Quote:Luck has Reggie freaking Wayne, and rising star T.Y. Hilton.

 

Tannehill has Brian Hartline (who never even came close to 1000 yard season before Tannehill) and an extremely overrated Mike Wallace.


Miami's O-line is also worse than the Colts.  


Who's talking about defense when you're discussing the skills of a QB?  That only translates to wins (and even then, there are plenty of factors in Luck's favor that aren't in Tannehill's.  Such as facing the Patriots twice a year, when the Colts have no team they face twice a year half as good as the Pats at this point)

 

Reggie freaking Wayne is like 33 (declining stage of his career) and now is coming off an ACL) 

 

Rising star TY Hilton is similar in player to what Mike Wallace is (although I don't believe his ceiling is as high). Hartline at this point of each's career is easily better than what Wayne is. 

 

The OL"s are both bad. 

 

As for defense....uh wut??? The better defense is going to make it easier on the offense to win games by lower scores, more turnovers and putting the offense in better spots. Tannehill had the better defense and still could only top out at 7 (or 8) wins. 

 

Luck had one of the worst defenses I can ever remember seeing on a playoff team. That team without Luck would win 3 games, tops. 

 

Miami without Tannehill might win a game or 2 less than they won with him. 

 

That last part is in my opinion and not fact but the anecdotal evidence supports the notion. 

 

Luck has shown he can carry his team on his back. Tannehill isn't on that level. 

 

 

As for the schedule (achilles) ....please. Other than New England that division sucks too.
