Can Tua handle the bright lights?

[ANUFan]

It's going to be intresting to see how Tua bounces back after the 49ers game.
As of now, IMO, Tua has a tendency to not perform at his best in "primetime" games.

The Sunday, Thursday, Monday night type stuff. Playoffs type games and beyond

He seems to shrink instead of blossom in those tough pressure type atmosphere.

Clearly, Collegiately he's proven he can do it.

But we need to see it at the NFL level...Consistently or close to Consistently!

As opposed to Herbert?

Which primetime games are you referring to?

Has nothing to do with Herbert.

Tua is and has always been my QB.

But we have to acknowledge he hasn't played his best ball when things get put on the national stage in the NFL.

Of course he can! I've been so used to us winning this year that last week is taking awhile to get over . But I do believe he will overcome this 1 game losing streak.

Again. Which primetime games are you referring to?

It's kind of a small sample size honestly. A lot of games "feel" primetime to us because they matter, but he has won a few. The Saints game for instance was a beatdown.

I'm with ya though. These spotlight games make me nervous, slightly less than previous years, but is what it is.

 

[Fred Bear]

It was just one game folks

And the Ravens game.(from last year)

Not sure which games the op is referring to.

Queue up the National Championship game and get back to us ...

 

[E30M3]

And the Ravens game.

Not sure which games the op is referring to.

That wasnt a primetime game. I went, was so shi*tfaced hammered I slept through the night game later from what I was told.

I'm talking about last year's game.

 

[Fred Bear]

I think we do better at night

 

[E30M3]

Oh, lol, yeah that was primetime! Had a party that night for it and the result was the same! Technically he didn't start so it may not show up in a stat search.

 

[Fred Bear]

We beat the Saints, the Ravens and Squealers on prime time recently

I am not going to say prime time games it’s more so games of importance and it’s not the fact that we loose its his performance is the issue. Buffalo game in 2020, Titans game in 2020, 49ers game this game. Next week have the Chargers and then Buffalo, I would love to see us win but the importance is how does he play.
