I doubt it.....most of us posting here are present whether we are right or wrong......as opposed to those that only show up after a loss or when there is the potential for drama.
You do realize that it’s a TEAM game and not just a QB game. If it was all about just the QB, the Dolphins would have won multiple Super Bowls with Marino but they ended up winning none because they just never had a complete team while Marino was the QB.
Right newbie, there are so many 'good one's' available. Why do you think we had the likes of Briskett, Fitzpatrick, Dishwater, and Rosen? LOL Your advocating for a rebuild, which is asinine.
on this point i disagree. all owners meddle. to varying degrees. even the owners that meddle the least, when it comes to a 5 year and 250mm deal, at the end of day that one does not happen without the owner signing off on it. ross could for example simply say, he is playing out the 5th year option. ross obviously has not done that. sounds like tua is going to get his deal. question again becomes do they really believe in tua that much, or they just view this as the lesser of two evils. if option b, which i do not know to be the case, why would they be willing to settle for option b if that is what is going on?
well we will see. this is another big decision that will define the next 5 years for us. hopefully ross gets it right. at 5 and 250mm, end of day this is really his call
Except it does not have to be that way. There is a reason for rookie contracts to have a 5th year option that the team may exercise, which the Dolphins did for Tua March of 2023.
My reply was to the poster who proclaimed that Dolphins management is competent. I question that if 24 years without a playoff victory is evidence of management competence, how bad would the record have to be for him to declare incompetent management, 50 years without a playoff victory? 100 years?
ohh i agree with that, which is part of the reason for my question. they could just wait and have him play out the 5th year, but they are seemingly going to hand him the big deal now. so why the rush?
Seems like an example of stupidity to me, lots to lose with nothing of material significance to gain. If anything I expect the best chance of gain comes from playing a guy on his option year so that he remains hungry and motivated.
yes i agree. i dont want to give you a popsicle headache, but for an analytics driven team, i cannot make the math work. could tua have a year next year that makes him worth more than the 5 and 250mm they are thinking of giving him now? sure. odds of that happening (what % chance)? how much would it increase his market value above what they will give him now? odds he has a worse year, gets hurt again, etc and his market value drops after next year? roll out all the math, expected value, suggests make tua play out the 5th year option. expected value analysis tells me odds are after next year finishes his market value will be a lot less than 5 years and 250mm. I can live with the 10% risk of getting it wrong and tua getting somewhat more expensive. Or think of it this way, at $50mm a year there is much more room for tua to get cheaper than there is for him to get more expensive. He can maybe get $5-$10mm a year more expensive, but he literally could get $43mm a year cheaper. Baker Mayfield just got 1 year, $7mm for this past year. not saying it will get this bad, but you get the point, the salary risk reward is skewed hugely to the downside of $50mm per year
are you stalking me? no matter how many times you ask i wont send you any nudies!!!!
