I agree with running game struggled. and I believe Tanny made the most out of that game. He threw to covered WR/s and made it work. Can any qb keep this up? well see. So far hes impressed and we are lucky to have him.
We win that game with Mariota just as easy if not easier if we get the good Mariota

what is Mariota's record against the Chargers?

IF we get the good Mariota? That is 1 in 8 or so games, so the chances were very unlikely we would get the "good" Mariota.
 
If mariota throws for that completion percentage ppl are like well its all short passes etc. He didnt have any deep passes last week. In fact he looked a lot like Mariota on an average day.
Well you are right about people complaining about them being short passes and I’d really have to look into each game he reached that comp% BUT I completely disagree with your nonsense second statement. “Average day”

Mariota has reached that comp% exactly 3 times in his entire career.
-His first game against TB, he killed it that day. Gave lots of false hope for a franchise waiting for a QB like that.
-his second, almost exactly 1 year later in a beat down of Jax.
- his third, over 2 years later in a Houston route.

None of which he reached the same yardage total.

So you are entirely dreaming about what Mariota’s “average day” is. As I posted before, if he had a lot more “average days”, he wouldnt have been benched, we wouldn’t have even signed his replacement, and he probably wouldn’t be playing in a different uniform next year (if he is signed by someone).

It was 0-2.

24/32, 237, 1/1. In a 20-19 loss

27/43, 313, 3/2 in a 43-35 loss.

***Surprising stat alert***. He was only sacked twice between the two games and one was a zero.

IF (can’t possibly make that bigger) we get the “good” Mariota which if we go by your “average days” numbers are impossible for him to reach.

Notice how mariotas good days equate in blow outs. Not nail bitters that come down to the wire!! Hmm bet you didn't think of that.

One was a blowout loss, did you not catch that?

Plus 3 games in 5 years isn’t really even considered a success rate.

Completion percentage is dumb imo but throughout their careers mariotas and tannenhills are basically the same at 63 percent. so that last game was an outlier. But the majority of is passes were short and didnt go fa .

Way to change it up. So they are about the same but THill’s best games = MM avg games.
 
I don't know if we keep him or not, but if he should continue to win and move the offense the way he did against SD (and I'm still not convinced that was a great barometer of success as yet), then they won't have much choice but to sign him and look at drafting a QB. Trouble with winning is we drift further from a higher draft pick. I want to see team win ultimately, so if that means Tanny is successful and we resign him then so be it.
 
I wouldn’t mind if Tannehill just ended up being the guy . Not sure what the chances of that happening are though but it would be such a relief not to to have to start completely over at qb .
 
Something worth noting is that 7 different players caught passes and had double digit yardage against LA. In Mariota's 2 best games, only 3 players eclipsed double digit receiving yardage, and 1 did so on a 75 yard screen pass. It's like, the number of receivers doubled with Tannehill under center.
 
Begs the question.....how many truly top level, go win games for you guys are there really in the nfl.....about 5 I would say. Mahomes, Brady, Brees, Rodgers, Wilson. Then another level of guys like Rivers, Ryan, Rothlisberger, guys who were probably top level but are either injured or old...or both. So that is what maybe 8-10 teams that, barring injury have guys that you can say can carry a team. The rest of the NFL are searching for that guy.

That's about right, roughly half the league
