MJS Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Easy drive for the Dolphins. Does anyone else think that Tua has a long wind-up when he throws? 1

NickelCity Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Early signs are definitely positive for Wilson in New Jersey. Hate it.

It looks like they are trying to hide Tua in that offense. Quick passes, run the ball, swing throws. Very simple throws where Tua doesn't have to do a lot. Eventually that style is going to let them down.

MJS Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Are they seriously going to put Waddle back in? Why would they do that? Just sit him.

The one long developing pass play they tried turned into a sack. I just don't see it with him. What is his signature ability?
Process Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 What are the Steelers doing playing Ben? Him and Tomlin have only been there 40 years together.

Agreed I have no idea what the regular season for the Jets will be especially when he plays a defense that actually cares…but if he’s just a functioning body that’s good enough for the Jets
HappyDays Posted August 21, 2021 Posted August 21, 2021 Tua throws a high pass that his receiver has to make a circus catch for, eliminating the possibility of YAC. Then he throws a low pass that Waddle has to dive for and it looks like it touched the ground so probably no catch. Both plays were simple NFL reads and throws that Tua just missed. The Dolphins have a QB problem.

The Dolphins have a QB problem. Yet it lead to a TD anyway 😆 Mention the other perfectly-placed 5-6 balls. Y'all try to find anything to nitpick against like every QB has to throw the perfect pass everytime. I get it though. Edited August 21, 2021 by DolFAN93

Yes the Dolphins starting offense scored a TD against the Falcons 2nd team defense. And they did it without Tua making any difficult throws. The one completion to Gesicki was pretty nice, he threw it right before Gesicki turned his head. Other than that it was all very simple short throws to wide open receivers. That works in preseason. I don't see anything that tells me Tua has corrected his issues from last year. 1

Blank Stare Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Squealers starting O looking good. Still mad they selected Freiermuth before we could.
MAJBobby Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Either Tua is really taking steps forward or Atlanta’s Defense is super *****. I am leaning to the later. 1

SCBills Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 Steelers starting O looks good. Ben looks healthy and Najee/Freiermuth making plays. Steelers starting OL is brand new so we’ll have to test it out early and often.. Ben does a great job getting rid of the ball quick though. 1
