It's easy to forget how big of an impact that injury had. I do remember sitting there when it happened and saying to my gf "****, losing him seriously hurts our playoff chances". He was the leader on offense. That is kinda obvious in hindsight. He was brought in to become the cornerstone of the offense and he was living up to it. And to think of the way we lost that game on top of that! Must've been a pretty deflated locker room postgame.
One player should not have your whole line collapse, shows the pitiful state of the oline once again.
Two straight oline specialists as our head coach, hopefully we have learned our lesson
Your chart illustrates just how bad it was though... Tannehill deserves MAJOR props for surviving, much less performing decently after Albert went down.
From week 11 on, Tannehill finished 3-4 with that OL. Same as Matty Ice in his cupcake division with his elite receivers and the 25th ranked OL during that time. Certainly RT is far from a finished product with plenty of room for improvement, but finishing the last 2 seasons with all he's had to contend, really fosters a renewed appreciation for him and his durability.
