Tannehill averaged only 29.9 passing attempts per game in 2016, which ranked a lowly 29th. That led to an equally disastrous average of 230.4 yards per game through the air, a drop of 32.6 yards from 2015.
When Russel Wilson does it, he's elite, when its Tannehill, its a limited and managed workload...
Russell Wilson's career avg attempts per game: 29.52
Russell Wilson's avg yards per game: 231
He improved as a deep-ball thrower but still ranked only ninth with an adjusted completion percentage of 47.4 on throws that traveled 20 yards or more through the air, according to Pro Football Focus. That percentage is inflated by his lack of attempts too.
