Bruce Arians likes play action in his offense, so does Arthur Smith? I see no negatives about this fact.
https://www.espn.in/nfl/stats/team?seasontype=2&view=turnovers According to that, the Titans' turnover margin per game is currently 2.35 standard deviations above the league average. Don't expect that to continue for long.
Tanny has better numbers than Mahomes the last 14 games. check em for yourself. you ain’t doing that if you ain’t damn good. Mahomes is considered the gold standard at qb these days tannys numbers are better even. kids ballin
Tannehill's overall numbers are certainly good, but I would encourage folks to continue to pay attention. So far this year he's making his living with early-down passing and play-action, which suggests his performance continues to be a function of opposing defenses' focus on the Titans' run game. His interception rate this year is also 0.8%, which is well below his career mark of 2.5%. Does that mean his performance will decline? Not necessarily, but when we're dealing with such small sample sizes, it's prudent to consider contributions to the data that may not be sustainable.
It is so true. A team would have had to go full Lamar Jackson Ravens to give Tebow a chance in the NFL. Which, honestly, though I am not a fan of Tebow as a quarterback, I wish a team did, because that would have been interesting to see if it would work. So far it is working for the Ravens, but we will see if this lasts.
Talk about the bias here... NFL update, shows Deshaun Watson’s touchdown pass for a TD, but hasn’t shown a single Titans touchdown. Haters gonna hate
Tannehill with an incredible last drive. Nerves of steel on some of those tight window passes. Can't be fun throwing the ball when JJ Watt is incoming and your starting LT is injured.
When he’s got an incredible supporting cast, he can make plays. That wasn’t going to happen in Miami for the foreseeable future. Good for both teams
Wow what a game. One of the best games so far this season. Anyway, weekly update on Tannehill stats: his 2020 rating is now 113.55, and that's after 173 passing attempts so it has some meaning now, and the probability he's "the same QB" as in Miami is 0.0128%. If this continues we won't need many more games to end the debate from a pure statistical point of view because it's going to become near impossible to bring that number up to 5%. I'll point out though that week 9 will be interesting because that's where I'll take into account the 2020 league average and standard deviation for the first time (I'm waiting half a season before doing that so that the stats stabilize), and those are both at record levels right now for post-1978. Regardless, by week 9 this little statistical significance game might be over lol.
I've never done a statistical analysis of MVP winners so I can't say from just a pure stats point of view. Best thing to do if you don't have that is to look at Vegas odds. Right now Tannehill is way down the list with Wilson and Rodgers the clear favorites, but it's a no-brainer that if Tannehill continues this pace he'll vault way up that list. Whether he can beat out Wilson and/or Rodgers, not sure. Those guys are also on a torrid pace: https://www.oddsshark.com/nfl/mvp-odds
Titans defense has been one of the worst in the league. Their kicker still sucks. And damn near lost the game for them. But back to Tannehill. What was really impressive is Henry wasnt even on that last drive to tie the game. Tannehill with great clock management and really great tight window throw with Watt breathing down his neck. They need Lewan back asap.
Stop with the BS qualifications. He doesn’t have an incredible supporting cast. with a good supporting cast, he has been excellent.
He’s got an elite OL, one of the best running games in the NFL and good playmakers. We saw how he played when he didn’t have those things. Showed flashes but makes bad decisions when things are breaking down consistently.
The OL is far from elite. This was Henry’s first good game of the year. He was averaging 3.7 YPC coming into this game. AJ Brown missed 2 games. Cory Davis has missed the last two. you are over estimating what he has in Tennessee and radically under estimating how bad it was in Miami. he couldn’t rescue a crap team in Miami. He is playing elite QB with a very good team in Tennessee.
If this keeps up you'll be proven right. We're not there yet though. It's looking extremely likely from a pure statistical point of view that Tannehill is at minimum an above average QB who was held back in Miami, but we're still a long ways off from him being the next Drew Brees (in Tennessee). But yes, the trajectory so far is basically what you predicted. Only 5 games though.
The difference is that Jackson, while not Marino, is an adequate enough passer. Tebow couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.
