What?!

Against MSU, Georgia, Clemson, and maybe to an extent LSU..... teams that could somewhat matchup with his god tier receivers (and nfl running backs) he was really average.

Teams of similar talent Clemson and Georgia specifically, he shite the bed.

I’m as skeptical of him as I am of Murray. Who knows maybe Murray will succeed in Arizona..... but man Baker Mayfield is going to get a lot of undersized qbs paid.

If you’re surprised or upset by that, I don’t know what to tell you.

Go argue with the folks who do this for a living. I'm sure you're smarter than they are.

The dude literally needed surgery during the Georgia game and that's the only game he was bad in


In the MSU, LSU, and Clemson games he was
59-97 (61%) 754 yards 5 touchdowns and 4ints

Not great but the narrative that he was awful is overblown

His knees won’t last the season. Gumps are already changing the narrative to “Just wait until his little brother gets here!!”

No Gump has ever said that. Taulia is decent, but he's Kyler Murray height without any of the accompanying speed or elusiveness.

Especially without Jalen to bail him out when he tanks.

No matter who you root for or which school you hate, not recognizing talent says more about you than it does about the talented person.

That's the equivalent of a ignorant Bama fan claiming Cam Newton couldn't possibly be first round NFL talent (at the time).

Sheesh, get over it.

Durability matters in the NFL. Just ask the Titans.

Tua doesn’t have it. That’s your answer.

You mean Drew Brees or Russell Wilson?

Hurt or not, that had nothing to do with his decision making in that game.

Tua was measured at the Junior pro day and his height is 6', weight 230 lbs. Height is the same as Drew Brees and taller than Russell Wilson. Tua's hand size is the same as Aaron Rogers & Peyton Manning at 10.13 inches.

A lot of Alabama fans won’t admit it, but Tua looked human against Georgia, Clemson and Mississippi State. Those were the best 3 defenses he played all year.

One knock on Tua will always be, what would he look like without the 2nd (arguably) best supporting cast in the nation?
