Re: "Tannehill just reverted to form is all"

Tannehill has always been a mystery.

He was a wide receiver in college until his third year, when he started seven games at QB.

I was still a passionate Miami Dolphin fan when he got drafted in 2012, so I was able to watch him closely from the very beginning.

During his seven seasons at Miami (out 1 full season with knee injury), he never had a consistent running game or a stable offensive line to take the heat off his passing game.

In spite of that, he holds many of the Miami team QB records, a team that included Bob Griese and Dan Marino for more than two decades.

Even more important, he never complained even once in public about Miami's RB and OL issues. For instance, in his first pro game, he faced J.J. Watt, in Watt's Hall of Fame break out second season. In seven years, the guy never made an excuse for ANYTHING.

In his last seven seasons, his lowest QBR was 88.7. With the Titans, his three season QBR average is 104.5.

His biggest problem - interceptions. Almost every season, his interception number is close to 50% of his TDs, and some of those interceptions, like today, have been very costly.
