Whites Bay Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 3 years in and Tannehill has not led his team to a winning record. That's because it's hard to win in the NFL. Don't forget that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 3 years in and Tannehill has not led his team to a winning record. yea, but he is now paid like a winning QB. maybe that's what they base this on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I really think sportswriters have it wrong. Not just in their projections but in how they look at a team. I've heard over and over again, "but they have no QB" and, while that is somewhat true, it ignores a major point. QB play, without question, is the biggest asset to have an the one position that is mostly responsible for offensive success. So they have that right. But what they're missing is that Tyrod (or whomever) doesn't have to be better over an entire season than other QBs. He simply has to be better during each specific game to get a win. Last year the Bills won more than the lost with Kyle friggin' Orton manning the helm. How did they manage that? Well, the Bills D help opposing QBs to a 75 passer rating on the season. Even Orton can manage to be better than that on most days. So during the actual games the Bills played Orton ended up being the better QB on the field that day more often than not. That translated to more wins than losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can be overcome them this D will be invinceable. In REX we trust. Go BILLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPappy Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I think the dolphins are officially the most overrated team in the NFL now. I agree with this 1000%. I think there going to be a tough team to play but I see them 8-8 or 9-7 at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
