R. Wilson been sacked 27 times & has 8 fumbles no big deal but Tannehill gets blamed

[DuderinoN703]

That's because the Seahawks are 7-1. Wins cover up the stench.

Thanks to the best homefield advantage in the league and a defense that stops teams

 

[Heinegrabber]

Besides all the stats **** Wilson I cheer for and scrutinize the PHINZ. Until my QB makes it I will hold the heat to his ass good bad or indifferent.

Turnover Tannehill looks bad compared to anyone but, say, Weeden. Say it like it is. Those turnovers are the story because they've flat out lost us the ballgames.

Both of Seattle's starting tackles are out with injury. They are limping along but keep winning. Probably going to catch up with them sooner or later.
They looked as bad as us last night. But Wilson did NOT turn it over.

9 turnover in 8 games (Wilson) as compared to 14 turnovers in 7 games (RT17) is a big difference between 7-1 and 3-4
That Seattle D helps too.

hE HAD HIS STARTING TACKLES UP UNTIL LAST NIGHT,

THIS!!!

Its that simple. STOP TURNING THE BALL OVER!! Turnoverhill.

Also, when people bring RG3 into it, its just even more evidence that Tannehill is a huge handicap to our team. RG3 BLOWS!

And Tannehill isn't playing behind a terrible line? I dont like the Wilson to Tannehill comparisons anyway because Wilson has outperformed Tannehill to this point...but still the olines are both bad.

.... and yet Wilson doesn't throw picks at the rate Tannehill does. Why is that?

 

[WVDolphan]

I understand the turnover differences which is why I included those #'s but it was more for perspective. Tannehill is getting ripped but other QB's have similar #s & it's not made a big deal. RG3 has more fumbles & less sacks what does that say & he lays in the NFC east.

It says RG3 BLOWS. Unfortunately for us, so does Tannehill.

Because Wilson is a decent QB whereas Tannehill is not.

Because the rest of Wilson's team actually plays like a team and builds big leads through the run and excellent defense. With Tannehill his mistakes are being magnified because of close games. When Lynch goes off Wilson hands off left and right and watches...Tannehill does not have that luxury.

Tannehill's mistakes are being magnified by close games?

Do you realize the argument you just made against Tanny being a capable QB when the game is on the line?

Also, only the AZ,SF, and JAX games were blowouts.

I know you're trying to help OP but this comparison doesn't help anybody in our organization in any way. It makes our GM look bad, it makes our coaching staff look bad AND it makes Tannehill look bad. It kind of makes our O-line look like they might not be the worst in the league but thats not saying much when measured against the injury riddled O-line of Seattle.

 

[Kencoboy]

Tannehill at this point is not a capable QB consistently when the game is on the line. A lot of that is not his fault in my view, and that's asking way too much of him at present. All I meant was that Seattle is not counting on Wilson to win games for them and we are putting Tannehill in that situation. Then we are disappointed when he fails. The Seahawks are winning games because of a much better team effort...and don't need Wilson to win for them. Yet.

I'm sorry but I didn't read your post, I couldn't get past the part where you said "for those who want to bench RT"........That's insane, are fans really calling for RT to benched? If so ignore them and move on....

 

[dabeastdabone]

I was going to post something like this yesterday. I was also going to mention P. Manning has been sacked 11 times and fumbled 6 times. Ultimately I decided the haters are just dead set on their opinion and I'm beginning to just think most those who hate on Tannehill don't watch anything but the Dolphins games and the ESPN highlights.

 

[Dr. Phin]

13 TDs....4 INTs...
11 TDs....9 INTs...

Figure it out...

So Russell Wilson & Ryan Tannehill both face lots of pressure, sacks, fumbles.

- Russell Wilson is able to stay composed, has a 99.0 passer rating, and leads his team to a 7-1 record.

- Ryan Tannehill gets rattled, has a 79.5 passer rating, and leads his team to a 3-4 record.
