Can't wait for the "sky is falling" if he has a middling performance.

Wait, yes I can.

People here already think he's a bust because he didn't start Week 1.

So yes, be prepared.

Rams at Dolphins (+3)
Tua Tagovailoa makes his first start against a Rams team that ranks 11th in defensive efficiency. The matchup up front will go a long way in determining Tagovailoa’s success. Miami’s offensive line ranks 30th in pass block win rate, while the Rams’ defensive line ranks sixth in pass rush win rate. It would not surprise me to see Miami’s defense keep it close, but the Rams produce a late turnover to cover.

The pick: Rams (-3)

Off topic, Tua’s brother just had 3 passing touchdowns, 2 rushing touchdowns to lead Maryland in a win as a 20 point underdog against Minnesota..

As I've said, I'm not overly confident in Tua and I've made that clear but I hope people dont react too strongly in either direction based on one game. Let's see at LEAST 4 games before we even start to pretend we know what we might have.

SWEET!!! Games going to televised in Seattle area so I get to watch on my big screen this week instead of the computer.

And Dark Knights letter must have worked cuz all of FL gets it too.

Wish that was the case. Tomorrow’s game is on Fox, not CBS and the Yucks are playing Monday night, so they’re pretty much bound the show another Florida team vs an NFC team.

That and since it’s Tua’s first start it’s going to be a ratings hike.

At least the Fox affiliate in Orlando decided not to screw Florida fans.

I knew there was a reason I liked Fox. :wink2:

Fox has better sound production between the networks, too. You really get the crowd on their broadcasts which I always enjoyed.

All the other instances feel a little neutered.

Perry being active today is very interesting. Expect a few gadget plays to keep the Rams off balance.

Keep in mind that with the bye week, there was plenty of time to develop stuff along those lines.

I just wish the game was on here in Philly. Stuck with Ravens/Steelers and GB/Minn.

The Tua era begins.

I wonder how long it will take today for someone to declare him a bust so we can have years of debates about it around here.
