The Fan Base's view of Tannehill is pretty warped if you know Oiler/Titan Football.

I think people know what I think of Tannehill so please don't take this the wrong way. Tannehill is good.   These historical comparisons are flawed. He definitely benefits in these historica

Willing to be a lot of people would be shocked to know that Tannehill is the current Career Franchise Record holder in the following categories:

 

QB Win % 

Passer Rating

Completion %

TD/INT Ratio

Lowest INT%

Pct of GW Drives

Pct of 4QC

 

He's 2nd overall in these categories:

TD% 

YPA 

Yards Per Game

 

In terms of Season ranks, the metrics where it's Top 5 are:

 

Passer Rating: 1, 2

Yards: 3. 4 

TD: 2

INT: 1, 2, 3

Completion % - 1, 3, 4, 5

YPA: 1, 5

TD%: 2, 3

INT %: 1, 4

 

 

 

 

Who is he second in YPA to?  I would have felt pretty sure he was 1st in that category.

Now do Kirk Cousins with the Vikings.

And Kirk Cousins is statistically one of the best QBs of all-time. Recent years have seen significantly better passing stats for obvious reasons. RT is still quite likely the best QB in franchise history though; it's not saying much unfortunately. 

 

Comparing RT to people across the league gives you a much better idea of who he is than comparing him across franchise history. He's good enough to contend on a good team, but he's not quite at the difference-maker level that the top 5-8 guys in the league are at.

Jacky Lee - a backup QB who played here and there in the really early Oilers AFL Years.  8.0 vs 7.9 for Tannehill.

Across the league, he's been top 10 in QB metrics during his Titan tenure....the team's failures to win a championship have not been because of QB play.

In large part because they kept giving Henry carries for 2 YPC in those 2020/2021 losses to be in 3rd and long way too much....

Giving the ball over and over to a hobbled Henry is clear as day as to the reason they lost in the 2021 playoffs.

It sure didn't help nor did the tipped balls/predictable as fuck play calling.

 

Foreman was running well.  Even the same play calling but more Foreman, less Henry , would have won that game. I still do not understand that game - Henry was tripping on about 1/3 of his runs before even being touched.
