Consider what Tua did with the offense he had in 2018-19 and what Mac did with the offense he had in 2020. Mac put up better numbers with an inferior product.

Tua in 2019 was having a better year than Burrow before his injury. 2018 had better players, but a worse OC and scheme. Tua was much better than MAC, but never regained his original form.

Mac had a better offensive system under 2nd year sark.

Tua had 3 coordinators in 3 years and we didn't commit to running the ball while Tua's was here - think our OCs got too enamored with all the weapons at WR and Tua talent and didn't try hard enough to establish a downhil run game personally.

Without the pure cupcakes on the schedule

Tua relied more on his raw talent. Mac relied more on learning and operating within the system in both college and his initial time in the pros.

That has been a large part of the difference.

If Tua stays healthy and becomes more of a student of the game to go along with his better natural physical talents, he could be a really good pro.

But, he hasn't shown to be able to do either with consistency. As such, Mac grew into a better overall QB in both college and the NFL, IMO
