[h=3]7. Ryan Tannehill, Miami Dolphins[/h] Miami’s rejuvenation during its six-game win streak has been largely on the shoulders of running back Jay Ajayi, but in the past three weeks Tannehill has produced two of the best games of his career and thrown some spectacular passes. This week he posted a passer rating of 130.6, completing 66.7 percent of his passes and throwing three scores without being intercepted. When kept clean in the pocket, his passer rating was 150.3, and the 49ers were only able to generate pressure on eight of his 34 dropbacks.

This "largely on the back of Jay Ajayi" tagline is getting downright inaccurate. Sure he gave us a massive spark and deserves tons of credit, but in half of the 6 wins it's really come down to the passing game to get it done. Still nice knowing we have Ajayi down the stretch, especially if the line gets healthy. He could be a huge factor in December.
 
RT is playing great, but it has been a team effort. Kick return's for TDs, Interception and fumbles for TDs. All have played a part when we needed them.
Someone has stepped up in each game to make the plays.
Kap played a monster game yesterday, and we still came out on top. This team is for real.
 
The back of Ajayi huh? What Ajayi's emergence has done is keep defenses honest. They now have to pick if they will defend the run or the pass and sometimes that changes mid game. What amazes me though is how teams stack the box on the Fins even though they have so much talent at WR. Sure, go nuts, stop Ajayi because you dont want 200 yards dropped on you. That just lets Tannehill pick you apart. Drop 7 into coverage, ok, now Ajayi is going to make you pay. It feels so good to be able to watch the Fins and know the offense has enough talent and balance to adjust with a coaching staff that will adjust.

Also, pressure on only 8 out of 34 dropbacks with 60% of the OL out? Holy crap, thats pretty darn good.
