DAVIE, Fla. DJ LeMahieu Jersey . - Everything seems to be coming together for Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill.With one game remaining in his third season under centre, his numbers in all significant categories are up. So is the confidence his coaches have in him.What matters most to Tannehill, however, is wins, not where he rates statistically. A home victory over the New York Jets on Sunday would give him nine on the season, a career best.But Miami will miss the playoffs for the sixth straight season and that weighs on him more than the fact that hes closing in on 4,000 yards passing.Honestly, I all I care about is winning, said Tannehill, who completed 35 of 47 passes for 396 yards, four touchdowns and one interception against the Vikings last week. I wish we could have won some more games and thats what were working toward in the future. Individual stats dont really matter if youre not getting the wins.Tannehill has thrown for a career-high 26 touchdowns and his 93.2 passer rating is nearly 12 points higher than what he finished with last season. His interceptions also are down from 17, and his completion percentage is up from 60.4 to 67.0, all indicators he is getting more comfortable in offensive co-ordinator Bill Lazors system.Lazor, who joined the Dolphins this season, took a close look at the game film from Sunday and saw things in Tannehills play that creates optimism for the future. It was more than just the types of throws.I saw Ryan stand in the pocket with two guys coming off blocks and he stood in there, made the throw while both of the guys were about to hit him, and they did hit him, Lazor said. I saw a play in the first quarter of the game, we ran a play-action and we tried to take a shot down the field, it was covered. He got some pressure late because it took a while, and he threw the ball away and avoided a sack. For me, as the coach, when I watched the tape, I watch those things that tell me, Hey, this guy is playing quarterback.Any controversy surrounding Tannehills role as the starter after the first three games feels so long ago. Coach Joe Philbin would not commit to him as the starter in London against the Oakland Raiders in the days leading up to the Week 4 game. Tannehill responded by completing 23 of 31 passes for 278 yards and two touchdowns.The former college receiver who made the switch to quarterback as a junior at Texas A&M feels he has made the right strides overall and is hoping to further prove that Sunday.I feel like Im better all-around than Ive been in the past. Completing passes, I think Ive grown through the season and gotten better each week, Tannehill said. I think Im just more comfortable in the offence. I think it took me some reps just to get comfortable with the system and the combinations were using and putting the ball in the right spot at the right time.I finally settled down, got comfortable and got the balls to the guys around me and theyre making plays.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL ;Custom Colorado Rockies Jerseys .
