Tuaman*
Tua Man
Tua, Man!
*For those who aren't aware, when Eisen says, "It's is full name", what he is referring to is that 'Tuaman' is short for his full name - Tuanigamanuolepola. (And you thought Tagovailoa was a mouthful!).

I would love, at the end of the season, a complete anti-Tua montage from all of these so called "experts" who were critical of Tagovailoa getting the start.
I've only heard ONE apologize and admit he was wrong. -

We voice opinions, not facts. We’re all wrong at different times. So far it looks like I was wrong on Tua. Herbert still looks like the better prospect but I don’t care if Tua can be a good franchise QB and leader.AGuyNamedAlex likes this. -
Feel free to copy/paste my statement as needed- a few of you should make it your signature, LOL. It's very easy to remember being right and it's also extremely easy to forget about being wrong.PhinFan1968, xphinfanx, AGuyNamedAlex and 3 others like this. -

What was very impressive about Tua in the game was when, I believe it was his first or second pass and you could see how he clearly went though his progressions. He looked at his first read, then scanned right to his second read, then looked left and hit his third read for a completion. That was one of his strengths in college and he did it great on that play. Impressive.

I was strongly in Favor Of Fitz Staying the starter until there were signs that the team want trending downwards..
For me this has nothing to do with Tua.Hes gonna be great and most of us were all about his train..
My opinion hasn’t changed persay because Tua is always gonna be Tua. -
First, you want to know what you have in Tua before next year's draft — the last one on the horizon where we have a ton of picks early — and second, you want to trend upwards, not just not trend downwards. Fitz has a long history of leading teams to average or below average records, and that's just not good enough at some point (out of 12 seasons where he started 6+ games only ONCE did he lead the team to a winning record!).
We'd be 4-4 with Fitz right now and projected to go ~8-8 instead of being a serious contender for a playoff spot with Tua.Dol-Fan Dupree likes this. -
He wasn't even playing all that well. Not even close to his best as he was with the Bucs before he Fitztragic'd his job away.cbrad likes this. -

Maybe Tua's passes were lucky, maybe they were just that much better, maybe the defenses were worse, maybe he paid off the defenders with Pokemon cards. It is what it is.Phil Hutchings, KeyFin and Dol-Fan Dupree like this. -

The most important part of evaluating a young QB is his decision making ability. Just because a play turns out okay doesnt mean it was the right decision or you want him making that throw again.
Hes been a LOT better than I anticipated but we also shouldnt just pretend like hes been perfect. Hes had one forgettable game, one great one with a couple sloppy plays against Arizona and one average one this week. We've been outscored offensively in 2 of his 3 starts and had a lot of luck last week.
Luck isnt sustainable which is why we talk about it. -

I wasn't trying to evaluate Tua just sharing a stat which stands as it is.Phil Hutchings and Dol-Fan Dupree like this. -
That particular throw was a lot of luck, the LB just happened to not close his hands. I have no idea why he had them so wide to begin with, which I guess is why he doesnt play WR LOL
There is a difference between his throw and the throw you're trying to make in that scenario. It was much, much too flat and at least half the time will be a deflection at minimum. -
While a dangerous through, it takes a LOT of quick reflexes to make that interception. In fact, the linebacker made a mistake by going for the interception and not the deflection.
People are making that interception seem WAY easier than it actually is.Bumrush likes this. -
You never justify throwing a ball straight between a defenders hands IMO.
Like I said I'm happier with him than I anticipated overall. I'm not trying to pile on him.Sceeto likes this. -
Trying to get this video to work. I'm sorry but I cant justify this throw at all. That's an easy pick, I will say it now. -
