So very comparable with the exception of total passing yards, but that's no real surprise given how much the Titans run Henry and the lack of a real rushing threat from KC.  And it's not cherry picking...it's the entire time Tannehill has been the QB.

At this point, what difference does it make?  Why does it matter?  You can compare stats all day long but it doesn't really matter.

Did they play the same opponents?  Did they have the same offense?

The variables are so different between teams, schedules and circumstances that one player's stats don't really mean much compared to another player's stats.

Stats aren't a perfect measurement, but they are an indicator of how well (or poorly) a player is performing.  The comparison was more of an indicator that Tannehill isn't some bottom tier QB.  He's actually performed quite well.  Forget the comparison then...a 114 QBR, over 6,000 yards, 61 TD, 10 INT, and a 67.7% completion percentage over a 24 game period is not " just OK"...it's pretty [BLEEP] good.
