One of my favorite moments this afternoon was seeing Ryan Fitzpatrick cheering from the sidelines when Tua went in and trying to get the crowd to cheer even louder for him. This whole saga is just a great story for the game of football- not just the Dolphins or even the NFL, but that 8 year old on a sandlot somewhere that's starting to figure out what life is really about and how you should carry yourself. Its how it's supposed to be and we haven't seen that for decades at the top level.
It's funny, when I saw him roll out for his first pass, I was feeling my stomach sink because all I could think was, "he's going to go out of bounds! He can't get squared off to throw the ball away from that position!" Then I remembered he was left-handed...
You can’t help but like this kid - I really hope he’s the qb/leader we’ve been waiting for for what seems like an eternity. Fitz is the perfect mentor and another guy who you can’t help rooting for. I hope he stays with the team in some capacity after he hangs up his cleats.
