Against the Rams? Yeah, he sucked that game. No one saying he's a superstar yet, just saying Phins looking good so far.

If the Phins/Bills play a game for 1st place in the AFC East on January 3rd, that is going to feel like something taking place in an alternate universe.

Well the reason I said it was a good move had nothing to do with the results on the field for his first NFL game .

Regardless how this turns out it was the correct move and it made sense to me .

Justin Cruise seemed to me a little more results oriented on this move then me so I asked him the question if it makes sense to him now that he has seen results .

It made sense to me before his first game so I did not have to ask myself that question

Tua had a 28-10 halftime lead in his first game. He didn’t look that great but didn’t really have to do much in that game. Also, how much did people really watch of that rams game? Even red zone hardly showed that 2nd half.

I had said it seems like some fins fans would have been happier if they lost vs the rams but if Tua went off

Tua’s stats weren’t that great yesterday but if you watched him play yesterday, he passed the “eye test”

I've been saying this since before the season started.

Your Fins have a really good chance to win the Division, Knightro. Tua is going to decide that. Their Defense is the best in the Division. Your coach is exceeded only by Belichick who has a real bad team.

I'm rooting for Tua. Would love to see you guys win.

I think they have a REAL shot at winning the division and if not, making the playoffs.

but that’s it. No deep playoff run or anything like they and I’m fine with it.

kinda like 2008 & 2016. Those are the last 2 times they made playoffs but had no expectations once they make it.

the problem is they had disappointing 2009 and 2017 seasons and then sucked for years after.

I think this time is different.

the 2019 “tank campaign” made perfect sense and started IMMEDIATELY when they hired Flores after the super bowl. They used 2019 to 1) get rid of dead money 2) accumulate draft picks and 3) see which young guys can actually play.

next year they have the Texans 1st and 2nd round picks.

I’ve had season tickets in my family for over 30 years. Sucks that we deferred our tickets to next season. Oh well. Maybe we were the jinx? Ha

I hated losing Minkah but now kind of think it might have been best for everyone. Belichick has let some talented players go because they like to freelance and break scheme. Jamie Collins comes to mind. As much as I wanted to see them use Minkah in a similar fashion to how Pitt has he was becoming a problem. I think he's a very good players but not a guy you would build a scheme around.

Dolphins are around 3 points worse with Tua. I'm sure part of it is being a rookie but Gailey doesn't seem to open up the offense as much compared to when Fitz is playing. Next year should be fun when the kid gloves come off. Watching him his anticipation is so good. Please give us Waddle.

They should go back to Fitz at this point, AFC is wide open after KC and arrowhead won’t be the same with no fans.

Got Tua some experience but try to win the Super Bowl now. Even if it’s a long shot, that’s what you play for.

seems like if fins get 3rd pick, the fan base is wanting Sewell

i can’t wait to see this team with 2 more quality receivers and a stud RB
