    He obviously speaks for everyone.

    Anyone else getting the feeling that it would kill these Dolphins "fans" if Tua did well because of the hate they for him?

    I'm not sold on him for the record but I'm not going to act like a drama queen over him either.

    The context is Dilfer managed the O and rode a HOF D to a super bowl victory.

    when you saw him come off the bench for Bama and make that throw in the championship, you thought he was generational. I really hope he balls out. Would rather roll with tua (assuming he can stay healthy and win SB'S wink emoji) than trade for Watson

    Are you serious, dude? "fan"? ..hahaha!! Right. Good one. You then go on to say that you are not sold on him, but are not going to act like a drama queen over him? What are you even talking about? Uhh. He made a comment that no one billed him as a generational talent. I showed that he was wrong, but yeah man. rock on.

    So, he said this four years ago when Tua was in college and he absolutely was a generational talent in college.

    So pally boy, this is just one article of many about Tua where people said he was generational? I'd like to see more if you can provide them. I did a quick search on Google and I can only find this Dilfer quote from 4 years ago when Tua was a freshman in college.

    I also asked what NFL analyst said this about Tua coming into the NFL draft. Link? Quote?

    That's all you got? A quote from a journeyman quarterback and a failed analyst four years ago about a freshman in college?

    All I can say is we drafted a Qb that never played a full college season coming off a serious hip injury that might not last 10 years playing with 4 first rd wrs and a first round Rb and that did not make checks at the line scrimmage fifth in the draft!
    Madness!
    Forgot to mention average arm strength and mobility!

    Honestly, there's just no point in it. Tua won't be the best QB in football this coming season and he won't be the worst. So whatever you're hoping will be proven just won't happen- he's going to play like a 2nd-year quarterback with some great moments and some bad ones. People can choose to focus on either side to "prove" their beliefs...but it just doesn't prove anything.

    I am fully Stanning out on Tua. I have very unrealistic expectations. I think he is who he was at Alabama, and Fuller + Waddle as additions to the WR corpse is going to be magic. I think the circumstances of his rookie year are going to be obvious in hindsight. I know I should temper my feelings, but F that! I'm all in. So much more fun doing that.

    Hey, he's our QB1 so I'm all-in regardless. I think we have all the tools to have a great season as long as the line delivers; that's my only concern to be honest. That WR room will make Tua's job a lot easier though- I can't believe we finally have some quality depth.

    Just hope he can really produce and provide. As really need to work on throwing. As well as run effectively but not to the point you get hurt.

    I could not agree with you more. Im also a huge homer so I buy the hype and think he will ball out this year. I have been wrong many times in my life.
    Last year he was playing behind a line with Eric flowers and 4 rookies, this year will likely have either dieter or another rookie on this super super young line. I feel like this is the biggest factor on his development that no one is talking about. Odvi the WR's are more sexy

    Could we deduce that with this stat you shared + his YPA, it shows that pressure was getting on him fast?

    I find that stat very interesting. The eye test told me that the dude had some wiggle. Not like Kyler Murray or Lamar and defo not like Allen or newton, but dude made other dudes miss him in the open field a few times last year on critical downs.

    Ever watch the Jackie Chan movie "Legend of the drunken master?" His Kung Fu style in that movie is what Tua's running looks like to me

    I like his placement in that list because he stated that his hip feels ten times better than it did last year. If he was gimpy then and evaded rushers at a high level, being healthier and presumably faster should bode well for his chance to stay clean.

    DM is the original. LoDM is the sequel. Legend is reasly good, but the original is better. The original was the first comedy Jackie Chan did. It features a 20 something Jackie Chan getting beat up by an 80 year old Beggar So in the training montage.
