Note: Your eyes aren’t deceiving you. These two have an identical career passer rating. Allen has the better arm and more physical talent clearly, but seeing as how Tannehill spent a lot of time on some bad Miami Dolphins teams, this makes you wonder how good he may have been had he played on better rosters.
