ESPN: Tannehill best passing day against the blitz of any quarterback since '08

[CF DolFan]

The more you look at this performance ... the more excited it should make you.

According to ESPN Stats Inc., Tannehill had the best passing day against the blitz of any quarterback since 2008. And the Cardinals blitzed him plenty on Sunday.
From Stats Inc.:
“Ryan Tannehill faced extra pressure on 25 of his 44 dropbacks, and completed 16-of-22 passes for 306 yards, a touchdown and an interception against at least five pass rushers. Tannehill’s 306 passing yards against at least five pass rushers is the highest single-game total by anyone since the start of the 2008 season.”
“More impressive for Tannehill is who it came against–entering Sunday, the Cardinals’ defense led the league with a 34.1 completion percentage and 3.6 yards per attempt allowed when sending at least five pass rushers.[/quote]

Despite the loss, I would say the Dolphin camp has to be pretty happy the way things went.

Got to feel bad for Wake, he had a monster day and I have not even seen his name mentioned. lol

Wake and Tanny might win offensive and defensive player of the week and the team lost!  That says something

Let's keep it in perspective. They both played great, but RT's turnover's aren't going to make that happen, especially with the games that Brady and Flacco had (340 3TDs/0INTs and 356 2 TDs/1INT, respectively). Wake I can see, maybe. I think the loss hurts both of their chances. -EK
