    There it is. Seems like there was some inconstancies when reviewing tape on Monday. McDaniel told him to get checked out.

    Still didn't rule him out for Sunday, but Bridgewater will start.

    the melt down of a season continues. Tua with concussion is better than the alternatives.

    So..

    A lot of our fans are out of line now..and after this presser hopefully come back to supporting them with excitement

    We were kicking the packers *** and our Qb suffered a concussion late in the first half, he tried to play thru it and obviously there were consequences of that.

    So none of us should be disappointed in Tuas play, or at the team for losing that game

    We are a team that was about to go on a roll..

    We now have to worry about the young man’s health and if he’ll play again, but we should back our team as hard as ever, we are on the right path, we may need to find another Qb at some point, or maybe not, but we’re on the right path

    Now lets go ****ing kill the patsies !!!

    Obviously you should argue with that since we just saw concussed Tua and it was certainly not better than any alternative but ignoring that Teddy is still one of the better backups. It would have been hard to address the backup position in an obviously better way.

    Yeah. So it turns out this played out exactly the way I was trying to explain to you yesterday. You got to stop taking the NFL at their word. They are a major corporation who only care about themselves and were clearly doing PR/damage control yesterday with that interview.

    How do you get that?

    This is ultimately on Tua for not reporting anything during the game, if he felt anything.

    Off the bench twice he still had them driving with a chance to win and the second time it was with some of the worst offensive line play ever seen.

    Ultimately, players want to play. They are top food chain in terms of competitiveness. Additionally, millions and millions of dollars rely on their ability to stay on the field. You cannot rely on the player alone for reporting their injury. They should but never will.

    As the NFL is about to get fire for, "not showing injury behaviors or symptoms" isn't sufficient. The player isn't always going to wobble or show something very apparent. I'm sure the NFLPA is going to push for additional measures here, which as I was trying to explain to you yesterday needs amending. If a player who has ALREADY sustained a concussion (or 2) already in the season, and slam their head off the ground. They should be thoroughly vetted. I'd say this is where they'll go with this at the very least.

    Something tells me the truth will eventually come out when Tua sits down for his interview with Oprah. I'm not buying the team initiated this at all.

    NFLPA investigates us once more, where is the investigation on Kenny Pickett? More proof the NFL is rigged, or how else can you explain that we get punished worse for the Brady thing then the Patriots did for all their ****. Not only do you get more depressed with the Dolphins because of all different kind of things the NFL itself has more and more questionmarks then it ever had…

    I never said scrambled egg brains.

    Yeah, you are trolling. That's why you won't answer my question. What is the ridiculous expectation that I've placed on Tua?

    There was no obvious behavior to indicate Tua suffered any I’ll affect from the tackle we are all aware of now. In fact, when it was reported the other night that Tua was back in concussion protocol, all of the sports outlets were scrambling through the game tapes, trying to determine which play was the potential cause of his lastest concussion.

    If the union or leagues attempts to levy any malice against the Dolphins, I’m going to be livid! This wasn’t like Tagovailoa going down in the Cincinnati game…or the stumble during the outing against Buffalo…or any of the other “oh crap my bell got rung” lying on the turf for a hot moment before getting. Everyone had to dig to find THE play.

    Exactly, so why do they investigate at all? They didn’t do it with Pickett or Stafford. I‘m livid already because the NFL has become a real **** show with different measures for all the franchises and when I see how refs call the games that’s a whole other story in itself. Not that the stuff with Tua and the return to the same old Dolphins wouldn’t be enough…

    Well we became the example of the league.. ever since Tua got wobbled against Buffalo.. returned, and then his fingers seized against Cinci 4 nights later.. ima tell you right now, that this concussion issue is not going to be with just Tua.. it will stick with the dolphins so long as this staff (front office, coaching) are in miami.

    and i like Mcdaniels, i think he is having one hell of a first season.. but after the season is over, if he wants to survive in Miami, he along with the dolphins medical staff and front office will have to work with the NFL to be able to gain their trust again..

    we are a target at the moment. And say what you want to say… but the fact that we found out about tua’s concussion a day later.. im sorry but theres something off here.. this is the only team in the NFL that has had such a report a day later. It looks bad. And thats why the NFLPA has opened an investigation

    Good video on this stuff from a while back when Tua had his 2nd concussion.

    Tua basically now in that indefinite recovery period because he didn't take enough time after the 2nd concussion. This stuff is cumulative, and Tua really in a bad spot:

    I think I spelled out, Very Clearly, proof that TeddyB already showed that he's capable...but only if McD allows him to be.

    That's nice, but it doesn't change any of the facts, data, and case he laid out a couple months ago. He's a published concussion researcher. This is his area of practice. This played out pretty much exactly the way he described. You just here to troll though instead of bringing up a relevant counter argument. Nothing new.

    So what? Doesn't mean the information is it isn't correct. Do you have any opinion on what he actually said?

    For Tua's sake, I hope he's consulting with a neurologist and not a YouTube chiropractor from Canada who has never examined Tua in his life.

    Is it really that crazy to want to hear the opinion of the specialists who actually physically examined Tua?

    Guess what, he's going to get medically cleared again and it's ultimately up to him whether or not he wants to continue his career. I have a feeling you will be seeing him on the field sooner than later.

    The point I'm making is our receivers are so elite that any average QB can look great throwing to them ( so I'm told), so Teddy B will light it up Sunday , right ?
    Isn't that the way it works ?
    Very talented receivers and a mediocre QB is the recipe for success. Correct ?
    Surely TB won't struggle because our receivers are too good for that, correct??

    Side note.
    I thought you put me on ignore ??,

    Why does it have a bad look, nobody saw something except one guy on twitter, not the spotters nor anyone else. In fact McDaniel found it out while rewatching the game and told Tua to see a doctor, that's actually a good thing because he could have said nothing and that would have been a bad look. I'm sick of the NFL with their double standards.

    Hate to break it to u but Tua wasn't it exactly lighting it up the last 4 weeks as his 52 percent completion percentage will show and his 80.8 QB rating.

    I know that.
    But, how is that possible with the elite receivers we have ?
    When Tua had the highest percentage in the league posters here said it was minimal Tua and mostly our receivers .
    Now Tua's numbers dropped and its ALL him.
    See where I'm going with this??
    The same people who failed to give credit where it was due, are now criticizing him for the drop off.
    High completion pct.:
    Receivers.
    Low completion pct.:
    Tua.
    Just pointing out the hypocrisy.

    Once again let me explain that I support Tua but I'm not 100% sold he's the long term answer. Its the constant haters around here that are comical.

    Actually, since there are still receivers open, just Tua isn't getting it to them, then it's exactly in line with what they were saying before. It's the receivers not Tua.
