I mean, he's QBing the league's #3 offense on points right now, and while he doesn't have huge passing attempts or yards, he is pretty durn efficient - 65% completions, 240 ypg, 12 ypc, 32 TD 7 INT. He was pretty good last year too when he won comeback player of the year. Which sort of says to me maybe it was some other factor amiss in Miami (I personally give it 4 letters ,starts with "G") Indeed. He is the type of QB that can do well with a great defense and a strong running game. He is smart and makes effective use of his limited passing game. He is not good enough to carry an average team or make the players around him better.

We were literally down there with Cleveland, and the jets. Tannenbaum straight up ruined us even worse than I thought could be possible since we were already ruined before that. That being said, we are sooooooooo much better than were were pre Coach Flo and co. Everyone is on the same page now. And its working. No doubt Flo has done a great job but Tua was his pick. I understand it's still early but outside of very good accuracy I don't see anything "elite" about his game and his injury history would worry me as well. He's not the biggest guy and has had a lot of lower body issues. Flo will turn things around but he's gotta live with that pick. Expect him to pick up a starting caliber vet at QB to compete with Tua.

I'm looking forward to a good rivalry between the Bills and Dolphins. That being said, I can not sold on Tua at all. He seems ... underwhelming to me, but he's a rookie. We'll see if he improved.
jimmy10 Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 Happy New Year to all our Bills brothers and sisters. May this not only be a year of good fortune for our team, but the first in a long string of good years. Be ready. It might be chilly.

Definitely doesn’t come close to matching the hype.

Which sort of says to me maybe it was some other factor amiss in Miami (I personally give it 4 letters ,starts with "G") Mostly injuries doomed him in Miami although Gase didn't help. The talent was always there which is why he landed a big second contract in Miami. His offensive line and weapons were pretty bad to subpar throughout his tenure there. He missed all of 2017 with the ACL tear and then lost his ability to throw the deep ball dealing with a shoulder injury in 2018. He got healthy and fell into an offense that played to his strengths. He's good and pry is in the 6 to 10 range if I had to rank him right now.

At least we have an explaination of what the Fins fan thinks that means, though. Captive cetaceans develop floppy dorsal fins (the reason for this is debated). I was thinking it meant the Fins were at least swimming in the ocean again and their floppy fins were now standing up properly

That said, I don't want to restart the "Fitzpatrick Cycle" in B'lo. In unfairness to your response, never seeing the field is exactly why Barkley > Fromm & of course, Fitz > Barkley. Fitz would know his role here, would never challenge that he deserves to start over Allen and would be a fantastic back up for us. Nothing has ever remained the same so there’s no ‘restart’. It’s all about the present. Buy him a 7 BR house in the ‘burbs and live out his days in WNY. His post football career would be set as a sports show host and he is more capable than any other back up QB playing today -assurance of continued team success, should disaster befall us. 5 1
Coffeesforclosers Posted January 1, 2021 Posted January 1, 2021 I'm thinking McD might surprise us here by being ruthless and playing the starters. Mostly to keep the Bills humming along in top form, but also to play up the narrative that Tua needs his bearded Binky from Harvard to hold his hand. I like the idea of recreating Kelly v Marino in Tua v Allen. But I want a scenario like Brady vs AFCE scrub of the week a lot more.
