  1. great discussion as always guys
    but what i do not understand is how mike mcdaniel has that kind of reputation when the last time his passing game really worked was two years ago. the run game renaissance he started lasted for like 5 games against bad defenses until we got cooked by the bengals (32nd ranked defense) and the steelers, who got run over for multiple weeks until we played them. the passing game tape is HORRENDOUS, kurt warner broke it down and even a hall of fame quarterback has no idea what mike is calling there.
    jacoby brissett took the job of an established starter and played really well for a bad team, huntley is a capable back up for lamar jackson in baltimore: BOTH of them looked like they never played football before under mike mcdaniel.
    this offense only worked when the league had not figured out the concepts (now they are sitting on our routes, put receivers into brackets and linebackers under the route) and the best version of tua consistently hit perfectly timed windows with pin point accuracy.
    it was never sustainable and mike has still not adapted.
    aside from that we are constantly getting bullied physically (since training camp), are unprepared, undisciplined and collapse when the opponent makes successful adjustments.
    give him a new quarterback and we will talk about the same stuff on this channel in a year

  2. Quinn just seems like he’s doing a better overall job than Tua. It’s crazy to say it, but Tua just took a big dump for this season. So disappointing for fans, but Tua showed he really didn’t care about the fans or football to the extent he stated.

  3. Reason , NO don't allow McDaniel to get his QB1 because he's saying Ewer's is that because he's belaming Tua for the losses the Dolphins had instead of the rookies on both sides of the football and sure I get it Tua had those interceptions. McDaniel allowed a ROOKIE LG Jonah S. to play at LG instead of his natural position and have James Daniels play at his natural position with the Steelers !!! Not to mention them losing starting RT AUSTIN JACKSON and RG James Daniels !!! You had 2 starters out and a rookie learning the position and they were belaming Tua on losses and even Mahomes lost his RT & LT and lost the Super Bowl against the Rams that's 1 game Tua was missing his starting RG, RT, till 1 or 2 games before the Steelers game and had a ROOKIE LG that wasn't ready to start and they belamed Tua on losses and interceptions when he had the most pressures I've seen since his rookie and 2nd season and Tua got sacked most in his career due to his oline and his players who was helping block on the oline. Tua hasn't reached his ceiling at all. If Tua is traded it will be the biggest mistake the Dolphins will have ever made because if Tua gets behind a oline that's average or better than an average oline Tua will lead that team to the Super Bowl !!!
    Tampa Bay Bucs said Steve Young can't win and is washed up and traded him to the 49ers and Steve Young went and WON 2 Super Bowls and the samething with Doug Williams they said he can't win and is washed up and traded him to the Redskins and he went and WON a SUPER BOWL !!!
    THEY BOTH STEVE YOUNG AND DOUG WILLIAMS WENT TO THE HALL OF FAME AS WELL !!! THE COMMON THEME IN THIS IS THAT THE BUCS HAD NO OLINE AND THE 2 PLACES THEY WERE TRADED TO STEVE YOUNG AND DOUG WILLIAMS BOTH HAD OLINES THAT WERE AVERAGE TO BETTER THAN AVERAGE OLINES !!!
    ( Doug Williams also made history as well he was the first black NFL QB1 to win a Super Bowl ) !!! Tua hasn't reached his ceiling!!! If they trade Tua it'll be a HUGE MISTAKE!!! HE HAD 1 BAD SEASON OUT OF 6 SEASON'S SMDH !!! THAT WAS DUE TO PUTTING THE OLINEMEN IN POSITIONS THEY HAD TO RELEARN THEN starter Austin Jackson comes back plays a couple of games and he was doing ok and then Jonah started to play better as well and thats when McDaniel pulls Tua and puts Ewers in and McDaniel puts in the taller WR Tua didn't have ( Wease). Tua had all 5'10 WR's not 1 taller than that except the TE'S SMDH!!! EWERS HAS THE OLINE WHEN THEIR HEALTHY AND A TALLER WR ADDED INTO THE WR CORE AND CALLING PLAYS TO GET THE FOOTBALL OUT OF HIS HANDS FAST and with Tua McDaniel did that ONCE and that was with the Steelers Tua passed back to back touchdown passes really quick but then that was it !!! For people to belame Tua on losing those games and throwing all those interceptions all were his fault not true oline and who's helping out the oline out with their blocking !!!

  4. Webb/Simms, Duper/Clayton were kind of a once in a lifetime package. The records are there but who knows why the best tackle in football for over a decade gets overlooked. My guess is that he didn't appear in a SB with Dan but ask Bruce Smith and Co. what he dealt with.

  5. I’ve always loved the channel. Finally became a member! Sometimes we differ in opinions but for the most part you are usually right lol! What round are you taking a qb and what are you willing to give up if willing to give up anything to do so? And if you take a QB after RD 1 or 2 what are you taking in replacement in those RDs?
