What happens if Tua Doesn’t Get Hurt?

[Straight Hucklebuck]

I think it’s closer to 27-7, maybe the Dolphins convert once.

 

But the Bills had contained Miami’s dink and dunk offense.

[Jay_Fixit]

Tua is just so average.

 

Bills win 67-0 if he stays in.

The NFL would have had to postpone next weeks games due to mourning ghe death of Tuna. He would have eventually left the game and delivered to the nearest hospital via a hearse.

I really think if Tua hadn't got hurt he would have ended up being attached permanently to AJ or Groot because they would have been in contact with him pretty much all day

Dolphins might’ve gotten on the scoreboard but the game would’ve had a lot more laughs.

I thought Brissett played pretty well except for the pick. The number of drops of good passes was ungodly. 

[FLFan]

Brissett is the best QB on that team. They looked better without Tua yesterday   Not saying much I know 

[Lofton80]

I think Brissett gives them a better chance to win.

I couldn’t care less...only reason I’m posting is because I figured I would contribute something since I got suckered into this thread...😉

I agree Brissett looked better than Tua, but I think Tua is sneaky enough to at least put a FG on the board earlier in the game.

Brissett got them into FG range a number of times but they always went for it or turned it over on downs.

I think Tua is a bad QB and he would have come out of the game even without the injury.  I also think he would have thrown at least one pick 6 before that happened.  There is just nothing special about Tua.  I would put him in the class of Peterman honestly.

[SlimShady'sSpaceForce]

The same result 

 

Tua hasn’t proved himself IMO

 

 

[billsherd]

35-0

What happens if Josh Allen goes 32/33 ?   Same type of question ..

If Tua doesn't get hurt yesterday it means he wasn't actually starting. He's made of glass.

[Nextmanup]

We'll never know b/c Tua did get hurt, and quite early! 

 

I think it would have been a different game, but with the same outcome.

 

Miami played terribly as a team and had breakdowns all over the place that went beyond QB performance.

 

 

[BillsVet]

Who cares?  Tua got hurt, he was behind a bad OL, and Buffalo won by a huge margin.

 

Still not clear why people agonize over hypotheticals.  There's plenty enough already to be concerned with.

If Tua didn't get injured, I think there's a serious chance he might have gotten benched. He looked lost out there.

Unless he got hurt on another play first.   Brissett is smart and incredibly tough.   He could survive under that pressure.  Tua couldn't.  Benched or hurt looked like his options.  

[Paul Costa]

Very little if any difference. Thank Jesus the Dolphins took Tua and not Herbert

Do you think the score is any closer or that Miami capitalizes on some of the empty 2nd quarter trips to the red zone?  

I know the sample size was small but it seems like Tua was a deer in the headlights and while his OL did him no favors I think his head was spinning with the free blitzes that were coming through

 

No, I think the score is more lop-sided.  Tua seemed to be really struggling understanding our D and leaving pass rushers unblocked off the edge.
