Still a VERY expensive get. Being productive and the potential is there for deeper passes once the OL (if ever the OL) gets fixed. Compared to the Iggy pick, it's a genius move.
And I'm finally home to watch the game... last quarter. How has it been? Any highlights/lowlights so far?
Hopefully Sanders comes out of his slump soon. Felt like it was a 50/50 kick even from 46 yds. I have to say that it's easy to feel better about Tua as the future QB with his work today. I'm still concerned about his injury history, but it makes paying to cost to get Watson less attractive. Not that the sensible move is one the front office cares much about.
With the exception of those offensive penalties, this has been the best game Miami has played…offense, defense and special teams
This is now 2 weeks in a row my favorite two teams present me a victory Sunday and both had their best games of the season so far. Would be nice if they could keep that up!
What a great game! All phases of the team played well, defense, ST and offense. We're not only on track now for 7-7, I think we can make 9-7 given how the Saints and Titans aren't playing that well. No team has ever made the playoffs from 1-7 but that last game against NE might be the moment for some history. We're playing at the level of a playoff team right now so we just need to continue this. Also love that Tua is slowly shutting up the doubters, though I'm guessing this will take awhile.
Tua 87.1 completion percentage against one of the best defenses without a good o-line… Just stay healthy now!
I don't think it's any coincidence that on the day I wear my new Dolphins shirt the Dolphins play their best game of the season. I guess I know what I'm wearing next Sunday!
Not sure what they were referring to, but Bills are still by far #1 in passer rating allowed. Carolina was 11th best by that measure before today. Anyway, doesn't matter. Our offense finally did something, and Tua had a really good game. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2021/opp.htm
There's this (already accounting for this week, I think): Carolina Panthers News, Scores, Status, Schedule - NFL - CBSSports.com And I just heard a guy say that by yards through the air Caroline were #1.
Hes a bust.. if hes with the team next year it should be in a reserve role.. im a trojan fan and i said this guy is not made for the NFL way before his draft came up..
Completely agree. I’m an Iowa fan and saw AJE tear him a new a-hole in the Holiday Bowl 2 years ago and wasn’t impressed.
Tua has been playing the quarterback position brilliantly... today he carried despite his line being historically bad and he’s thriving despite that. What more do you want?
Yup… i remember that game… i always warn people right before the draft about these usc players… warned about sanchez, darnold, leonard williams.. juju… adoree jackson… andrew… they appear like NFL talent playing against teams like oregon state.. and theyre shaped and athletic enough to have the combine numbers… but whenever they played against some team like Alabama, they get shut down. I cant remember the last big win theyve had. Maybe it changes now with Lincoln Riley taking over.
