Tua is not the Problem

Tua is hit VERY seldom. The line isn't the issue. He's just very fragile and doesn't seem to know how to fall down properly. He's like a small rag doll.

 

Second quarter, 2:40 left in the first half.

 

Not making excuses for him. I didn’t want him in the first place. More condemning Grier for drafting a tiny, injury prone QB and not giving him a good OL

 

The way you worded that was verbatim to what I was going to type. You Nailed It. That's the truth!

 

A small, weak-armed QB with a Wunderlic score 20 pts lower than the guy who is 'Central Casting' for Football God.

 

I know Im beating this 'Wunderlic score' thing to death but we keep seeing Tua do Stupid ****!!

 

Dolphins are going to milk this as an excuse for Tua's continued failure to process data correctly and act accordingly.

 

Leave it up to Grier and the Dolphins to **** up this decision, along with completely wasting the haul of draft picks we picked up from the Tunsil trade.

 

There are throws he just cant make, the trajectory of his throws always floats like a rainbow and the speed on that ball just isnt there for what we need to take this offense to the next level. A quarterback with a fastball would take this offense to the next level.. and it doesnt even have to be a strong fastball like mahomes or herbert.. arm strength comparable to Rodgers or even Brady would be enough.. tua’s arm strength is very below average

 

Yea he seems to fall awkwardly every time he is hit..
This dude if not done already is not going to last long in this league.To Fragile!

 

he is not durable enough to stand up to the physicalaties of the NFL. Lets hope he does us a favour and admits this and retires

 

I love how nobody here is blaming the coaches for what went down on Sunday. His head clearly slammed on the ground late in the first half and he wasn't right for the rest of the game. McDaniel was roasted for letting Tua finish the Buffalo game and he obviously learned nothing. Fact is Tua went out and played the entire second half with a concussion. We're all judging him on 3 ints while playing concussed when he came into the game with 5 all season.

 

What can the coach do if the player doesn’t say anything and there is no real signs of Tua having a concussion. For the Buffalo game he was cleared to play and wanted to return, if you wanna trash McDaniel for that you could do that with every coach in the NFL, it’s not like McDaniel is the only one who’s done something like that. Football is a brutal Sport, especially the NFL and it seems like Tua is just not build to take the punishment your body has to endure to play in this league.

 

If he was concussed that badly again, then we need to move on from Tua immediately.

 

This is what I was saying after his first major one this season.

 

After the scrutiny McDaniel was under for leaving Tua in the Buffalo game I'm just surprised he wouldn't take Tua out after seeing his head slam the turf like that. I didn't see it when it happened but I was definitely thinking something is way off in the 2nd half. He was totally different after that hit.

 

Pathetic that that play resulted in a concussion. Tua is far too fragile if that type of tackle is scrambling his brains.

 

Because it doesn't matter who's fault it is that he was still on the field, the problem is that Tua gets his brains scrambled on routine hits.

He's not getting leveled by Lawrence Taylor on these hits.

 

McDaniel was asked by reporters about Tua's status for Sunday's game in NE and he wouldn't rule him out. Is this guy serious? He should have been ruled out the second he told the coaches on Monday that he had concussion symptoms.

 

Concussion symptoms could mean he came into work with a slight headache. We don't work for the team and we aren't doctors. They could just be being extra cautious. Nobody knows anything.

Again, everyone on here and Twitter is diagnosing him with a concussion when in fact, he hasn't been diagnosed with a concussion.

I'm not advocating for him to play, I don't think he should, but let's just stop spewing misinformation as it's factual again.

 

After seeing the replay and Tua coming to the coaches with even the slightest of symptoms McDaniel should have already decided he's ruled out for NE. I thought McDaniel would have learned his lesson. The fact that Tua hasn't been ruled out yet is concerning.

 

He needs to retire.

 

It's almost like someone taught him to break his fall with his head. It's insane. He just goes limp when touched.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Kenny Pickett placed in concussion protocol on a Monday and played the following Sunday? Was Mike Tomlin SERIOUS??? Letting a player in concussion protocol play the following week??????

Ya'll need to quit being armchair doctors with your degree from Wikipedia and let those who are doctors who have their degrees and licensed be the experts to determine if someone is cleared to play or not. If Tua's cleared to play, then he's cleared to play. If he isn't, then he isn't.

 

For about 4 weeks I thought maybe just maybe this guy will be a franchise QB and I was wrong.
Go to back to my original assessment when we drafted him.Small,slow,weak arm and fragile!
Of.course.thanks.to.Florres and idiot Chubb trade We have no first.rd picks and no money to find a QB.
I guess Bridgewater will be QB in 2023.If.Tua truly has concussion I would think his family persuades him to retire especially with a new baby in the mix.
Good guy but not meant to play this sport.

 

Are you really that obtuse? Go back and watch that video. I've watched it at least a dozen times. There was no way for him to "break his fall". He was spun and tackled onto his back, causing his head to hit the turf.

 

That would explain some things.

 

Saw a play in Chargers game much like Tua's second interception except Herbert basically threw it past the LB, while Tua floated his into the defenders hands.

 

It makes the other team have to prepare for both QB's.

 

Tua should do Judo, first six months of judo is basically just learning how to break your fall while getting thrown or taken down without getting hurt, including breaking your fall correctly while falling backwards.

 

Dolphins I think will shoot for Rodgers or Brady. It's their best bet. I'm guessing Ross is done with Tua and just wants to win.

 

This doctor thinks Tua should not play again this season.

 

We don't have any money!

 

unless there were delayed symptoms, he should have said after the fall that he didn't feel right. We MAY then have won the game

 

If you don't think Tua's situation is different I don't know what to tell you. He had back to back concussions four days apart and the second one gave him a seizure. The league changed it's concussion protocol because of what happened to Tua and we're going down the same road again. I've had three concussions myself and it's no joke.

 

Here you go, that's how you break your fall while falling backwards. Most importantly you must keep your chin tightly tucked in and distribute the force of impact between your but, back and arms, not your head. Someone send this to Tua please, or enroll him in a Judo class.

 

There's ways around that with bonuses and restructuring. I'm more worried about the lack of draft picks than money.

 

Will.I just think it will be hard when u have the highest paid,Lt,Wr,Edge rusher and one of the highest paid CB.
2 of the 4 aren't worth a ****!

And.this is why Tua is 100 percent the problem as.alot.people said don't.draft.him.because he is fragile and.now.this.franchise is.put back years again.
Herbert without a doubt now should have been the pick.
10 years from now when Herbert is still.playimg.Tua will be an afterthought to.everyone except.dolphin fans wondering what could have been.
