Tannehill- The Same but Different

[So Be]

I put together a comparison of what Tannehill is doing this year compared to last year using basic stats and rankings. I thought it was interesting to see how some things were the same, with others being somewhat different. closer look.

This year, RT is 231 of 353 for an average of 219 yards per game, and 6.7 yards per pass, a 65.4% accuracy, 17 TD's and 7 picks.

Last year, RT is 355 of 588 for an average of 219 yards per game, and 6.7 yards per pass, a 60.4% accuracy, 24 TD's and 17 picks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This year, RT is ranked #14 by NFL, with a QBR of 92, and #11 by PFF. He has run 37 times for 261, a 7.1 avg and 26 ypg.

Last year, RT is ranked #27 by NFL, with a QBR of 81, and #6 by PFF. He ran 40 times for 238, a 6.0 avg and 15 ypg.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This year, we have allowed 19 sacks (25 total), 25 hits, and 80 hurries. Total pressres- 124

Last year, we allowed 51 sacks (58 total), 42 hits, and 131 hurries. Totall pressure- 224.

What does everyone see as the same and different

I don't understand why people compare TDs and INTs as raw numbers, rather than per attempt (the same way we look at yards). The total output of TDs and interceptions has a lot to do with how many passes a team attempts.

TD % of 4.1 last season, improved to 4.8 this season. INT % of 2.9 last season, improved to 2.0 this season. That gives you a more relevant comparison, IMO.

It may just be me but, I see the same in more TD's and fewer picks in the basic stats, without using a calculator for percentages.

Last year Tannehill gave me 5.5 boners.....This year he is giving me 7.5 boners. ( on the 1-10 boner scale of course )

No, you don't. You can't tell if the increase in touchdowns is just a result of a player throwing more passes, likewise if the drop in interceptions is a result of throwing fewer passes. It's like in basketball when a guy averages 25 points on 22 shots, versus a guy who averages 22 points on 15 shots. Efficiency matters.

Kobe Bryant is averaging 27 ppg this year......oh by the way its by shooting 37% from the field

LOL. Yes I do. I may be more adept at math than some but, can easily see that with the number of throws, which I listed. Did you read the entire OP? I ask because many post without doing so for whatever reason.

Meh I find that if I'm comparing numbers I prefer to do at least the same number of games as a sample

Four games with a 90+ rating, so he's on pace for 6.4.

He had seven in 2012 and six in 2013 for an average of 6.5.

Its pretty simple for me, if he can get that stat to 8 we make the playoffs, if he finishes at 6 or less we don't. And if he gets it to 10 we have a good shot to win it all.

True but, I posted averages, which I believe you can compare on 10 games vs 16. It's not like comparing a few games to start the season.

I believe it will come done to the OL. In spite of the quick short passes, throwing to RB's a lot more, and using his legs, the total pressures we are giving up is a major concern, and that was with Albert at All Pro level. Aside from the sacks, it's not much different from last year.

Offense taken but, not very well. :)
