NFL categories where Fitzpatrick was better than Tannehill — there were 3 last season

Part 1 of a 2-part series on the Dolphins’ acquisitions, this one heavy with Ryan Fitzpatrick chatter:

u25aa Ryan Tannehill has never led the NFL in anything, in his seven seasons, except times sacked (one time) and yardage lost on sacks (twice).

Ryan Fitzpatrick, on the other hand, led the NFL in three positive categories last season alone, even while starting just seven games: most 400 yard passing games (four, tying an NFL record), yards per attempt (9.6) and yards per completion (14.4).

That 9.6 yards per pass attempt was the NFL’s highest since Kurt Warner in 2000.
