Tannehill completed 25 of 38 passes for 350 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 20-10 victory over the Patriots. He also gained 17 yards on three rushes and recovered a fumble.
In what has to be considered one of the unlikeliest outcomes of the 2015 season, the Dolphins thoroughly stymied a Patriots team with plenty of incentive, and the much maligned Tannehill spearheaded the victory. He posted his second consecutive 300-yard performance, and his 9.21 yards per attempt was a season high.The 26-year-old finished the 2015 campaign with six 300-yard games, and has progressively increased his passing yards through his first four seasons. He also threw a career-low 12 interceptions in 2015, but did suffer a career-high eight fumbles. While there are currently whispers that the team is willing to part ways with the fourth-year quarterback if the incoming head coach were to want to clean house at the position, Tannehill's 4,208 passing yards and 24:12 TD:INT ratio wouldn't be readily replaced by any free agent or 2016 draft choice.
