A culmination of many things geo and this is something I’ve been adamant about and have talked about in this board since him coming out of college. No one listened until Tyreek hill called him a fat ***, still people swept it under the rug showing me photos of Mac Jones in college with his shirt off saying duhhh qbs don’t need to be in shape, what ignorance. First off, not training his body according to the genetics he has. Laziness to not do what is necessary to be a great franchise Qb not being smart enough to realize because of how he’s built needs to train harder then most in order for him to have the quickness needed to play the position. not evolving his game, in the offseason I outlined three things he needed to improve on as these key traits were not being shown in his game 1) He just needed to finally realize that if he doesn’t establish the threat of a run this then this a severe disadvantage.. he failed 2) He must sense pressure immediately as to where it’s coming from, hit the back foot and step up in the pocket to clear the lane for which to throw, he fails every game 3) train hard in the offseason to get as quick as possible. Huge fail this whole BS about protecting himself will not work as I’ve said as nauseam , you simply cannot play the position like that and win enough games, it was a ridiculous notion. And folks countered by saying I don’t need him to run just throw the ball away and play 17. Ignorance he failed at all if it and now its all coming g back to haunt him. it’s his own fault cause he doesn’t do the work required to be great period. He’s been exposed for everyone now to see.
I disagree in that you don't need to be able to run if you can read a defense pre snap. Go through progressions post snap. Move when pressured. And keep your eyes down field. I don't know that Tua cares anymore to improve in these areas. He's certainly regressed. Hopefully he's cut June 1. Just bite the bullet
