(Disclaimer: So far)
Background Reasoning
1. He has definitely improved from last year, and sits at 9tds and 7 ints. Believe it or not having more tds than ints is a big accomplishment for dolphins qbs.
2. Division games have been tough for Ryan thus far....and it would be encouraging to see a good game, and terrible to see a dud.
REASONS I BELIEVE MAKES THIS THE MOST IMPORTANT
1A. (Td/Int ration): If he goes in and throws 2 tds and 0 ints he will be at 11tds and 7 ints. That is the biggest differential since Pennington and maybe since Marino before Chad. Even in a loss you would have to like the pace he would be on somewhere around 23tds and 13-15 picks. Great progress for a 2nd year starter.
1B. If he goes in and throws 1 Td and 3 ints we are back at 10tds and 10ints. With another qb who cannot (so far) pass for sufficiently more tds than ints. It would be very disheartening.
2. (Total Passing Tds): If he throws 1 td or more he would still be on pace for over 20td passes this season, which BELIEVE IT OR NOT HAS ONLY BEEN DONE ONCE SINCE MARINO. And that was Jay Fiedler with 20 (he also had 19 ints).
3. (win/close game): If we win its a huge bonus, and if its a close game it shows we are progressing enough to close this gap. A blow out has to have us scratching our head. I believe it is still a positive for team even if we lose in a close game with Ryan playing well.
SUMMARY
1. I know the basis of this is about statistics and many factors (OL) can influence his stats, BUT lets be honest we have not had a qb with decent stats outside of Pennington in 15 years.
2. I feel as though that if Tannehill leaves Sunday with 2/3 picks and 1/2 tds it is very telling. It would once again put us with a qb who struggles to outproduce his turnovers. (SO FAR). If he leaves sunday with 3td/1 pick or 2td 0 picks and sits at 12/8 or 11/7 it would mean a lot to me as a skeptical fan.
Thoughts
(Disclaimer Part II: If he does have said bad game it does not mean he can't change my mind as season progresses)
