1) Mitchell Trubisky - It’s almost always the QB at the top spot of my 10 Most Important Bears list, and last year was no different. The Trubisky-Nagy marriage was a hit from day one and I can’t wait to see what happens in year two of the system.<hr class="p-entry-hr" id="kc6rN5">BreakingT is having a 20% off everything sale to celebrate the holiday weekend.
