So, wait:
- Tannehill faces one of the best defenses in the league (as a rookie in his first start) and sucks. This is no excuse, and he gets SOTG against HOU.
HOWEVER
- Defense holds OAK to 1 of 13 on 3rd down. But OAK's offense is garbage, so this doesn't really count.
Huh?
Yes, when MIA plays NE, they will be unlikely to hold them to one 3rd-down conversion for the entire game. But they did not play NE!
Grade the players on what they did, not what they would have done if it was a different opponent. Tannehill wouldn't have had 3 interceptions against JAX; does that mean he shouldn't have been SOTG against HOU?
