“They took away Tua’s running backs.

They took away his receivers.

They shuffled his blockers.

They even took away his position coach.

And somehow, Tua Tagovailoa still led the Dolphins to victory like a seasoned pro, completing 20-of-28 passes (71.4 percent) for 248 yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions and a 122.3 passer rating.”

Lets not forget he also rushed for 35 yards on critical plays.

Habib: Dolphins' Tua Tagovailoa steps onto big stage — and makes it his

Tua Tagovailoa's supporting cast dropped one by one, but he never blinked, rallying the Dolphins to a 34-31 win and proving he's equal to the moment.

That passer rating 122.3 is freaking exceptional. The kid did everything needed to win a big road game against a very good team with a great QB and receivers. Our defense, sometimes gives up long drives that result in TDs but when they had to, late in the game, they made huge stops. The calls against X were pretty bad mostly. He should have got 1 flag as I see it but the Refs are the guys with the yellow flags! Seiler, #92, is really showing up and 90 and 91 are awesome coming in from the DE position and 44, Roberts can flat out hammer people.
 
That long drive by Tua - It legit gave me chills. So good.

The way he reads the field, his vision is insane. Especially for someone starting their second game.
 
Tua after the game was talking about improving in a win lol

Murray after the game was being a little bitch mumbling and not saying anything about getting better

Safe to say which QB will be more of a leader for their teams going forward.

I noticed that as well. Kyler reminds of Cam after a loss. A pouty bitch. It’s good to be upset after a loss. It’s different when you act like a whiny spoiled brat.
 
This game couldn't have gone any better for Tua under some very tough situations. Tua came up big and showed more than enough "flashes of brilliance' that we haven't seen since Marino. There will be mistakes, I don't expect them all to go like this one but he showed poise, intelligence, accuracy, lightening quick release, leadership,class, and evasiveness in the pocket. He showed he has the "it" factor and seemed to relish the competition with the opponent.

Not throwing crap at any of our other QBs.
But that's defintely a throw I've never seen from Fitz or Tanny.

Sure those QBs have their throw selection. But this kid, so far, is showing all of us something.
 
The thing is....this is exactly who Tua is. It's who he's always been.

He shines in big moments. Makes critical plays at critical times. Smart decision-making. Knows how to win.

He's 56-7 since becoming a highschool QB. He has college records for passer rating. His first real experience was in a National Championship game against an elite defense.

I can't tell you how many people I've sung his praises to since we drafted him, but what we saw last night is exactly what I would expect out of our QB moving forward. He's got the special written all over him.
