Since you where probably heartbroken about the firing in 2015. I’d expect that you missed week 7 where Tannehill lead the phins to 44 points with 4 tds. And we scored 41 in the first half he was 18/19 for 282 yards. But let’s try to make the rookie look better than Tannehill. And I expect if we tried the 2 nd half we would of put up 60 in that game.
Numbers don't quite reflect what occurred that game. Tannehill wasn't throwing dimes deep down the field of play. These were short, relatively easy throws turned into long TDs in what was one of the poorest defensive efforts I've seen in the NFL.
The 37 points the offense scored:
Matthews caught about an 8 yard slant and turned it up field for a 53 yard TD.
Landry caught a 12 yard hook that should have been an easy stop around midfield but somehow turned it into a punt return on Houston for a 50 yard TD.
Miller took a screen pass 54 yards for a TD.
Landry caught a short pass and got into the endzone for a 10 yard TD.
Miller had an 85 yard TD run.
53 yard FG
Out of the 4 TD passes Tannehill threw totaling 167 yards they combined for around 20 air yards beyond the LOS. The TD passes were all on plays most QBs make multiple times on Sundays. This was truly a case of Houston's lack of effort on defense.
I seriously don't think the Jets are going to be giving the same lackluster effort the Texans did that game. Although it would be nice if they did!
Not to discredit Tannehill's play b/c he was extremely sharp in his placement of the football. As accurate as I've seen him throw. In fact his one incompletion was Sims that should have been an easy catch.
