QB Tua Tagovailoa, MIA (1 Viewer)

Starting Tua with Daniels questionable. I think the Dolphins will feast once again.
On my way to the game. He should have a great game. Waddle and Hill both should go off. They have been itching to actually get a bone thrown to them.

Might actually see OBJ catch a a few balls as well. Thought about wearing my Giants #13, but then decided against it.
 
Putting him in over Murray now. Didn't realize Miamis defense is actually #1 against QBs and WRs in fantasy this year. I'll take my chances with Tua going against Arizona D than Murray against Miami.
Welp. Tua did ok but Murray of course had a day. Hope it doesn't cost me.

He looked sharp but man there were so many points left on the board with this game- red zone miscues and running tds
red zone requires more in terms of sharpness and timing. hes been away long enough that the timing likely isnt there. That always takes longer to return.
 
Tua might get back the "great white hope" River Cracraft. Those are Tua's words! He's been great at extending drives, but has been injured most of the last 2 years. He might return from a shoulder injury suffered on a nice Tua TD pass in the preseason. I think he's a better fit than OBJ, he plays all WR positions.

Miami is almost guaranteed to lose to BUF, Allen has been elite+ vs Miami, but Tua has been decent in some games. In the Sep game, the 1st INT bounced off a practice squad WR's shoulder, on the 2nd INT the Chosen one didn't complete the route. The last INT was a failed throwaway under pressure.

>>During the past two years, 16 of Cracraft’s 18 receptions from Tagovailoa have gone for first downs, and three have been touchdowns.<<

If Miami loses this weekend, anyone think McDaniel benches Tua for the season, or play him sparingly? Why risk another hit and probably losing him for good if they're realistically out of playoff contention.

Nope. McDaniel gotta be feeling the pressure. What we have seen when they don't have Tua is embarrassing and makes McDaniel look like he should be coaching middle school football. Tua is an adult. Tua decided he is good to go. You play Tua. You hope for the best. Imo

Tua Tagovailoa faced split-safety coverage on 93.5% of his dropbacks against the Rams, the highest split-safety rate by a defense in a game since at least 2018.

Tua was most efficient on passes under 10 air yards, finishing 17-of-22 for 135 yards and a TD.

Tua took one of the worst sacks I have seen this year at the end of the half. Second and 5 he drops back, instead of rolling to his left where no defenders were and throws it away he stays in the hashes and keeps going backwards and takes a 15 yard sack making it third and 20 instead of third and 5. Punt it away and give the Rams a FG right before half.

Not sure if it is the concussions but he sure does and seem as sharp in his decisions as he was before. Plus as Football Jones says..Tua is paid like an elite QB even though he is mid-level and injury prone.

Stafford reminded me of the Stafford from his Lions days. Throw the ball 50 times and lose
 
Next Gen Stats
The Dolphins used motion at their highest rate in a game this season (93.7%) with Tua Tagovailoa completing 27 of his 37 attempts for 268 yards and 4 touchdowns on such plays.

Tagovailoa's 4 TD passes off motion are tied for the most in any game this season.
