Kelly on Tannehill: ‘One of Worst’ NFL Quarterbacks in Clutch Moments

With a lavish new contract in tow, Ryan Tannehill enters a defining season with the Miami Dolphins. In what areas does the quarterback need to improve the most?

“Play on third down, play in the fourth quarter,” the Sun Sentinel’s Omar Kelly said on the Joe Rose Show. “I mean those clutch moments where you have to put a team on your back and win a game or perform at a high level, Ryan is one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL. He’s statistically below average on third-down passing. He’s statistically below average on fourth-quarter performance and if you look at this team and this franchise and this organization not just during the Joe Philbin era, which happens to coincide with the Ryan Tannehill era, look at it the past decade.
