The Texans have to be the least-interesting/boring/unwatchable team in the league this year.

I fully expect the Bengals to crush the Dolphins with Tua, at best, playing an average game. Maybe a TD, a pick, and 200 yards or so at best.

Burrow's talent exceeds Tua's talent. Right?

A lot of people dump on him, but he hasn't had the greatest supporting cast since arriving in Miami, had a coaching staff that didn't want him and has struggled with injuries. All of this, aside from maybe the injuries (who knows) have been remedied. The addition of Tyreek could be huge, especially for Waddle on the opposite side. 

I'd vote for Tua to be a surprise player at QB this season.

That’s about it. They obviously added some nice pieces for him, but I’m not sure it will be enough to keep up in the arms race (no pun intended) that is the AFC.

I mean, that is just ABSURD. Then, you throw in guys like Carr and Tannehill who are strong QBs themselves. I'm not meaning to argue that Tua is a great QB. I just think that he has been dealt a tough hand to start off and his play reflects that. I think he has a chance to turn it around this season and shift the narrative.

2021:
Lawrence (17 games) - 602 attempts, 59.6% completion, 3641 yards, 12 TDs, 17 INTs
Tagovailoa (13 games) - 388 attempts, 67.8% completion, 2653 yards, 16 INTs, 10 INTs

I know Lawrence didn't have the greatest weapons, but he had Marvin Jones (still a quality WR2), 2020 first rounder Shenault, DJ Chark (but only played 4 games), and James Robinson. That's still better than some teams have had.

I'll be interested to see both of these guys this year since both teams upgraded the offensive weapons and also got new HCs.
JAX - Kirk, Marvin Jones, Shenault, Engram, Robinson
MIA - Hill, Gesicki, Waddle, Cedric Wilson, Mostert/Edmonds

(05-13-2022, 12:52 PM)Nicomo Cosca Wrote: No. Lawrence is a far better QB. Sometimes you have to just throw out the numbers and actually watch them play. Plus, he had one of the most toxic coaching situations in recent memory.

(05-13-2022, 01:22 PM)ochocincos Wrote: We'll have to wait and see then.
I guess I think Tua can/will be better than you do, and I don't think Lawrence is that great right now.

Doesn't mean Lawrence won't become great, but I don't think he's there yet.

Also, I'm not going to sit there and watch a bunch of games of Tua and Lawrence to make some "expert" determination.
I don't have the time nor interest.
So maybe my opinion is off, but I'm not going to invest that much time to change my opinion.

Expect to see Lawrence to be the better QB when all is said and done if they put a good OL and some weapons around him.

Tua might be better this year with all the Phins put around him, he better be or there is no hope for him.
