I don't what ticks me off more, the fact that they're so full of **** or that they've actually made me appreciate the relative objectivity of Dan Orlovsky.

IDK if anyone will have the nerve to defend Mahomes after what transpired today. He gave the Raiders two touchdowns in seven seconds. There's nobody else to blame but Kermit for this one.

Loved Orlovsky's comment "You guys are acting like he is me."

Film first, numbers second. If the numbers don’t match what is seen on film, something is likely wrong with the numbers.

This is what people need to look at who are still not sold in this Qb

Study the movement, the Grace, the coordination, the manipulation with footwork, shoulders head and eyes

NOBODY is pkaying Qb like this, nobody

That’s why you should love our Qb, because we can build off this level of talent, such high level speed of process

As long as the OL can hold the rush long enough and give Tua a CLEAN pocket, he’s going to pick them apart.

The fact he has such a quick release will bide well for us.

Defensively, keep a spy on Jackson and blanket his receivers.

And not give Jackson a short field by throwing four INTs.

A lot has changed in two years* but we'll help our cause if we don't give up a 103 yard kickoff return to start the game, a 75 yard pass for a touchdown, and a 79 yard scramble for score.

The irritating thing about the Comeback was the fact that we had huge breakdowns that put us in that hole to begin with. We need Vic to dial up a winning game plan.

*EDIT: In ONE year. For some reason, I thought Tua's miraculous second-half was in 2021 instead of 2022.

Do the Ravens have a speed WR? DC loves to let them run free across the defense.

Zay Flowers is low 4.4

Holland is a huge upgrade over McCain

Tua has the smoothest feet of any QB in history. Dramatically underrated part of his game. You have to be a great athlete to do this.

I just saw the all 22 angle on the waddle bomb dime, angle that’s in front of the Los

Tua throws the ball with just peripheral vision to waddle while waddle is at the 20 yard line, waddle does not even know the ball is in the air, and he catches it at the 50, that’s some Majic **** man, you’ve got to see it from the front side angle on all 22, the anticipation and accuracy is not something I’ve seen to this level, this is special and some folks are running saying he didn’t play his best

Wtf man he missed a few throws who the **** doesn’t.

Tired of this freakin narrative even with our own fans

Dude is doing special things, don’t fall into the trap of not slowing the reps down to watch what he’s actually doing after the snap that noone else is

Sorry if I’m being a bit redundant but the fact that nooone talks about how he’s doing this with 4/5ths of his line out is just the icing in the cake

Freaking dude doesn’t even need a line to protect him cause he does it all faster deeper and more accurately than anyone in the game

The dude is throwing 55 yards no looks bombs, yup

I keep on saying this because I find it amazing. I am not shocked when a 40+ yard ball is not completed. Like, shocked. He throws one of the best deep balls I have ever seen.

Agreed, so need to contain him. I don't really want any speedy WR running across the defense without any restrictions. We have seen that too many times this year.

They don’t throw for a lot of yards, Lamar has 6 games under 200 yards. How that equates to MVP is a struggle in my mind.

He might not play. Two practices in a row DNP

There has been 1 throw all season that I can remember being shocked at when Tua went deep to Waddle and completely overthrew him (turns out it was a miscommunication). It seems like every other deep throw if the receiver runs the right route and doesn’t slow down (like Achane) then the ball hits them in the hands every time whether it’s 30, 40 or 50 yards downfield.

I watch other QB’s overthrow guys by 10 yards and give their receiver no shot at catching the ball yet Tua’s deep ball is nearly always catchable.

If you look purely at stats, wins, etc…common sense would dictate Tua’s MVP win but seeing how the NFL is evolving into the WWF, it’s not going to come down to stats and wins…it’s going to come down to the Super Bowl.

The ONLY WAY Tua is going to win league MVP is if the Dolphins win the Super Bowl.
