Tannehill did not finish the 13th game, so technically what you’re showing isn’t the average of 13 games.
The 2018 Ravens had a top 3 defense while the 2016 Dolphins had a bottom 3 defense.
The 2018 Ravens had the 2nd best running game in the league while the Dolphins were ranked 14th, even with Ajayi’s huge games. Yes, part of that running game was Jackson but he also had 10 fumbles in those 8 games.
If someone is trying to tell me that Jackson was more of a factor the Ravens went to the playoffs this year than Ryan Tannehill was for the Dolphins in 2016, I will say it’s an anti Tannehill agenda more than anything else.
Well he averages 219 yds of total offense instead of 217 from weeks 6-12 as oppose to week 6-13.
During the 6-0 run the Dolphin defense from weeks 6-12 gave up the 4th fewest points in the NFL.
During the 6-0 run the Dolphin offense from weeks 6-12 had the 5th most rushing yards in the NFL.
If Tannehill avgd 219 yds of total offense during a stretch in which he had a top 4 defense and a top 5 run game and Jackson avgd 225 yds of total offense while having a top 3 defense and 2nd best run game (in large part due to him) why does one get more credit than the other? Maybe neither deserve the credit they get and should be thankful for a strong defense and run game.
