PFF - Ryan Tannehill Buffalo game

Ryan Tannehill, QB:+3.0
Breakdown: Tannehill had some off-target passes during the game, but his performance was overwhelmingly positive. He completed seven of eight passes when under pressure, including his lone touchdown on a fade route to Mike Wallace. His receivers let him down at times with four dropped passes, including a perfectly thrown deep ball to Brian Hartline inside the 10-yard line with less than two minutes to play that could have helped stage a comeback. However, the incomplete passes seemed to always come at the wrong time as the Dolphins struggled to sustain drives for much of the game.


Signature Stats: Tannehill had an overall Accuracy Percentage of 76.1%, and was accurate on 100% of his passes when under pressure.


Have at it Finheaven!

What's going on here??? The PFF article I see on the site right now reads like this:

Ryan Tannehill, QB:+1.0
Breakdown: Tannehill had some off-target passes during the game, but his performance was generally positive. He completed seven of eight passes when under pressure, including his lone touchdown on a fade route toMike Wallace. His receivers let him down at times with five dropped passes, including a perfectly thrown deep ball to Brian Hartline inside the 10-yard line with less than two minutes to play that could have helped stage a comeback. However, the incomplete passes seemed to always come at the wrong time as the Dolphins struggled to sustain drives for much of the game.
Signature Stats: Tannehill had an overall Accuracy Percentage of 78.3%, and was accurate on 100% of his passes when under pressure.

They must've revised their rating. Sober second thoughts? :idk:

I'm not happy with the QB's play yesterday but it wasn't nearly as bad as people here are making it out to be.

He needed to be better, but as PFF points out, he had several catchable balls get flat dropped, and still completed over 60% of his passes. He didn't make any horrible head-scratching decisions, unless you count the garbage time desperation play with 20 seconds on the clock. Yes, he needs improvement, but step back from the damn ledge.

Is PFF's grade too generous? Yes. Way too generous. Is Finheaven acting like he's TERRIBLE way too harsh? Yes.

Well said

My issue with RT is he is never a difference maker. Step up and carry the team in a big spot once in awhile.

This is fair. This team isn't good enough to be a contender without a QB who can put the team on his back, and right now the QB is just like the rest of the group: inconsistent and in need of improvement.

PFF also ranked Ryan Tannehill as the 7th best quarterback in 2013, and made the claim that Tom Brady is no longer a top 5 quarterback.........

So for everyone who circle jerks to PFF it's time to realize they don't know ****. The guy who runs the site never played a down of football and didn't watch a game till he was like 45.

PFF has a hard-on for Tannehill for some reason. Going back to last season in review they constantly have him subjectively rated as above average even though every objective measure says otherwise.

I think it's more comfortable for most of Finheaven to pretend that Tannehill is the problem and not the overall talent level of the team getting exposed.

I was asked a question last week in the glow of the NE win: IS Miami a well-rounded team? with the intent, obviously, that I would answer YES and detail the reason why.

Instead, I answered the question NO. And gave clear reasons why. And got negative responses for the most part. People just don't want to face that fact that this team was stocked w. "consistent mediocrity" at skill positions for years. You can't overturn that in one draft. You can't beat quality press man coverage w. only one explosive WR and TE. That junk gets exposed NOW against high level teams.

Miami is on the upward swing, but it's gonna take awhile before the offensive scheme can overcome some of the radical talent loss at #2 WR (essentially all WRs not counting Landry and Wallace) and TE (Clay is a all-purpose back pressed into duty at TE who is terrible at downfield pressure D. Sims is a lumbering fool with hands of stone who should be blocking) and RB? Don't get me started.

People however want to pretend that all the talent on the team is great except for one position: QB.

So easy to blame the QB when your favorite player gets radically exposed against a good team. Truth is, the only to skill position player making plays was Wallace and Tannehill and a couple from Landry. The rest were being "consistently mediocre."

You must not have seen the TD he had against San Diego last year..

Tannehill dropped back to pass 49 times, with 3 batted, leaving 46 throws. He completed 31, and 4 were dropped. He was accurate on 35 of 46 throws. That's fact, not anything subjective, as was his accuracy under pressure. Buff also had 19 combined total pressures on him. So, Individually, he had an overly positive grade.

This does NOT mean that his individual performance made for a good game for points, the team, and winning, as it certainly did not. However, PFF does not grade on that, just his individual performance.

Isn't that like saying, "The operation was a great success!" even though the patient died?
