Ryan Tannehill
Here’s the shocker: Tannehill comes in third. Yes, he hasn’t passed for over 100 yards in a single playoff game, but he’s not asked to do so. He’s asked to hand the ball off to Derrick Henry and make plays every once in a while.
He’s done just that. He ran for a touchdown and threw for two touchdowns in the game against the Ravens. Tannehill was the one who closed down the Patriots with some key pickups on third down in the wild card round. When he is called upon, he is making plays. He’s also not making mistakes, turning the ball over, or giving his opponents great field position. Sometimes a situation calls for a game manager — and every QB hates that term — and Tannehill has been it.
Also, let’s not forget Tannehill sparked the Titans run to the playoffs. He’s been extremely deadly off play-action and actually had a historic yards-per-attempt rate of play fakes. Ryan Tannehill is exactly what Tennessee needs right now.
