The stats guard against "selective memory," which is whats happening here. You seem to only recall the pick six and Roethlisberger playing poorly his last two possessions and now -- bad QB vs bad QB -- is imprinted on your mind. Don't take this as an insult as "selective memory" is a common human fault, that's why the stats are important.
Bash Tannehill all you want when he plays like **** for all I care but HE DID NOT PLAY BAD IN THAT PITTSBURGH GAME!!!
I didn't say Ben was bad, you guys played great D.
I didn't say Ryan was bad but he wasn't good either. a pick 6 in that spot and he didn't do much on the GW drive.
The stat sheet tells us little w/o context. Against us he threw 2 short passes that turned into TDs b/c of great individual efforts by the receivers, same thing on the GW TD in Pitt. In the stat sheet they look like great TD passes but in reality he did very little other than keep us and Pitt in those games that both should have been blowouts.
