Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill has been sacked 24 times through five games. Despite the high number of takedowns, offensive coordinator Mike Sherman doesn't feel it's affecting the second-year quarterback.
"He’s been able to handle that," Sherman said, per The Palm Beach Post. "The guy is as resilient a person, a competitor as I’ve been around. And I’ve been around some very good ones."
Sherman added he doesn't pay attention to the fact Tannehill is on pace to be sacked an NFL record 77 times. The current record is 76, which is held by quarterback David Carr (2002 with Houston).
"It’s like a golf score. The first nine you get all excited about, and then you eventually hit your golf score," Sherman said. "I think as I said, (the line is) a work in progress. I think it’ll all work itself out."
