Nothing weird about it. Ross and this front office have been terrible. They have made some very good moves this off season but that trade with KC was too much. I love T.Hill but to contend for a ring you need an elite level QB and Tua will never be that.
So you think Tua can’t throw deep? He’s shown he can do it. Just not on a level like Mahomes, Herbert, Allen, and Rodgers. I think with an improved coaching staff, scheme, and oline in front of him, his efficiency in the deep ball department will be much better…
He's never going to take you to the Super Bowl. I actually like Tua but he's just not going to be the guy to lead the Dolphins to a Super Bowl Championship.
You don’t know that for certain. Let’s see how he plays this season with all of these changes before we completely write the dude off…
It's not his strength. It doesn't come naturally to him the same way it didn't come naturally to D'Eriq King. Look at the difference once we got someone who it does come easily to.
Of course I don't know that for certain. Nobody knows anything for certain other than death and taxes. That's just my opinion. I see yours differs from mine and that's fine. We will see how it plays out.
This is make or break for Tua. Bringing in Armstead, Connor Williams, and a WHALE in Tyreek is showing that the Fins are adding the necessary pieces on offense to make a serious run. If they round out the O-Line and manage to have a respectable run game, you're looking at what could be an explosive offensive. If Tua is who his proponents say he is(count me amongst the skeptics, but I digress) .
I agree that the deep ball will never be his strength. His strengths is over the middle and quick strike offense using slants etc. He’s more like a point guard on the field in that regard. Hill and Waddle are perfect for that. They can take a 10 yard slant and turn it in to a house call real easy. To have two guys like that on the same offense changes the game completely. Good luck to defenses preparing and trying to stop that..
Our opinions are probably more similar than you think. We both think at the very least he can be a nice/average QB. I just think he has the potential to be a little more than that.
That’s a fact.
Even with all of those blazing times we saw this class put up, can you say with certainty that one of them will be an exact equivalent of Tyreek Hill??? **** I've known the fastest of those WR's(Ty Thornton) since he was 12 so I'm biased as fucc. But I'd NEVER miss the chance to grab a 27 year old Tyreek Hill in order to pick him or any other WR at #29 or #50. Not a washed Reek but The Cheetah in his prime...
Tua was average last year, but when you consider he had one skill position player he can count on (Waddle) who was a rookie, a **** offensive line, a terrible offensive coaching staff, and a terrible scheme/system, it changes the narrative as it relates to Tua. Let’s see what he can do with better running backs, receivers, offensive line play, coaching, and scheme.
We could have saved him all of those hurt feelings by picking Herbert or loading up on OL in an OL heavy 1st round and waiting too....as usual, thank you front office.
I think his deep ball struggles are a little overblown. Does he have the arm or deep ball accuracy of some of the elite QB’s in the league? **** no. But he can throw the ball deep and is fairly accurate in doing so. We just didn’t see enough of it last year. In part because of a poor offensive system/play-calling, **** poor weaponry, and one of the worst offensive lines in the league as it relates to pass protection..
