Backup QB goes down 1st play, along with pro bowl tackle, and no Xavien Howard period. Being in it 19-17 was a surprise to be honest..... then the damn broke. Third string QB showed why he is third string. If he went down, a WR was playing QB.

Teddy had an elbow injury that somehow ended up with him in concussion protocol. Only QB put in it yesterday. Interesting.... Speaking of arm chair experts and eye tests, he sure didn't look concussed to me. Looked like any other player getting up after a hit.

Anybody see that roughing the passer call on Atlanta on Tom Brady that pretty much sealed the win for the Buccs? Protectionism much?

I'm more of a buccs fan but that call by the ref was ridiculous. It was just a good sack and the falcons would have gotten the ball back and a chance to win.

Clearly Grady Jarrett didn't get the NFL memo that it is 2 Hand Touch "Football" ONLY, if a defensive player must make ANY contact with Saint Tom of Brady. The preferred option is to not make any physical contact whatsoever and to simply knee reverently at his saintly feet

I still don't know the real story of Miami quarterback Teddy Bridgewater's removal from the Dolphins' game at the Jets after one offensive snap. In the irony of ironies, Bridgewater, Tagovailoa's backup, was tackled hard on Miami's first play and left the game for the locker room. He never returned. We were told the injury spotter in the press box saw in Bridgewater some ataxia; the QB was somehow unstable, per the spotter. In accord with the 20-hour-old NFL rule about motor instability - the rule that came into effect at 5 p.m. ET Saturday - Bridgewater was ruled out for the game. Maybe Bridgewater did stumble, but we never saw it. The Dolphins never saw it. CBS replays never showed it. ESPN reported he passed all concussion tests, but it didn't matter. Bridgewater, after one snap, was finished.

I had no idea they played on turf. If that become the norm, there won't be a player left on any field. That shit is brutal.

As I said, you didn't examine the guy and see just playing the part of an arm chair "expert". Both the NFLPA and the NFL came to the conclusion in the investigation that all protocols were followed and Tua passed them. As far as the doctor being fired before there was an investigation and having his integrity and name dragged through the mud, I hope he lawyers up and takes them for a few million. It was a knee jerk reaction based on optics, not facts.



... and Cole I was not comparing myself to a professional athlete (and frankly, that was a dumb fucking take), I was stating that severe cramps can take your legs out from underneath you. Anyone who has had them, professional athlete or not, knows this to be true. Even with the NFL changing the protocols going forward, Tua would have still be allowed to return because it was determined not to be neurological.


You can see the snap motion to his head was the reason for the loss of balance. We have all had cramps, they drop you to the ground and you grab them hoping for relief. It was apples to oranges with what happened on the field.

And sorry for being so blunt with the pro athlete comment. 10 days of the flu had me a bit irritable.

No worries, but get a severe cramp in your upper back and neck and get back to me

Tua came back and Miami won. 16-10 against the steelers. I fell asleep as the 2nd half was boring.

Let's see, found this on a dolphins site:

1. Tua just won the Air player of the week for the 2nd time (in 5 full games played).

2. Hill and Waddle have 5 of the top 10 receiving yardage games this year

3. Hill and Waddle have combined for 1688 receiving yards. 8 teams have less receiving yardage for their entire roster.

4. Tua is 12-1 in the last 13 games he started and finished.

5. Tua has the highest graded game of any QB in the NFL this year so far 96.8 PFF

6. Tua is #1 in rating 112.7, #1 in QBR 78.7, #1 in average 9.0/yds, #3 in comp% at 69.9, his adjusted yds/game would make him #3, tie for #7 in total TDs despite missing 2.5 games, #1 EPA, #1 DVoA, #2 air yards per attempt (no arm?)

7. Tua so far this season has the best 3rd down passing stats ever recorded in a single season since the NFL started keeping metrics in 1991.

2022 Tua Tagovailoa 142.7
1994 Steve Young 141.2
1999 Kurt Warner 137.3
2009 Aaron Rodgers 133.5

8. Tua has the highest comp% in passes >20yds in the NFL and is T-4th in total completions with >40 air yards.


Kid is having himself quite a year. If he stays healthy it looks like he can be elite. Now, only if the fins D can get together, they might be poised to make a run. Maybe adding Chubb will help.

Dolphins Defense has been playing pretty good in my opinion. They just got a great Linebacker pre trade deadline.
"The Miami Dolphins have tied up outside linebacker Bradley Chubb to a five year deal, the NFL team said on Thursday."

Bradley Chubb's best days are still ahead and the Dolphins can win the Super Bowl with him

Thank god for Tua balling out. The D was horrible again. If this team can fix the defense issues to be at least competent, the fins might make a playoff run.

Again, Tua is balling ..... this time vs the Browns. If he keeps this up, he is going to find himself in the MVP talk despite missing 2.5 games. 39-17 fins win, again, again, again, and again.
