Nah, Tua's main issue is he never analyzed secondary options after his pre-snap reads. That's why he was bated in mistakes.
I agree that he needs to work on reading complex coverages, but don't act like his biggest issue down the stretch wasn't his lack of mojo and moxie in the pocket. Not to mention his ability to actually break off runs at will

I agree, He goes for the kill shot every single time. Works when no one is within 15 yrds of the WR.

My biggest concern with Tua is that he just can't stay healthy. Hopefully it was just bad luck this year, and not something that washes out his value as a player long-term

Jesus Christ man. This kid is gonna let you down big time. Already painting him more accurate than Brees, Brady, and Manning.

I agree with the first part but let's not pretend he didn't drop dimes into coverage.

I’m curious as to how you arrived at this and the Clemson metric. Did you have a medical form that calculated these percentages? Did Tua have one and tell you? Or are you just making this up to make yourself feel good?

60% of the time percentages are made up every time.

Hate to say it seems like a good kid. But, man I think he might be injury prone..

High ankle sprains don't heel in weeks, it takes several months to get back to 100% healthy, with zero contact or practice during that time.
Blaine Gabbert got one when Suh tried to break his leg in College, and it never healed,as he kept playing on it and it hurt his progression as he continued to play. He tried to over compensate and it changed his mechanics and he was never the same.

Ridiculous you have no idea what you are talking about. He is a fantastic pocket passer. Tua is far better than Lawrence and if we could have got some pressure on him that game would have been different.

I think the only time Lawrence was even remotely pressured was the first drive

You would be soft too if your dad kicked your arse every day

No saying he didn't, but was this widely known? I just figured he took off on his own a lot.

I said he is good in the pocket, when it is clean. You saw his accuracy take a dip the last part of the season, mainly because he played teams with decent Defenses. I still think that is why you didn't see Saban play him earlier last season. Saban hates turnovers.

Yeah but they got raped by a 4 loss big 12 team that got destroyed by Maryland and that almost lost to Tulsa

We have access to the Deer Antler Spray so surely we can get him some Viagra to remedy his "soft" problems.

irons puppet are you drunk again or back on the H ?

Yep the only difference between Lawrence and Tua is his OL protected him. He had all day long to throw.
