A Closer Look At Tannehill vs Jax

[So Be]

We all know that RT was 16 of 29 for 196, 1 TD and 1 pick, an about average game.

However, there were 2 batted passes, 1 throwaway, and 1 hit as he threw. So, he was 16 of 25 on aimed passes. Add the 2 drops and his accuracy was 18 of 25.

He went 5 of 5 behind the line, 8 o 11 from 0-9 yards, 1 of 4 from 10-19 yards, and 2 of 5 over 20 yards.

Here's a twist. With no pressure, he was 12 of 21 for 92 yards a 4.4 avg, 1 TD and 1 pick, a QBR of 64. With pressure, he was 4 of 8 for 104, a 13 avg and QBR of 95.

Interesting to look a little deeper into stats.

You can't take out passes, batted down passes are a thing that have been consistent will Thill throughout both college and NFL, while not solely his fault, there is definately something there that he needs to work on, it's not like he's a 5' 10" QB. Every QB has drops. The stats are what they are.

It was an average game, with one really great play imo.

I like taking out the throwaways, batted passes, and hit while throwing as there was no chance of a completion. I also like adding drops to accuracy, as they were accurate. I think it gives a better picture of what a QB did but, to each their own. Agree on an average game with one really great play.

It depends on what you are looking for. If are looking at the team as a whole then you are correct you can't isolate his throws. But if you are looking at how the QB performed then of course you have to look at drops and other factors. Peyton Manning could be on a team whose WRs drop nine out of every 10 passes and he is going to look like a horrible QB if you don't isolate the problems.

Agree, and this is not any kind of spin on stats, as throwaways, batted passes, drops, etc are not opinion but fact.

Would this mean that he had a good game or an above average game with those stat adjustments

Maybe a bit above average, nothing more. There was still only 1 TD and 1 pick, along with a lot for short passes, with 5 of 5 behind the line.

uncharacteristically, Tannehill wasn't very sharp in the red zone against Jacksonville. had the INT and also missed the open receiver (forgot who it was) for an easy TD on the final FG drive.

The Int was batted pass, so if you are removing them you remove a pick from his rating.
I thought there were 3 batted passes.

Not sure why you would remove batted passes and called them aimed passes. The ball went were RT17 aimed it. He just didn't account for linemen.

That was Clay...tough pass for Tannehill moving to his left, under pressure, but that is a pass he normally makes and it wasn't even close.

It looked like he was throwing it away because Clay got open right after he launched it under pressure. Hopefully that wasn't intentionally thrown to Clay because it was way off

yeah clay uncovered late...

I agree with your approach. It is a better way to judge performance.

 

[malzj]

How do you factor in decision making? Maybe he had guys that were open when he threw the pass.

In a game where he was getting a lot of quick pressure, he was fine. Not great but not terrible. The difference is that they are letting him run so he is able to contribute even when the OL can't pass block.
