Sports Twitter is what would happen if SECRant had 50,000 inbred cousins that got together and had a Meth party. Every popular tweet's comment section is people spamming different versions of the same tired troll post templates (_____ better, post a real sport, what does this have to do with Lebron). People used to get creative on ESPNs or other account's tweets but those have been completely drowned out by the spam

Tua's OL. Someone stated he got hurried 20 times on Sunday against the Jags.

quote:

Most hurries allowed in the NFL regardless of position:

1. Austin Jackson (29)
10. Liam Eichenberg (20)
10. Jesse Davis (20)

I’m not sure how it’s mathematically possible to have 3 OL in the top 10 in the entire NFL.

Great article on Mac. He's by far the best rookie QB, but imagine if his OL was just average. Same with Tua. Both are stuck with OLs near the bottom of the league.

Mac Jones Has Been Even Better Than You Think

I am admittedly a Mac stan, but I think by the end of his rookie deal he's going to be considered a top 5-10 QB. Give him a decent OL and 30 starts worth of NFL experience under his belt and he's going to be brutally efficient. You can already see him starting to figure it out more and more every week. He's making mistakes, but all rookies do that. The ones who turn into legit NFL QBs are the ones who don't repeat the mistakes.

His OL is just injured. If they all return and are healthy they will be okay. He doesn’t have many weapons though.

And Miami is once again undermining Tua. Reports they may trade for Watson this week.

I hope they trade him. Any employer shitty enough to want to associate themselves with literal human garbage like Deshaun Watson isn't an employer worth working for.

Wonder if they handicap DW like they did Tua last week. 5 starters out, 3 receivers. Bs

Thank can’t catch a break. He is always bashed on social media and across all sports media as well. If you google his name right now, it’s essentially a list of all the teams that “don’t want” Tua. Crazy to think that after two years in Miami behind a horrible line and a limited supporting cast, he is all of the sudden a poor QB now.

I don't get it. His college film is there. He was a generational talent. He had a potentially career ending injury. I don't get the impatient attitude for him. If you give him time to get back to himself you've got a franchise QB.

I don’t know? They NFL is weird, because your entire team can suck ie: dolphins and somehow it’s the QBs fault. Deshaun won four games last year and the excuse was “his team is really bad.” Do they think that will change when he gets to Miami? All this after a game on Sunday where frankly, Tua was likely the best player on the field for either team.

Tua is probably praying for a trade. Miami has no offensive line, no running game, no defense and no coaching. I'm going to laugh when they give up 3+ first round draft picks for Happy Ending. Tua has the talent... he'll flourish away from Miami like Minkah, Tannehill, Drake.

I'd like to see Tua go to Denver over Washington as far as the teams in rumors, but even Houston would probably be an improvement. Their OL is at least better than Miami's and he could hand off to Mark Ingram. Houston is bad now, but they could get better in a hurry with the high draft picks Miami will stupidly give away.

Miami the organization has treated Tua like crap ever since he got there.

Henry rushed for 3,567 yards over the last two seasons. Adding his 2,219-yard pace in 2021 would give him 5,786 yards over a three-year stretch, the most for any player in NFL history. He doesn't turn 28 until January, so the prime of Henry's career is still on the horizon.

Emmitt Smith (1991-1993) -- 4,762 yards (46 games)

I'm surprised by how few people are talking about Tua's hip injury and how it's impacted his career. Hip motion and rotation is vitally important in arm strength. I don't think Tua's hips have ever really recovered and hence the decrease of arm strength and his ability to throw the ball downfield. He could be throwing a simple 15 yard out and it looks like he's putting everything into the throw. Tua's just not the same player he was at Bama physically and I don't think he'll ever be that player again.

It's ironic that Fitzpatrick had an identical tackle and some of the same injury that Tua had. Yet no one is talking bad about him.

Fitzpatricks wasn't as bad an injury but he's been out awhile now.

I have no idea if Tua will make it in the NFL or not, but getting out of Miami would be the best thing for his career even if it means going somewhere as a backup for a few years.

I don't even watch the games anymore, but even looking in from the outside it's painfully obvious that the organization is probably the worst run in the league.
