Tannehill: where he ranks stats wise in different categories

Nawledge said:
his stats correlating to wins is pointless, I provided 2 examples of why they don't mean **** and his response was "no correlation is perfect"...well then why should anyone give a ****?

Like many of you, I think his conclusions and stats he values are flawed. However, if I can find something else that might illustrate how stats CAN equate to winning, it involves drag racing. At the very first part of a race, the biggest advantage a driver can have off the line that is purely driver skill, is reaction time. the quicker the reaction time, the sooner the driver gets moving. that stat can seriously equate to winning. however, after reaction time is factored in, you have so many variables that are clearly dependent on both the team and the driver.
 
I find it interesting that Tanny is top 10 in yards and touchdowns

Completions - 8th (300)

Attempts - 6th (484)

Completion % - 17th (62.0)

Attempts/game - 9th (37.2)

Yards - 8th (3,315)

Yards/game - 12th (255.0)

Touchdowns - Tied 10th with Foles (20)

Interceptions - 6th most (14)

First Downs - Tied 7th with Matt Ryan (170)

20+ yd plays - Tied 10th with Flacco, Ryan & Alex Smith (38)

40+ yd plays - Tied 6th with Roethlisberger and Stafford (10)

QB rating - Theres alot of guys with not that many comp/attempts who rank high in this so going off of who has more than 200 attempts he ranks 22nd tied with Palmer (83.2)


Note:

Andrew Luck is not ahead of Tannehill in ANY category. Well he has less interceptions and thats it.

Now ill compare Wilson and Tanny.

Tannehill has 300 completions with 484 attempts/Wilson has 198 completions on 305 attempts. So Tanny has as many completions as Wilson has attempts.

Tanny has 37.2 attempts per game....Wilson has 25.4

Tanny has 3315 yards...Wilson has 2672 yards.

Tanny has 20 tds/14int....Wilson has 22/6

Tanny has 170 first downs...Wilson has 118.

Tanny has 38 completions of 20+ yards....Wilson has 41.

Tanny has 10 completions of 40+ yards...Wilson has 9.

Tanny has a 83.2 QB Rating....Wilson has 108.5



Everyone who thinks Wilson is so much better....the key stat here is Tannehill has 5 less completions than Wilson has attempts. The Seahawks are ranked 3rd in rushing. Miami is ranked 23rd in yards. Wilson doesnt carry that team like some of you guys want to believe. Im not saying Wilson sucks by any means but hes really not asked to throw all that much.

for me, I like a high completion percentage, then touchdowns, then yards. (yards usually equals "someone" getting a touchdown, either a QB or a Runningback)
 
out of all 12 categories I posted he is in the top 10 in 8 of them.
 
The numbers are very respectable. He needs to cut down on those damn interceptions and start hitting those deep balls. Until he does both of thosehe is not a franchise QB. I will also go out on a limb and say, he will never be as good as Russell Wilson so let's just forget that.

I would take Newton over Tannehill in less than a second. He is way more polished and he is YOUNGER.
