Dunnie Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Did you not watch Sam the 2nd half of last year?

Miami's OC is being very carful with him by calling plays that limit what he can do. One amazing fact is...he has yet to through an int...I can't remember a rookie QB going 4 games without an int... You clearly don't watch football his first game was bad too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
More Cowbell Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 It doesn't matter who we start or who they start on O. Did you see how bad our secondary is against the Chargers? We made a 2 win team look like Kurt Warner Rams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Calm down gang, they're going to throttle us no matter who the QB is.... That said, I know Flores is the darling of the NFL right now but benching Tua was stupid. You dont do that to a kid. You have to let him play through it. Dumb AF if you ask me. That said, I've never been sold on Tua at all so we'll see but I dont agree with benching your rookie QB for having a rough half. Let him finish it out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old adage that you let players play through all the time can hurt as much as it helps. One reason mark sanchez never developed was the jets gifted him the starters spot and went well out of their way to never have level of play accountability.

Yeah, I mean, I get it, I just disagree. You decided to make the change, you have to stick with it. Fitz sucks playing from behind, always throws the back breaking pick...did he really expect him to save the day? Besides, imagine the confidence Tua and team gains in Tua if he sticks it out and gets the W. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggs Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Not untypical for a rookie to have several good games and hit a wall in the NFL. In the NFL teams actually adjust to what you're doing. Now Miami has to make adjustments. They have more talent on both sides of the ball. Pretty confident they figure out a way to win. The better team usually wins unless it's a trap game or a Thursday night travel game where teams are unusually flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well maybe the HC wasn’t sold on making the switch but didn’t have much of a choice, and he was waiting for Tua to struggle so he could justify putting fitz back in. But conceptually i agree, when you make the switch you commit to the rookie and go with him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the playoffs were the goal, he should have never benched Fitz. The problem for the Fish is on one hand theyre in the thick of a playoff push while on the other hand they have to be sure that Tua is going to be their QB moving forward. If he fails this audition they have the Texans first round pick which would give them an option to draft another QB No matter how many times Flores denies it, this is clearly an audition 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tua will ever have a big game it will be against this defense. They probably also feel as though they can start Tua and keep it close until the half where they can always bring in Fitz to save the day.

I don’t watch college games live but when I was watching the WRs (full game cut ups of passing plays), I didn’t think the QB throwing them the ball at Alabama was that great. He actually surprised me so far this year because I thought he was playing decent—didn’t see yesterday’s game though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losmeister Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 it was strange timing to move to Tua and the games they won with him at QB were driven by the D and ST creating Tds. he's been pretty MEH 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
